Public Welfatre Always His Aim While in Tts Service. The following eulogy of the life of | former Supervisor Samuel Braunhart, who passed away at the German Hos- pital Monday morning, -is from the pen of Judge J. V. Coffey of the Su- perior Court: |, It ever there was a man whao illus- {trated In times like these the essen- [llal elements in public service of civic | virtue, it was the late Samuel Braun- hart. For thirty odd years he was a noted man in this community and | commonwealth. At first much misun- derstood, hé came to be considered for what he was—a man of integrity and intelligence. - I{e was born in the cit {of Schabin, Prussia, January 1, 1848, | and received his education in the pub- |1ic_schools of that country. | _On coming to America he early en- | gaged in commercial pursuits and was measurably successful therein, being | esteemed for his honesty and sound- ness of judgment. His word was al- wavs his. bond, and needed no other indemnity. 5 In politics, as in commerce, in course of time, Samuel Braunhart was recog- nized as a man of character and cali- 1ber. In him there was nothing eir- {cuitous; plain, direct, forthright, he gave offense often, but meant none; | erusty, but kindly, retaining no re- | sentments, even to his enemies, just |in his final judgments, no man Sur- passed him in severity of censure nor | overtook him in_ultimate charity. What he did for this city and for this State is not presently to be meas- ured. To the last moment of his sen- tient existence he was interested in the welfare of this community. In all his care he was studiously ob- servant of what was conducive to e interest of this commonwealth. e had been a member of the Assembly, a State Sepator, a Supérvisor, u mem- ber of many conventions, the autlor of a number of measures of reform; always in the right, active and ag- gressive, it is well, so far as we can, to_perpetuate his memory. muel Braunhart had been for many vears a consistent and fearless champion of the intérests of our peo- ple. His services in this regard can- not be overestimated. He was elected | a member of the first Legislature un- der the Constitution bf , and, | while serving in that capecity, proved | himself a zealous, diligent, faithful| and judicious representative. To such | an extent did his fearless advocacy of |the “rights of his constituents call {forth the venomous hostility of the | corporations that they sought to si- lénce him for daring to raise his voice against the aggressions of the monop- olists. He never flinched under the fire of the enemy, and at the sacri- fice of personal comfort and private Affairs he always sustained his honor and his pledges to the peaple. Mr. Braunhart was a constant stu- | dent, coming of @ family, noted for | their literary achievements, his father | {having been _intimately ' assoclated | | with Heinrich Heine. He was himself | well versed in general literature and intimately conversant with political and municipal matters; Indeed, his mind was riehly stored with material of great value to the development of this metropolis, and if he had been | spared, in his public-spirited way, in or out of office, he could have con- tributed_greatly to the reconstruction of San Francisco. Utterly unselfish, _dlffering from many now seeking riches out of the |ruins of San Francisco, Sgmuel Braunhart deserves to be remembered as & man who was not in politics for | private gain, but always regarded his honor and a pub- IV COFFEP | position as a post of lic trust. BIGELOW QUITY BANK POSITION Lipman and King Pro- moted by Board of Directors. 1 8 John F. Rigelow, one of the vice presidents of the Wells-Fargo-Ngvada National Bank, has resigned his po- health, which has been poor, and be- cause he desires a rest. The resigna- tion was accepted with reluctance by the directors, Bigelow having reat | popularity with all connected with the | bank. Mr. Bigelow is one of® the best | known of California bankers. He has held official positions, first with the | Nevada National Bank of San Fran- cisco, and then, under the consolida- | tion of the Nevada National Bank | with the old Wells-Fargo Bank, for a continuous period of eighteen years. His wide and intimate acqualnsance with business men and ‘business in- terests .on the Pacific Coast and his ripe judgment and probity have given him an envidble standing in banking circles. F. L. Lipman, formerly cashier of the Wells-Fargo Bank and more re- | cently the cashier of the Wells-Far- go-Nevada National Bank, was elect- | ed as a vite president. There are two vice presidents of the Wells-Fargo- Nevada National Bank, I. W. Hellman Jr..and Mrt. Lipman. Frank L.

