 tactics. The leaders of the fused factions are interruptions, and they defeat before them. They have begun already the desperate tactics of slander and lying in the hope of weakening the forces of politics and good government.
 It is likely that of lies will be circulated to- day. for it is part of the cunning of the interruptions to issue the malignant of their falsehoods on election day when is late for honesty and truth to refute them.
 Be not deceived The Republican party in this campaign stands not only for the best measures but for the best men, It has put forward candidates of the highest worth for all offices and rightly expects them to receive the votes of all citizens who believe in straight politics, good government and the admin israton of public affairs on business principles by business
 Among the lies issued by the demagogues none have been than those asserted through the Examiner against the Republican candidates for judicial offices. A rogue never speaks well either of the law or of the men who i'm partially administer it. It is not strange therefore that the attacks the Judges should be vicious and persistent The Republicans have not nominated can dates for udgeships who would be pleasing to anar- chists, land confscators or boodlers
 Be not deceived Show your scorn of campaign lying by voting for who have made clean can vass Vote the Republican ticket straight and in the next campaign perhaps Democracy will profit by the lesson and nominate ticket which it can defend and support without slandering honesty and integrity

ACCUSED OF ToADY1sM.
Muller's Allegations Against Officers Who First Sailed With the
 

According to the story of Andre Muller. erstwhile steward of the transport New port, the first trip that that boat made to Manila with General Merritt and his staff was not the pleasantest one in the world for the crew and the soldiers who were on board.
 Muller alleges that the officers were hail fellows well met with the men of the Astor Battery and showed them much in the way Of favoritism, to the exclusion or the rights of the men who were not travelling on the strength of a pull
 The first incident occurred on the sail ing day. The steamer was equipped with an Ice machine that had an average ca pacity of 240 pounds daily. Steward Null Ter in dealing out the ice placed about twenty pounds in Lieutenant Colonel Wheeler's iee-chest. When Wheeler dis covered his allowance he was furious and ordered him to fill the ice-chest to it's utmost capacity. Muller explained that the chest would hold 600 pounds, that it was only possible to obtain 240 pounds in a day, and the matter was finally com promised at fifty pounds.
 seven days after the steamer left Hon. olulu the water supply gave out and dis ullation became necessary. The privateS on board were obliged to drink lukewarm water, but the officers received their usual quota of ice.
 In regard to the interchange of favors between Captain Saunders and certain staff officers Muller says that the former had been scheming with the evident ex- pectation of receiving a testimonial from them, which was duly accorded to him and in return the delighted captain pre- sented some of the officers with certain

A Christmas Dinner.

The employees of the office of the Sur veyor of the Port have prepared the ma terials for grand Christmas dinner for ex-employes of the office who enlisted in the army and went to Manila. Mrs. Jo- seph s. Spear, wife of the Surveyor, was delegated to make the purchases. and she has laid in a store of delicacies that will be good for at least a months indigestion. There will be a bottle of champagne and two bottles of beer to each man, with a can of chicken and fancy cheese, pate de foie gras, French mushrooms, salad dress ing, canned tongue, lobster and shrimps and plum pudding. The names of the can didates for the Indigestion ward in the Manila hospital are: Captain T. McCreagh of Company C. First California Regiment; 1; Privates c. E. Kesseler, S. L Marston Lloyd Spencer Corporal H. F. Ruthraff and Commissary Sergeant Arthur H. Clifford.
 The dinner will be sent on the Newport, which will leave for Manila to-day.

glassware and other things for their use in camp all of which was the property of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company. Steward Muller says that he would not have cared. but he received a bill Of s4l; he being responsible for all shortage and breakage. which he refused to pay. The staff officers, to further show their appre,, citation of Captain Saunders, presented him with several rifles while at Manila, which Muller strongly suspects were Government property.
 Altogether the trip was far from being a pleasant one and one reason for this was the fact that there was a crew or untrained men in the saloon, but steward Muller was instructed by General Man. ager Schwerin to make the best of 1t and not to be too severe in the interpretation of rules. The consequence was that dis. satisfaction was rife. A private in one or the companies made. complaint to General Merritt who immediately took hand in the matter and ordered his secretary, Howell to see that the privates on board were made comfortable and given atten- tion His orders were carried out to the letter,

VITICULTURAL INTERESTS. A Fine Outlook for California Wines in South American Markets

