SACRAMENTO, Oct. 4.—Senator Fairbanks turned his face eastward to-day and started upon his return trip | from the Pacific Coast, but, although | a considerable distance was covered, he | did not get far on his way. The day ! was spent skirting the southern shore | of San Francisco Bay and in traversing the fruitful Santa Clara, Livermore and San Joaquin valleys. Stops for speeches were made at Palo Alto, SanJose, Liver- more and Stockton. Senators Fair- banks and Fulton made speeches at all | these points, as they did alsc here to- i night. At San Jose and Stockton they spoke from the Court House steps and | at the other two places from the rear platform of the Edgemere. All speaking places commanded views of semi-tropical vegetation and the tem- perature did rot fail to perform its share in maintaining the illusion that the party w in the far southland, for the heat was intense all day. At Stockton was held the largest and one of the most enthusiastic meetings of the day. The meeting here to-night was pre- sided over by Governor Pardee and was large and enthusiastic. Both Senators Fairbanks and Fulton spoke and both gave attention to the general issues of the campaign. Senator Fairbanks dwelt especially upon the currency question, claiming much credit for the Republican party in its efforts to main- On that point he the | said in part: Go back to the Civil War.

It was a work of great difficulty under the circumstances. The Republican party dedicated itself to the supreme duty of firmly establishing the financial credit of the Government and improving the money of the people. It has alwaye known that the highest commercial prosperity and the great- est national development could only be ac- complished by adhering to sound and wise monetary laws. It funded the Government debt, reduced the high rate of interest pre- vailing during the perfod of the war, and by oing saved millions of dollars to the 1896 we were confronted with the ques- fon of the debasement of our money.

Fairbanks and party arrived here at 8 o'clock this morning and was run on a siding, where probably 2000 people had gathered to welcome him. The right of way was packed for two blocks by the crowd. Fairbanks was introduced by Marshall Black and spoke for ten or fifteen minutes. He was pleased, he said, to visit this splendid valley, which for centuries to come would be a center of influence and higher civilization. In his trip across the country he had found the | people everywhere contented and | prosperous. ‘ Charles W. Fulton of Oregon spoke for five minutes on the benefit of lofty | ideals and a liberal education, so well represented by President Roosevelt. Fairbanks was conducted from the train to the Phi Gamma Delta frater- | nity house, where an informal reception was held. There were present Dr. Jor- dan, Professors Stiliman, Gilbert, New- comer Marx and Elliott and thirty or more fraternity boys. Senator Falr- banks is national president of Phi Gamma Delta, and it was due to the efforts of this fraternity that he was induced to speak here. A drive to the university followed the reception, including a visit to Memo- rial Church, and at 9:30 o'clock the train left for San Jose. The visitors were in charge of Colonel Randell of San Francisco, and BE. F. Woodward of Sonoma was one of the guests. i S B s AT SAN JOSE. Fairbanks Speaks From Courthouse Steps to Large Crowd. SAN JOSE, Oct. 4.—A large and en- thusiastic crowd greeted Senators | Fairbanks and Fulton and party this | morning. They arrived about 10 o'clock from Palo Alto and were met at the depot by a reception commit- tee, headed by E. A. Hayes, the Re- publican nominee for Congress in this district, and the Fifth Regiment Band. While the party was being welcomed Amy and Roy Bogert, two pretty little children of Gilroy, were lifted to the platform of the car and received by Senator Fairbanks. Miss Amy pre- sented the Vice Presidential nominee with a handsome album filustrating the fruits and flowers of the Santa Clara valley. The Fairbanks party was escorted to carriages, and headed by the band, was taken to the courthouse steps, frcm which Senators Fairbanks and Fulton addressed several thousand people who had assembled to greet them. The speakers’ stand was directly op- posite the McKinley monument, which marks the spot where the lamented President addressed the people when he visited San Jose. E. A. Hayes was chairman of the meeting. Fairbanks was greeted with applause as he as- cended the courthouse steps. Senator Fairbanks stated that four years ago he had visited San Jose in behalf of Republican principles and in support of the election 'of one of the greatest of Americans, the third mar- tyred President, Willlam McKinley. He said he was gratified once more to be here and he had noticed a great advance in the incomparable richness ualed and uneq beauty of the Santa Clara valley. - Senator Fulton followed. In all FAIRBANKS SPENDS BUSY DAY ' HIGGINS FORMALLY NOTIFIED ¢ BATTLE IN SECOND DISTRICT Nominee for Gov- ernor of New York Is Cheered. OLEAN, N. Y, Oct. 4.