The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1892-10-21

Every citizen of San Francisco who wants
an honest city government is earnestly re-
quested TO carefully read the following
platform of the Non-Partisan party and to
study the ticket OF that party which follows
the platform.
The bosses Of the Republican and Demo
cratic parties have ceased fighting each
other and have Joined in q common warfare
upon the Non Partisan ticket
They have called TO their aid ODonnell
and his Republicans, and have issued orders
that since the Non-Partsan ticket cannot
be defeated by fair means fonl means must
be used. Every heller is working night and
day stuffng the register, while the bosses
are arranging plans by which the VIII OF the
people Is to be thHaTled.
Their efforts will be unavailing. The tide
has set in and the bosses will be swamped.
but every Non-Partisan voter must work
and work hard for all that.
Because success is certain, don't relax
your efforts Letthe Non-Partlsan majority
be so great that it will forever settle the ques-
ton of bossism. Those who intend to vote
with the Non Partisans should cut out the
foregoing ticket, put it in their pockets and
carry it with them to the polls, so that they
will have it for references when they come to
stamp their tickets in the booths.
The ticket as given is absolutely correct,
and. whether you vote & entire or in part, il
will furnish you the names OF the Non
Partisan nominees.
Be on the watch for frauds OF every kind.
The bosses are desperate and will resort TO
ANYTHING to win. The "NOD-Partisan side
show" as they called 1t a few weeks ago,
Is now the circus and sideshOws combined,
and the bosses know 1t.
II you do not know the Non- Partisan nomi-
nees personally. take the trouble TO look up
sE~F- anrda how nil md oil ha
found honest men, and when you have
learned their records compare them with
the men you are asked to vote for on the
bosses tickets.
Especially is this true of the Non-Partisan
legislative ticket. Look up the records Of
the men. The Non-Partisans are more than
willing to compare their nominees with the
candidates on the other tickets.
Be sure you vote right, ana be sure that
when you vote the bosses little joker with
bis ring is not near enough to you TO In
validate your ballot.

going to do It,
