Young woman named MS b., who
lives with her mother in one OF the
home counties, made an appointment
with the photographer in question.
The sitting was duly given, the photo
graph taken, aud after a aapse Of a
week The young woman received a
letter saying the photographs We're not
a success and asking for another sit

She agreed and as soon as possible
went tc London again and second

elapsed. and. as no proofs we're sent
she wrote, making inquiries. only to
receive a very arelogetic letter. say
ing that again the photographs were
failures and asking for a third sitting.
For the third time Miss b., came to
London
She was good natured gin and
contented herself with expressing the
hope that this time there would be a
alccessful result
In two days she received an urgent
letter from the photographer, asking
her to come up to his studio and bring
a friend with her
AS q result Of this letter Miss b.,
acc smpanied By her mother, paid a
fourth visit to the studio. and there
the photographer exhibited the amaz-
ing results Of he three sittings.
The actual photographs Of the girl
herself were quite good, but IN each
plate there was to be seen standing
beside her the figure OF a man holding
dagger in his uplifted hand The
features though faint wsse clearly dis

effect of this experience was so great
that she wrote TO India. breaking of

republIshed today, showing Gillett and
the railroad bosses and Abe Ruef be-
ing entertained at banquet in Santa
Cruz.
He said he wanted to call the atten-
tion Of the audience to some Of the
figures in the picture. He found there
Judge J. w. Mckinley, chief counsel
OF the Southern Pacific I'm Southern
California, and therefore chairman OF
the recent convention at Santa Cruz,
and Walter Parker, hlrelins Of the
railroad company. He called their par
ticular attention to the beaming ooun-
tenance Of Abe Ruef and emphasized
& affectionate hand Of James NJ Gil
lett on the shoulder of Abraham Ruef.
Disappointing News From Roosevelt
Bell called attention to the fact that
Gillett, after he was nominated, had
anxiously expected a telegram from
President Roosevelt, congratulatlng
him upon his nomination, and was dis
appointed when he did not receive one.
Only one letter was sent in response
to all the pleas. That was signed by
the acting secretary of the president
and gave to the Gillettites absolute
lv not one ray of hope.
Recently It had been stated that the
president, in an interview with an
ex-assemblyman of California, had in
timated mis- desire for Gillett's election.
To prove the absolute untruth of
q Ctn fnr A1aN L.. Il
the attention of his hearers to that
nights Bee, in which the president
said, in answer to question put
straight to him by the Bee represen-
tative, that he had never made any
declaration that could be so construed.
and that he stood by the statement
set forth in the letter signed by Acting
Secretary Foster
Roosevelt In other States
Mr.. Bell then went on to call the
attention of his audience to the fact
that Theodore Roosevelt is now help
Ing Charles E. Hughes, the Republic
can nominee for governor of New York.
and that he recently sent members of
his cabinet into New York and Penn
sylvania to fight against Republican
rottenness in those states.
He advised the Republican bosses in
California not to invoke the name OF
Theodore Roosevelt too loudly, for it
might cause him to make an investi-
cation. And if he did, the result might
be that he would ask his whole cab
met to rush over to California to fight
the nominee of the Santa Cruz rotten
ness and to battle for the peoples
ticket.

nomination was influenced by Abe
Ruef.
"Do you know that If Mayor Schmitz
and Abe Ruef had not delivered the
votes they controlled of the San Fran
cisco delegation over to Gillett he
would not have been nominated? And
do you know that for these votes Gill
lett promised to Mayor Schmitz two
of the three harbor commissioners, an
important body. and the patronage of
the state printing office at Sacra-
mento?
"And, further than that, do you
know that Gillett placed Abe Ruef on
his executive committee, and that to-
day Ruef, the man that George Knight
says should be in Hades, is still a
member of that committee?

GOING TO DO WITH ABE RUEF?' -

RUEF'S BIG HACKERS

Abe Ruef at bay, backed by his allies
and heelers, with the reputable people
of San Francisco pressing in front, is
spectacle that concerns every section
of California. In this amazing condi-
tion San Francisco is merely the storm
center of cyclone that is felt in every
county of the state.
The issue in the struggle of which the
notorious Ruef is the central figure
extends far beyond the personality of
the little Mephistophelian who has
dominated San Francisco. The fact is
known throughout the United States,
nearly as well as in California, that
Ruef is potent factor in the control of
state affairs, as well as in the local
affairs Of that city. The intimacy of
Ruef with the Southern Pacific and
Republican machine combine is familiar
to all American newspaper readers.
If Ruef succeeds in his defiance of the
decent element of San Francisco the
effect will be not only disastrous to that
city but damaging to every other COM
munity in the state. Ruef's immediate
following Of grafters and other crimi-
nails is not strong enough to save him
from the penal retribution he Is said to
have earned. Only by powerful cor
porate influence can he successfully
defy law, order and social decency in
San Francisco.
If Ruef makes, good his boast to win
in the pending struggle it will be OBJ
vious to all observers, near and far,
that the potential corporate and politi-
cal combine came to the rescue of its
most serviceable ally.
What will be the effect abroad OF
such an outcome as the failure Of San
Franciscos decent citizens to curL
Abe Ruef? The failure will be
evidence abroad that not only Sar
Francisco but the whole state of Cali
fornia is helpless in the embrace OF the
combine.
| There is only one effectual way ir
which to dispel that suspicion abroad
1t is by utterly routing at the polls mex
Tuesday the combine with which Abe
Ruef is allied and to which every mar
on the Republican state ticket owes
his nomination.

