The indelible records clearly prove hat Caminetti, as a member of Con- ess representing the old Second Di trict, went out of his way in a churlish and narrow minded style to defeat a} measure appropriating a large sum of | Mr. Gillette will are money for the improvement of Eureka | harbor. Humboldt County never can bave any use for Caminetti. It is the | judgment of well yrmed politicians | that Caminetti's popularity in the Dem- ratic party has vanished. At Santa Cruz he allied himself with an unpopu- ar faction of his own party and the sders of the other faction are giving him the cold shoulder. | There is a happy feeling at Repub- lJican headquarters over the result of registration throughout the State. The increase is mainly in Republican coun- | ties. Los Angeles comes forward with marvelous gain. The registered strength | of the county exceeds 62,000. Judge Mc- | Kinley's prediction that Los Angeles | will give 15,000 majority for Roosevelt | may be verified. George Stone, chair- man of the Republican State Com- mittee, is elated over the local regis- tration of 82,000. He is making no pre- dictions, but he entertains the belief that Roosevelt's majority in this city | will astonish the natives. FAIRBANKS AND DOLLIVER.

THIRTY-NINTH DISTRICT. The Independent Republican Club of the Thirty-ninth Assembly District has adopted resolutions commending the Merchants' Association for its work in exposing ballot box stuffing. There is taik in the district in favor of nominating an independent Repub- lican to oppose T. E. Atkinson for the Assembly. Wallace Bradford, Marshal Hale, Edwin T. McMurray, Edward Ginley, D. L.

O'Rorke are active mem- | bers of the independent organization {in the Thirty-ninth District. TR | HAYES STARTS ACTIVE WORK. Central Executive Committee Organ- izes in Fifth Congressional District. | The central executive committee for | the Hayes campaign, consisting of rep- resentatives from the Assembly dis- tricts composing the Fifth Congres- sional District, met at Republican headquarters, 16 Geary street, last night and perfected an organization | and plans for an active fight on behalf of E. A. Fayes of San Jose. Repre- | sentatives from the various Assembly districts appointed temporary officers, who in turn conducted the business of permanently organizing the Hayes campaign committee. After electing its officers the com- mittee authorized the chairman, John ‘W. Rogers, the Civil Sérvice Commis- sicner, to appoint a committee of five from each Assembly district, each committee to include one district Con- gressional committeeman, for the pur- pose of communicating with influential men in each district, in order to or- ganize local Hayes clubs. The following officers of the central executive committee were elected by the representatives of the Assembly districts comprising the Fifth Congres- sional District; Chairman, John W. Rogers (Thirty-seventh District): vice presidents—P. J. Mahoney (Thirty- second District), F. G. Huskey (Thir- ty-fifth District), Joseph Tuite (Thir- ty-fourth District); secretaries—James /F.

He also said he would endeavor to con- vert the labor union men to Repub- licanism and carry the Republican standard to success on November 8. Postmaster Arthur G. Fisk sug- gested that the voters in the Thirty- sixth and Thirty-seventh Assembly dis- tricts be thoroughly instructed in the use of the voting machines, so that no votes should be lost through failure to properly aperate the machines. ~ After short speeches by many dis- trict representatives. the question of | District Is Now Assured. where to locate the heaflquarters for Hayes campaign was postponed nr:til the next meeting of the commit- tee.

NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—Judge Par- ker will not return to Esopus until to- morrow afternoon. Among his callers to-day was John Bogart, prominent as a labor leader. | Bogart had visited Judge Parker at his home at Rosemount and called for ; urpose of continuing a discussion ing on the relation of the Demo- 4 party to organized labor. Indicative of an effort on t of Judge Parker to unite both fac- tions and bring together individuals i whose personal differences might in- terfere with harmonious work for the national ticket, his callers during the three days of his present trip to New York have included representatives of every wing of the Democratic party. In this connection conspicuous among those who visited the candi- date to-day were Dr. John H. Gard- ner, who has been the host of W. J. Bryan whenever he came to New York, and Alexander Troop of New Haven, who served as chairman of the Conn ut State Committee and con- ducted an enthusiastic campaign for Bryan four years ago. The incident that has created the most notable comment was the meet- ng between Senators Gorman and Rayner of Maryland, accompanied by an announcement from their close po- litieal associates that whatever differ- ences heretofore existed between the ryland leaders have been dissipatd, | at least so far as the present campaign is concerned. Former Representative Ben C. Ca- ble of Illinois, who called on the Judge, is nother whose coming is said to mean a unit of effort from op- posing organizations of the Illinois Democracy. PR T2 AT, FEEL SURE OF THE WEST. Republicans Will Devote Attention to the Eastern States. CHICAGO, Sept. 29.—Belleving that the campaign is virtually won in the West the Republican national man- agers are planning to devote most of their attention to the Eastern States after the middle of October. Announce- ment was made to-day that all dates scheduled for Secretary of War Taft in the West after October 20 have been canceled, and that he will be trans- ferred to the East. The same course will be pursued with other prominent under the direction of the National Committee. Of course, if later developments show that the Democrats intend to make a more aggressive fight in this section the Republicans will change their plans The plan is said to have !fnnn the rear platform of the Edge- i he part| LICANS MAKE GAINS IN STATE REGISTRATION: ROOSEVELT'S RUNNING MATE WELCOMED AT SPOKANE Fairbanks’ Arrival \ SBPOKANE, Sept. 29.—From Helena, Mont., to Spokane, Wash. Senator Fairbanks traveled to-day, crossing the northern point of Idaho en route. The day was more marked for its de- votion to sightseeing than to speech- making, and the striking beauties of the Bitter Root and Cabinet ranges, as well as the swiftly flowing Clarks ford of the Columbia River and the Pend | @'Oreille Lake, were fully appreciated by the Vice Presidential candidate and his colleague, Senator Dolliver. In Idaho the train was stopped at Sand Point and Rathdrum for speeches and at both places the talking was more. Sand Point being an important | lumbering point, Senator Fairbanks } devoted his remarks largely there to 1 discussion of the duty on lumber, contending that Republican policies ! are necessary to the proper protection of that industry. “He made no refer- ence to Senator Bubois' challenge to discuss polygamy.- at the stopping places in ldaho, but at Sand Point spoke in praise of Senator Heyburn, saying: “You have done well by sending Heyburn to the Senate, but you would de better by sending another Repub- lican to sit with him.” The Spokane committee met the Fairbanks' train at Sand Point. The | committee consisted of a number of | the leading Republicans of Spokane, including Mayor Boyd and State Sena- tor Crow, the latter a former class- matter of Senator Fairbanks at col- lege. United States Senator Ankeny was also a member of the welcoming party as a representative of the State at large. The party arrived in this city at 5:30 and at 8 o’clock the Senators were edcorted to the Spokane Theater by a number of marching clubs. They en- countered an ppposition demonstration on the part of the Socialists, whose candidate for President, Eugene V. Debs, spoke in another theater in the city during the evening. ’I‘AI‘AKS OF ISLANDS. In his speech to-night Senator Fair- banks made an exposition of the Re- publican policy in the Philippines, his leading topic. He also discussed the tariff and urged a continuance of the Republican policies as necessary to the welfare of the people at large. On the Philippine question he said: One of the unexpected problems we have been obliged to deal with since the last Demo- cratic administration was the Spanish-Ameri- car war. It was entered upon reluctantly and only when' diplomatic appeals to Spain were unavailing. It was entered upon in the name of bumanity and by command of the volce of Christian civilization. We departed from the ways of peace with no thought of terri- torial aggrandisement or commerclal exploit- ation. The close of the war found us face to face with new duties. New responsibilities were unexpectedly imposed upon us, but we have had the capacity and the national honesty to meet them with humane and resolute pur- pose. We have met them in a manner to strengthen and not to subvert our republican ipstitutions.

