Yesterday the wage workers of the

esy of Manager Richard Spreckels,
had the pleasure Of meeting and con-
tversing with the Republican candidate
Tor Congress in the Fifth District. Mr..
Eayes, accompanied by H. ]. Angels,
THic visit 10 that great mandatory,
and il was late in the day before his
visit ended. Not one of the eleven
hundred workmen failed to meet and
shake hands with the visitor. Many
Of them talked with him over the po-
litical situation and the outcome
evincing a great desire to have a con-
tinuance Of the present administra-

elected and the Republican majority
in the House increased was expressed.

the nominee at every place. Mr.. Kahn
utters no words derogatory to the
Democratic nominee. He quotes the
records and cites facts showing what
Republican rule has done for the
country in the line of affording en-
ployment and living compensation tc
the workers. He compares the wages
OF to-day with the scant wages paid
when the Democrats held the reinl
