Big vote VIII Be cast Tor Palmer an d
Buckner To-Day.
The sound-money Democrats of Cali
fornia, who are supporting Palmer and
Buckner for President and Vice-P President,
are feeling much encouraged over the
prospects of their ticket in California.
The electors nominated by this wing OF
the Democratic party, known on the
official ballot as National Democrats, com
prise some of the best known and most
highly respected members of the Demo o.
cratic party, and when they call the roll
of the rank and file of their organization
it is found to be composed of representa-
tive men throug hout the State.
No better illustration of this fact could
be found than in the way in which they
responded to a request for funds with
which to defray the necessary expenses of
the campaign. The contributions came
in so freely that the committee was COM
PEELED to call halt in order to obviate the
EN- barrassment of a surplus.
In contrast with this was the predica-
ment of the so-caIled Regular Dem ocratic
State Com mittee that has been cram ped

COWAROLY ATTACK,
Reputable Citizens Tricked Into

mans Record.
Manly Letter of Explain tion Fiom
Rhodes Borden - Bettman'S
Friends Also Duped.

political trick has just been played
with the intention of injuring the candi-
dacy of Sig Bettman, regular Republican
nominee for the Assembly in the Fortietn
District, that would do honor to the brains
of Buckley or the paunch of Rainey.
1t is believed that the scheme originated
in the Sheriff's office, where Mr.. Bettman
is havine an active fight made against
him on account of his antipathy to the re-
pealing of the fee bill, estimated to save
the taxpayers of this municipality about
$50, 900 year.
The way the job was worked was in this
wise: A few days ago a document was
prepared eulogizing L. NJ. Manner, the
Democratic nominee for the Assembly
from the Fortieih. The names of several
influential citizens were then secured to
this paper.
WHAT was the surprise and bewilder-
ment when circular of two pages was
issued and assiduously circulated in the
district, bearing on one side the signed
summary of Mr.. Manners virtues and on
the other a rabid attack on Mr.. Bettman's S
attitude on several street-railway propc-
sitions. Not only was this addition an
arrant misre presenta ton, but the method
of arrangement of the circular was such
as to convey the idea that the signers not
only Endorsed the statements in regard to
Manners record and character but the
attack on Bettman.
odes Borden, one of the signers, at
once addressed an open letter to Bettman
deprecating the trick played on himself.
He said that while he had signed he in
dorsement OF Bettman be had no idea
page would be added attacking a man
with whom he had not even a passing
acquaintance, and with whose record he
was totally unacquainted.
Friends of Bettman yesterday issued a
dodger wholly and forcibly iustifying his
action in regard 10 the street railway
proposition and showing him to De on the
side OF right and the people. The follow
ing gentlemen Who were duped into sign
ing the mass CT representations against
Mr.. Bettman are warm political support
ers of his in this campaign: NJ. Gold

Brady, 23o1 Pine; s. Hoffman, 1912 Geary.
No right-minded man will let this politi-
cal dodge prejudice him against Mr.. Bett-
man, but, on the contrary, he has gained
many friends by il.

Third Congregational Church. For the
last six weeks Mr. Dickson has acted as
supply at the Fourth Congregational
Church, and his preaching made such a
favorab bic impression that he received a
call, W which was accepted.
The Presbyterian Ministerial Union has
been making efforts to have the law en-
forced, which closes saloons on election
day. According 10 the report of Rev. r.
w. Reynolds made before the union
yesterday there is little hope, however,
that the law will be carried into effect.
MIR. Reynolds said that at the office of
the Chief of Police he had been informed
that the officers, if for personal reasons
alone, were most anxious to see the law
enforced, as the closing of the saloons
would save them a vast amount of work
on election day. ''The police judges are
at fault" said Mr.. REYNOLDS, "for the
police say that the police judges are out
for votes, and il is impossible to get them
to make a convection on election day. As
fast as the patrol wagon brings men in,
the jud ges release them without bail, and
on that account it is hopeless for the
police TO try to keep the saloons closed on
election day, as the saioOn-keepers simply
laugh at the police"
Regret was expressed by the parties
present that such report should be given
of the police judges, but no formal action
was taken in the matter.
The paper of the day at the Ministerial
Union was on 1.-THE Relation of Character
and Life TO Preaching" and it was read
by DR.. Professor Landon of San Anselmo.
