Ferrari's Case Submitted

At 10 o'clock this morning Judge
Sloss will decide the matter of the ap-
plication of Louis Ferrari for a writ
Of mandate compelling the Election
Commissioners to place his name on
the official ballot as candidate for JUS
tiee of the peace. He was nominated
by the Democratic convention to fill
the Office now held by Isidore Golden,
who was appointed by Governor Par
dee to I'LL the unexpired term of Percy

his own case yesterday and the Elee-
tion Commissioners were represented
by Edmund Tauzsky. Mr.. Tauzsky's
contention was that Golden was en-
titled to the Office until the next cleo
ton for justice of the peace in 1906,
and he declared that the charter pro-
vision for a two-year term was not a
law-the Office being a constitutional

FIGHT IN THE FIFTH.

Some 500 of the employees of the Union
Iron Works assembled at the noon hour
yesterday to hear E. A. Hayes, Repub-
mean candidate for Congress in the
Fifth Congressional District Mr..
Hayes was introduced by A. d. Porter,
business manager of the Brotherhood
OF Boilermakers and Iron Ship Builders
of America. Mr.. Porter pointed out that
the interests of the workingmen lie
with the administration that is in DOW
er and with the Republican Congress
that will continue in power after the
coming election; that a Republican
Congressman would be able to obtain
appropriations for the building of war
ships here to the great benefit of the
men of the iron works, and that their
interests are in securing the election of
such Congressman. He laid stress on
the necessity of sending a man to Con-
gress who would favor the merchant
marine.
Mr.. Hayes spoke of his great interest
in the workmen of this country, having
been born on a Wisconsin farm and
having employed labor during the last
twenty years; that in all his relations
friction that had not been adjusted to
their satisfaction: that he treated his
employees as coworkers and had always
insisted upon his foremen refraining
from cursing and from antagonizing
those under his charge; that he had
never employed Mongolian labor and
believed not only in the exclusion of it,
but in it's deportation. He declared for
eight hours for the working day and
even for less in some ,employments. He
dwelt for some time on the question of
protection and showed how their true
interests. lie in maintaining this doc
trine and putting it in force by high
tariff upon the products of cheap for
eign labor so as to enable the workmen
of America to compete successfully
against such importations. On these
matters and his declarations for the
encouragement of home manufactures
his remarks met with great approval.
Mr.. Hayes was listened to attentively
and his hearers left him reluctantly.
From the Union Iron Works Mr.. Hayes
and his party went to Lachman &
Jacobi's, where he met the employees
and delivered a short address.

Appeal Promptly Filed

Alexander B. Garnett, convicted OF
murder in the second degree by jury
in Judge Lawlor's court for shooting
and killing Major j. w. McClung in the
apartments OF Mrs. Elizabeth w. Colt
in the Palace Hotel on November %.
was sentenced yesterday to serve hf-
teen years in San Quentin. He took
his sentence calmly.
When the case was called the Judge
denied the motion for a new trial and
also a motion for arrest OF Judgment
made by Attorney George ID. Collins
The Judge In passing sentence referred
to the recommendation for mercy made
by the Jury, but said that the defend
ants invasion OF Mrs. Colts apart
ments was an outrage upon her rights
and such acts must be denounced by
the courts. After reviewing the cir
eumstances Of the case, the Judge said
he would deal with it as II the defend
ant did not go to Mrs. Colts apart
ments with a full-hedged purpose OF
committing a felony. After sentences
was pronounced, Attorney Collins filed
a notice Of appeal to the Supreme
Court.
When Attorney Collins went to the
Judge and asked for certificate Of
probable cause the Judge said: Why
don't you let Garnett go to San Quen-
tin and after a year maybe something
can be done for him." Collins replied:
Mr.. Garnett is a Southern gentleman
and does not want to see the inside Of
penitentiary till he is sent there by the
Supreme Court"
One of the features Of the case was
the non-appearance of Mrs. Colt at the
trial. She testified at the preliminary
hearing before Police Judge Fritz, but
almost Immediately thereafter left the
city and went to Paris, France

lures on the petitions to ascertain If
they are bona fide. He was authorized
to act, without further authority from
the board, on the results Of the exam
ination by his office force.

petitions. and if he can secure the re-
quired per cent Of voters in other dis
tricts by this evening he will have in
dependent candidates in those precincts
as well to place on the ballot. To-day

election officer. The following were ex-
cused because of absence from the
city: Sig. Greenebaum, NJ. Branden-
stein, Jasper Mcdonald. z. M. Green
way and Frank ]. Devlin.
The contract for delivering the cleo
ton supplies was awarded to H. B.
Terry, his bid being 1892.
1t was decided to ask the Civil Ser
vice Commission for a mechanic to care
for the voting machines and not to
press the application to the Supervisors
for allowance of an all-round me-
chanic, for which there is no provision
in the Civil Service Department. If the
mechanic does not prove satisfactory
a request will then be made that the
Commissioners be permitted to make
their own selection. A suggestion from
Voorsanger that the Civil Service
Board be asked to hold an examina-
ton for machine caretaker was not
taken up.

