The San Francisco call., 1906-09-10
Says An-Round Endorsement Will
Be Denied District Attorney.

Never in hundred years will the
Union Labor party nominate Langdon
for Governor" That's the way one of
the leaders in the labor convention re-
plies to a suggestion that an effort is
to be made for an all-round indorse-
ment of the District Attorney. In the
municipal election last year Langdon,
who got his chief nomination for Dis
trict Attorney from the Union Labor
convention, was, next to Mayor Schmitz,
the speediest campaigner of the era.
Hand in hand with the Mayor he went
from Telegraph Hill to Twin Peaks,
handing out the catchy. platitude, which
like Doodle Dee means nothing. But
Langdon, like Schmitz, present a good
front and can utter many, many words
without stopping to catch his breath.
His fogproof voice has not that allur-
ing, penetrating quality which rem
ders the speech of Frank H. Gould so
acceptable to the Bourbon and neither
is his humor refreshing or rich in
cynicism like that of Gavin McNab,
but nevertheless he is a vote-getter and
knows when and where to wear his
halo.
When the municipal campaign ended
with victory for every Union Labor
nominee Langdon saw the deluge of
champagne in honor of the triumph
He read the inscription on the future
slate: "Schmitz for Governor, Ruef for
United States Senator and Langdon for
Mayor" Time changes many slate,
and perhaps now 1t cannot be said Of
the Bourbon. as it was once. written:
He learns nothing; he forgets moth
ing"
e "READY TO LEARN"
A Democrat tells me that the Bour-
bons of the United States are now
rallying under the leadership of Will
liam Jennings Bryan, and are ready to
learn something and forget everything.
1t is quite obvious to the dullest Bour-
bon that the Doodle Dee campaign was
framed up to dispel the belief or the
Illusion of the Bourbon that Bryan is
the only Moses that can lead the chill
dren of Democracy to victory and
spoils.
California has had many famous
Democratic conventions. 1 recall the
one in Union Hall, San Francisco,
when William Irwin was nominated for
Governor; also the one at San Jose
which nominated George Stoneman for
Governor and elected Uncle George
Hearst president of the Down and
Out Club" Not least OF the round
up was one at the Baldwin Theater, San
Francisco, where Barney Murphy Of
San Jose, supposed by the Bourbons to
be invincible, was outgeneraled by
James H. Budd.
Along the Democratic line hear the
inquiry: Where Is Budd in this
fracas?v Why Budd was not selected
by Hearst to organize the Independence

part Of the Chinese empire has beet

a Russian provincial newspaper. Rus

its old lust for dominion, cannot be de-
