PREP PARATIONS
FOR ELECTION
Precinct Registration Will
Take Place in This City
Two Days Next Week
CONGRESSIONAL TALK
Republicans Hope to Elect
a Solid Delegation of
Eight Representatives

Precinct registration in San Fran
cisco will be on for two days next week
and the Republican State Central Com
mittee, the County Committee and AS
sembly District clubs wilT use vigorous
efforts to bring to the mind Of every
unregistered voter the important duty
of registration. Politicians note that
there is something akin to apathy in
the present campaign. The Republi-
cans are so confident of an overwhelm-
ing victory at the November election
that they are not giving close atten-
tion to the general duties of organiza-
tion in the several precincts.
When the Templar and Native Son
festivities are brought to close the
party committees will take up the un-
finished work of the campaign. The
Republican and Democratic local con-
ventions will assemble this month to
nominate legislative and judicial cam
didates. The Fourth Congressional Dis
trict Republican Convention will meet
in this city Thursday evening, Septem-
Der %.
There are many indications that the
Republicans will elect a solid delega-
tion of eight Representatives from CAL
ifornfa In fact the only doubtful dis
trict is the Fourth. Duncan E. McKin-
lay is winning the favor of the voters
of the Second District, and S. G. Smith
Is doing excellent work in the Eighth.
Hon. Leslie M. Shaw, Secretary OF
the Treasury, will address mass
meeting at Reno, New, this evening.
Governor Pardee is in San Francisco.
He attended the reception at the Mark
Hopkins Institute of Art last evening.
Frank P. Flint, candidate for United
States Senator. has returned to Los
Angeles. Senator Thomas Flint of San
Benito is in town, and Is daily receiv-
ing assurances of Californians that
they intend to support his candidacy
for the United States Senate. AS the
latter is not an aspirant for the Sena-
torial toga he is called upon to explain
that Frank Flint of Los Angeles is the
one of that name who aspires to rep
resent California in the Senate Of the
United States.

FAIRBANKS IN HARTFORD.
Immense Crowd Cheers the Vice Pres
idential Nominee.

HARTFORD, Conn, Sept. S.-The
campaign in Connecticut on the part
of the Republicans was opened at the
Auditorium tonight by a rally at
which Charles w. Fairbanks, the Re-
publican Vice-Presidential candidate,
was the chief speaker. He was enthu-
siastically received by an audience that
exhausted the seating capacity of the
hall. and throughout was given close
attention.
Republican politics have never been
menace to the business interests Of
the country" said the Senator. Their
triumph has never been awaited with
serious apprehension.
Our Democratic friends express the
opinion that we are doing but little
for the farmers. They were never more
in error. The Agricultural Depart
ment was never accomplishing more
than 1t is to-day under Secretary viii
son. During the last year the value
of farms has increased almost beyond
the power of computation. The Re
publican party has been loyal to the in
terests of the farmers Of the United
States. The farmers of Vermont on
Tuesday last emphasized their conf
dence in the virtue and efficacy of Re-
publican policies"

nominated James H, Moyle of Salt

clamation and Moyle had a large ma
jority of the votes for Governor over

amid much cheering, contained the
following plank:
The Democratic party neither seeks nor fears
the interference OF any ecclesiastical power

ical nominations or to control political con-
ventions: We hold that American citizens are
politically free and equal, and the people

eral, Grant C. Bagley; Auditor of