—Lieutenant Governcr Frank W. Higgins, the Re- publican candidate for Governor, and his assoclates on the ticket chosen at the Saratoga convention were to-day formally notified of their nomination. The ceremonies took place at the home of Lieutenant Governor Higgins at 4| o’clock this afternoon. It had been previously arranged to have this part of the programme car- ried out at noon, but the wreck of a train on the Erie Rallroad delayed 2 part of the committee and a number of prominent Republicans from the east- ern part of the State, and it was post- poned until they arrived. An immense crowd surrounded Hig- gins’ home, and the nominees were en- thusiastically cheered. Lieutenant Gov- ernor Higgins was greeted with a storm of applause when he began his reply accepting the nomination, and his ad- dress was frequently interrupted with cheers. The other important events of the day were a reception and luncheon at Lieutenant Governor Higgius' home and a mass-meeting in the public park at 3 | o’clock in the afternoon and a parade| | and ratification meeting in the evening. Among the speakers at the mass-meet- ing were Senator Depew and former Lieutenant Governor Timothy L. Wood- ruff. + tory, said he, no man occupying the Presidential chair had brought to the discharge of his duties such a high re- gard for the welfare of the people, 80 firm a purpose for the execution of the laws as Theodore Roosevelt. He predicted the re-election of the latter by a large majority. 3 At the conclusion of the speaking Senator Fairbanks held a reception and shook hands with more than 1000 people. The party left here about 12 o'clock for Livermore. Gl ERGACU A CANDIDATE’'S SALUTE. Booming Cannon Greet Vice Presiden- tial Nominee at Livermore. LIVERMORE, Oct. 4.—The train bearing Senator Fairbanks and party arrived on schedule time at 1 p. m. The committee of arrangementg for the affair consisted of T. E. Knox, F. R. Fassett, J. W. Clarke, Willilam McDon- ald and D. A. Smith. The arrival of the train was heralded by the dis- charge of cannon, the blare of music and the blowing of whistles. All the business houses in town closed at noon and remained so until after the depar- ture of the train. The public school had an hour's recess and the children, under the guidance of their teachers, lined up at the depot. James W, Clarke acted as chairman and introduced Sen- ator Fairbanks as the next Vice Presi- dent of the United States. At the conclusion of Senator Fair- banks’ speech little Wilma Johnson, a tot of about three years, climbed the rear platform and presented him with a beautiful bouquet of flowers in a child- —% | ish, lisping speech. She said: “'Senator Fairbanks, please accept these flowers as a token of our love and best wishes for your suc- | cess.” The Senator picked her up in his arms and, kissing her, said to the audience: “Here is something dearer and better than all the political speeches ever made.” Senator Fulton of Oregon addressed the people, after which Joseph Know- land, who was received with vociferous applause, assured Senators Fairbanks and Fulton that Alameda County was loyal to the party and would roll up a majority for Roosevelt and Fairbanks larger than any other county in Cali- fornia. o gee GIVES STRAIGHT TALK. Senator Makes Splendid Impression at Stockton, Where He Addresses Thousands. STOCKTON, Oct. 4.—The special train bearing Senator Fairbanks and party reached here at 3 o’clock. Ten minutes later the Vice Presidential nominee was speaking to an audience of several thousand people gathered cn the courthouse lawn. He was enthusiastically received and his genial mannerisms and straight talk made favorable impression. In a few sentences the Senator was introduced by the county chairman. When the cheering had subsided he sald: I am surprised at_the magnitude demonstration. am surprised. you are actively interemed in the great ques- tions engxing the American people. It is evi- dence that you are pretty well satisfied with the Republican policies and that you have falth in the administration of Theodore Roose- velt. I have long heard of Stockton as a place of commercial activity. I am gratified to be here in the home district of one of the most splendid Republicans in the nation—Congress- man J. C. Needham. No aistrict in the United States is represented by a man more thorough- 1y devoted to the interests of his constituents. Mr. Needham is a typical Republican; he is a man who does things. That is characteristic of the Republican party. He Is a man who accomplishes what he sets out to do. No matter how wise or how eloquent a man may be in public affairs, he cannot serve you as well 1f he has not the ability. My fellow citi- zens_honor yourselves by once more giving to Mr. Needham the commission to serve you. Senator Charles Fulton of Oregon was then introduced and made a five- minute address. In the course of his remarks a member of the audience shouted: “How about the bullpen?” The Senator came back with: “You Democrats can strike out the bullpen and substitute the souphouse.” The sally caused a ripple of laughter. bk G A McKinlay at Sacramento. SACRAMENTO, Oct. 4£—Duncan E. McKinlay. Republican candidate for Congressman from this district, ad- dressed a large gathering of the em- ployes of railroad shops in this city at noon