DEPARTED GLORY.
"BOss" Buckley Deserted by All Except
HIS Blacklist Lambs,

"BOss" Buckley Deserted by All Except
His Blacklist Lambs.
The decadence of Boss Buckley's pop
ularity is 81 gnificant Of the waning of his
power. SO long rs he was able to peddle
out fat positions, there were plenty OF men
to bend to his arbitrary rule Now that a
hope Of deliverance is at hand. he has lost
the authority which he formerly so arbi-
trariy exercised. That his rule was founded
on fear and not affection, is shown in this
that no sooner did he lose the ability to re-
ward his henchmen than his underlings be-
gan to desert him.
The other day he held levee in the open
hall of the Democratic County Committee,
and though everybody had an opportunity
to approach the throne with no more for
mality than undergoing the degradation of
an introduction by Jake Rudolph or Jerry
Driscoll, very few intruded upon the erst-
while Gar OF San Francisco and the Potrero.
while two years ago the men who wanted 10
see the Boss" would have had to stand in
Postoffice order to obtain so much as a word
with the great dictator
Judges, Senators and business men, seek
ing places for themselves or their friends,
would have waited hours, hat in hand, for
him to signify his august condescension to
grant them an interview. In addition, they
would have had to run the gauntlet of out
side and inside guardians of the portal, with
complex code of grips and signals. All
this has changed, and the only adherents
left for the shrunken Boss is a crowd of
lo0t-huDters, who in his palmy days would
not have received moments consideration
at his hands.

GRAVES AND LEAKE.
Addresses by Two Democratic Spenkt

Addresses by Two Democratic Speakers
ut Metropolitan Temple.
A Democratic meeting was held in Metro
poltan Temple last night. o. NJ. Willing
acted as Chairman. He said in his remarks
that only Democrats should be elected TO
office, and asked electors 10 vote for Haskins
for Police Judge. lie did not wish to have
anybody coIIioGnd Haskins with person
in this city called Brunette g. Haskell.
Walker G. Graves, young man, who
announced himself as Democratic nominee
for Attorney General of the State, said he
wanted to see such legislation transacted
as would help the people" He did not tell
ton, but Insisted that it ought to be trans
acted"
MI Graves declared that it was marvel
Gus to him how man could be as popular
as Mr.. Pond after living in the State so long,
and being in business as farmer, miner,
merchant and statesman.
E. c. Leake, editor of the Dixon Tribune,
was introduced, and again denied the re-
port that Mayor Pond was given his nonii-
nation for Governor by Chris Buckley in
pursuance OF compromise rezarding the of
fetal patronage, thus showing that the
ghost of the San Jose Convention will not
down, but is being combated desperately
by all the Democratic orators
MIR. Ieake admitted that he was Chief
Clerk of the California Legislature, and said
lie had begged pardon for that all over the
State. He claimed that American boys had
been discharged from Mr.. CaInegie's iron
works, and said that foreigners are making
it impossible for American boys to be ap-
prenticed to trades. He said there were no
strikers and no tramps in this country until
high protective tariff was declared by the
Republicans to be necessary in times of
profound peace. He said that Carnegie's
Infant industry" has grown to De giant
six feet tall, that would ''kick the very
stomach off the workingmen if they tried to
object TO reduction of wages"
The Examiner was given side slap by
the speaker, who eulogized John p. Irish. so
recently denounced by Buckeyes principal
organ in tins city. The Democrats were
abjured to close up their ranks, tut their
best men on guard and try TO win.
There were great many empty seats in
the gallery when the speaker began, and be-
fore the close many more were lett without
an occupant.

LAST STREET MEETINGS.
The Reform Democrats Crusade Against
Buckieyism.

Inc Reform democrats CruSNue AgaIhst
Buckieyism.
The leading nominees on the Reform
Democratic ticket made their final appeals
to the public before the election last night.
This vigorous campaign of the ti-Buckley
men, which has been carried on during the
month in every section Of the city, was
brought to close with display of ire
works. There was considerable enthusiasm
among the crowds, who listened attentlVely
to the denunciatOn of Buckleylsm by the
speakers who appeared on the portable
platforms of the party.
Another meeting of merchants was held
at noon yesterday on Pine street in front OF
the San Francisco Stock Exchange, Stuart
Menzies presiding. Thomas V. Gator re-
newed his promises of what he proposed to
do in favor OF this State, particularly in
reference to anti Chinese legislation, If
elected to Congress from the Fourth District.
He declared that the contest had nari owed
down to Cutting and himself You are
right" exclaimed voice among the hun
dreds Hho crowded around The stand,
"Ferral amt in it," Mr.. Gator concluded
by saying that the corruption in this city
is more heinous under Buckley'S rule in pro-
portion than it had been in New York dur
ing the operations of the Tweed ring.
In the evening Messrs. Manner, smith.
Cleveland and Gator spoke from one wagon
to several hundred people at the corner OF
Third and Market streets, Willie the other
wagon, with its usual quota of speakers,
made circuit of the Mission. After the
meeting of the reformers' vehicles at the
usual place on Eddy street, near Powell, the
streets in that vicinity were quickly blocked
with auditors. The closing address was made
by Charles A. Sumner, who told what he
would do if elected District Attorney, and
how he proposed to wage war on Buckley
and his lambs" VINO had grown fat in
Office by plundering the city treasury.

