Mcguire VS.. Gage

To the Editor of the Los Angeles Herald:
I have carefully read the speech Of Hon.
James G. Mcguire, the peoples candidate
for governor. and also that of Hon. Henry
T. Gage, the Southern Pacifics candidate
for the same high office, as they appeared
in The Herald. II would be. good thing
for the people Of this state II the speeches
of these candidates could be published in
parallel columns and placed in The hands
Of every voter Of the state. The speech
OF Mcguire, while not intended as key
note" Of the campaign is full Of sound logic
and facts, which are Of interest TO the
people, and Is statesmanlke. patriotic and
honest, while that Of his opponent is the
the utterances Of cheap demagogue, who,
to evade the Issues of the campaign. deals
In personalities and insufferable egotistical
personal laudations, and verifies Mr.. Ma
xuire's assertion that "Mr. Gage has no
opinions of his own"

Waters Bad Break

The fusion party is national slop-

To .he Editor of The Los Angeles Herald:
Tho above language, with all that 1t i'm
plies, was uttered by R. j. Waters, the Re-
publican nominee for congress.
This monstrous insult 10 the 6,502 925 men
who voted for Hon. w. ]. Bryan in 1886.
was not provoked by the heat or excite
ment Of political argument, but calmly and
deliberately offered from the roetrum, and
therefore clearly reflects the innate char
acter Of Its author.
Ought Mr.. Waters to be elevated to the
dignity Of a United States congressman
as a reward for his calumny?
"The Fusion party is national slop-
bucket" not being circumscribed by Sec
fore, that the 157 members Of our nation

ators who perchance differ with Mr.. Wa
ters politically, must form part of this
odoriferous concretion Of his Imagination.

tion 10 congress 1t is not safe to assume
that he, naturally. would enter that body
persona non grata to that portion Of his
fellow members drawn from his "politi-
cal cesspoo."
Could he, then, reasonably hope to have
any influence with The members whom he
has publicly insulted, sibply because they
happen to differ with hdm on questions Of
political economy?
1t would not be within the bounds Of
human reason to suppose that the man who

Not the Candidate of Any Party for Mayor of
 San Jose.
Activity of the New Charter Club Brings Dismay to
 the Ring.
Special Meeting of the Grand Jury to Take Up the Scully-krleg
 Bribery Charges.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, Feb. 16.-Ever since It was first announced that the taxpayers of San Jose intended to put an anti gang ticket in the field for the coming election gossip has been busy with the name of Frank Stock as the probable candidate for Mayor of the ring. NC word was ever uttered against the 1n- tegrity of MT. Stock, for he stands with the best business men in the com munity, but it was known that he was favored with considerable patronage from the county and it was feared that he might let his gratitude to the gang which controls the county administra- tion as thoroughly as it does that of this city, influence him sufficiently to permit his name to head the ticket put up in opposition to that of the New Charter Club, and he was looked upon as formidable adversary by the op- ponents of the ring.
 It can now be said on the authority of MT. Stock himself that he IS out of the fight, and is out of 1t for good. In the course of an interview to-day he stated his position as follows: Il am not a candidate for Mayor on any ticket and will not be a candidate un- der any circumstances. It is true that I have been spoken of as probable candidate for Mayor. and at one tune was inclined to listen to the pleadlngs of my friends. Proper and thorough consideration, however, has convinced me that I cannot afford to go into a public office that would in all nkellhood absorb most of my time. My business affairs are such that all my time must be given to them. l have my two brothers as partners, and their inter- ests as well as mine must be consulted in a matter of this kind"
 On being asked what he thought or the four gentlemen who have been mentioned as candidates for the May oralty by the New Charter Club and its friends he answered that any one of them would make a first class Mayor. He added that he believed there ought to be a change in the municipal admin istration which would bring about cheaper and better government and that he believed the present movement with this object in view would prove a success.
 It was learned to-day that there is to be a special meeting of the Grand Jury on Friday to take up the matter of the Scully- -Krieg bribery charges. It was first thought best to wait until the Council concluded it's investigation, but from the reputation that all the mem bers of the Council have succeeded in establishing for themselves not much, it was felt, could be expected from them in the way of throwing light 'on the scandal. Their work will most likely partake of the whitewashing or der. It will not surprise many if all the members of the Council are event ually made the subjects of investiga- tion by the Grand Jury.