to-day. McKinlay spoke from a platform erected on the corner of Third and I streets, near the entrance to the shops. He talked to the mechanics on the principles of unionism, saying that he himself was a union man to the backbone and if elected to Congress would see that the laboring man’s rights were well looked after. He told how he helped to organize the Team- sters’ Union in Santa Rosa. He closed his address with an effective appeal to of this 1 am as much gratified as I It is evidence of the fact’that | the voters, pledging himself if elected to support the policy of President Roosevelt. e RSV Caminetti’s Campaign. MILTON, Oct. 4—Hon. A. Caminet- tl addressed a well attended meeting at Milton on Monday evening. To-day large and enthusiastic audiences greet- ed him at Hodson and Copperopolis. To-night he speaks at Jamestown, Tuolumne County. vl i o L AR ‘The Paraiso Springs are always open, * Republicans of Napa County Cannot Be Fooled. The Republican State Central Com- mittee is in possession of facts which | convince the party leaders, that the | Democrats in California aré ready to sacrifice the Presidential and local can- didates of their party in order to in- crease the vote for Democratic Con- gressicnal nominees. It is computed | thut the Democrats require only the gain of sixteen seats in order to secure centrol of the House of Representa- tives. | The opporents of the Republican na- ! tional administration are putting for- ward special effcrt in the Second Dis- trict to bring about the election of Bell. Word comes from Napa County that Republicans are importunéd to vote for Bell on the ground that he is the home candidate. The plea for Republican | support of the Democratic candidate is often made in this manner: “Of course the district is largely Republican and McKinlay's election is assured, but Theodore is a good fellow and lives in Napa County. A few votes from out- side of his party given to him will not change the result, but the compliment will be appreciated by Bell and his friends.” g DEMOCRATIC TACTICS. The Republican newspapers of the Second District and the Republican | State Central Committee are well ad- | vised regarding the tactics of the Dem- ocratic managers and are giving words of caution to the Republicans of Napa | County. | Early in the campaign when the! Democratic convention was in session at Santa Cruz, word was passed along the line that President Rcosevelt's ‘“‘dangerous personalitv”’ was to be the Democratic battle cry. Bell, who got the cue early from headquarters of his party, waved the danger signal at Santa Cruz when speaking of Roose- | velt and sounded the praises of the “safe’” Judge Parker. Since then there has been a change of Democratic front. The danger signals have been taken in | and Parker “safety” is no longer com- mended. ! The Chico Daily Enterprise, replying | to several questions propounded by the | Napa Journal, presents this argument: There are several reasons why the Republi- cans who voted for Bell two years ago should vote for McKinlay this year. One of them is that Bell has pronounced President Roosevelt @ dangerous man. The President's name was | , but the inference was so strong | v one at that Santa Cruz_convention ho was meant. That alone would be a sufficient reason why any Republi- | can should not vote for him this vear. { Then again, a Republican |s such because of | principles. 'Strongest of these principles is that of protection. Mr. Bell is the nominee of a party that pronounces protection a rob- bery. "True, Mr. Bell does not dare to stand | firmiy on that plank, as he knows full well s a protection people in the Second | ssional District. The fact remains, however, that he repre- gents that idea by reason of having accepted his nomination at the hands of men who stand for the platform as formulated in party con- vention. 1f the Democrats have pronounced protection a robbery, and no one will deny that they have, why should any Republican, or any other man who believes in the protection pol- icy, cast a vote for Mr. Bell? i The Republicans are quite confident that they will regain control of the Second District and also win back the | Fourth and Fifth districts. A solid Republican delegation from Califor- nia in the House of Representatives will give the President the support he | deserves.

The United Independent Republican Club of the Thirty-ninth Assembly District. John R. Aitken president, will meet to-night at Richmond Hall to take final action upon the following resolution: “Resolved, That it is for the best in- terests of the Republican party that this club support an independent Re- publican candidate for the Assembly in this district.” The regular Republican nominee in the Thirty-ninth District is T. E. At- kinson, secretary of the Republican County Committee. There is an active element of good citizenship in the In- dependent Republican Club of the Thirty-ninth and a nominee of inde- pendent proclivities would doubtless receive considerable support. It is the impression, however, in political eir- cles that another Republican nomina- tion would result in the election of the Democratic candidate. —_———— MAGNIFICENT BAY TRIP.

