HARRIS AT Los ANGELES.
Honest Money audience addressed By
the Democratic Orator.

Honest Money audience addressed by
the Democratic Orator.
LOS ANGELES, CAL, Oct. 19.-Win A.
Harris, an able lawyer and an eloquent
speaker, for many years one of the fore
most advocates of the cause of the Demo
cratic party of Southern California, made
great speech at Hazards Pavilion here
this evening. The meeting was held un-
der the auspices of the Business Mems
Sound Money Club. L. w. Blinn, an old
line Democrat, presided, and before intro
ducing the orator of the evening made a
few telling remarks explaining why he,
for the first time in his life, finds it in
consistent to support the so-called candi-
date of his party, the "Boy Orator.
Harris, on rising co speak, was given an
ovation. In his preliminary remarks
one De La Veaux arose TO dispute som e
assertion relating to a challenge to Harris
by the so-calIed Silver Republican Club of
Los Angeles, when the speaker promptly
called him down, designating him as a
foreign anarchist. The remarks produced
considera bic feeling and cries rang through
the pavilion to "Put him out, put him
out, but Harris insisted that the man
anarchist though he was and born in a
foreign COuHBIy-SQOulQ DC p6rmlLLeQ TO
remain. But upon further disturbance
he was elected from the hall amid much
confusion.
Harris gave a cheerful report of the
meetings which he had addressed in diff
ferent parts of Southern California. The
speaker said that many of these meetings
in favor of Mckinley and sound money
had been presided over by silver haired
Democrats, two of whom had voted for
Jackson. Respecting the challenge from
the so-ealled Silver Republican Club, Har-
ris said he never would paw any attention
to banter emanatlng from any body of
people who were ashamed to confess their
identity to the world. Time and again
these gentlemen had been asked to declare
themselves and publish the names of their
members, but had steadfastIy refused to
do so.
The peaker turned his attention to the
recent utterances of Governor Altgeld in
New York. The assault upon the integrity
of the Supreme Court of the United States
by the Illinois Governor was held up to
ridicule. Passing to the money question,
the speaker exhibited a silver dollar
which contained the required amount OF
coin to be actually worth 81, the enormous
size of which produced loud laughter and
applause.
Charles A. Bariow's aspirations were re-
ferred to, and his recent words of disre-
spect toward Major Mckinley were char
acterized as infamous. Barlow had said
that above picture of NICK inley should
be placed the union lack

SANTA ANA, CAL, Oct. 19.-Hon. Will
liam s. Barnes of San Francisco addressed
the largest indoor meeting of the cam
paign at Trenches Opera-house tonight.
Two thousand persons were present. Mr..
Barnes argument on protection was con-
vincing and his reference to the indus
tries of California was applauded. He
showed how the Wilson bill has closed
many of these industries and worked
heavy loss to the State, and dwelt particu-
larly upon Senator Whites assertion that
the tariff revenues under that measure for
1895 exceeded those of the Mckinley bill
for 1894, showing that every dollar of ex-
cess represented loss to the American
people. He spoke eloquently of the ladies
and advocated equal suffrage in manner
that won great applause.

it is hoped to have as many New York
