To-morrow the Democratic voters of San Francisco will say whether they | | intend to have a voice in the party’s ! affairs or whether they will continue to | be manipulated by a few men in a back | room. I feel confident the voters will| | insist on taking the control of the party| | ! into their own hands, and in this strug- | | gle the Democratic League represents| | this movement for party independence. The Democratic League is the out- growth of the general demand that loyal Democrats shall no longer be ig- nored in the councils of the party. Its first insistence is that the driving of | Democrats out of the party must stop. We want equal rights and equal oppor- tunities for all who are loyal to the| party and true to the Democratic faith. We charge Gavin McNab with usurp- ing the position of leader and then ig- noring the Democratic voters. ! What body of Democrats ever elected | him to leadership? Where was the| | meeting held? How many votes wert | cast? What was the title given him?| There was no meeting; there was Do | | election. Then how did Mr. McNab | come to be the boss of the party? His | ition was not given him. He took it. | | Now the Democratic League asks that | | the matter of leadership be submitted | to the Democrats of San Francisco, and | not decided offhand by Mr. McNab. Mr. McNab and his followers have lled me 2 boss. Iam not. I have no bition to be a boss. But a year ago Pen meeting was called at Pioneer Notices were printed in the pa- g of that meeting and its pur- he Democrats who gathered O’BRIEN. TO START SOME- ‘rm\G AMONG DEMOCRATS.

The purpose of injecting my personality into the contest is to obscure the fact that the Democratic organization has produced honest and efficient men in office to whose worth the voters testify by increasing ma- Jjorities. I am no part of the organiza- tion. I am its friend. 1 admire its ag- gressive honesty, which is not exampled | in any similar organization in America. That organization was chosen by a con- vention elected at a primary under the law, where every man had a right to run as a delegate and where every man had an opportunity to vote. The organ- ization had its being in a primary when its opponents who are making so much noise in the Examiner ran a ticket in every district. The enemies of the or- ganization were defeated by the Demo- cratic voters, That organization stands for cleanli- ness in politics. If it is true that you know men by their works, then the local Pemocracy has only to point to the men elected during six years. Those now in power are: Washington Dodge, Assessor; Peter J. Curtis, Sheriff; Dr. T. W. B. Leland, Coroner; Edmund Godchaux, Re- corder; L. F. Byington, District At- torney; Wiliam D. Hynes, Public Ad- ministrator; Supervisors H. U. Bran- denstein, Dr. A. A. d’Ancona, John Connors, James P. Booth, George B. McClellan, Edward Rock, Oscar Hocks, Samuel Braunhart, Henry Payot and A. Comte Jr. Superior Judges—Frank J. Murasky, | James V. Coffey, James M. Seawell, Frank Dunne, William P. Lawlor. Police Judges — Alfred J. Fritz, Charles T. Conlan, Edmund P. Mogan and George H. Cabaniss. | _These are the exhibits which the or- ganization places before the people in proof of its character. When the municipal administration now in office will have completed its term the Democracy will have con- trolled the legislative power for six years. In that time no Democrat on the | board has failed in his duty. Neither | malice nor partisanship has dared be- smirch a single name. No other city in America has such a record. Honest officials cannot be procured ‘h'om other than an honest organiza- tion. Figs cannot he gathered from | | thistles now any more than in the| | ancient time. je | - The people have voted overwhelming- ly their confidence in the present of- ficials. Why then aim to destroy an | organization that produces such re-| sults? Why should such an organiza- | tion be opposed? The answer is plain. Although the| people at large immensely profit by /| honest government, there are classes| that lose. Corruption has been limited | to places beyond the reach of the Su- pervisors. The larger forms of cor-| ruption can only be successfully ac- complished by having control of the legislative body. These have been im- possible for six years. If the regular | organization could be overthrown by the graftsmen, not one of the men who have so nobly upheld public honor on | | the Board of Supervisors would ever | again be nominated. - . 3 Francis B.

Lamont, referring to the gubernatorial nomination, and makes the conclusion irresistible that he will not decline the nomination for Governor if it is tendered him. “Really.” he continued, “I know noth- ing about this use of my name in con- nection with the Governorship exceptv what I read in the newspapers.

Because she could not get mor- phine, Mrs. Maud Cloud partially as- | phyxiated herself with gas in her room at 33 Fifth street. Tony Bozen, who occupied an adjoining room, was also affected by the fumes. He woke wn.n Jjust strength enough left to sum- assistance. The two were re-) mwed to the Central Emergency Hos- | pital, where they were revived. Mrs. Cloud is a recent arrival from Salt Lake.
