you can say that the meetings SAT-
urday night and the warmth Of the re-
ception ac, ~ded me have been most
gratifying and bear out my statement
that the Republicans of Californit are
in revolt against the Southern Paclhc
machine" said Theodore A. Bell as he
was preparing to BOARD the 1880 coast
line train yesterday afternoon.
II feel more convinced that the entire
Democratic ticket with the aid Of self
respecting Republicans, the united
Democratic vote and that of laboring
men who believe in a square deal, Will
be elected
I'VE will come to the Tehachapi with
81 majority which 1 am confident VIII
not be overcome.
Expresses Opposition
"whie the successful and enthusiast
tic meetings held last night were most
gratifying, still more so was the man
ner In which the people, Republicans
and Democrats alike, come to me per-
sonally at the hotel and assured me of
their support. 1 certainly appreciate
all the kindness that has been shown
me, and l shall return to Southern
California during the latter part of the
present week full of confidence In the
final outcome of the election.
II want to thank The Herald for its
magnificent and truthful report Of the
dayss proceedings. Aside from the
political feature, L have enjoyed my
visit, to Los Angeles immensely, and l
shall be glad to return to this vicinity,
where shall remain about two weeks.
1.-The conditions certainly are In our
favor" declared Hon. James d. Phelan.
There certainly is a spirit Of revolt in
the Republican party against the
Southern Pacific machine ticket, and I
look for great victory for honest gov
ernment and freedom from corporation
rule"
You can say for me that there is not
the slightest doubt as to the overthrow
of the Southern Pacific machine" de-
clLred Hon. Timothy Spellacy, chair
man of the state central committee.
II believe so per cent of the Repub-
lican vote of the San Joaquin valley
will go to Dell. The Republican papers
cannot say a thing against any man
on our ticket. Every one of them is
honest, upright in every respect and
absolutely free from corporation in
fiuences.
81 look to see Hearst defeated in New
York by 100000 majority. If there ever
comes a time when the Democratic
party of California becomes tied to the
corporations as the Republican party
is today l will walk out of it," declared
