Long before the nominations were made this year, it was made by signs known to politicians that Mr. Rockefeller had d forces with J. J. Hill and other enemies of President Roose- t to defeat him. The Republican National Convention was in the hands of the people and nothing® could be done there. verful and secret one, had to be made against the President as a >, and must continue to the polls. nst. treachery by putting Mr. Cortelyou at the head of ional Committee, and his campaign has been made open and His support has come from the legitimate business o one denies:Mr. Rockefeller’s right to favor whom he pleases , and no one denies the subtlety of the Standard A majority of people, however, doubt the power of money to buy a Presiden- election. It has never been done in this country, and probably | nevér be done. It is known of all men, however, that the ndard Oil Company has supreme faith in the power of money to nything, and this faith accounts for its attempt to offset by the public lack of confidence in the Democratic party, and the crass blunders-of Judge Parker. The’ alliance of Rockefeller and Democracy is nefarious, for the reason-that. the party he is trying to reinstate in power has gained e popularity it-has by -denouncing the methods he is em- in 1ts behalf. This implies a vast and vicious system of -tensés which must appall the thoughtful citizen.

We don’t want 1893 over again. We don’t want another tinker at the protective tariff, like that Democratic- nondescript which even Mr. Cleveland was compelled to denounce as 2 record of fraud and dishorior. = This Government is for the prosperity of men and not for the gains of money alone, and men, and not money, will decide this elettion S filthy and false campaign against Mr. E. A. Hayes, Republican nominee for-Congress in the Fifth District. Mr. Haves lives in San José, and has been identified with reform in politics and polit- ical methods. He has been and is a leader in all things that make for decency. No honest man has ever questioned his sincerity and all men know his ability and his superb fitness to represént his district in Congress. - He is an able, upright man. Because in San Jose there are the usual manifestations of human folly and vice common to THE ATTACKS ON HAYES. INCE his nomination, the Examiner has carried on a vicious, cities, and froim which.none are exempt, Mr. Hearst accuses Mr. | Hayes of responsibility for their existence. Mr. Hayes needs no de- fense. Buf who is his accuser? Who and what is Hearst that he ‘may accuse other men? He represents in Congress the sink-hole district of New York-City. He is one of the stenches that rise from 1he cesspool of the filth and vice of the darkest part of New York. Wherever he has lived he has. left behind a trail of transgression. His path may be tracéd by the muck left by his feet wherever they have touched the earth. He has corrupted politics, journalism and social life. the example be has set before others leads hellward for such as follow it, A When such a person rises to rebuke an’ upright marn like Mr. Hayes, and to pursué him with a saridstorm of lies and detraction, it is time for decent people to take counsel together and consider their dirty. - When the Fifth California District gets its orders from the tehderloin district of New York City it will be time for de- cency to go into-a corner and die. When the pigsty of politics im- poses its smell and srhirch upon a campaign in California it is time to take defensive measures. AT 3 We make. no dpolagy for our treatment of these creatures. Filth is not less filthy by calling it “matter out of place.” By filth it is attempted to defeat Mr. Hayes, who-is representative of the class of men most desirable to enlist in politics, for their knowledge and their high character. The source of this filth is an afluent foun- tain of all that is vile and repulsive in public and private life, and any less statement of it would not be a plain statement, which is what we desire to make 'JUDGE' PARKER WOBBLES. as a HE speech of Secretary Hay in-Carnegie Hall, New York, is a powerful, beeause reasonable, campaign appeal, that goes to the substance of things. It is free from invective and may serve missionary effort among Democrats, who feel the lack of any real issue raised by, their party, and reviews temperately some of the remarkable statements made in Judge Parker’s recent speeches from the porch at Esopus. ~ One does not need to attack the character of Judge Parker in reviewing his utterances. He has emerged from the judicial chrysalis to spread his first wing in politics for nearly a quarter of a century. He takes flight through a new world. He has not kept in touch with events and is compelled to cram in order to have material for use in the speeches he must make to visiting clubs and occasional audi- ences. 