The San Francisco call., 1896-10-01
THE REPUBLICAN TICKET.

The Republican local and legislative
ticket represents the best elements in the
community's business and social life. while
the platform of the party declares en-
phatically for those principles of govern
ment which are known to be most con-
ducive to the general good of the peo-
pie. 1t is of the highest importance
to all interests that Colonel Taylor be
Taylor and his associates on the ticket be
elected. Laying aside the ethical phase
of proper administration of the public
concerns of the people, San Francisco
more especially is in need of a strong and
fearless business administration. There
are vast industrial and commercial en-
terprises which need to be made to feel
that they will have that encouragement
which comes of faith in the ability and
integrity of those who MAKE and ad-
minister law, so that they may not hesi-
tate to multiply the volume of their
operations.
With an administration that gives assur-
would be substantial increases in invest
ments in active business, as well as in
property Improvements, to establish fixed
incomes; but such assurances can only
be given by selecting men for public
Office whose names themselves would be
ample guarantee of a prudent and thor
oughly honest administration. If that
shall be done trade and traffic will take
courage and widen and deepen the chan
nels of their going and coming and ex-
tend the territory of their distribution. A
common-sense business administration is
what San Francisco needs.
With Colonel Taylor at the head of the
municipal government the community
would feel safe in its property and individ :
ual rights, and to secure them in full is
the ultimate purpose of a wise and
sound administration. Colonel Taylor is a
consistent Republican, but as Mayor, he
would be above political environment and
give the people an administration that
would be conspicuous for honest effort to
better the conditions of business and social
existence,

DEMORALIzED DEMOCRACY.

Ask any Democrat in California whom
his party would elect to the United States
Senate Ii 1t should have majority in the
next Legislature. Ask any Democrat in
San Francisco whether his party is repre-
sented by Buckley or by Rainey. The
answer to either of these questions will
show you how completely the party is
divided, how thoroughly it Is sdemorallzed.
Decent Democrats are .dumfounded and
the ''push" and the ''pulP' are going to
the "demnition bowwows."
1t is not strange that these things are so.
For years past the better element of the
Democratic party has been steadily
crowded out of the party councils. This
year the crowding has been pushed to a
veritable stampede. Rival bosses have
divided the party into rival factions. De-
cent Democrats can enlist under neither
Buckley nor Rainey. They must stand
aside and wait.
1t would profit good citizen nothing
to beat Buckley by the triumph of Rainey.
AS little profit would be gained by revers-
ing the process. The triumph of either
would mean the elevation to power of
some of the worst elements of the City.
There is nothing for respectable Demo-
Gratis to do in local politics but to emulate
the patriotic example of those sterling
Democrats who in National politics have
resolved to free their party of Organism
by voting the Republican ticket this year
and showing the party bosses that they
must not go too far.
If the triumph of the bosses in the camp
has demoralized the respectable element
of the party the desertion of that element
has in turn bewildered the bosses. The
Buckleys and Raineys have counted on
the stalwart Democrats as "yellow dog"
men who would support the ticket under
any circumstances. They now see that
they were mistaken and as a result there is
confusion, discord and dependency in
both camps.
Demoralized Democracy has ceased to
be power in this City. 1t is thoroughly
discredited. The bosses at war with one
another can exert no force that the people
need fear if they have the wisdom to unite.
Why should good men take part in a
wrangle between such men as Buckley and
Rainey2 Why should not good Democrats
redeem their party by abandoning to de-
feat and discontinue the bosses and the
gangs that seek to disgrace it?
The San Francisco call., 1896-10-01
COMPLETE VICTORY.

