our Republican representatives that
they meet ins%caucus and determine
upon some man. We want a Senator,
and want him at once
J. s. WHherell. jeweler, San Leandro
Disgrace is no name for it. Our Re-
publicans should come to the center and
decide upon some man for Senator: Let
them hold a caucus.
Charles Peterson. merchant, San Lee
andro-Let us have Senator. Hold q
caucus and elect one. Stop this scam
dal and get down to business at once.
|. John Aylward, engine builder, Liver
more-The representatives of the Re-
publican party in the Assembly and
Senate at Sacramento ought to get to-
gether and settle on man who would
be acceptable to the Republican party,
and, Of course, at the same time, to the
people of the State That is the inten-
ton of the Republican party, as un-
derstand 1t. To leave Mr.. Whites chair
vacant under the present circum-
stances, when we have it in our power
to fill it, would be political and So
cial crime. The Republicans Of the
State do not deserve such treatment at
:
elected to represent them in the Legis-
lature. Those men ought to get tc-
gether and elect a Republican imme-
diately.
Paul N Handy, drugs, West Oakland
IA Republican Senator should be elect
led 1t is a shame that something has
not been done. 1 would certainly favor
a caucus if a Senator cannot be elected
by any other means.
Jack Conroy, brass finisher, West
Oakland-The deadlock must be bro-
ken at once. A caucus should be held
and the choice of that caucus elected
without other delay. This deadlock is
not what the people desire at all.
James Shea, miller, West Oakland
i What we want is good Republican
elected to the Senate. I am in favor
of a caucus if that will bring about The
desired result.
Henry Petermann, general merchan-
disc, Mt Eden-I have said all along
that the Republicans ought to do some
thing, and now I can only reiterate my
previous ideas. Caucus, name SEN
i ator and settle this matter. These are
lmy sentiments.
w. H Martin, stationer. Haywards-
A Republican Legislature, such as has;
been elected, should have no trouble in
deciding upon a Senator when so many
good men are in the field. Our repre-
lsentatives should agree upon somebody
and put an end to this deadlock, Tor
if they do not, at the end of the ses-
lsion, as 1 understand this matter, we
may have no Senator if the present
lconditions prevail.
| D. Chisholm, proprietor Haywards
Agricultural Works, Raywards = we
elected our Republicans to represent
the party, their districts and the State.
/ will never vote again for the Assem-
lblyman or Senator from this district,
flor any Office, if they come home with
iout giving us a United States Senator.
The scandal at Sacramento is disgrace
full, and should be settled at once by a
harmonious agreement among the he
lpublicans upon some man for Senator
They should hold a caucus and use
levery means to prevent our party from
being further disgraced.
William A. Mackay, 729 Myrtle street
The legislators should break up the
deadlock. hold caucus and elect Sen
ator without further delay.
M. Tobriner, clerk-I would like to
lsee them get through with the election
of a United States Senator, and am
heartily in favor of any move that will
bring about the desired result
F. B. Yoakum, merchant would
like to see the Senatorial fight come to
an end at once. This continued delay
will do the party or State no good.
Knowing that a Senator cannot be
elected without caucus, the legislat-
ors should lose no time in holding one.
Joe Really, painter, West Oakland-Of
icourse there should be a caucus. That
lis the only way in which Republican
|Senator can be elected, and there should
be no further time lost
F. Kimmell, Berkeley, manager OF
Students Wood and Coal Company
lwould advocate that they stop foolng
and go to work say this as citizen
land a taxpayer. The better class OF
ipeople, not politicians are Disguised
with the present proceedings. great
many have expressed themselves to me
as being of that opinion.
F. C. Torrey, Berkeley-The way our
representatives are acting at Sacra-
lmento is nothing but a farce. II they
cannot do better than they have been
doing the whole lot of them should be
turned out They are not acting Tor
the good of the State by any means.
What we want is to get good repre-
Isentative man elected,
F. Speckman, cigar manufacturer
Rerkeley-Everybody is tired of the
deadlock. I sincerely hope that the
Iouestion will be decided by some means
Tor another. The way things are going
on now is terrible. There Is too much
monkey business going on. We sent
lour representatives up there to elect a
Senator. and we want to see them DO
it without any more fooling. That
lought to be the sentiment OF every non
lest man. The Republicans should set
tie their disputes and stand for some
one man.
Austin HILL 1918 Henry street, Berk-
Ieley-They have no business to have q
deadlock. That is not what they are
lup there for. They should have select
ed a representative long ago.
T c. r. McNulty, pharmacist, Berkeley
They have been engaged in this Sen
atorial fight long enough. An under
standing should be reached by some
means. The Republicans should settle
upon some candidate who has the
lproper qualifications and run him right
Through. Once this Senatorial muddle
lis Strengthened out our representatives
can give their attention to the legisla-
tive matters which are before them.
Editor Ellis, the Herald" Livermore
II am in favor of conference among
1.-THE Republican Assemblymen and Sel-
ators for the purpose of their agreeing
on somebody for the position of Sena-
