AT THE WIGwAM-
A Meeting of the Victorious Republican
Ye0manrv.

Henmanrv
The Wigwam was packed to its fullest
capacity last night by an enthusiastic throng
of Republicans to celebrate the overwhelm-
ing victory achieved by Markham and his
associates on the ticket, and among the
numbers were many ladies who took the
liveliest interest in all that was said and
done. 1t was evident at glance that the
result was one that had pleased every Re-
publican in the building, and no one be-
grudged the Democrats the pleasure which
they were striving to derive from the long
distance Jubilee which was being held at
Metropolitan Hall under the auspices of
ex-Boss Buckley's gang Of "heelers."
When the meeting was called to order
there were fully 1000 people in attendance.
and W. Fl. l.. Barnes lost no time in pro-
cesdiRg to business Then he he's said l. n,,
shake over the magnificent victory which
the Republican party has achieved, both
State and municipal. l understand the
Democrats are celebrating elsewhere in this
city victory in the East, but when | think
of how far it is to Pennsylvania | know how
hungry and how footsore the lambs will be
before they get there.
Whatever may have been the cause of
the revolution in the East we of California
are proud to know that no local issues di-
vided the Republican party in this State. 1t
IL
tration of this State is in the hands of the
Republican party. draw no lesson of dis
enlargement, no sense of disbursement
from the result in the East. Many repre-
sentatives, | understand, have been elected
to Congress who are not in sympathy with
the Democratic party, and who. when the
time arrives will be found voting with Cal
ifornia for protection to American indus
tries.
NO Sinking OF RESPONSIBILITY.
1.-THE Republicans have control of this
State and this municipality. The burden is
great, but there will be no Sinking from
the responsibility. 1t Will be for us to
establish a power for good in this State for
fifty years or to do wrong and bring upon us
the condemnation of the people of the State.
''When We shall send Senator Stanford
back as an answer to the assaults which
have been made upon him. we shall have
but done our duty. We have the municipal
government and no longer shall any one
man sit at the portals of the gate and demand
tribute OF every man who seeks public
position. We owe something to the Re
form Democracy, and L want to say
that in the middle of the day, when Captain
Mcdonald saw a chance that O'Donnell was
about to be elected he used every exerton
to elect Mr.. Sanderson. Ii saved the State
from disgrace, and yet am told there were
Republicans who scratched Sanderson and
voted for O'Dcnnell. If L had my choice
between voting for ODOnnell and the devil
I'd vote for the devil"
Dir. Barnes then introduced w. w. Nor
row, who was received with cheers, and
spoke briefly as follows: 81 am here TO re-
joice with you over the victory in California.
1t will carry good cheer to our Administers
ton at Washington and to our gallant
leader. Thomas b. Reed of Maine. We are
temporarily defeated, but the workingmen
of this country will see to 1t that the Nc
Kinley bill is not repealed. Look over that
measure and you will see almost every pro-
vision is for revival of Industries that
we're almost slaughtered by the last Demo-
cratic administration.
II tell you, in spite OF the Democratic
sweep the Republican party is safe, and
sure to elect the next President. am proud
of the Pacific Coast. The rays of the sunset
will yet shine all over the East They are
turning TO us, not only for what they eat,
but for political thought"
At the conclusion OF Mr.. Morrow's adj
dress Chairman Barnes said he had hoped
to introduce the greatest political phenom-
enon of the age, the newly elected member
of Congress from the Fifth District, Eugene
+. Loud, but he found that that gentleman
had been called away on business of an
urgent nature.
RATHER BE A CALIFORNIAN.
He therefore introduced j. G. Campbell.
who said: "After about five weeks work in
this campaign my voice has given out, and