The California Winemakers' Corpora tion, at a recent meeting, forwarded to the Manufacturers and Producers As sociation of California and the Philadel- phia Commercial Museum resolutions thanking those bodies for the interest they are taking in the wine industry of this coast. The resolution recites that California winernakerS can successfully compete in price, quality and quantity with the countries of South America, and that there is no reason why the produc- CTS here cannot find a splendid market on the southern continent for the wines made here. The resolution says:
 We now believe that the darkest days of the wine industry of California have passed and that a bright future Is before us; that not only will the winemakers of this State be shortly enabled to dispose of their wines at remuneratiye prices, but that the viti cultural industry of this State must and will in time become one of the largest and best paying industries of California.

NEWPORT SAILS TO-DAY.
She Carries General Marcus P. Miller
 and the Last of the Troons.

The Newport, the last of the transports. will sail for Manila to-day. The vessel will get away about o'clock this after noon. She will carry the Third Battalion of the Twentieth Kansas Regiment, the Wyoming Light Artillery and General Marcus P. Miller and his staff, consisting of First Lieutenants Woodward and Bar roll of the Third Artillery and the head quarters staff.
 General Miller Is the last of the general officers to go. The excellent shape in which these troops have been prepared for departure is entirely due to his personal efforts in caring for them and in prepar- ing them for the trip. When the Newport goes out she will be given a salute of eleven guns from Alcatraz and Fort Point in honor of General Miller. A number of the wives of officers will also sail on the Newport.

VOTE EARLY AND VOTE RIGHT.

n IL registered voters should exercise the right / \ of suffrage to-day The occasion is too inn portant to be treated off year election and passed with indifference. The decision of the State in whichever way 1t goes should be given by clear majority of all voters The choice of not one single candidate should be determined by the fact that number of his opponents stayed at home through apathy or indifference.
 The issues of the campaign not those which ordinarily divide political parties. Tn the Bryante movement in the nation and the Mcguire movement in the State there is distant menace to society The foundations of finance of property of industry and law itself threatened by the avowed advocates of debased currency and land confscation and the apClogists of anarchy and riot.
 Ii will be easy to save the commonwealth from Maguireism if all conservative citizens do their duty to-day, but it will be difficult if through neglect to they permit the election of Mcguire to the Gov ernorship any considerable number of his followers to the Legislature. The situation is well illustrated by the old verse:
 T hear lion in the lobby roar
 Say, MT. Speaker, shall shut the door
 And keep him out; shall we let him in
 Then do our best to put him out again?"
 It will be the part of wisdom to keep Mcguire out of the State government and to put Phean out of the city government. To effect these desirable ends energy and activity will be required the part of the conservative forces. The discontented the single taxers, the lawessall the Maguireites and the Phe lanes will be to go to the polls There will be no apathy nor indifference in their ranks.
 To the conservatives of the State public business is to-day of more importance than any private business Every consideration of patriotism and of enlightened selfinterest combines mpe good citizens to unite in defending the administration from the assaults of the fused factions of the opposition and the State from the attempt of the sngletaxers gain control of its government.
 The vote of the conservatives moreover, should be solid for the straight Republican ticket Not one single candidate who stands for Republicansm in the nation the State or the city should be overlooked by the voters. The victory over Phelansm in the city, Maguireism in the State and over Bryanisn in the nation should be complete and overwhelming
 The duty of the day is simple but it is imperative It cannot be postponed. Vote early vote right, and then see that your friends and neghbors go to the polls.

day will encourage all the enemies of the nation and strengthen all the hopes of Sagasta and Weyler. So great would be the stimulus given to Spanish expec tatons by defeat of the administration that 1t would probably be necessary to the war ill order to force them to accept peace the terms now pro- posed
 Nor would it be in foreign relations only that the nation would suffer from defeat of the admnisra- ton at this uncture All the foes of the protective tariff all the enemies of sound money, all the advo of riot disorder, disturbance would be reused to make fercer and bitterer fight against the sting order of things Every interest of property would be threatened, every industry harassed every institution menaced.
 Mckinley has deserved well of the country. His home policy has restored domestic prosperity his for eign policy has maintained the dignity and increased the prestige of the nation. While the leaders of dis content have been talking and clamoring and crtciz- ing and condemning he has been patiently and bravey working in silence for the people and for the flag He has accomplished great things all the world knows and will accomplish more if rightly sus- tained