PARKER RECEIVES REPORTS.
Nominee Told of Situation in Indiana
and New Jersey.


NEW YORK, Oct. 18.-The politi-
cal situations in Indiana and New
Jersey were the most important af-
fairs of the Democratic campaign
considered by Judge Parker after he
arrived here to-day. A report was
made to him concerning Indiana by
Simon P. Sheril. who was secretary
of the Democratic National Commit
tee in 1892.
1t is said the conference did much
to shape the contest to be waged by
Indiana Democrats for supremacy in
the election. The announcement was
made bv Indianans who called on
Judge Parker that the prospects of
carrying Indiana. as shown bv a
fourth canvass, were encouraging. No
figures were given out.
In New Jersey the situation is re-
ported TO be far more complex than
in any of the doubtful States, and the
result more dependent upon the work
done in the remaining two and one
half weeks of the campaign This
was the judgment of former Senator
James j. Smith Jr.. who called on
Judge Parker and declared certain the
election of Black for Governor. and
predicted that the Democratic ma
tional ticket also would win.
Judge Parker's position on the serv-
ice pension order was given support
by General John w. Kay of Brooklyn,
who called on the candidate. The
general said he could assure Judge
Parker he would lose no Democratic
votes By his declaration that if elected
he woulud revoke the executive order
and use his influence to have Congress
enact service law.

for the Leaders Of Party.
Special Dispatch to Tn. CAN.

PASADENA, Oct. 18.-Governor Par
dee, Congressman James McLachlan
and Senator Ward of San Diego ad-
dressed the biggest Republican rally
Of the campaign here tonight. The
meeting was preceded by street
parade in which the police. the
Crown City Band the American
Club, the Colonial Club. the Col
ored. Republican Club. the speakers
and prominent Republicans took part.
The parade lasted half hour and dur
ing it's progress the Shotgun Club fired
volley after volley and red fire galore
was burned. The streets were throng-
ed with people.
Chairman c. NJ. Simpson introduced
Congressman McLachlan, who was
made chairman of the meeting. Nc
Lachlan paid a glowing tribute to the
late u. S. Bangham and w. S. Melick
and then gave way to Governor Par
dee, who received an ovation when he
took the platform.
Il stand here with mingled pride and
tears" said the Governor. Pride that
you are fellow citizens of w. S. Me-
lick, my late esteemed and loved fellow
public officer. There never was man
who nestled so closely to my heart, who
served so we'll the people who confided
in him.
Il often wonder what the people of
this country would do if they did not
have somebody to elect all the time.
We go from one election to another
like cats from one fit to another. Now
we must elect a man to fill the Pres
a hat nd 90
Parker and man we have known for
years, Roosevelt. We had tariff for
revenue and free trade under Cleve-
land and it nearly bankrupted US. Now
our Republican prosperity helps the
Democrats and ourselves alike. / don't
like that arrangement and have been
trying for years to think up a remedy.
They say that tariff for revenue robs
no one, but from '93 to 97 it robbed
everybody and yet our Democratic
friends say it is a good thing. You
will remember that from '93 to '97 were
long, hard years. Perhaps they were
not any longer, but, by George. they
seemed longer; so when the people
had enough of it they elected that
great and good man. Mckinley. and
prosperous again.
Times never were better than now.
There were never so many full dinner
pals and so many full savings ac-
counts. Now. if could have my way
I would decide mans prosperity by
the ticket he votes. 1t would be his
own fault then if he voted for Demo-
cratic hard times and his reward if
he voted for Republican prosperity.
There have been many loyal Democrats
who have fought for their country, but
they have that one forgivable sin
of being Democrats. One of them said
to me: I'm Democrat and have to
vote for Parker, but / hope Roosevelt
will get it,
"They say Roosevelt is an unsafe man.
He is for grafters. They, don't like
him because he shot a Spaniard in the
back, but where else could he shoot
him? They say he is impetuous, but
we know Of the quiet things he has ac-
complished."
Senator Ward of San Diego was the
last speaker He prophesied great
victory for the Roosevelt ticket

GREAT RALLY IN MARIN.