WHAT WILL THE VERDICT BET

In re The Democratic Party ct al Of
California vs.. The S. P.-Republican
machine, the plaintiffs now rest their
case.
The testimony for the prosecution
has been submitted at the bar of pub
lie opinion. The voters of the state
sitting as a jury, will weigh the evil
dence introduced on both sides and
Will render a verdict November 6.
The week intervening prior to the
election will be devoted to details pre-
paratory to the final act, rather than
to further discussion of issues involved
There really is nothing further to be
said on either side calculated to change
the already formed opinion of every
intelligent voter. Fully ninety-nine per
cent of California voters have definite
ly decided how their ballots shall be
cast. The other one per cent is made
up chiefly of the class who wait until
the last moment to decide how they
shall vote.
Never did case go to a jury with
merits more clearly defined by testi-
mony than is presented in the pollt-
ical issues now pending The Demo-
cratic party and its non-partisan al
lies have proved the main points Of
their contention clearly and convincing
enough to insure, If 1t were a homicide
case, a verdict Of guilty and sem
tence to the scaffold.
No criminal "caught with the goods"
ever was more obviously guilty than
is Candidate Gillett Of being mortgaged
to the limit of his worth to the COM
bination represented in that telltale
photograph taken at Santa Cruz. Gil
lett Parker, Ruef and eight other
leaders Of the politico-railway machine,
all grouped lovingly at the festive
board whereat the Republican state
ticket was formulated. That picture
alone embodied evidence enough of the
coalition to hang a homicidal culprit.
But The Herald and other Democratic
and independent newspapers have pre-
scented that pictorial evidence so vivid
ly that all voters in the state should
be familiar with 1t now. And that
picture, as readers know, was simply
a climax of incontrovertible testimony
that has been adduced ever since the
beginning of the campaign. The Santa
Cruz banquet photograph is what
grain farmers call the cap-sheaf-the
last sheaf-that rounds and completes
the shock or stack.
In the few days remaining prior to
the election the politico-railway ma
chine will resort, undoubtedly, to des-
perate efforts in the attempt to break
the connecting link with which the
testimony has chained together the
Republican candidate for governor and
his "chums," as depicted in the photo
graph-Parker, Ruef and the rest.
But political dust from such a source
is not likely to blind the eyes Of
California voters The desperate eff
forts of the combine will be "sized
up" at their true value. The combine
cannot fool all the California voters
some of the time nor some of the vot-
ers all the time-to adopt the famous
saying of Lincoln.

HONEST BEN WARD

1t is important to the friends Of Ben
e. Ward. non-partisan nominee for
assessor and honest man, that all the
Charges" insinuations and machina-
tions against him be known now and
at once, in order that they may be
promptly and vigorously refuted.
The latest allegations, trumped up
by the corporation managers, are three
in number, and in reality refute them
selves They are as follows:
1. That Ben E. Ward, in order to
enrich himself, caused to be copied
various lists of property owners from
the assessment rolls and sold the same
to certain merchants and business men
who desired to use such lists to send
out advertising matter.
Well, what of il? What if Ben
Ward did do that very thing? Was
there anything dishonest about 1t? The
assessment books are public records,
and any man has the right to copy
from them at times when such copying
may not interfere with the business OF
the assessors office. Isn't that true
But
2. The corporations declare, with
great glee, that Ben. Ward, in making
such copies, charged some persons
more than others. AS, for instance, he
charged the Pacific Purchasing COM
pany 1915.
Well, what of it The Pacific Pur-
chasing company is a trade combina-
| tion which includes half dozen lead
ing stores. The Pacific Purchasing
company undoubtedly used the list OF
names to send out advertising matter
for each of it's half a sdozen houses
If it was a fair compensat ation to charge
one of those stores $62.SO, it was per-
fectly fair and proper for him tC
charge all six of them just six times
$625O. Wasn't it?
g. That Ben. E. Ward failed to as
sess the franchises of the Maier
Zobelein Brewing company and O.
Ascot park. But
AS a matter of fact the Maier 6
zobelein Brewing company is not cor
poratlon, but copartnership, and ha
no franchise; 1t is assessed as a co
partnership at $4,000. The grounC
at Ascot park is owned by woman
who pays the taxes on the land, Will,
the buildings and improvements ar
assessed at $15O,0O0.
In truth, all the charges madi
against Ben T.. Ward. honest man ant
faithful assessor. are of this sam'
flimsy and idiotic character. The biz
corporations are making a special roa
on Ward because he dared inereas,
their assessments. and the assessment
would have been much larger II the.
had not been summarily reduced b!
the supervisors-which goes to show
again. the importance OF having com
petent supervisors as well as an hon
est assessor.
Ben Ward need not worry. He ha
the confidence Of the people, and hi
friends are not afraid OF any and al
charges" that can be preferred by hi
! corporation enemies.
