CROCKER DECLARES
FOR SQUARE DEAL
Republican Candidate for Mayor
Addresses Two Enthusiastic
Audiences

William Crocker told the people OF
his own district last night that what
San Francisco needed was a business
man and not silver tongued orator for
a mayor.
The republican candidate reduced his
field to two points, speaking first at
Eintracht hall and again at the Audi
tOrium, Fillmore and Page streets. An
audience of 700 or 500 greeted Crocker
at the Auditorium and the crowd that
turned out at Eintracht filled the house.
At the Auditorium Senator Eddie
Wolfe preceded Crocker with sketch
of the iatter's life and the principles
for which he stood nos the least OF
which was a perfection of the juvenile
court system.
Epit0mizing the issues of the day
Crocker added the declaration that he
was in favor of granting franchises ac-
cording TO the city charter that would
guarantee street car and gas extension
10 outlying districts. Crocker recited
the fact that a class of so school chill
dren had taken a poll during the day
and out of a total of so the vote
showed 10 in his favor.
This is a pretty fair indication of
how my candidacy is being received in
the homes OF San Francisco, he said.
4 have looked into the question of
police and fire Improvement" contin-
ued Crocker. "and one of my first ef-
forts. If elected. Will be to establish
more fire houses and thereby reduce
the Insurance rate in these unprotected
districts.
L am no speaker, l am a plain busi-
nessman who has made his success in
San Francisco. and my heart is in San
Francisco. But San Francisco does not
need a silver tongued orator for a
mayor; what it needs is businessman
1 have made no pledges, but will make
this: If elected L win give every man a
square deal
Pointing to the front row of seats
Crocker said: There sits my old en-
pIoyer, Mr.. Scherer. L recall how he
gave me the keys to his safe years ago
and, Mr.. Scherer, you found every
nickel where you placed it, didn't you?
That is what San Francisco will find il
/ am elected"
After the<meeting at the Auditorium
Crocker accepted an invitation to the
retail grocers' ball at Kendrick hall
where he was introduced by Julius
Berenson and given an ovation.

HENEY CHEERED
BY WORKINGMEN
Prosecutor Declares Fickert
Was Chosen by Calhoun

Francis ]. Heney fiayed Calhoun and
Fickert and defended the graft prose-
cution at an enthusiastic meeting of
workingmen at Nineteenth and Harri-
son streets yesterday noon.
The graft prosecutor told how GER
tain banking interests We're conspir-
ing against the prosecution and how
their attempt through a committee of
seven to appoint. a board of super
visors to succeed the boodlers had been
frustrated, thus preventing the public
service corporations from having di-
rect control of the municipal govern
ment.
Asserting that Calhoun was backing
Fickert in this campaign, Heney said
that the United Railroads magnate had
likewise supported Frank MCGOWAN
two years ago
"McGowan was selected last time,'
said Heney. because he had been go
ing around denouncing Heney, but Cal
houn is sorry now because MCGOWAN
talked too much
Not only was it charged that Calhoun
was financing Fickert's fight, but
Heney also asserted that George Hew-
lett. Fickerts manager, had been asso-
ciated in land deal with George Chap
man. late manager of the United Rail-
roads.
"Chapman's son., said Heney, may
be seen going into Fickerts Office any
day and any night. and going to Hew-
lett's house every day and night carry
ing messages from Pat Calhoun
Robert Duke also spoke at the meet
ing and called attention to the fact
that it was the third anniversary of the
day when Abe Ruef attempted to have
himself established as district attor
ney.

CROCKER CHEERED
BY OLD EMPLOYEES
Republican Candidate Speaks to
Workmen at China Basin

William Crockers MONDAY meeting
yesterday in the China basin district
was one of the most successful of
the campaign. Three hundred work
ingmen from the railroad yards. the
lumber yards and other establishments
gathered to hear the republican STAN
dard bearer in a raightforward dis
cussion of the issues OF the campaign
Crocker made a very favorable i'm
preston Many men who had worked
with him or worked for him were in
the audience. and they were among
his most enthusiastic hearers. After
bis address Crocker distributed a large
number of his buttons and many per-
sons pressed forward to shake him
by the hand and give him the assur-
ance of their support next Tuesday.
That his sympatfies have always
been with union labor was shown by
Crocker. He told of having been a
laboring man himself. He worked his
way up and remained a union man as
long as he was eligible.
"As an employer" said Crocker, "I
always employed union men, / paid
the highest wages to get the best
men. l took pride in my mill and
made it my aim to turn out the best
work in the city. BY employing the
best men / was able to turn out the
best work. I always have been and
always will be fair to labor"

