PALACE HOTEL. SANsFRANCISCO
= Oct. 20, 1904.
"To Members of Republican Commit
tees and Organizations-Elec day is
near at hand and few votes can be
changed. Our duty lies in getting Re-
publicans to the polls, having their
votes cast and honestly counted. We
ask you to secure volunteers to serve at
the voting booths on election day in
checking the lists, and in this way you
will know who the dilatory Republicans
are and who must then be reminded of
their duty. Every member of Repub-
lican committee or club should gladly
give his services to the party on elec-
tion day.
Especially in the closely contested
Congressional districts should you i'm
press upon voters the fact that trading
is to be the greatest effort of the en-
emy to secure votes for the Congress
sional nominees. Majorities for. the
head of our ticket will be so great that
if Republicans will adhere to the right
principle and vote the whole ticket our
candidates will all be elected.

SECOND DISTRICT.
The Santa Rosa Press Democrat con-
tributes this paragraph to the litera-

THE Call appears to have given up
its attempt to back up Mr.. McKinlay's
absurd claim that Bell had nothing
to do with securing the naval collier
appropriation but 1t has not yet apol-

senting him before the people nor to
Senator Perkins for garbling his in

The accuracy of The Calls version
of the collier legislation is vouched for
by Senator Perkins. Moreover Victor
II. Metcalf of President Roosevelt's
Cabinet wires to the Republican State
Central Committee that the collier
was obtained by Perkins SEN
ate amendment. The Calls orig
inal assertion that the only
achievement OF Bell in Congress
was the abolition of the canteen at the
Soldiers Home is amply verified. The
prohibition press is giving the Con-
gressman all the credit he deserves for
this legislation.
1t is common talk in political camps
that Bells declaration in favor of CIV
ing up the Philippine Islands will cost
him many votes on November 8. Bells
utterances at Colusa on the topic will
be discussed this coming week by all
the Republican campaign speakers OF
the Second District. Tt is the judg-
rnent of the State Central Committee
that the business men, workmen and
farmers Of California, irrespective of
party, are in favor of holding the ISL
ands and developing the trade of the
Orient The question is asked, Can a
district of California at this time af-
