Republican Campaign
 Plan Complete.
SPEAKERS IN THE FIELD
WILL NOT PLAY ON PASSIONS
 OR PREJUDICES.
Charles L. Patton and D. A. McKin- lay Will Speak at a Mass Meeting To-Night at Me-
 tropolitan Hall.

The executive committee of the Repub- lican State Central Committee and the campaign committee of the County com mittee have now completed their plans for enlightening the voters on the real issues of the campaign. Both the local and State committees are working In mar monious accord, and no voter will be able to offer the excuse, if he votes wrong on November 8, that he did not thoroughly understand the issues involved. The Re- publican party is making straight-out and open fight Every orator and every candidate on the stump will tell the peo- pie just what the real issues of the fast approaching battle of ballots portend There will be no playing on the passions or prejudices of the voter. No false is- sues will be raised. The real and great issues ce the campaign will be distinctly and clearly set forth, so that all who are anxious to be enlightened will receive the information they seek.
 The speakers will indulge in logic in- stead of misleading and blindtng flights or rhetoric. Every county in the State will be visited by men of note who are thoroughly acquainted with the political situation of the day. Here in the city the local candidates will expose the methods of the "job chasers" who are being led on to defeat by the master Of demagogues, James D. Phelan.
 First Assistant Secretary of the Inte- rior Webster Davis, who Is on visit to this State, will take the stump next week and discuss the national issues involved in the present State campaign. He is an able speaker and bears the record of having never used his power of oratory unless in the cause of right and justice. He will speak at Sacramento on the 22d inst; Oakland, 24th; San Jose, 18th; Mo- desto, 18th; Fresno, Eth; Bakersfield, 2Sth, and at Woodward's Pavilion in this city on the 31st.
 A mass meeting will be held In Metro politan Hall tonight, when Charles L.. Patton, the Republican nominee for Mayor, D. A. McKinlay and other promi- nent speakers will discuss the issues of the campaign. The meeting will be pre- sided over by W. J. Brady of the Eureka Boiler Works, who has heretofore been a Democrat.
 E. F. Preston. who accompanied Henry T. Gage during his triumphai tour through the San Joaquin Valley, will speak on Friday night at Odd Fellows al
