PAY THE FDDLER.-It is at last
learned why the arc light at the arm
ory was not lighted for the Bennett
silver meeting last week. 1t seems
that alight had been put IN for the
Republican committee previously, and
that it had not been paid for, hence
the light company thereafter refused
toilluminate for politicians except fol
cash in advance. The Bryan commit

lights and have pursued cash in adj

LOST THEIR SHOES.
Oakland Customers Politely Told
They tan Find Them in
San jose.

OAKLAND, CAL, Dec. 2. = Several
people in Oakland are looking for their
shoes. Some weeks ago cooperative
shoe repairing factory opened on TeIe-
graph avenue, purchased a fancy cart, did
considerable poster advertising, and cut
rates for soling and heeling to about one
third the usual price.
This raised war with the regular cob
blers, and few mornings after opening.
the new store which had been gaudily
painted was found to be plastered and
smeared all over with daubs of black
paint. Windows and signs were bIotted
ut,.and the disfgurement caused some
sympathy for the unlucky cobblers.
That sympathy, however, has dis
appeared with the company. Several
people who had entrusted their WORKOUT
shoes to the cobblers called at the store a
couple of days ago to receive them. They
were surprised to see a sign in the window
which was all that remained of the once
sfourishiug cut-rate cobblery. The sign
read, Parties who have not called for
their shoes can recover them by sending
to San Jose"

the labor element was going to take def

that Mavor 'Davie is their choice for
M.ayor:

::Davie will again go before the people,
tBouSA it is not yet certain in what man.
Her,. 1t is not impossible that he may
receive the regular Republican nomina-
ton, and this backed by the labor vote
would present formidable 'front.' On
the; other hand, the Municipal League has
already given notice, through its organ,
that.it will have a ticket in the field, and
DIS that organ has been perslstently op-
posed to Mayor Davie throughout his OF

= receive the support of the league Four
years ago the Municipal League carried
everything. Two years ago their candi-
date, J. w. Nelson, was easily defeated by
John L. Davie. This year there are
among its prominent members two or
three who would like to be the city's
chief executive. and up 10 this time no
name on behalf of the league has been
defsitely advanced, although it is we'll
known that either Councilmen Dow, 1owle

uQtfons
The feeling is rapidly growing stronger
That there Is no need for any interference
in local politics by non-partisan party,
slfow that the Republicans have settled
their minor differences and present solid
front.
The many struggles during the past six
MONTHS between the various factions OF
the Republican party ended in an un-
looked for harmony, and there is no reason
why the party should not put forward q
complete ticket unhampered by any Nom
Partisan interference.
The Populists are again divided. One
wing wants to put full municipal ticket
. In the held, and the others in the face of
recent campaign developments think they
e had better lie low for a little while and
content themselves with indorsing
pominees OF other parties who may be
favorable to the PopuIist platform.
The Democrats are doing nothing but
talking. No one of the many leaders knows
Just " hat action will be taken, but they all
concede that there VIII be no more fusion
farces. "A this early time appearances
are that there viii be but two candidates
Tor each office. one Of which will be Re-
publican and the other combination of
all the other element.
