ALL MONEY CAN BUY
The Republican Demonstration Tonight to Be
of Some naynituje

of Some Nagntu1e
Tonight the Republicans will open up
the campaign in Southern California
with a grand blowout at Hazards pa
vilion, to be preceded by street parade.
There was not enough enthusiasm here
at home so it became necessary to i'm
port some from San Francisco and Oak
land. Local oratorical talent was also
deficient so imported speakers and i'm
ported enthusiasm will be the order of
the day.
The Republican alliance of Oakland
with the speakers and a portion of the
Republican state central committee will
arrive in the city this morning at $50 on
a special train of Pullman palace cars
furnished by the Southern Pacific rail-
road for the occasion free of all cost.
The train will be one of the most lux
urious that ever entered the Arcade de-
pot. 1t will be complete in every re-
spect and everything that it was posi-
BILE for the railroad company to furnlsh
for the comfort of its guests will be at
hand.
The Pullman palace cars will be the
Salinas, the Los Gatos. the San Vicente
and the Paso Robles. In addition there
will be a dining car and a baggage car.
which will make up the train.
Accompanying the train, so it is un-
president of the Southern Pacific rail
road and Republican candidate for
elector at large.
Another distinguished visitor to Los
Angeles will be Stephen T. Gage. the
gentleman who is at the head of the
political bureau of the southern Paciflc,
a keen, shrewd man who makes and un
makes United States senators, con-
gressmen and judges.
The Republican alliance OF Oakland IS
a political organization that has always
been used ever since its formation 20
assist the railroad lmpany in handing
Alameda county politics. The alliance IN
the recent congressional contest in the
Third district supported Judge F'rick for
the Republican nomination as against
Congressman Hilborn, the anti-rail-
road man. The alliance was completely
wiped off the face of the earth Con-
gressman Hilborn carrying Alameda
county and securing denomination
despite the effort of Mr.. Gage and all
of the allies of the railroad company.
And now the Oakland alliance visits
Southern California to assist in intro
ducing railroad politics and methods in
Los Angeles. Some of the push here
are well up in this line already how
ever, and they need no instruction.
Another of the distinguished guests
will be Judge Richard B. Carpenter,
who, during the term that he represent
ed Los Angeles county in the state sen.
ate was the representative of the rail-
road company in that body, and who
has ever since been connected with the
law department of the corporation.
Judge Carpenter will tell the people Of
Los Angeles why they should vote
against Bryan and silver.
The other orators of the evening will
be Irving M. Scott of the Union iron
works, who is always having trouble
with his workmen over wages, and who
is now greatly exercised lest they will
be paid in SO cent dollars.
George A. Knight. Gen. W. H L.
Barnes and Samuel Shortridge, the gen
tleman John D. Spreckels will endeavor
20 send to the United States senate to
succeed George C. Perkins, will also
orate.
When the train arrives this morning
there will be a delegation of Republi-
cans at the depot to meet it and greet
the visitors.
At l p. m. the procession will move
to Pasadena, where a meeting will be
held at the wigwam during the after
noon.
one OF the great men of the meeting
today will be Capt. II. z. Osborne. the
editor of the Evening Express, who is
also the chairmarlof the auxiliary COM
mittee of the Republican state CEN
trail committee, which has its headquar-
ters in this city. CEptain Osborne's po-
sition is one which will bring him to the
front today and tonight.
Col Hellison Clay Otis will have a
chair on the platform tonight as vice
president, with about 100 others. Col
Hellison will not be compelled this time
to sit on the same chair with Captain
Osborne. The necessity for this will be
obviated. for Captain Osborne will be
well to the front with the big guns. where
his position as chairman of the auxiliary
committee places him. Col Fellison
will be compelled to play second fiddle.
If money, the plentiful and even waste
full expenditure of it, can make sue
cess out of political meeting the one
that will be held, tonight ought to be
the greatest ever seen in this part of the
state. The barrel has been turned loose
and thousands of dollars have been
spent in working it up and securing
special attractions. There will un-
doubtedly be a great display. but as to
how many votes the whole affair will
make for Mckinley, Hanna and the gold
standard remains TO be seen.
