ORGANIZED A STRONG DAVIS
CLUB In THE FORTY-FIRST

One of the strongest Republican clubs
of the campaign has been organized in
the Forty-f1rst Assembly District under
the name Of the Young Mems Horace Da-
Wis Club.
The club has among its members a
large number Of young business. men Of
the city who for the first time have taken
active interest in politics. Every block
in the large district has its representa-
tive. who has pledged himself TO make
z. canvass from house to house and make
an energetic endeavor to interview every
voter in the district in the interest of Hor-
ace Davis for Mayor and the Republican
ticket in general.
Early in the campaign a Horace Davis
Club was organized in the district Of
which the Mayoralty candidate is d resi-
dent and Mr.. Davis became an active
member.
Some of the younger members took UNI
bragg at the oft-repeated remark of Mr.
young voters Of the city were almost a
unit in organizing clubs in the interest
Of Democracy under his leadership and
to show that Mayor Phelan's idea was
not well founded proposed the organiza-
tion of a young mems club in the interest
of Horace Davis and to make 1t a feature
of the campaign. A meeting was called
at which a strong roll was signed and
officers elected as follows: n. H Frank

PHELAN'S BOASTED ECONOMY
DISPROVED BY PLAIN FIGURES

An enthusiastic meeting of the Twen-
ty-eighth District Horace Davis indie
pendent Republican Club was held last
night at 63S Folsom street. Although pre-
liminary organization of the club was
effected only last Wednesday night it al
ready has a membership of eighty-seven
voters, with the following officers: Pres
ident, J. w. Allan vice president, T.
King; secretary, R. E. Cole; treasurer,
Charles G.. Jaegar.
The first speaker last night was Major
". w. Allen. who proceeded in a convinc-
ing manner to show that the economy at
tributed to Mayor Phelan was not war
ranted by the facts and he quoted the fol-
lowing figures to prove the truth Of his
assertions:
The expenses of the municipality in
1892. said Major Allen, when Sanderson
was Mayor, were IS, ,394, ,155. In 1898 and
1894 when Ellert was Mayor, they were
S., 477, ,324 As and s4931. .06S 80 respectively In
1895 and 1896, when Sutro held the office.
the expenses were s., 56S S27 and s., 1866, 5S5 Is
respectively, and in 1897. with Pheian.
they were increased to IS, ,40S, SIS 2S, and
last year they amounted to S6.2160S 55.
The expenses of the health Office jumped
from s23,051 in 1892 to s70,355 35 in 1898.
These increased sums represent practi-
morants that surround Phelan have alb
sorbed.
The other speakers were R. B. McClel-
Ian. Edward Close, A. P. Black, Judge
Joachimsen. J. H Scott and others, and
the meeting concluded with three rousing
cheers for Horace Davis and the rest Of
the Republican ticket.

ENTHUSIAST FOR DAVIS IN
The THlRTY-NINTH DISTRICT

Prolonged cheers and repeated applause
greeted every mention of Horace Davis
name at the Republican rally held in
Saratoga Hall last night. The meeting
was enthusiastic from start to finish, and
the large hall was packed with voters
The rally-and it was a rally-was held
under the auspices of the Thirty ninth
District Republican Club, the Continental
League and the Horace Davis Club of the
Thirty y-ninth District.
Frank D. Worth, president of the Con-
words of welcome and a statement of the
purposes OF the meeting, he introduced
L. q. Carpenter, candidate for Police
Judge. Before mentioning his own fight
Mr. Carpenter spoke of the merits Of the
Republican candidate for Mayor. When
he concluded he received most hearty ap-
plause- Following Carpenter came Major
Charles BoXton, Charles Bliss, Judge
JOachimsen, Asa R. Wells and Charles
Jackson, whose remark were warmly ap-
plauded by the audience
When this relay of candidates had come
and gone the knickerbocker Quartet and
the band prepared the audience for the
next batch of speakers Colonel T. V.
Eddy, Major Kyle. Z. Myron Wolf and l..
a. Gibbons spoke of the campaign issues
word was lost by the absorbed audience
and frequently the speakers had to wait
for the applause to subside
One Of the last speakers of the evening
Of the intensely enthusiastic kind. By
many of the candidates the principles of
the charter We're eXpOunded and the posi-
tion of the Republican party in relation
TO 1t was treated at length. Altogether
the meeting was a splendid success and
hall confident of victory for the Repub-
ncan ticket at the polls on November Z.