Writer's Stirring Address to the People of P(;l * Rouses Dread of the Emperor of R_us‘sia.‘ : Nicholas Orders Suppression of Papers in Which Plea of the Gifted SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE C. WARBAW (Paland), May 29.—Henry | Sienkigwicz, author of “Quo Vadis” and the most famous of Polish authors, has delivered a political speech that is of unl- versal interest, not only because it deals eloquently and lucidly with the situation in Poland, but also because it was so out- spoken that the Government has done {ts’ best to siippress it and to seize coples of any newspapers containing it : The speech was delivared here under pecuilar circumstances—that is,"at & time when' mgny Poles thought that their’capi- tal would be represented at the forthcoms ing Douma by Jewish delegates. Eriefly, the facts were as follows: Until a few days of the elections, and until two days before the following speech was delivered, the different parties which make up the Polish: population in Poland - showed scarcely any interest in the approaching elections. This indifference was due to two causes: First, because the Socialistic leaders had repeatedly forbidden their ad- herents to have anything to do with thm; and secondly, because the Jews had ex- pressed thelr Inteption of boycqtting then altogether. The Polish patriots, therefore, safe from their two principal enemies, and suffering. from.a want of sufficient funds, set about thelr electoral campaign very qulet- ly and economicaily. But suddenly .the Jews, who had been quietly canvassing| |among their adherents, while professing to boycett the elections, opénly expressed their intention of voting, As they form over 18 per cent of the whole population, as their solidarity is proverbial, and as the Polish element was split into a num- her of parties, each with its own candi- date, the danger hecamg clear to all, and to noneé so clear as to Henry Sienkiewics, who has always distinguished himself by his boldness in expressing his patriotic sentiment and whase candor has mare than opce led him into trouble with the Russian Government. He saw that the Jews, true to their traditons, would work together at all costs; that they would vote as one man; that, in order to get all the votes possible, they paid the traveling ex- penses of their poorer co-religlonists to and from the electoral centers; that they clubbed together to pay for special trains; that their Kahal or court threatened the laggards with & heav® fine If they were late or remiss in voting. CHANCES IN DANGER. He saw, too, what many of his coun- trymen saw, that unless strenudus efforts | were nade, thé Pales in the provinces, not aware of the danger, would -divide their votes among the half-dozen candi- dates the différent parties had put for- ward, and thus lose all chancé of com- manding enough votes to return those who were necessary ‘o the Palish ests. But the Polish Nationalists, the largest Poiish political party, and thera- fore the only one which had any chance of uniting the scattered forces together, was badly off for funds and badly off for speakers. Nevertheless, great efforts were made, and sufficient funds collected | indeed to enable them to carry out a fairly com- prebensive campaign. Nobody worked harder than Henry Sienklewicz. The Na- tlonalists piaced him upon their list of candidates for the Douma, but in a grace- ful letter he refused, while thanking them for the hanor they had pald him, saying that his work lay not at Petersburg, but at home. His admirers reluctantly admit- ted that he was right, although no man in Foland is better fitted to represent the spirit and wishes of the Polish patriots than he js. The following speech is of double inter- est; it not only clearly states the political case for the Polish patriot, but it is a bold attack upon. those partles which belléve in gaining reforms from the Russ'an Gov- ernment by cringing to the Russian peo- ple. Another thing about It i8 that it ignores- with consummate tact any direct reference to the Jewish question which was, at the time the speech was delivered, occupying all minds in Poland. Sienkie- wicz knew that every word he' uttered ould be read throughout the land. He knew, too, that that feeMng of antl-Semit- ism, which never seems to be altogether absent from the Polish breast, had been fanned By the alectoral contest to fever point; that the temper of the Folish masses was such that it needed but a word, a trifling incident, a