The trial was set for yesterday, but, on behalf of the contestant, Attorney Hiram W. Johnson made a motion for a continuance. Attorney E. S. Pills- bury, representing Administrator Wil- liam G. Mugan, and flanked by Attor- neys Garret McEnerney and W. F. Williamson, representing Etta Marion ‘Warren and Administrator George D. Gray, was ready for trial and demand- ed that Mr. Johnson should make a showing in support of his motion, Johnson thereupon read a twenty- five page affidavit, signed by Schander, and for the first time it was made pub- lic that the contestant expects to gain some sort of support from witnesses in New York, Paris and elsewhere, whose depositions have been ordered taken by the court. The uncle of unfortunate Bertha Dolbeer in his affidavit declares that he will show that she took her own life and had long been mentally deranged. On the stand, under exami- nation bv Mr. Pillsbury, he declared that the girl had been ‘“queer” from babyhood, yet he had not spoken to her since she was three years of age. “The last time I crossed John Dolbeer’s threshold,” he sald, ‘““was the day my sister, his wife, committed suicide.” SCHANDER EXAMINED. Schander had a free and éasy way of responding to Mr. Pillsbury’s questions and declared that he had no personal knowledge of the facts alleged in his afdavit, but that they had been re- ported to him by his attorneys. He had not personally made any investi- gations in the case, but had trusted everything to the Messrs. Johnson. He admitted that the purpose of getting the deposition of Miss Warren was to find a basis for his case and that the names mentioned by her in her exami- nation Were of the persons whose depo- sitions were to be taken, though he did not know what the persons would tes- tify to. f they don’t know anything they can’t tell anything” was his epi- grammatical way of putting it. When asked if he thought he was entitled to a continuance, he replied that he saw no reason for ‘railroading the thing through.” 4 Up to the time of retaining Johnson & Johnson and starting the investiga- tion, Schander had gathered all of his information about the death of Miss Dolbeer and the contents of the will from the newspapers. He had, he said, received a postal from a man named Schnitt, of whom he had never before heard, telling him that he could get some information from the New York Coroner. This postal came early in August. Mr. Pillsbury questioned him about his acquaintance with his niece. He said that he had known her from the time she was born until she was three of Contest Against Will met on the street they did not speak. He asserted, however, that his sister, Mrs. Roche, now dead, had told him about the child and that Edward Don- nelly had told him that he had advised John Dolbeer to send his daughter to a sanitarium, ANOTHER WILL MENTIONED. Schander had never heard that Miss Dolbeer had made a will before the ¢ne admitted to probate until he heard William Mugan so testify at the taking of a deposition. The will was sealed and put in a safe and Mugan did not know what had become of it. Schander admitted that he had no information that the will was different from the second one except that he was told so by his attorneys and the statement was included in the affidavit. It tock an hour’'s time to read the affidavit to the court. In the purpose to show that the contestant's attorneys had used diligence in forwarding their case and prosecuted their investiga- tions unremittingly the recital com- menced with the fact of Miss Dolbeer’s death on July 9 and followed each pro- ceeding up to the present time. - It was set forth that Schander, at the beginning of the case, did not know the circumstances surrounding the execu- tion of the will or the life of Miss Dol- beer for two years prior to her death. Miss Warren's deposition was neces- sary to enlighten him on certain mat- ters and some of the names and cir- cumstances she mentioned had not been known of by him before. Other information, relating to what evidence certain persons might give, was re- celved subsequently from agents em- ployed in New York, London, Paris and San Francisco and upon the receipt of such information due haste was used in applying for orders to take deposi- tions. The depositions in New York are to be taken on October 13 and it is nec- essary, says the affidavit, for Hiram Johnson to go there. But the deposi- tions of Popendick and Miss Pflugel, employes on the Deutschland, cannot be taken until the 21st of this month because the ship will not be in New York harbor until that date. EXPECTED EVIDENCE. In setting forth, seriatim, what cer- tain of the foreign witnesses are ex- pected to testify to, the afidavit de- clares that Miss Warren, at her exam- ination, said that Miss Dolbeer’s death was accidental, but that Gustave Scholer, Coroner of New York, would say that Miss Warren had told him that Miss Dolbeer “had consulted a doctor in Paris, who said that she was suffering from neurasthenia™ and “would be apt to do something rash for which she should not be held re- sponsible.” It was declared that Willlam Pop- endick and Miss Pflugel of the Deutschland would testify that on the trip across the Atlantic Miss Dolbeer was depressed and melancholy. The five Misses O'Connor and two Misses King, who visited Miss Dol- beer at the Hotel Regina in Paris, would say that Miss Dolbeer seemed depressed. One of the Misses King would relate an incident of a visit to the Arche de Triomphe in Paris when those who accompanied Miss Dolbeer, by reason of her actions, feared that she was ill. The contestant expects to prove by Dr. Gros that in May last he was consulted by Miss Dolbeer and pro- nounced her trouble neurasthenja, which is a loss of nerve power resuite ing from mental disorder. On the showing as made it was de clared that the contestant would not be ready to proceed to trial for sixty days. The hearing on the motion will be resumed at 11 o’clock this morning. —_——— Only $3.00 to Willits and Return, Sunday, October 9.