It therefore be- | came necessary to organize an over- flow meeting. This was held at Elks’ ! Hall and was well attended. Senator Fairbanks paid no attention in his| speeches to a challenge for a joint de- | bate from Senator Dubois. Senator Foster joined the Fairbanks party here and he and Senator An- keny will make the tour of the State with the Vice Presidential candidate. 5 gl e as) McKINLAY AT WOODLAND. Rousing Reception Tendered Congres- sional Candidate. WOODLAND, Sept. 29.—The splen- did tour of D. E. McKinlay and Hon. James McLachlan through the Second Congressional District brought them to-day to this city, where to-night they addressed a meeting that thronged the opera-house. Much enthusiasm pre- vailed and the eloquent speeches of both orators were given the ¢losest at- tention by the great audience. The addresses were confined mainly to na- tional issues, McKinlay referring inci- dentally to his own candidacy for Con- | gress, the prospects of which grow brighter every day. | In Colusa last night a prominent resident, who has heretofore been an ardent supporter of the Democratic nominee, announced his adherence to McKinlay and further showed his sup- port by inaugurating a movement for the organization of a Duncan E. Mec- Kinlay Club: The enthusiasm is also high in Yolo, where the Republicans without regard for local differences are working to a | man for the election of McKinlay and | also to carry the county for Roosevelt. | The Democrats here are dispirited, | many of them having failed to reg-| ister. | o +- 2 SENATOR HOAR IS DEAD Continued From Page 1, Column 6. rns for 1904 place the fig- turns from the registration thus far received indicate that the total vote for Kern County will be about 6000, which is as great as that booked two years ago.

The falling off is not confined to any particular pre- cinct, but is general. sl il Rhode Island Democrats Name Ticket PROVIDENCE, R. I, Sept. 29.— The Democratic State convention met here to-day and nominated Presiden- tial electors and the following State ticket without opposition: Governor, Lucius F. Garver; Lieutenant Gover- nor, Adlare Archambault; Secretary of State, John H. Keenan; Attorney General, George T. Brown; Treasurer, Edward M. Walker. Edward M. Sul- livan was nominated for Secretary of State, but declined to accept on ac- count of ill health. i ste s 2 Delaware Republicans Disagree. WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 29.—The warring factions of the Republican party in Delaware made a vain effort to effect a compromise on a State —e ] Virginia institution, William and Mary State Senate. In 1868 he was elected a Representative to the Forty-first Congress, and re-elected to the three following Congresses, but declined a renomination to the Forty-fifth. At the next session of the Legisla- ture (1876-77) he was chosen United States Senator to succeed George S. Boutwell, and took his seat March 5, 1877. In the national senatorial hall he remained until his death, being re- elected almost without dissent in 1883, 1889, 18956 and 1901, the last term not expiring until March 5, 1907. In both houses of Congress his fig- ure and work were forceful and nota- ble. As illustrating his standing as a clear-minded lawyer it may be men- tioned that he was chosen one of the managers of the impeachment trial in 1876 of Mr. Belknap, Secretary of ‘War, and also,a member of the elec- toral commission of the same year that gave the Presidency to Ruther- ford B. Hayes. His experiences in State and national political conventions were strong trib- utes to his fairness and ablility as a- geverning officer, He was chosen to preside over the Massachusetts State Republican Convention in 1871, 1877, 1882 and 1885, and over the Republican National Convention at Chicago in 1880. He was a delegate to the National Con- vention of 1876 at Cincinnati and to ticket to-day. Both the Dupont, or regular Republicans, and the Addicks, or Union Republicans, held their con- ventions and nominated separate tick- ets with the exception of Presidential electors, which are the same. The hitch is over the choice of a candi- date for Governor, each faction in- sisting that it shall have the naming of the candldate. —_— Registration Is Heavy. bod:; Registrar Adams reports a total | dent and vice president of the Ameri- registration of 82,400, including 4997 | can Antiquarian Society; long a mem- last day of registration on ber of the Massachusetts Historical So- for the ‘Wednesday. ——————— Excursion to Willits.