SAN RAFAEL, Oct 1S.-One of the
largest and most enthusiastic political
meetings held in Marin County during
the present campaign was held In the
opera-ho tonight and was ad-
dressed by Senators Belshaw and
Shortridge. Chairman Martinelli first
introduced R. j. Davis. candidate for
Supervisor. and S. H. Olmsted, nominee
for the Assembly. Both gentlemen
made short but effective addresses.
Senator Belshaw spoke at length
upon the principal issues of the cam
paign. He began by calling attention
to the various constitutional amend
ments submitted to the voters for rat
ification or rejection. He advised The
voters to vote for amendments estab-
fishing court of appeals, giving the
Board of Harbor Commissioners power
to float bonds for the completion of the
sea wall, relieving the Academy of
Sciences from taxation and exempting
from taxation a ship entering the har-
bors Of the State and household furni-
ture to the value of $100. He advised
the rejection of the proposition to per-
NIT the codes to be amended in an om-
nibus bill and the one changing the
sessions Of the Legislature,
Senator Belshaw then took up the
national questions. The affairs OF the
nation during the last four years. he
said, had been so satisfactorily con-
Quoted and the country is upon such
sound financial basis that the people
do not care to change the administra-
ton. The issues fought out four years
ago had not been revived, he said, and
there being nothing on which the
Democrats could appeal to the voters
of the country, they seek to gain VIC
tory by attacking the personality Of
President Theodore Roosevelt. This
attack, said the speaker, in view Of
the great confidence the people have
in the President is bound to react
upon the Democrats to their disadvan-
tage and defeat.
Senator Belshaw closed with ring
ing appeal to the young voters to care
fully consider the needs and condi-
tions of the country and to vote the
Republican ticket from top to bottom
His speech was received with enthusi-
asm and he was frequently interrupted
by applause.
Senator Charles M. Shortridge was
the next speaker. He opened in his
usual inimitable way with few
humorous comments on the political
situation. Senator Shortridge then paid
. high compliment to the work done by

Congressman GilIett Tells Citizens of
Red Bluff About Caminetti.

Red Bluff About Caminetti.
RED BLUFF, Oct. ia very large
and enthusiastic audience greeted Con-
gresham Gillett and Senator Selvage
at Pavilion Opera-house tonight. Gill
lett arrived on an early train this
morning and made friends with hum
F. Ellison presided at to-night's meet
ing.
Gillett scored Congressman < Bells
false claim in regard to securing $4,000
for the upper Sacramento River He
said no river and harbor bill was
passed by the last Congress, but upon
recommendation of Major Heuer $22,-
900 was given the upper Sacramento
from the emergency appropriation of
So 10000 Gillett reviewed his work in
Congress to aid the settlers in Mono
County, to aid the hydraulic miners,
to secure pensions for the old soldiers
and to relieve various counties from
the encroachment of forest reserves.
He punctured many ridiculous claims
made by his opponent, Caminetti, who
claimed that he had secured the re-
moval of duty on grain bags and thus
deserved the gratitude of California
farmers. Gillett read a telegram from
Collector Stratton OF San Francisco
saying that Caminetti had never intro
duced a bill to repeal the duty on
grain bags or jute. He told how Cam
inetti had sought, when in Congress-
TO defeat the appropriation of $3.50, 600
secured for Eureka harhor by Con-
gressman Geary.
Wool, cattle and lumber are the lead
ing products Of Tehama County, and it
was told how Caminetti voted to put
these on the free list. Gillett made a
most excellent impression and he will
be given a large majority in Tehama
County.
Hon. T. H. Selvage Of Eureka, candi-
date for State Senator, followed Gillett,
and made a strong and convincing ar
gument on national issues. He also
made good impression.

BEDFORD. Ind, Oct. 1s.-The spe-
ciaI train which is carrying William
]. Bryan on his tour of Indiana was
more than two hours late In reaching
this city for the mass meeting to-
night. which was the closing event Of
the programme of the sixth day. Bry-
ans voice shows evidence of the
strain which he is undergoing. New
ertheless the large audience listened
for an hour and a half to his discus
sion of the political issues.
The speaker delivered his address
from temporary stand erected in the
courthouse park. The park. which
covers four acres Of ground. was filled
with people from the country and
surrounding towns. Bryan made an
earnest appeal for the support of the
Democratic national and State tickets
