From early morning until the polls clo.e
Tomorrow evening every voter Of Jewish ex-
traction will have chance TO resent the in
suit heaped by Nike De Young upon his
race.
Every Jewish vote cast against the candi-
dates OF Mike, Crimmins and Kelly means
resentment Of the manner in which the
chronicle tried to cast opprobrium on l.. r.

The piled-up Indignation of the Hebrews
Will find an outlet at the polls and not
single candidate for the Legislature pledged
to Mike will lie elected ii the Hebrews can

They will also unanimously vote for Ellers
as Mayor, not only because he is their
choice and because they know him TO be the
best man for the place, but also because they
want to show him that no slurs thrown at
him from the heights of the Market-street
tower have shaken the confidence of the
people in his superiority.
There are few things which have stirred
ND more bad feeling on the part of large
community than this Levi Rothschild"
business has done.
Hebrews and gentiles are united in con-
demning the mean and malicious mau-
ner IN VIII ch the Chronicle perverted facts

and. as result, the election will show that
such methods meet with no approval from

having the mask torn from De Youug's
bypocrital face in this matter, because, as
they said, it shows him up In his true colors.
There is bitter taste in the mouths of
the members of the Iron MoIders' Union
whenever they mention Mike de Young.
They hold him responsible for the long
strike and the bloodshed, the starvation,
blighted homes and broken hearts that fol-
lowed in its wake.
Before that strike was ordered the molders
had a powerful organization. They main
tanned a high standard of wages, and took
care of their unfortunate brethren. Times
were dull. and both employers and employees
were satisfied that something had to be done
to arrest general disaster.
The proprietors of the foundries formed
an association aud called upon the unions
Of ironworkers to aid them in sustaining
and building up the iron-maklng Industries
of the city.
The employes-molders. boiler-makers,
machinists. blacksmiths and others-formed
what was called the Iron Trades Confer
ence. This body. in order that it might
uphold the manufacturers and keep its
members busy, agitated in favor of the con-
struciion of all iron work ordered on this
coast by local foundrles and wofkmen
Through lis efforts the Board OF Super
visors compelled oil street railway COM
panies operating plants in this city to have
their rails made in local foundries, and all
was going well with masters and men.
Then Mike de Young began to build his
big chimney. which. as a structure designed
for the escape OF gas. is properly called the
Chronicle building.
Mike, while posing as the true friend of
labor and the foster father of home indus
try. found that he could save $1,000 by hay-
ing the iron for his chimney made in Chi
cago. 1t was made there in spite of the in
dignant protests of manufacturers and men.
The iron conference talked of a boycott,
but they were afraid of Nike and took no
action.
Other builders seeing that Nike was
not punished for his meanDess followed his
example. and the conference, having sur
viVed its usefulness, dshanded.
Then the manufacturers seeing that they.
by De Young's action, would have to CON-
pete with the cheap labor employing
fonndries of the East decided to reduce
wages. The great strike ensued, resulting
In the death Of three men, the loss of
5000 to the Molders' Union and the
partial crippling of the iron industry.

his LETTER TO OTIS DENOUNCED.

So far as California is concerned, there has
never been a more effective campaign docu-
meDt issued than the billetdoux Mike de
Young sent to his dear friend Harrison Gray
Otis of Los Angeles on February II, 1892.
fac-simile of this very confidential and
highly compromising epistle was given In
yesterdays CALL, and for the benefit of
those who would like to have second copy
70 paste into their hats appears agai to-day.
Mike de Young never in all bis life
wrote letter y hich be had more cause to
regret than this one.
OF course he did not think that it would
ever reach the public. but writers of letters
containing slurs On thousands of honest
workingmen should never become seekers
for political preference.
Whenever they do so their utterances
made at other times are liable to be pro-
duced and put on exhibition, that is, IL
they are black on white paper.
The De Young letter was very largely dis

sussed In many circles yesterday and il wa.
The general verdict that it was the height of
imprudence for man who has the aspira-
lions OF the Chronicle'e proprietor to put
nch suicidal expressions in writing.
funny thing in this connection Is that
the very man to whom De Young addressed
this damaging correspondence is the indi-
vidual who secured the famous MurchIson
letter In the campaign OF 1888 for the Re-
publican National Committe.
1t would be naturally supposed that Mr..
Otis had his share of experience with dam
gerous letters in politics; but that he has
learned nothing by past exposures becomes
evident by the reckessness ef his CORE
spOndence with Mike de Young and the
latter's guilty answer secured by The CALL.
AS a matter OF course the people who are
most delighted over THE CALLS exposure
are the wagewOTkers and the organized
workIngmen.
There was great Joy In the camp of the
trades unionists when they read and re-read
Mixes tender message to Otis.
IL was all joy; there was no surprise
mingled with this exuberance Of elatlop, be-
cause 1t was not news to the workingmen
TO hear Mike de Young was their enemy.
They have known that for long time,
and there has been no man In this city more
universally hated among the mechanics and
laborers than the builder of the Chronicle
tower.
One Of the best informed men in labor
circles said last night, at meeting of the
Federated Trades. that the workiugmen
had always looked upon Mike de Young az
their bitterest enemy. and bic paper as on
posed to organized labor.
''But." said he. ''the general public did
not know 1t until THE CALL made that
splendid expose. because Mike has ALWAYS
eunDingly acted as q bypocrite In all mat
ters concerning ns.
'The Chronicle would carefully publish
Just enough OF the labor unions doings To
give its readers the impression that the
woriingmen received proper attention, but
every item was carefully worded and oppo-
sition to our cause could easily be read be-
tween the lines every time such publica-
tion was made"
Al the other delegates to the councils
meeting expressed similar sentiments, and
the De Young-Oiis letter was the source OF
great deal OF discussion among them.
Nearly all Of the speakers remembered
the trouble the Typographical Onion had
with Otis. which was the cause Of the COM
promising letter, and all Of them rejoiced In

French professor of the Wisconsin state

ningham, has been chasing butterflies
in the Wood river country for four weeks
past. The professor has enjoyed his
outing thoroughly. When not adding
to his chronological collection he has
been casting the fly in the northern
crystal streams with splendid success,
in one instance taking six speckled
beauties from one pool, the half dozen
aggregating thirty pounds in weight.
On his arrival here he iealously watched
a box on which was marked, ''yalue,
$3.50" 1t contained about $500 butter
flies and moths which he will add to
his collection at Madison, Wis. The
professor has secured winged beauties
from India, Australia, Borneo, South
America and European countries, num-
bering in all fully $4,000. 1t is one of
the most complete collections extant.