Those who say Senator Hoar was narrow and partisan are referred by his friends to the time when, having a Republican majority behind him in| committee, he made & number of re- ports in favor of Democrats, either sit- ting members or contestants. In one instance, Throckmorton of Texas, the Democratic claimant for a seat, was indorsed favorably by Mr. Hoar. Not| long after Throckmorton was out of Congress a newspaper in his district denounced Hoar as a bigoted partisan. Throckmorton wrote a letter to the| editor, which was published, defend-| ing Hoar and alleging that he was not well known in the South, or such criti- cism of him would never have been made. Senator Hoar was made unppoular in the North at one period by two inci- dents in which he strongly favored Southern interests and prejudices. Dur- ing the war the William and Mary Col- lege buildings were burned, not direct- | 1y by the connivance of Union generals | but, as generally understood, by care- | lessness. Mr. Hoar advocated warmly on the floor of the House a bill to pro- | vide $20,000 indemnity, but was never able to get the appropriation, al-| though he was successful in arousing | a feeling of great bitterness in New England. The second incident was his advocacy of the restoration of Fitzjohn Porter. General Grant approved his course, but New England did not. Some years ago_in Washington, in the hearing of a Worcester man and one of the then proprietors of the Bos- ton Herald, Senator Blackburn of Ken- tucky, in the cloakroom of the Senate, | said, in remarks of congratulation that Mr. Hoar had been re-elected: “I be- lieve Mr. Hoar is the broadest man in the Senate.” Senator Hoar's wit was keen and searching. If one were to specify that quality of the senior Senator which en- deared him to the old members of his | party and compelled the admiration | and deep sympathy of the young men, he would name his humor. His wit was never boisterous nor comic nor that of a buffoon, but delicate and clean, founded on standard compari- sons and lasting beyond the fleeting moment. His scrupulous regard for honorable dealings in his public office was widely known. His code allowed of the recep- tion of not even simple courtesies from corporations who deal with the public. A few years ago, in a railroad trip from New York to Washington, he occupied a seat with one of the great railroad managers. When the conductor came along, Senator Hoar presented the reg- ulation ticket to be punched, to the surprise of his companion, who prom- ised to send him a pass at once. The pass was sent, but returned to the giver with a note of thanks. t A notable thing in connection with his terms as representative was his service on a special committee on claims and on elections. He was never chairman, but invariably prepared the reports. Many were leading cases and are cited to-day both here and in the British Parliament as down the law in election cases. His lack of familiarity with even old _acquaintances, often attributed to coldness and austerity, ‘'was owing to a natural shyness, which clung to Him through life. His mind, naturally re- trospective contemplative, was ADVERTISEMENTS. e e Sailor Suits As Pictured 2 If you will come to our store t a $5.00 Sailor Suit for $2.85. 85 o-day or to-morrow we will sell you The suits are made of blue serge, guaranteed for color and wear; each garment is neatly trimmed on collar and shield; the ages range from 3 to 8 years.

The extent of his willingness to oblige friends was unlimited. He had abso- lutely no reserve due to pride, vanity, or the aristocracy of family. He would talk to a street laborer in overalls as respectfully as to the President of the United States. His charities were un- ostentatious—indeed, his payment of education for two young colored men, | as a recent instance, was known not even to all his relatives. He was not rich, and the pecuniary amount, of his charitable expenditures was a consid- erable tax. His family affections were extremely strong, not only as far as his immedi- ate relatives were concerned, but all his kindred. He liked to discover some | distant relative and speak affectionate- ly of him as his cousin, or whatever the relationship might be. : —_———————— BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 29.— Hon. Thomas E.
