Mr.. Barnes then proceeded to speak OF
the campaign generally. He dwelt uD0n
Republican issues as touching the prntec-
tive policy, aud then spoke of municipal
matters. He said as far as he was con-
cerned he had never as District Attorney
overlooked an opportunity of bringing be-
fore the Grand Jury any case whenever
the circumstances seemed TO warran:
speedy investlga ion. Politics had never
caused him to swerve from the line OF
what he considered his duty. AS District
Attorney he only recOgni Zed his duty. Ii
any man, whether he had a political lnflu-
ence or not, had been engaged In crooked
work he would not hesitate in the future
any more than he had in the past in bring
ing him before the Grand jury, and doing
al in his power TO have him indicted.

hearers TO stand by the Republican ticket
from TOP TO bottom and use their best

When the speaker retired he was re-
called by a burst of applause. He came
forward again and blushingly compli-
mented the many ladies who were in the
audience upon the active interest which
they displayed in politics. He advised
them to STAY with the party and see to it
that Their husbands and sweetheartS voted
the ticket straight.

INTERESTING VIEWS ON THE WAR
Rev. Gilbert Reid Describes the Situ-
alton and Chinese Queer Ways in
Times of Peace.

Rev. Gilbert Reid, New York mission
airy of the Presbyterian church, arrived in
this city yesterday on his return to China,
where he will institute a mission among
the higher classes of Chinese. His objec-
tive point is Picking. where he is we'll
known by Chinese officials of high degree.
Thence he will go wherever these officia Is
and his friends believe he can do the most
good, not alone as missionary, but as a
peace agent.
For seven years Mr.. Reid lived among
the Chinese in Gilman Flu, which is now a
portion of the seat of the no-Jepanese
war. His knowledge Of the country and
the people is extensive, and from it he is
inclined TO conclude that the japanese
may not be able to reach Picking before
the winter. in which case fighting on land
must cease for several mon hs. The cessa-
ton of hostilties, he believes. will give

small end of the entire business.
In fact he was not in it,

Gicted complete paralysis of American

was far from likely. Even now with two
years TO run the admin stration had
proved itself traitor to the country. As
President. Grover Cleveland had proved
himself dismal failure. [Applause.l
Touching upon local Officers the speaker
predicted that the Republican ticket from
the head down could not fail Of being
elected. He wanted to see a Republican
majority rolled up that would sound across
the con ,Ineat and prove to the adminisira-
ton in Washington as we'll as TO Eastern
Democrats that California was upalter-
ably opposed to measures which were not
IN accordance with the constitution OF the
country even. AS for Mr.. Estee, the
speaker said he could not say too much.
Mr.. Estee represented, he said. al that
was progressive and earnest IN all that
favored improvement of the condition not
only of the workingman but of the farmer:

William S. Barnes, the candidate for
District Attorney, when introduced was
received with salyo OF applause. The
enthusiasm eliminated in three cheers for
the popular young attorney. After IL had
subsidized he expressed his thanks for the
welcome rendered him, and modestly as
serted that he hardly thought himself de-
serving of it. He said that during his two
terms in office he had tried to serve the
best interests Of the peonle il every way.

Kung Yieh presented Mr.. Reid with two

Mr.. Reid met Ii Hung Chang in Peking
and found him more inclined to joke and
indulge in pleasantrieS than to discuss
affairs or be dignified. Chang adopted a
good deal OF the familiarity of foreigners
from whom he learned much. In spite of
this agreeable reception Mr.. Reid stated
that other high officials he interview ed