BURY BUCKLEY's GANG.
An Answer to tho Pamphlet on Markham
nd TroA UnJn

"a" answer TO tho Pamphiet on niorkham
and Trades Unions.
The Pacific Coast Trade and Labor Jour-
nal has long article treating fully the sub
Ject OF the pamphlet lately published against
Mr.. Markham in reference to trades and
typographical unions. In this article it is
demonstrated that Pond employs 23S Chinese,
and is opposed TO the eight-hour law, yet has
not been boycotted by the Council OF Fed
Grated Trades, which was, moreover, utterly
Indifferent to the protest of members OF the
council to consider the record of Democratic
candidates.
The marked manner in which candidates
were selected from the Republican ticket is
taken as proof of how well the scheme was
concerted, giving rise, moreover. TO the be-
lief that Buckley has controlling vote in
the council. Letters are quoted from Mark
ham himself, showing not only that he is
true TO the care on the Chinese question, but
friend to trades unions The undenied
record Of Pond as an employer OF Chinese is
submitted, and his acts as a member Of the
Board of City Hall Commissioners are cited
to show his opposition to the eight-hour law.
The article concludes:
Colonel Markham is not only a brave soldier
and good citizen, but has given pledge,
whether elected OF not, TO work for the enact
Inehl OF the iederatien's ballot law; besides
the Chinese letter has been branded forgery.

Precinct Boards Completed, but Not the
Challenge List.
Register Smiley reported to the Election
Commissioners yesterday that all the Re-
publican precinct officers had been ap-
pointed, and a list handed to the Demo-
cratic County Committee. The Democratic
list is also complete and in the hands Of the
Republican County Committee.
Mr.. viii. of the firm of viii & Finck, APP
peared before the board to explain the Pc
culiarities of his position, both as a voter
and precinct officer. When he was ap-
pointed he lived on Van Ness avenue, but
since that time he has found it necessary to
move his house, and meanwhile take up
temporary residence elsewhere and in
another precinct.
Commissioners Strother ard O'Brien
agreed that as the change of residence was
forced and only temporary 1t should not de-
priye Mr.. Will of any privileges as citizen,
and they so voted.
Commissioner Flournoy thought differ

the proposition from o purely legal stand

HIGH LICENSE.
Restriction Better Measure Than Pro-
hibition.

hfbition.
A gathering of the friends of high license
assem- bled at Irish-American Hall last night
to listen TO Robert Graham, the eloquent ad-
vocate of the movement. The address,
though of very informal character, was
exceedingly interesting, as the speaker I'M
dertook TO show from his own personal
observation and the independent testimony
of high authorities the comparative effect of
restrictive and prohibitory laws.
In 1881, as he told his hearers, he came out
from England to study the question in the
great prohibition State of Maine. He put
up at the leading hotel in Portland, the city
of which Neal Dow, the Prohibition leader,
was Mayor, and to his surprise found it pos
sible to obtain liquors of every description
within its walls. In Bangor the state of
affairs was even worse. for, by an under
standing with the Mayor, the business was
conducted openly on all days except Sunday
In Vermont, New Hampshire and Rhode
Island, all Prohibition States, the same con-
dition of things existed, and The trend of in
telligent opinion is that prohibition, far
from helping tho temperance cause, had in
fact Increased the number Of saloons in the
larger towns.
This singular fact received confederation
from statistics gathered in Iowa in 1885 by

Bingham and the ..Examiner."

Much comment has been caused in politi-
cal circles by the recent editorial of the Ex-
aminer indorsing Henry Bingham, one of
Buckley's nominees for Supervisor. For
two years Bingham has been a follower of
David Barry, the dictator of the solid nine
in the Board of Supervisors. Whenever the
"boss" wanted anything done Bingham
could be relied on to second any motion that
Barry would make. and in its reports of the
proceedings of the board it was customary
for the Examiner to refer to the solid nine
wit bout the prefix Mr." They were called
Barry" Bingham" and so on, while SUI
pervisors Ellert and Boyd were accorded the
courtesy Of .'Mr." The problem now to be
considered is: What caused the Examin-
er's change of front?