3 The Democratic party does queer things. Only infrequently does it attract the sober attention of the country. It was moved upon by wisdom when it nominated Cleveland, for he was a sea- soned politician, with the qualities of a statesman. He knew the public issues of his time and could discuss them in clear statement. His opponents found him a foeman with whom combat was a vigor- ous experience. But his predecessor, General Hancock, was all that Cleveland was not. His profession of arms had isolated him, and he had not kept in touch with the public affairs of the country. No one disliked him personally. He was an ideal soldier, as Parker may be an ideal Judge. But in the course of the campaign Hancock fioundered hopelessly and helplessly in his attempt to discuss public and political issues. So plain dic it appear that he was not, equip- -NOVEMBER 8, 1904 | ORMERLY the oscillating quantity in ‘campaigns was repre-| Democratic -districts he was a Democrat and in Republican The fight, a | The President secured | e country, allied with all the common interests of the peo-| m which he relies for the victory he is sure to win next| t wish any -one connected with Standard Oil to contribute | yute to. the Democrats in Democratic States and to the | From the beginning of the cam-| dge Parker’s campaign in New York was opened by | rties, amount to a demonstration that the confidence ex-| The faith of the Presi- | His career sweats disregard of the code of morals, and | BACK TO THE FARM. || chickens being carried off. | | | COPYRIGHT. - ped mentally, nor by experience, for the office of President, that business men became alarmed and without regard to party combined | | and defeated him. | | Judge Parker is going the same pace. While he confined him- self to abstractions he was tolerable. But recently he has stepped | off speculative ground and has been making speeches which dis- | close a mind unfitted for the executive duties and responsibilities which a President must discharge. His discussion of fiscal matters iand of public finances show him profoundly unlearned and amaz- | ingly credulous as to the management of the finances of the Gov- ernment. He is incapable of grasping such questions. Perhaps it | is this inability to comprehend a fiscal question that led him to twice | support Mr. Bryan’s wild pdints of finance. ! Secretary Hay points out Judge Parker’s equally wild expres- sions about the Philippines, in which he undershoots and overshoots with a recklessness that would scatter the bystanders if he were handling a gun with equal recklessness. The people do not want a credulous and wondering man for President, no matter how amiable he may be. The Judge seems to be that kind of person and reveals | himself in the Esopus oratory that he is using in the closing days | of the campaign. Since he has made these wobbly speeches there has evidently been a new alignment in New York that has ended all doubt about President Roosevelt carrying the State. Going to the betting as an indication, after each of the Judge’s speeches his backing declines. ; The professional bettors are not moved by any impulse. They are perfectly cold-blooded. Mahy of them in New York City are Demo- | crats, but they are also professional students of chance and put up | the odds with a perfectly cold heart, as far as partisanship is con- | cerned. ! The business men are equally indifferent to party politics when the issue is between a man who is expert as an executive with a level head and knowledge of public affairs, and one who seems | to combine a stolid and a credulous quality of mind that would make him an unsafe man in the office which he seeks. The judgment of | business men beat Hancock, with all his deserved military honors ‘ upon him, and the same unerring judgment will defeat Judge Parker. REMEMBER THE COURTS. N the press of other political interests the people of San Francisco should not lose sight of their opportunity to recast and reform our whole method of electing a judiciary. For the first time in | the history of San Francisco the people of this city have a chance to | | 1ift the judiciary of the State entirely out of partisan politics. It is {2 most desirable consummation and the opportunity should not be | lost. ! It is believed by the best thinkers that these two major Ameri- | can institutions, the public schools and the judiciary, should be en- | tirely separated from partisan control. The education of the people | and the administration of justice, to be best, must of necessity be | for all, free from influence and bias related to partisan obligations. | To secure this is possible only by removing such management en- tirely from partisanship. How can this be done except by disregard- | ing the party responsibility in election? By common consent this 'has been done here in regard to the judges, for the first time in a campaign, and if that consent be carried successfully to the polls in | the election of Judges Murasky, Troutt, Seawell and Kerrigan we will entirely, and for all the future, eliminate partisanship from the | election of judges. : When it is done here it will spread over the State. There seems now no doubt that the people will ratify the constitutional amend- ment for an appellate court, intermediate between the Superior and Supreme courts. The men who sit in the new tribunal must be the flower of the legal profession. It must be a bench free from partisan | attachment or obligation. If we elect the four incumbent judges in | this city next Tuesday, we will have made efficient preparation for the choice of the best possible appellate bench. The interests, the policy and the sentilnent at ‘stake are too vastly important to be lightly overlooked, and it should be a matter of pride with every citizen to help a movement so great in its promise of public benefit, by voting for Judges Murasky, Troutt, Seawell and Kerrigan.

