Chronicles --latest Lie

RIVERSIDE, Sept 27.-(Speciai to The
Herald.) This has been one Of the busiest
and at tho same time one of the most
| In the state. II a tremendous outpourng
Of the people and unbounded enthusiasm
| indicate anything, Riverside county will
give Mcguire and Hutchison good round
Mcguire and party took the wrong train
to Riverside from Los Angeles, and thus
missed connection direct to Perris, where
the candidates we're booked to appear be-
which was in session there today. The
matter was remed.ed by driving the Ma
guire party, using relays Of horses, from
Riverside to Perris, twenty odd miles. and
getting them there on time.
The wild enthusiasm with which the
thousands of people assembled at Perris
greeted Mcguire almost caused an acci-
dent. The carriage was welcomed by the
firing of anvils, music Of bands and shouts
from hundreds Of throats. The crowd
surged about the carriage and the spirited
team became unmanageable and attempted
to run. A score OF men grasped the bits
and Mcguire was speedily and safely
landed on the ground. He was fairly car
red by the crowd down the street to the
hail.
Here Hutchison lost 10 time in opening
the meeting The heat was terrific and the
thousand men that packed the hall, built
tc hold two-thirds that number. did not add
to the comfort Of speakers or spectators.
Another crowd unable to get into the hall,
filled the streets, waiting until the con-
vent.on meeting should be over, when Ma
gu!re, 1t was announced, would address
an overflow meeting in a pavilion erected
on the town plaza. Hutchison spoke for
about twenty minutes and then Judge Ma
guire was introduced.
The four speeches he made on Monday,
the long ride. the dust and heat, had all
combined to affect his voice, and with to-
nights meeting ahead Of him. he began
to save 1t. He spoke, however, for about
an hour, addressing himself particularly
to those issues which directly concerned
the people Of this section, and a his scor-
ing of the railroad and the Chronicle the
crowd yelled itself hoarse.
At the close Of hts speech Mr.. Mcguire
made hts way through the throng, shak.n g
hands right and left, to the pavilion men,
toned AS he mounted the stand a band
Of Indians from the United States Indian
home, which is located near Perr!s. gave
Mcguire a serenade He then addressed
the people, but finding that his voice was
failing rapidly IN the open air, gave way to
Hutch!son and went back to shaking hands.
The drive back to Riverside was made in
quick time, without incident, and after a
hasty dinner Mr. Mcguire went to the
Riverside opera house and addressed one
OF the largest audiences ever assembled in
this city.
AS in the day, so tonight Magu.re's S
speech was magnifcently received. Hutch
son was also well received. Judge Mcguire
varied his speech according to his wont,
ana pdlu HIS " a hcW idisc-
hood circulated by the Chronicle 70 the
effect that he had succeeded in passing hut
one bill through congress, and that bill
was to pay a contractor. He called atten-
ton to the famous gu!re act, known all
over the world for the protection 1t affords
TO American seamen. This bin he passed,
as he did the bill to give the revenue SER
vice on this coast proper facilities. These
and other bills which he introduced and
which are now laws were cited and then
the falsehoods Of the Chronicle regarding
his party record were tken up and ans
wered.
The speech was mainly devoted to prov
ing that this campaign is one Of manhood
against money, or in other owrds, the peo-
ple against the railroad.
Mr.. Mcguire returns to Los Angeles to-
morrow morning.
The Riverside county union party nom
mated a full ticket today and is sanguine
Of success.
The presence Of Mcguire has started the
county campaign with boom.
