Rare days In March. when mystic yapors veil
The eastern sky with cool, delicious mist.
Deep in their shade sweet nature makes her
with youthful spring, and in some dreamful
sighs endless love. Could we but touch the
Soft curtains of the day that e'er resist
Our searchl just there, could we, unnoticed.
What sacred joy our conscience might assault
oh, days of grayl Through thy charmed at

Steals soft kiss of comfort TO my brow
To happiness my waiting soul draws near,
Dreaming those dreams thy draperies allow.
Life may be perfect in it's fowery May;

PHELAN AT NORTH BEACH.
Meeting in the Forty-Fourth Assembly District.

The Democrats of the Forty-fourth As sembly District met in Bersaglieri Hall last night. The chief speakers of the evening were Mayor Phelan, Bert Schles- finger, Franklin K. Lane and Barclay Henley. Unfortunately for MT. Phelan he was late in arriving. and as Barclay Henley had just had the platform the hall was pretty we'll emptied. Dr. Wash ington Dodge had intended making Va speech, but when he arrived and found Henley talking he started out in search of another meeting, remarktng that he did not care to talk to empty chairs.
 MT. Schlesinger was the first speaker. He started with James G. Mcguire and went right through the ticket. While he had good words for all the Democratic candidates, he had nothing to say against those on the Republican ticket, except a time on the monopoly string, but could find no possible way Of connecting the names of the Republican nominees with any of the corporations. Richard r. Doo- Ian was then presented and promised that the streets of North Beach would be his particular care. Franklin k. Lane took the platform and almost wept as he spoke of the terrible .calamities which would fall upon the city if the Republican candidates were elected and, incidentally, promised a revolution in the City Hall should he be chosen as City and County Attorney. He could not see how those untried and terrible Repub- lican standard bearers could ever be elected.
 To a rapidly diminishing audience Bar clay Henley then, began to tell of the unquestioned honesty of every Democrat on the ticket, and said that Phelan's de- feat would be proof that mans capacity for f-government is a failure.
 Mayor Phelan finally arrived and was given hearty. welcome by crowd of small boys equipped with fish horns and police whistles, who had monopolized one corner of the gallery. His speech was the same old story. He held up his re- cord during the past two years as some thing beyond reproach and threatened the downfall of the gas and water com panies if reelected. He also placed him. self on record as being the best friend the poor workngman ever had.
 Short speeches were made by Dr. Le- land, Jeremiah Deasy, Finlay Cook. T. r. Bonnet, Rhodes Borden and Lewis r. By ington.

SUPERVISOR DEVANY
 TO MAYOR PHELAN

deprive you of it, think you need not have the slightest fear as you won fairly and squarely.
 I see you are trying to oil up the Sun set District people after having vetoed the bill for engineers fees for the sewer thus preventing its construction. You re- member you vetoed this bill on the ground that the charge was excessive. This was several months ago. But when a delega- tion from the Sunset Club came to you short time since you promised not to veto the bill, but would let 1t become law without your signature. You kept your word all right, but what puzzles me Is this: If the bill was excessive and ex- orbitant few months ago why should it not be just as excessive and exorbitant now. Surely it cannot be because the elections are close at hand and that there are some votes in the Sunset District.
 I observe that some of the papers take exception to your wearing a plug" hat. I don't see where there can be any ob- jection to this practice, as it is the cus- tom with all club men. There is nothing snobbish in this. It is not as if you parted your name in the middle. For instance you might some of these days be signing yourself J. Dennis Phelan-and even to this I suppose you will find few foolish objectors. Yours, etc,

Addressed the Sailors.

Democrats held a mass meeting at Sailors Union Hall, at East and Mission streets, last night. There was a fair attendance and a number of municipal candidates were on the platform. Mayor Phelan addressed his remarks principal ly to the sailors. and claimed that the success of the party would mean the growth of an immense commercial trade for the port of San Francisco. He again referred to the newspapers as doing him serious wrong, and urged that it was necessary for him to appear before the people to counteract their injurious statements.
 Washington Dodge, candidate for As sessor, told the sailors how he would heap taxation upon the corporations and lessen their burdens He was followed by F. l.. Fitzgerald, Rhodes Borden. James N. Block, John A. Brown, William M Hinton, John P. Dunn, Judge Conlan, Lawrence Hoey, H. B. Andrews, Bernard Bienenfield Frank J. Murasky, L. F. By ington, F. K. Lane, E. P. Mogan ahd T. F Bonnet

and he merely wished to renew the promises that he had made during the preceding campaign.
 w. H. Cobb, who Is out for the As sembly from the Thirty-fifth District. delivered one of the best speeches of the evening. He drew attention to the unusual economic conditions that exist in this country and the success of the Republican administration in coping with them. He argued for a Congress and a Senate that would uphold the President in his future plans and indose his past action, and he pointed out the necessity of electing State legislators who were of the same sympathy and politics.
 Nearly all of the candidates were heard and given the heartiest applause before the meeting was adjourned.

Judge Louderback.

As the election campaign progresses interest in the selection of Superior Judges increases. There are four to be elected. Among the various candidates Judge Louderback is eminently fitted to occupy the Superior Court bench. He was Police Judge some years ago, but voluntarily retired from the position. He made one of the best Police Judges that San Francisco ever had, and his record was pure and honorable. Un- der his administration life and prop erty were protected and crime and vice suppressed. His public. private and professional life and character have been pure and excellent. There are various reasons why Judge Davis Lou derback should be elected. He Is foe to vice and crime and the low and vile are combining against him. He will not be owned nor controlled by corporations nor monopolies, but will decide all matters according to the right of the case. He is the candidate of the beople who want to place the courts beyond the power of corpora tions, politicians and ringsters.