slight mis- understanding, to fan the smoldering spark of hatred ‘into a flame which would end in racial persécution and perhaps in a repetition of those fearful scenes which disgraced Russia quite recently, but from which the more ‘vilized .and tolerant kingdom of Polai % has happily been free. WORDS HAVE EFFECT. This is why, except for a few vague words at the beginning of his speech, Sien- kiewicz does qot even tauch wupon. the vexed question. But, nevertheless, he gives his audience clearly to understand that solidarity is the one thing that can avert the evils which are besetting the Polish patriot today. His words had ef- oter- | 1906, - DISPLEASES GZAR Patriot Is Printed, fect; for though the reports of his speech were eonflscated by the Russian authori- ties, it was not until thousands of copies had heen sent into the country districts and the provincial towns, - Henry Sisenkie- -wicz’s electoral speagh will long be treas- ured by his fellow countrymen. The gift- ed author, like many of his kind, shows to far hetter advantage in print than upon the platform. His shy, retiring npature. little fitted (_o\r public_speaking, shrinks from crowds. His voice, though melo- dious, does not catry far; and It is, there- fore, more profitable t8 read. his speeches | than to listen to them. In fact, Henry Sienkiewics .3 never so happy as in the usion of his country house, a gift of e Polish nation. to the man who has miade Poland’s hopes and Poland’s history famous throughout the warld. There, dressed in a green shooting soit and fol- lowed by his favorite dogs, he wanders about in ‘absolute security from the prying gaze of the curious, for it s a hl“~dly'l‘ Jqurney over the warst roads in the land | from the nearest railway station at Oblen- | gorek.. He sees few friends, and In mo- | ments of expansion i is his boast that ! the most daring interviewer has not yet succeeded In gaining admittance to his presence. Even in Warsaw, he leads the life of a hermit. Soclety has no charms for him and his face Is rarely seen at a play or a concert. It is only upon occa- sions of national meed that he emerges from his retirement and shows himself to | the people who admire him so much. It was one of these cases which led to the compositon of this speech, whose value; apart from its literary worth, cannot be overrated, for there. is not -the least doubdt that it did much to save the cause of the Polish patriots who have already gained a victory which they are certain of retaining throughout the elections for the Douma, upon which so many hopes are centered throughout the Russian empire. The speech, the principal extraets of which are here given, begins with the following words: % SIENKIEWICZ'S SPEECH. Citizens—I stand up among you today to per- form_a citizen's duty and to say a few words | in copnection with the great and serioug business we have now éngaged upon. I will not speak of the necessity of pagticipating in the elec- tions: even those who declired they were im- possible while martiai law I8 still in force ad- mit thelr necessity today. Those who threst- ied, frightened, who weaned our people away rom us—and Who have. alas, kept many of them, now rush to the Lustings, as if to mock those who befieved in them and wiiom they have deceived. We, therefore, cannot present such sn unbroken front as we would wish—a fact by which we both lose and gain, ' But there is no nged to speak of that here, for you 4]l uader- stand what I mean. But for this very resson, we need the more watchfulness and energy, in order to be able to choose stch delegates us Will_replly represent the spirit of the Polish peo- ple, and who will be ready to fAght to thelr last breath for the rights we must acquire, rights which belong to every great nation, and, there- fote, to ours. May these delegates not lean too much to the Russian side! May they remember who they ure. and who sent thém! May they ever keep the remembrance of the grand historical part we ¢ played 1o our hearts! Of our fame! Of our iounl | individuality! . May they know, not |Dow to fawi and bow, but to demand with dig- pity all that should be onrs!- Thelr task fs a gigantic one! For instance: we bear | éver-growing rumors that ceftain districts of the | Governments of Lublin and Siellce are to be eut off from the kingdom of Poland—of some pro- jects and_propusitions which are to be placed be- fore the Higher' House, and whicli, even now, are being discussed by the Council of Ministers.