Other thou- sands are delighted that they don't have to afford taffeta at a dollar a yard except for the handsomest frock, says the Pittsburg Press. All in one with the reformation from heavy clothes is the abandoning of taf- fetas for linings, except where velvet and elegant cloths are concerned. Lib- erty satin has been substituted for evening gowns and china silk for house wear. Dozens of women use silk pongee, ! which is durable and has a little body in it. The necessity of having a taffeta lin- ing for a thin house frock has gone. In truth, it looks rather heavy and stiff by the side of the exquisite linings of China and Japanese silk. The women who can afford only one such lining make this up into a slip, with blouse and skirt gathered at one belt and fastened down back, cut either high or low. There is still another class of women who do not wish to afford even a slip of China silk, and they should be de- lighted to know that they are equally in fashion by wearing a smartly made and trimmed corset cover and petticoat of white muslin. All of these fashionable edicts make the house wardrobes for the average woman a much easier problem than it has been for years. Remember that thin fabrics are cheaper now than ever: that there is no reason to believe the styles in them will change for this winter; that flowered and colored fabrics are more fashion- able than white, and that white cotton net will be elaborately used next sea- son, run through with silver or gold threads, trimmed in blonde lace and scmetimes touched with polka dots of colored floss. . If you have leisure time during the next six weeks make two or three dainty slips fastened down the back of muslin or China silk for house wear pext winter. If you are subject to colds male them with high neck and long sleeves and wear under them a Shet- land wool corset cover and petticoat. Return, Sweet Day.

Corsets in Austria. The yearly report laid before the Austrian Ministry of Commerce by the Vienna Chamber of Commecrce and In- dustry registers a great decrease in the number of cersets manufactured during the past year. It attributes this decreasc to the publication of medical opinion condemning tight lac- ing and aiso to the exiension of the “reformkleid,” or ratio- 1 ess. All corset ctories have reduced the number of their ¢mployes and so-ie have closed altogether. Cannot Resist Theft When Touching. Silk A curious defense was put forward in Paris the other day by a lawyer when pleading for his client, a young and aristocratic looking lady named Madame Deline, a confirmed klepto- maniac, who was put on her trial for the theft of a femnant of silk from one of the large Paris drapery shops. The prisoner had been condemmned on ten previous.occasions for similar of- fenses. Her counsel pointed out that she had never stolen anything but’ silk. The touch of this material, he explained, produced a singular sensa- tion of fascination which Madame De- line found it impossible to resist. The truth of this, he continued, was borne out by medical evidence and recognized by the magistrate before whom she was brought on the last occasion, who, in spite of her previous convictions, fined her only one franc. The further hearing of the case was postponed In order that the woman's mental cdndi- tion might be inquired Into. For the Table.

THE CAPTAIN—J. S, City. The cap- tain of a ship is always the captain or master, even when he takes a pilot on board. The pilot, unless the master surrenders the command of the vessel to him, has no authority except to en- force sailing or steaming orders. The best proof that the captain is the mas- ter of the ship all the time is that even should he turn the ship over to a pilot he has the authority at any time to discharge the pilot. —_—— Townsend’'s California Glace fruits in artistic fire-etched boxes. 715 Market st.* Press i