The claim of the Auditorium convention
to represent the Republican party of San
Francisco has been confirmed beyond
further dispute. The State Central Com
mittee, following independently the pre-
cedent set by Registrar Hinton, has de-
cided with but single q dissenting voice
that it was the only rightful Republican
convention in San Francisco, and that the
ticket nominated by it is entitled to the
support of all loyal Republicans.
The decision given by the committee is
victory for regularity. It is victory for
law. 1t is decision that was foreseen
from the beginning by every man who has
any intelligent knowledge of party govern
ment in this country. The State Commit
tee being composed of impartial Repubi-
cans could not have done otherwise than
it did. The law and the equities OF the
case were all on the side of the Audito-
rum convention.
The result of the contest is of more than
local Importance. In making this fight
John D. Spreckels was fighting for organ
lied Republicanism ali over the State.
His battle was the battle for the whole
party, and the Republican organization is
to-day stronger in every section OF Cali
fornia, by reason OF the success gained
through his straightforward, honest and
fearless leadership. He stands the recog-
nized and victorious champion of the party
organization everywhere.
1t is not likely there will be any further
dispute over this question, which should
never have been disputed at all. As The
CALL pointed out from the beginnin & there
was never any real doubt of the right OF
the claim of the Auditorium convention.
1t is well enough, however. that it should
have been decided by the highest author
ity of the party in the State. 1t has now
been decided. Let us hear no more con-
tentions in Republican ranks. Let us
unite and go forward to victory.
The San Francisco call., 1896-10-01
STOP FIGHTING.

Stop fighting. The time has come for
Republicans to unite for victory. The last
controversy in the party in this City has
been settled by the decision of the State
Central Committee. This is the highest
authority OF the Republican party IN the
State. There should be no question of re-
volt against its decision. All Republicans
should loyalty support the ticket which it
has indorsed and enter vigorously upon
the work of electing Colonel Taylor Mayor
of San Francisco.
The men who in this contest have been
supporting the Republican committee OF
which Mr.. Manwaring is chairman and
the convention over which MIR. Riordan
presided have set the example which
their opponents should now follow. They
have frankly consented to the withdrawal
of their candidates for E,ector and for
Congress in the Fourth District and are
now cordially supporting Mr.. Spear fol
Elector and Mr.. O'Brien for Congress.
They are doing this because they are Re-
publicans, because they stand for party
loyalty, party harmony and party victory.
They have no intention to continue the
fight in that district except as Repub-
icans united against the foes of the party.
The example thus honestly and Loyalty
set should be as honestly and Loyalty fol-
lowed. Mr.. Sonntag, Mr.. Ruef and their
friends have now an opportunity to snow
the sterling character of their Republi-
canism. Let them accept the decision
that has been given against them without
further attempts at prolonging the dissen.
sion. There can be no humiliation in bow
Ing to the decision of the State Central
Committee. Every Repu blican must do
that. The way to party harmony is open
to them, and when they join the ranks
and take part in the battle they will have
a share in the victory in November

OBEDIENCE TO AUTHORITY.

The State Central Com mittee having
confirmed and ratified the regular Repub-
lican nominations, there remains no
ground for any one to offer as an excuse for
not giving hearty and loyal support to the
ticket headed by Colonel Taylor. The
proceedings leading up to the nomina-
tions have been pronounced legal and In
conformity to the usages of the Republi-
can party, and the same decision makes it
incumbent upon every Republican to
cheerfully acquiesce and give his best
service to the cause for which the ticket
stands and represents.
However widely different opinions may
have been as to how the party could best
be served, there is now no valid reason
why any one should hesitate to indorse
the work of the convention and take his
place in the line of battle and fight for
victory. The Republican party stands for
principles of government and not for in
dividual political advantage. The party
is greater than the individual, but it can
not apply its principles unless its rank
and file stand together in harmony. Nor
need victory be expected unless there is
not only willing but hearty recognition of
the authority of those selected by the
party as a whole to direct the general
movement.
The decision of the State Central Com
mittee was not made In haste, nor did
personal likes or dislikes enter into the
deliberations. 1t was question of evil
dence based upon the customs of the
party, and in confirming the regularity of
the Taylor ticket" the committee simply
did what was required of it under party
usages. But it is not now question of
faction or misunderstanding. All that
has been settled by an authority which
every true Republican will gladly recog-
nize and willingly obey.
The success of the Republican party in
all past contests could be traced directly
to the harmony which existed between
the several committees themselves, and
between them and the rank ard file; but
there can be no harmony, and certainly
no victory, if good feeling and singleness
of purpose do not prevail throughout the
party. We believe that every Republican

And the slow, sweet ioy-dawn there
Under the dusk of her hair.

Of heart that feels no pain
At the sob of the aut umn rain,
And takes no breath OF glee

Over songless solitudes;
