MANY MEETINGS.
W. IT. L. Barnes Speaks at the
New Republican Wigwam.
REFUSING Reception to E. F. Loud at the Mis-
sion-Piece Clubs Resp;ng Harvest.
Candidates Endorsed.

Under the auspices of the Republican In
yincibles W. II. l.. Barnes delivered an ad-
dress at the new Wigwam last evening to an
extremely large and enthusiastic audience
Of ladies and gentlemen.
After the usual musical programme, in
GLIDING a number of amusing Campaign
songs by sam Booth and his G!ee Club,
Colonel c. 5. Taylor in brief address re-
ferred to the hopelessness of the Demo
cratic cause, and introduced the speaker of
the evening.
General Barnes prefaced his remarks by
reviewing the good ork done by the In
vincibleS in the campaigns of the past, ever
since the members of the organization first
decided to take up the Republican banner.
In the second campaign of Grant for the
Presidential chair tie Invincibles performed
the work of yeomen and worked untringly
in behalf Of that gallant soldier and states
man. Ii was not their fault that James G.
Blaine was not elected to the Presidential
chair, and the speaker deplored the fact that
the illustrious champion of protection
should have been left in the race with such
Il man as Cleveland for his opponent
STILL IN The FIELD
" However. we are still in the field" said
tie spt aker," and will not leave it until we
have elected Colonel Markham and the
entire Republican ticket Never since the
Government was formed has a party more
reason to be proud of the members of the
Fifty-frst Congress than the grand old Re-
publican party. During the many months
in which Congress has been in session, our
representatives in both Houses have carried
out every principle, in spite of the many
obstacles placed in their path. and to. day
they stand before the voters of the country
as true Americans, willing and anxious to
fulfill their pledges. Not only are we
striving for local success in the present
campaign. but we owe it to Congress to send
back a full list of Republicans, with not
single struggling Democrat to obstruct leg
islaton and make 4 laughing stock of our
country. Little Bobby Ferral is politically
dead, and although he has had the impu-
Qence TO stand before an intelligent audien
and threaten TO spit IN the face OF Speaker
Reed. he will find that the citizens OF Cali
fornia are not in the habit of sarctioning
this sort Of craftsmanship, even from little
Bobby Ferral
\ LABEL FOR BOBBY.
"When the law gives out and Bob is
obliged to return 10 first PRINCIPLES / would
suggest that he be placed in dime museum
ana labeled as the llama of California, or
the Democratic splitter. General John I.
Cutting Bobby ; opponent, is gentleman
familiar With the commercial wants OF Cali
fornia, and although no man could surpaSS
". W. Morrow, our late representative, 1t
i safe 10 say that General Cutting VIII be
equally as painstaking when our Interests
are under consideration. l ain sorry thai
Mr. Morrow would not accept the Office dur
FDg her bavp ! q
selected equally as good a representative.
The Republican administration has been
magnificent one up TO the present. and it
viii continue so until the end. When
our party took charge of the Ma
tlonal Government we we're without Il
navy. The country had in its possession
few WeatheT-beaten craft that were utterly
unit for sea, much less for active service.
We now have the foundation of a navy of
which the American navy will ore day be
proud. By Skiliful diplomacy the admins
tratIon closed the trouble with Samoa to
our satisfaction, and proved to the world
that America was the leader among nations.
! also desire to say that when, In the ylO-
lent storm in the harbor Of Apia. the Ameri-
can men Of-War were dashed TO pieces, our
heroic seamen went to their deaths like ali
true Americans should, singing the songs of
liberty and doing honor to our mag.
PAS-AMERICAN CONGRESS.
''The Pan American Congress will bear ex-
cellent fruit, aud in the near future We will
find ourselves bound by closer band to our
South American nelghboFs. The cruisers
built on the Pacific Coast are indeed pride
10 our State, and only serve to show just
what can be done by enterprise. We have
q right to feel proud Of the American me-
chanic ana when We look upon the wonder
full products of his labor Is 1t not natural
that we Should all feel proud Of his wisdom
and strength?
England fifteen years hence, viii see
the United States with the finest navy and
the bTayest sailors upon the seas, and this
state of affairs was begun and continued by
the party whose aim has Away been to
champion the cause OF human liberty. The
Republican Secretary Of the Navy has
raised the sailor to the level of man, and
the Republican Secretary of War has made
the loWllest soldiers in the ranks a human
being. The time mas passed when brutes
can knock out of human shape the humbeSt
sailor under the flag, and petty tyrant can
abuse the soldiers, who stand ready to do
their -eountry's bidding. The Republican
Administration has also handled the Indian
question in a mastery manner. and the
system adopted by the Interior Department
of opening up the vast territories heretofore
held almost entirely by the Indians viii be
productive Of much good
THE SURPLUS.
The Treasury Department has used the
surplus, which worried Mr.. Cleveland TO
such an alarming extent, in supplying the
wants Of our soldiers. and, in short, the en-
tire administration, from top to bottom, has
been one OF wisdom and foresight.
"Of the Mckinley bill l need say but lit
tie Every intelligent citizen knows that it
has already given new impetus to the in
du5trial affairs Of the land. The same may
he sad of the Silver Bill. The Federal
election law is also a brilliant piece of
national legislation, and the condnct of
Speaker Reed cannot help but win the re-
spect Of not only the Republican party, but
tie entire American nation. He subdued
the Yelling mob of Democratic obstruction
lists without fiinching, and proved himself
equal t. the task of suppressing blackguard-
ism and disorder in the House OF Repre-
SentatyeS.
On the whole, this is magnificent record
for the Republican party, and l am certain
that the State and city will show its appre-
citation OF it by electing our candidates by a
sweeping majority at the coming election.
We want Our government run by statesmen
who will consult the interests Of the people
and look after the welfare Of Our American
