KAHLER'S WORK OF ART.

Mr., Flerts Canvass" as displayed in
the window Of THE CALLS Market-street
branch office. is attracting deal OF atten-
ton these DAYS from pedestrians, ard often
large crowds gather in front CT the window.
Now there are TWO reasons for these
crowds. The first is Mr.. EllertS ever-ln-
creaslng popularity as the NOn-PartiSan
candidate for Mayor. The second is That
the crayon drawing of the POI ular eandl-
date is really an excellent piece of work.
J, Kahler, The CALLS artist, who Is re-
sponsible for lis production, is receiving
compliments from all sides for this splendid
piece of work.
The likeness is a striking one, true to ma
ture, and showing In no small degree the
practical haL OF master artist.
The best portrait artists OF the city say
the technique is good, and everybody can
see for himself that tile likeness is true.
The detective camera to be used by the
NOu-PaTtisans On election day 10 eaten stuf-
ers is also drawing its share Of sight-seeTs.
MI Ebert is a handsome man, and no
lady who passes The CALL window can
refrain from casting an admiring glance at
his fBe face and manly eyes, as depicted by
MI. Kaher.
AS Mr. Ebert on canvas is an entire sue
cess, so is Mr.. Ebert in his canvass.
Our ablest Supervisors canvass for the
mayoralty is hourly and daily growing in
popularity.
Were the election 10 be delayed ten days
longer the chances would be strongly In
favor Of his election by an almost unanimous
vote.
The young men of the city are rallying to
his support with unprecedented Yigor and
enthusiasm.
The older men recognize In his election
speedy delIYeTaucs from many of the deeply
~ mol i'm,
To him is due the credit for driving out Of
the city the embeLzlement- breeding pool
sellers.
His firm stand In the Board Of Supervisors
for The ordinance TO close the Cremorpe
eTime-hatcheTy has won for him the undi-
vlded support Of all the moral elements of
San Francisco society.
1t is known that he Incurred the hostility
and active enmity Of Martin Kelly for his
bold and independent stand on this burning
question.
The circumstance that Mr.. Ebert at the
election two years ago ran 5000 ahead of his
ticket and was returned TO his seat in the
Board of Supervisors by q plurality Of
10000 is an auguTy of victory for him next
Tuesday.
Ii is also remembered in his favor tha.
Mr.. Ebert fought Buckley's solid nine in
and out of season, and constantly held up
their bOOdling schemes to the gaze Of the
suffering taxpayers.
All the people. and their name Is legion,
who are opposed 10 the street extension
jobs are a unit for Ebert for Mayor. Dur
ing his four years IN the board he enegetc-
ally fought all the extension schemes with
the single exception Of Seventeenth street
which had the unanimous Endorsement and
approval 0! the property-owners of the sec
ton affected.
He has thus saved hundreds of poor
people from being assessed out of house
and home 10 meet iniquitous exactions.
Honest AID sincere, intelligent and pre-
gressiye young and ambitious. his record
Is unsulied and unstaned. The popular
verdict Is that lie is the most faithful ser
want who has served San Francisco for
many years.
All legitimate projects for identifying or
improving the city nave met with his sup
port ana approval.
No other candidate presents so many
elements of strength before the people as
the NOn-PartisaD candidate for MaVOr
