In an interview last night Robert G..
Loucks, the Democratic nominee for
congress from the Seventh district
said:
''There is no tariff issue in this cam
paign. In case the tariff should be
revised pledge my support for every
measure designed to protect the prod
uct of the farm and allN the citrus
and deciduous fruits of California. Be
sides, l stand with Beveridge and
Cummings, Republican representatives,
in the placing on the free list of all
trust and monopoly made goods.
1.-The issue is save San Pedro harbor
from the clutches of the Southern Pa
cific, which filches from the people
of California $40,0OO,00O annually. The
issue is shall the Luthern Brown-Wal-
ter Parker-JaS. McLachlan triumvirate
place a Southern Pacific halter on
every free-born American citizen in
this district? Does any thinking, de-
cent Republican intend to stand for
this? Where is there any PARTISAN
ship in this fight? The Southern Pa
cific and McLachlan have made 1t their
business issue to stife competition and
hold up the people, so let us, the peo-
pie unite on q private business is

men enemies of the country.
''This is not personal matter
against Mr.. McLachlan but political

therefore, could not nominate man
who had been tried and in reality was
defeated.
AS to Hayes, the San Jose man has a
brother in congress-, and the Republi-
cans could not afford to give all the
Offices to one family.
Warren Porter was very nice man,
he declared, but he didn't have votes
enough, and that settled him. This left
only Gillett, and the fight was ended.
In speaking of the Democratic con-
vention Gov. Gage said that il the
Democrats had been sincere In desiring
the nomination of man who was
known as an opponent of corporations
they would have nominated Joseph H.
Call of Los Angeles, who has made a
wonderful record in his fight against
railroads and recovered millions of
acres of land which the railroads had
Illegally seized.
He made no attempt to personally
criticise the Democratic nominee for
governor.
GiIIett Speaks
Mr.. Gillett was given very cordial
reception when he was introduced. He
assured his hearers at the outset that,
Notwithstanding the statements of his
Democratic opponent he was not tied
to any corporation, land when | am
elected governor / will be the repre-
sentative of every man, whether he be
rich or poor"
Mr.. Gillett twice repeated the phrase
when / am elected governor" and at
the plaza earlier in the evening he said
1t on two occasions.
The Republican nominee denounced
the Democrats for attempting to con-
fine the discussion to state issues. Then
he began discussion Of national af-
fairs and told what the Republican
party had accomplished In years gone
by.
Spanards Are Aroused
An incident occurred at the plaza
meeting earlier in the evening which
prominent Spanish-Amerlcans say will
result in the loss of scores If not hum
dreds of votes to the Republican ticket.
Mr.. Gillett and Mr.. Porter had been
given pleasant reception at the quar-
ters by the Latin-American Republican
league in the Nadeau, during which Mr..
Gillett was presented, In a very sweet
manner, with a choice bouquet by Miss
Helen Gertrude Dominguez, the seven
year-old daughter of President Domin-
guez of the league.
Later the guests were driven to the
plaza, where Mr.. Dominguez introduced
them. and In response they spoke
briefly. then headed parade to Simp-
son auditorium.
After their departure there were ad-
dresses In both Spanish and English
While r. f. Sepulveda was speaking in
Spanish an unknown man in the audi
ence interrupted him by saying in Span
ish that Sepulveda did not know what
he was talking about.
The speaker, it is said, replied in the
most vile and disgusting manner, re-
gardless Of the presence In the audi
ence of a number of Spanish American
and Mexican women.
Jose Lamadrid, Mexican gentleman
visiting Los Angeles said last night
that he called the attention of two po-
licemen to the Language being used, but

permitted to conclude his speech.

FAIR ONE UNDERGOES TRYING
ORDEAL
Wedding Ceremony Ends With Ban-
quet, at Which Pretty Little
Woman Appears Before Her
Husbands Guests

With the nuptial ceremony of the
orient, observed for the first time in
many years in the local Chinese set
tlement, Capt. Ben Oyang, business
manager of the Chinese World, and
assistant director of the great Chinese
reform movement in this country, took
unto himself a bride. last night when
before his assembled friends in the
banquet hall at $50 Marchessault street
he declared pretty little Miss Wuun OF
Fresno to be his wife.
The wedding of the popular young
couple has been the talk of the local
Chinese settlement for months past,
and when fire and disaster in San
Francisco separated them for a time
there was sigh of regret for the
eyes of every Chinese of culture and
wealth in the west have been upon
the young couple and their prospec-
tive happiness.
The groom, Captain Oyang, has dis
tinguished himself both in America
and in China. He is a native of the
United States having been born in San
Francisco. He received his education
and military training in this country
and has been such a foremost worker
in the cause of the reform association
which hopes some day to have the rule
of China, that when that day comes,
Captain Oyang will be one of China 8
ministers.
Bride a Famous Beauty
The bride is known as the prettiest
Chinese woman in this country. She
also Is native American, having been
born in San Francisco, nineteen years
ago. She has been carefully edu-
Gated and is considered the most ELI
gible bride of the seasons debutantes.
Her family are also well known, her
brother being a famous Chinese editor
and writer, and her family well-to do.
The match was made some months
ago in San Francisco. AS is the GUS
tom, a paid matchmaker acted as
go-between In the case. A photograph
of the girl was taken to the gallant
captain and he was allowed to see
the fair features of the beautiful little
woman. Then his picture was shown
the girl, but the girl has very little
to say in a Chinese wedding. All
Chinese weddings must be love at first
sight because the groom never sees
the girl until the day of the wedding.
If from a glance at the photograph
he imagines that the face before him
is the face of the woman for whom he
has longed, then he sends a gift OF
several thousand sweet cakes to her
parents as preliminary step In nego-
tiations. Captain Oyang sent many
thousand cakes, for the cakes are TO be
sent to friends, cousins and relatives
IN all parts OF the world and the bride
to-be had many such. From each she
received. according to the mandatory
custom of the orient, beautiful
present.
