SENATOR WHITE
 AT JACKSONVILLE

JACKSONVILLE. Oct. 25. = Senator air speech to about five hundred people tonight. Notwithstanding it was one of his best efforts he had an unusually cold audience, winning his first ap- plause about midway of his address, when he eloquently referred to the Stars and Stripes.
 Much of the speakers time was de- voted to an explanation of the acts of himself and his Democratic colleagues in Congress with reference to the war measures. He assured his hearers that the Republican majority deserved con- demnation when it refused to follow the dictates of the Democratic minor ity.
 If it had done right everything would have been we'll. His auditors were in- formed that they were not voting for party, that the so-called national issue did not cut any figure and that this was State affair. He talked much about the war, denounced the idea that the Republican party was entitled to any special credit for its conduct and earnestly endeaVored to convince the drinkers of beer and users of tobacco that they were defraying the expense of the recent conflict and being ground to the earth by taxation. He also ex- pressed the fear that the Peace Com mission in Paris would do something by which some one would be enabled to make money.
 The Republican party was denounced because there is no representative mer- chant marine, and R. J. Waters, Re- publican candidate for Congress, was referred to as a man who is making speeches unfit to discuss or post on the fences. He had little to say for Barlow, except that he was experienced and ought not to be removed. The Populist element was 'jollied" handsomely, and Shanahan and his followers were per mitted to escape with a mild rebuke.
 MT. White then took up Maguire's candidacy and asked: DO you knoy Maguire?''
 Despite the fact that Maguire was born and raised here the query brought forth no applause. In some- what labored effort the speaker en- deavored to satisfactorily explain Ma guireS single tax doctrine, and told his hearers of the difficulties the Dem ocratic candidate would meet in en- deavoring to put his theory into prac- tice. Maguire'S honesty of purpose was dwelt upon, and voters were urged to support that gentleman particularly be- cause of his experience in office and of the fact that ne nad d Juulcidl Hllnu.
 Those who expected MT. White to de- cry Henry T. Gage were grievously dis appointed He referred to him as a warm friend for twenty years, and the only reason the speaker gave why the people should not support the Repub- lican standard bearer was that he had mot had experience" It was manly speech and deserved better reception than was accorded 1t by the Demo- crats present. considering the fact that this is MT Whites birthplace.

MEETING AT GRAHAM's HALL,

One of the best meeings of the campaign was held at Graham's Hall, on Alabama street and Precita avenue, last night. John T. Graham, the leader of the Re- publican forces of the district, spared no cost or pains in gathering every voter in the section to his hall to hear words of wisdom from the leaders of the Republi- can party. The meeting was called to or der by MT. Graham, who in g. few appro- pirate words welcomed the speakers and the voters to the meeting. He introduced n. 5; M1lizner, who said he appeared for the County Committee in the interest of the RepubIican, party of the city and county of San Francisco. He spoke of the principles of the party and the excellence of the nominees put forth by that party all 9f whom would be elected beyond a
 H. N. Clement, one of the nominees for Superior Judge, was the next speaker. He refrained from discussing the issues of that when elected all should have the lays admitted l. fairly lair and equally.
 nom1ee for effef c and AoTageg o being introduced received an ovation sell dom accorded to any candidate running for local office. He gave short outline or the platform upon which the candi dates stood before the people, dwelling upon that portion which assured the peo- pie the right to acquire all public utilities.
 Judge D. J. Murphy, nominee for Dis trict Attorney, was. given a hearty recep- ton, The Judge. being we'll known in that pOTliOu Ol the hlSSlOn, ne was quite at home with the boys.
 H. s. Martin made few remarks and apologized for having to depart so soon from such a warm meeting for the pur- pose of attending other meetings. He re- ceived a parting cheer as he left the hall.
 What was accorded to the other can6i- dates in the way of a warm reception was but childs play to what Charles L. Pat ton received when he made his appear ance at 10 o'clock. He delivered vote catching address and fairly captured the entire crowd There were several men in the body of the meeting who knew Patton since he was Mission boy attending the Mission Grammar School, and these men were loudest in their applause, because the big, genial man was a genial boy of happy disposition who worked himself up to what he is without the aid of a fathers wealth.
 The following Republican candidates were present, and each made a few ap- propriate remarks:
 John Lackmann, F. L. Head, Dr. Flaw kins A. Attridge, Thomas F. Graham, W. A. Deane, Asa R. Wells. Edward I. Shee- han. I. J. Truman, Charles s. Tilden, R. H. Webster, John A. Drinkhouse and A. B. TreadWeu