PHELAM HURLS A BOLD Def
AT THOSE WHO OPPOSE HIM

Mayor Phelan boldly defied the people of
this city last night in a speech before the
Monticello Club. In words that left no
room for doubt as to their meaning he in
timated that If reelected he would use
friends. No others need apply. The meet
Ing, which was held in Metropolitan Hall.
was not given for the purpose of further
date. The members of the Monticello
Club take an academic interest in politics
and had invited Mayor Phelan and Frank
lin K. Lane to address them in a general
way on municipal matters. Mr.. Lane kept
within the bounds and delivered a very
interesting and instructive address. NO
one was given q hint, from anything he
said, that he was a candidate for office.
or that San Francisco was going to nave
a municipal election within a few days.
With the Mayor 1t was different. He got
started off all right, but toward the wind
up he could not resist the temptation to
talk about himself about his charter
San Francisco. Referring TO his power OF
appointment he said virtually that no Re
publican who was not Phelan Repuoli-
can during his campaign would stand a
ghost Of a show of receiving any OF his
political favors.
''The charter provides said the Mayor,
that as many Republicans as Democrats
must be appointed on the public commits
sions; but l want to say right here that
II any Republican expects to be repre-
sented on those commissions he must
come from the ranks of those who meet
us on an equality. No traitor to the char
ter-no Republican who has dared to at
tempt to force national affairs into our
local campaign will be given considera-
ton"

DIR. vooRsANGER ANSWERED.
Majority of His coreligionists Will
Support Horace Davis.

Editor Call: There has lately appeared
in an evening paper an article by Rev.
DR.. Voorsanger favoring the cause Of Mr..
Phelan. The reverend doctor would per-
haps resent the charge of having dtspar-
aged Mr.. Davis. But he has, to say the
least, damned him with faint praise"
The reverend doctors good taste in thus
descending from the pulpit into the arena
of practical politics is not here the ques-
ton. Upon that point perhaps Americans
are universally agreed But the doctor,
whatever the merit of his article. the
truth Of his observations or the proprlety
of his action, occupies a position that
gives to his utterances an added weight
derived entirely from the persons whose
spokesman citizens at large have right
ized to voice the political opinions of his
coreligionists it is our present purpose to
deny. He is at liberty 10 express what
opinions of his own he sees fit, and moth
ing but a sense of propriety and the die
tates of good taste can exert an influence
to prevent him. But in his article he
voicing his individual opinion only, and
he should not have used the columns of a
sectarian religious journal to pronounce
a panegyric upon political canoldate.
Rev. DR.. VoorSanger's views are dia-
metrically opposed to those of a large
number If not the majority Of persons
whose opinions he is erroneously pre-,
fairness should have prompted him to
make that plain. Those whom the doctor
presumes to represent are overwhelm-
ingly Republican, and we venture TO say
find in Mr.. Davis candidate worthy Of
their support. Whatever of praise for
civic virtues applies to Mr.. Phelan applies
with equal if not greater force to Mr..
Davis, and such being the case it is
scarcely to be supposed that those per-
sons whose natural inclinations as well
as material interests favor Republican
doctrines will swerve from their allie
glance IRWIN J. WIEL.

however, was enthusiastic, and every
name on the ticket was cheered as It's
owner came to the front to have his say.
Mayor Phelan was given an ovation, ,.and
his speech which had been heard pre-
viously in other sections OF the city, was
well received. Mr. Phelan gave nearly the
whole of his time to denying that national
issues had anything whatever to do with
the present campaign. Our Republican
friends insult your intelligence when they
say So" declared his Honor "They try
to tell you that Mr.. Hanna and Mr. Nc
Kinley back there in Washington will be
deeply distressed if you do not elect DR..
Beverly Cole for Coroner, and that If you
do not you will be denouncnig the course
Of the administration and the late war.
Do not let them so far mislead you with
these fallacies that you will forget all
about gas and water and new school
houses and all these things which are of
Importance to you"
The Mayor closed with the statement
that the things San Francisco needed she
could not get without going into debt. and
that that was exactly what he proposed
should be done The city was rich and
could afford It.

EMPLOYEES CAN VOTE.

At the regular meeting OF the officers
Of the Merchants Association yesterday
the board decided TO send a communica-
ton TO each member Of the association
calling attention to the law that allows

to ask all employers to allow their en-
ployes sufficient time before the opening
Of business TO exercise the elective fran
chise. In cases where it would be incon-
venient 10 have all employees vote before
the opening of business in the morning.
employers would be asked to allow such
employees to vote in the afternoon before
