WHAT ARE TIE ISSUES ?

! UDGE A1AGUIRE says that he will not be di- oI yerted from the issues of the campaign. It will V fill long felt want if he will take the public into his confidence in what he considers the issues be- In general way he informs his audiences that he stands against the aggressons of the corpora tons and the rich. Ii aggressons exist they can be specified Let the Judge outline existing aggres- sion, it truthfully and give the remedy that can be provided in his election If he cannot describe such existing aggression and prove that 1t exists and that can be stopped by elecng him Governor, then his general denunciation of property and those who own 1t is dangerous demagogy, affecting to see classes that have no existence and stirring man up against another.
 Recently he has begun boasting that he ap prenticed to the backsnith's trade and so learned sympathize with labor This Is demagogic In this country vast majority of lay their keel in labor in early life, and labor has had sympathizers besides apprentices One thing IS sure, the Judge did like work we'll enough stick to it, for there Is some evidence that he began drawing down off cia salary at Io and it certai that he did very after he was zI and has been at it since, with very slight internlissions
 In regard to his apprenticeship to a trade, it is worth noting that great has never been known to advertise such thing himself. In all the long public career of John Bright he never told att dience that he cotton-spinner Stephen A. Douglas never found 1t necessary to tell that he a cabinet maker nor John M. Palmer that he was cooper, nor Andrew Johnson that he was a tailor nor Henry Wilson that he shoemaker, nor Lincoln that he was rai1-splitter and fatboat man, nor Henry Clay that he a mill boy, nor Joe McDon- aid that he was harness-rnaker because in the use Of their genius and talents they impressed themselves upon their age without reference to their early calling and when their brains had raised them eminence it was left for others search out the experiences of their early life and tell 1t to the world When man saves the historian and bographer the trouble by attempting to inhate his personality by weeping dence that he has not the brains and talents to sus tain himself without demagogy.
 So far Maguires campaign has been entirely de- nunciatory and destructive He denounces that he would destroy. He amucb against property and its owners But California does not destruc- tive policy This State requires constructive policy What will Mcguire do, if elected, relieve the sor rews of the poor which he first heard of while blow ing bellows as a blacksmith's apprentice? Let him be specific and tell what he IS going to do
 So far he has denounced the funding bill which his friend Senator White helped to draw up and perfect and which every of admits closes the fund ing issue favorably to the Government. The people of California their public affairs controlled by reason and not prejudice. Will Judge Mcguire cease Of hope the memory that he was once an apprentice and the hope that he will be Governor and talk a little plain and common sense2

"The Air Ship" new and original
spectacular musical farce comedy,
written by J. M. Gates, possesses some
novel and realistic scenic features, and
it will probably draw big audience at

One of the most realistic stage scenes
ever presented will be the flight of a real
air ship with fifteen passengers on a
Klondyke expedition, and view of
Dawson City in winter. While the au-
thor does not claim plot, "The Air Ship"
has central idea or theme, with which
it is infested by amusing dialogue, new
songs, dances and specialties. Careful
attention will be given to staging "The

engaged will give lively presentation
