CAN
YOU

Sell me a Diamond as cheaply
as / can get one from the
States? This is a question we
are often asked. We answer:
Yes, we not only can; but we
do.
We have had many oppor-
tunities for comparison, and
we have never found that our
prices suffered by such com
parison.
The trouble is that too many
people take too much for grant
ed. They believe that such and
such is the case, and do not
take the trouble to look care
fully into the matter.

a LIE As USUAL.

IN Christmas day the Examiner published
| lie to the effect that Ave candidates the
- fusion ticket not freeholders. The cum
ming of this lie wholly in the fact that but two
days interviewed between the date OF publication and
the election. AS both the intervening days pub
lie holidays the rascals hoped the lie would escape
refutation until it had accomplished the object OF de-
ceiving election day as many as could be induced
to believe it.
Fortunately the rascal hope frustrated.
Afhdavits and statements from the gentlemen as
sailed published in The Call yesterday, completely
reute the lie and expose the mendacity OF its fabr
Gator. 1t is another of a lie nailed, another in
stance OF the detection of the Examiner in the per-
petration OF trick of contemplate meanness,
That the yellow journal of the absentee editor should
have done this thing is surprising, but it is
pTising that any set OF aspiring to the respect
and esteem OF their neighbors should accept such a
political ally and by silence give the
poyment of its base tactics to defame and injure
political opponents
The candidates and supporters of the fusion ticket
have made clean canvass. Their arguments have
been directed to the principles OF municipal govern
ment and not to personalities. They have pointed
out the evils to result from the adoption OF a
charter yesting such vast power in the hands of a
Mayor as would enable him to the whole NUM-
cipal administration political machine advance
the ambitions OF himself and his friends. Against
these arguments the yellow journal combination has
poured forth all forms of abuse, SANDER and down
right lying Intelligent citizens will take note of the
difference in the manner in which the campaign has
been conducted by the fusion ticket and by the yellow
ticket and will vote for the clean who have made
clean fight and can be counted on to frame clean
charter.
One good result will flow from the exposure of the
lie of Saturday 1t will put the OF the city on
guard against the publication of similar lies this
morning. Since Hearst is safe in New York and
free from all fear of being brought before Cali
fornia court his paper in San Francisco has legal
responsibility any than a conscience to restrain
it. 1t circulated anonymous ISLANDERS against The
Call and endeavored to throw suspicion of the
authorship reputable merchants II falsiied a
dispatch from Captain Tuttle of the Bear. 1t ex-
torted subsidy OF $1,000 per month from the South
Pacific Company for silence and after pocketing
$4,000 broke its agreement 1t has entered
upon another campaign of lying 1t will do its worst
this morning. Be not deceived by its blackguard-
isms. SO shameless harridan of journalism should
have no power other than to soil those who asso-
ciate with it consent to purchase its favor.

THE FREEHoLDERS ELECTION.

ID THEIR votes to-day the citizens of San
+ Francisco to determine whether they will
- entrust the work of framing charter to
body OF freeholders representing the conservative
clement OF the city, nominated by joint action OF the
established political parties and therefore thoroughly
non-partisan and pledged only to devise charter in
accordance with principles thoroughly American. or
to a body representing a convention dominated by
theorists faddsts cranks, nominated virtually by
themselves and pledged to frame charter on an
autocratic basis in accordance with the
monarchical systems OF Europe than with our own
The argument of the campaign has made clear to
the public the nature of the choice before them.
Shall we have charter that creates petty despot
under the title OF Mayor and practically subjects the
city to his domination, or charter that provides
form OF municipal government whose duties are so
distributed between the executive and legislative
branches to establish balance of power like
that which prevails in national and State govern
nents and which in its nature has become known
among publicists the American system?
Shall we have a charter framed to meet the wishes
OF the people as whole and in accordance with pre-
cedents to which we are accustomed. or a charter
framed to meet the political caprices of set of self
styled reforners and framed with the intention OF
forcing political system into the form and fashion
OF Birmingham, Berlin, Timbuctoo some other
place outlandish and alien to America?
Shall we have charter framed by men who will
meet body Of freeholders free from entangling
alliances with agitators and yellow journalism, free
from pledges to corrupt bosses to radical theorists,
iee from self seeking and from the service Of self
seekers or a charter framed by men chosen by yellow
journalism entangled with the schemers of all kinds
pledged to the adoption OF untrcd experiments in
municipal government and either seeking personal
advantage themselves or lackeying the OF
those who do?

THE PHELHN AND HEARST IDEH

~ CCORDING to the yellow journal which
| \ Absentee Hearst has placed at the disposal Of
/ Mayor Phelan for this campaign, is
fitted to a Freebooter in San Francisco I'M
less he has inherited, like Phelan and Hearst prop
erty holdings a mammoth scale.
The Examiner derides and denounces those can
didates whose holdings are of moderate extent. It
declares them to be unfit serve as Freehoders 1t
argues that the people should against them be-
cause their holdings are small 1t would have the
task OF framing a charter composed wholly OF
whose real estate is sufficiently large to make
them something like lords of the land as well as land
lords
Such a qualification for Freeholders would com
port we'll with the proposed autocratic Mayor char
ter. 1t would suit the Phelans and the Hearsts to
have a city government from which the citizen OF
moderate means would be excluded altogether Rich
in the possession OF large holdings left them by their
fathers, these two woudbe lordlings count inn
pudence the part of the citizen of average means
to aspire to have voice in framing form of gov
eminent for the municipality in which they live.
The people to-day have vote this idea of the
Phelan and Hearst combine. They will show by
their sufrages what they think of the idea that a
Freebooter must be distinguished by inherited
millions. They have seen Hearst in journalism
They have seen Phelan in politics They know what
to expect OF Freehoders of that type. The citizen oil
moderate is not yet ready to surrender all
right of voice in municipal affairs to the holders
OF property with millions in it, and the attempt oil
the Examiner to discredit OF small holdings will
result in discrediting only the absentee editor and
the aspiring Mayor who prompted it to make the
