This region has not been neglected because
rievious Senators have not resided here.
1t is absurd to pretend that the election OF a
Senator whose abode is in some other part
of California will result injuriously to San
Francisco.
The Examiner affects to deprecate the
raising of sectional ISSUE. Urah Heep

that large appropriations are needed around
the bay and shall try to so conduct myself
that every impartial man will justify my
course. There has never been Senator
elected who has lived south Of Palo Alto.
Surely man is not criminal because he
suggests that these fayors should be passed
around once or twice in a century. Such
course is dictated by policy, justice and
common-sense. 1t is source OF no little
satisfaction TO me that my most enthusiast
tic and numerous supporters are not. con-
fined TO any particular quarter. There are
nearly sixty Democratic spapers IN Cali

are published in thirIy-eighI different
counties, extending from Siskiyoh to san

| observe that the Examiner endeav0rs
to convince its readers that Mr.. Cleveland
is unfriendly to me. This is wholly untrue.
Ny relations with Mr.. Cleveland are cor

out those legitimate personal alliances and
influences witch are so necessary to A sue
cessful legislative career at our national
capital.
In conclusion / will call attention to the
following extracts from the San francisco
Report and Oakland Times, written just
after the San Jose convention III 1880.
VIII the Examiner call me egotistieal be-

associates? l have never said or thought
such Dice things of myself. The credibility
of these witnesses will not be denied by
those who are now assailing me. Such
denial would be embarrassing. Iqnote:

"The speech of Stephen M. White In
Withdrawing from the Senatorial contest
has unquestionably made him the greatest
man in the Democratic party, and his
friends regard the deep and heartfelt ap-
planse with which he was greeted as by FAR
greater and better Endorsement OF his aui-
billions than any set of resolutions could
ever have been. The speech was almost
the sole topic of conversation here yester-
day and last night outside OF the guberna-
