The herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1893-1900, 1898-08-27

WISH TO you THIS Time mere ndli yOu. II
is therefore not my intention to discuss the
issues Of the campaign. In about three
weeks, however, shall be guest in your
city second time, and on that occasion
shall give our friends, the enemy. some OF
the best shots our lockers can afford. 1t is
truly encouraging to note this uprising of
the reform forces in their opposition to
trusts and monopoly. The other parties
who are with us have laid down excellent
principles in the platforms they have
adopted, and the Silver Republicans, who
meet tomorrow, will undoubtedly do the
same.
1.-THE organs Of the Southern Pacific say
we are Anarchists and Socialists. This is
amusing. A Socialist Is one who believes in
centering the power Of government in one
man; an Anarchist Is one who believes In
no government at all, excepting such as
can be exercised through the power of
morality and brotherhood; therefore one
cannot be an Anarchist and Socialist at
the same time. But now that these men
assail me with these epithets know that
am right. 1 never know I have. struck
right until hear them yell.
1--WE are paving the way to the overthrow
Of the cause of special privilege, and with
equal rights to all and special privileges
to none as our battle cry we are sure to
win."
The reception at the new headquarters Of
the Silver Republican club continued from
until IL o'clock, and the club room during
the entire time presented the appearance
of a lively convention. With the receiv-
ing of the hundreds of voters who called
to accept his warm handshake and pleas
ant smile, the demands of newspaper men
and the occasional confidential commune
cations from his closer political friends,
Judge Mcguire was very busy man.
Every now and then an old-time friend
would seek his special attention for a
moment and would always get it, though
other duties pressed. One old fellow was
recognized in an instant as. a former cam
paign friend and proceedings were stayed
long enough for Mr.. Mcguire to remark
that they had once made speeches together
In the northern part Of the state and his
friend was there often spoken Of as Abra-
ham Lncoln's counterpart, and the re-
semblance was still to be seen. Another
old campaigner, who looked as though he
had not been treated very we'll in the bat
tie of life, was greeted with a familiar.
Hello, Joe," accompanied by a hearty
slap on the back. He went away feeling
that "Jim Mcguire was the incest fellow
in the state, by gosh'
And so time passed. 1t was a love feast
and all was harmony. But NO one knew to
his full satisfaction what "cometh on the
morrow"
Some of the prominent politicians seen
in and about the headquarters were: Ma
than Cole, ex-Mayor Hazard, Judge MUIR
