AND PURCHASING
POWER CONTRASTED.
Ringing Speeches by Hon. F. x. Schoonmaker of
New Jersey and by Ex-senator Charles
N FELTON,.

the political issues of the day and decide in
our own minds upon the policy which We
shall pursue In my opinion, fellow-citizens,
never but on two great historic occasions. SO
memorable as not to need naming, has this
country ever been confronted by more serious
or alarming conditions.
Not only the peace and prosperity of the
Nation but the stability of this great Govern
ment is at stake. Never before in the history
of this great country have we ever witnessed
such an intense depression of our mercantile
interests: never before in the history of this
country have we been in that peculiar fnan-
cial condition which is creating unrest
throughout the length and bread tn of the land
as at this time.
The result is that some emillious-approach-
ing 2, 200 OOO-of citizens are thrown into en-
| forced idleness. They neither create wealth
| nor can they consume it, the result being
| loss to the Nation; and never can we look for
| ward to win that degree OF prosperity which
we once enjoyed until something is done to
| set at rest this fear which disturbs the entire
community and put the idle laborers at work.
Fellow-citizens, the times are serious, in
deed so serious as to require the calm and set
| tied thought of the best and the honest minds;
too serious to indulge III prejudice or passion;
| too serious to inscr1be upon the banner OF any
| party dishonesty and reputation, because no
1 political authority. can exempt us from follow
| ing the old motto which we learned at the fire.
slde-that honesty is the best policy.
1t now becomes my pleasing duty to intro
! duce to you the Hon. Beu jamin Butterworth
of Ohio AS his lame has preceded him, it IS
| sufficient only to mention his name in order to
| introduce him.
| The Hon. BEN jamin Butterworth, on
being introduced, was greeted with a sue.
cession of cheers and bursts of applause.
In the course of his brilliant address he
| said:
Like your chairman have lost part
of my voice. / have been traversing this
glorious State from north to south and
the changes of climate have treated me
without mercy. No Californian can be
made to confess that there are any draw
backs to California's general delightful
ness. / suppose that's SO; but | wish this

The old pavilion in what was once
Woodward's Gardens last night resumed
the festal gayety of bygone times, Ben

maker being the magnets which attracted
to the historic edifice cultured and en-
thusiastic audience, numbering at the
lowest estimate 5000.
Both speakers are statesmen of we'll
earned renown, each having brilliant
record in Congress, where Mr.. Butter

maker New Jersey.

prolonged and enthusiastic recall, the
singers gave "The Fellow I'd Like tc

home thrusts at the 'other fellows which
called forth much applause.
Charles L. FELTON,, the chairman, was
received with round of cheers and spoke
as follows:
Fellow-citizens: The time draws near when
we as people are not only to select the CHIEF
magistrate OF the Nation, but what is quite o1
more importance to decide upon the principles
by which we shall be governed for the next

PALMER PETITION READY.
The Sound Money Democrats Are
Pushing Their Cam
paiQn,

The petition which will get the Palmer
and Buckner electors on the ballot was
completed yesterday by the Democratic
Sound money League, and it will soon be
filed with the Secretary of State.
There are just about 5000 names, several
hundred more than were necessary. Most
of the signatures were obtained in San
Francisco by paid canvassers, but great
number were secured by voluntary work.
Bunches of 100, 200 and 300 were received
from towns all over the State, from Eu-
reka to San Diego. No attempt was made
to get any III Los Angeles, where the
sound-money Democrats are all out for
Mckinley.
The League is now mainly at work on
the distribution of sound money cam
paign literature. So far $4,000 pieces,
comprising ten publications, have been
distributed, mainly in San Joaquin, Con-
ira Costa, Sonoma and northern counties.
They have gone to 1900 individual ad-
dresses, mainly of farmers. Sixty dis
tributing correspondents have received
100 copies of each document. The distri-
button through the central and southern
portions of the State will now begin and
1000 voters will be individually ad-
dressed. A big ratification will be held
in San Francisco soon. 1t has not vet
been decided whether to put speakers in

Return of the Astronomers Of

Expedition.
Professor Schaeberle Explains Why He
Was Unable TO Photograph
the Eclipse.

Professor J. NJ. Schaeberl of the Lick
Observatory and his three companions
C. Burchalter, Chabot Observatory, Dr..
Shuey and Louis @. misunderstanding
the Lick Observatory expedition to take
observations of the SUMS eclipse in Japan
on August 8, returned yesterday on the
steamer China.
The funds for the expedition were fur
nished by Colonel c. f. Crocker, and the
party left here with all the necessary
equipment to make thorough photo
graphic observations.
I" regret to say that the expedition was
an absolute failure" said the professor
when seen last night at the Lick House
+" We left here June 1 and reached Ak
Ike shi, on the island of Yezo, with our
forty foot telescope and the smaller ones.
I'VE established four stations $50 miles
apart. At Akkeshi I remained with
went to Monpetsu. Our native friend and
assistant, Abahiri, graduate of the I'm
perial University of Toxic, established
two other stations.
1.-THE eclipse occurred at 1920 O'clock in
the afternoon, at time when it was
cloudy or foggy or raining at our respec-
tive stations. Under the circumstances
we got absolutely no chance to do a single
thing but deplore our bad luck.
I'VE were not the only unfortunate
ones. The Amherst expedition, headed
by DR.. Todd, which left here on the yacht
Coronet last spring with enough instru-
ments to overstock the country, left the
yacht. at Yokohama and made its way
to Isashai, near Monpetsu, where all the
instruments were mounted. Well, the
same state of affairs occurred there that
occurred where we were, and as conse-
quence the party is on its way home now
as crestfallen as we are ourselves"

Dudley Higgins and Michael kenny.

at the lnglesi6e racetrack last night about

After they left the saloon the dispute
was renewed, and Kenny ran into another
saloon and borrowed revolver. He went
hunting for Higgins, and as soon as he
met him he presented the revolver at him
and fired. Higgins instinctively held mn
his right hand to protect his face and the
bullet went through the fleshy part of his
hand between the thum and forefinger.
Kenny was arrested and charged with
