TO make the campaign for Judge Dunno
and their judicial ticket the leaders of
the good government league have sent
appeals to $50 men asking them to con-
tribute SO each to the cause.
IA During their last campaign the good
government leaguers found hearty re-
sponse to their calls for financial as
sistance and they feel confident that
the same condition obtains at present.
The progress of the fight so far they
regard as very satisfactory and they
have no fear as to the outcome.
The time has arrived for the figur-
ing of pluralities and the leaders of the
republican and democratic parties are
to show by what numbers Taft or
Bryan, as the case may be, will carry
California
Notwithstanding that Roosevelt car
ried this state by a plurality of more
than $4,000, the democrats profess the
greatest confidence in their ability to
take it away from the grand old party.
I'VE will put California in the demo-
cratic column this time" said John F.
Murray. secretary of the state central
committee, yesterday. That will mean
landslide, even If our plurality is
small. I figure that our plurality will
be not less than 10000 and 1t seems
more probable to me that it will ap-
proach $4,000. San Francisco we will
carry by plurality of 10000
After. three days spent in the south
land in company with Senator Dolliver,
Phil Teller chairman Of the repub-
lican state centrol committee, returned
to headquarters yesterday. ready to
say something about pluralities.
we will carry California" he de-
clared. by whatever plurality the
south gives the ticket and l estimate
that that will be between $4,000 and
35, 000."
TAFT WILL CARRY CITY
This would indicate that the repub-
lican managers expect Taft and Bryan
TO run about neck and neck in the
northern part of the state. Asked
about San Francisco. Teller admitted
that it was difficult to figure the out
come at this time, but he laughed at
the claims of the democrats and de-
clared that Taft would carry the city.