'CARTHY ATTACK
PROVES BOOMERANG
N
Criticises RoncOvieri for Going
Abroad and Later Joins Him
at Another Meeting

p. H. Mccarthy. union labor party
nominee for mayor, found himself in
peculiar position last night. At the
south San Francisco opera house he
criticised the present municipal ad-
ministration for many things, including
the sending abroad of A. Roneoveri Of
the board of education to study edu-
cationaI methods. An hour later Nc
carthy found himself on the same plat
form with Roncovieri in Siaplamat hall.
VAT Twenty-fourth and Folsom streets.
Mccarthy chatted on as merrily with
Roncovieri as though he had been prais-
ing him rather than speaking harsh
words.
Large audiences were addressed by
Mccarthy and the other union labor
party nominees in South San Fran
cisco opera house. Fourteenth avenue
south and Railroad avenue; Potrer0
theater. 1888 Kentucky street; Siapla-
mat hall Twenty-fourth and Folsom

street; the Victor athletic club. Twenty
third and Hampshire streets: the Co
lumbia athletic club. 474 Castro street
and at a colored dance in Garibaldi hall.
AL Broadway Mccarthy was well
coined as a charter member of the Co
lumbia club and took the ring after
Knockout to say he considered amateur
bouts legitimate sport and that ne
would like to be mayor.
Mccarthy made his usual promises OF
streets and sewers for the outlying dis
tricts and the speedy completion OF the
Hetch Hetchy water system, which he
is still asserting is a project made pos
sible by the union labor party leaders.
The present administration was blamed
for the poor condition of roads in South
San Francisco.
They have been so busy spending the
money for an indecent government that
you have been lost in the shuttle said
Mccarthy. When am mayor 1 shall
bring the pure water of Hetch Hetchy
here in the shortest time possible and
at the least possible cost. I am going
TO have the work done by men living In
San Francisco or elsewhere in the state
instead OF by aliens brought here TO
work for SIPS. $50 or s1.75 day"
Mccarthy renewed his charge that
the present administration had wasted
PUBIC money Oy rdZlnE the city hall,
and that it was scheme TO enrich Ger
tain persons who had bonded the prop
erty which il was proposed TO buy for
a civic center Mccarthy said he would
build new city hall on the old site
The assertion was made by Mccarthy
that he would poll more votes than
Crocker and Leland combined. who he
said. were lighting for second place
although he believed McDevitt OF the
socialist ticket would beat them both
for that position in the race.
Mccarthy is no longer talking at
length about the nine INDICATED soup
houses which he said were opened two
years ago. but he did say last night
that water and soap and the lack of
work had removed calIOus spots from
the hands Of many wOrkinEmen while
walking the streets in search OF en-
ployment had transferred the callOus
spots TO the feet. He insisted that the

Declares Republican Is Candi-
date of Public Service
Corporations

Hiram w. Johnson, Francis j. Heney,
DR.. T. B. w. Leland and Max Kuhl
were the speakers last night at an en-
thusiastic Leland meeting held under
the auspices of Leland republicans.
The hall OF the Young. Mems Hebrew
association at Page and Stanyan streets
was crowded. Among the well known
republicans on the platform were
Charles H. Bentley and Harry McKan-
address defied any set of men to read
him out of the party. Johnson attacked
Crocker, declared that he was the tool
and candidate of the public service cor
porations. Johnson said, in part:
Il would rather be a free spoken re-
publican than Tim Sullivan's candidate
for any office under the sun. The first
consideration before the people Is the
acquisition of a water supply. When
the republican candidate was first asked
about his views on the Hetch Hetchy
project he said he didn't know any
thing about it and didn't care to ex-
press an opinion. He had lived here "a
years A vote on this question had
which the people by to l had declared
for this supply. Still he didn't know
anything about it.
The Hetch Hetchy project has been
opposed by the single water monopoly
alone. We have been compelled to
struggle against those who would
withhold the inaccessible Hetch Hetchy
from 100000 persons, while there at
Tahoe, where the beautiful lake be-
tween the hills shines and shines, they
give the rights in perpetuity to a
private corporation.
After all this struggle, after the
newspapers have been full of it day
after day, the republican candidate
says he doesn't know anything about
it. Why? Because his very support
comes from the enemies of that prof
ect. On that issue the democratic
candidate is definite. He stands for
the acquisition of the Hetch Hetchy
supply.
The republican candidate is backed
by the public service corporations.
They want him to take care of their
investments and he will do as they tell
him to do"
Doctor Leland pledged himself to the
motto, Efficiency, not politics." He
promised continuation of the policies
of the present administration.
Heney was given an ovation. He re-
ferred to the attacks made upon him.
Il can not answer all these things. {"
he said. Il can not Stop to answer
when they put forth a pamphlet signed
by two women in defense of Haas.

Severely Arraigned at Mis-
sion Rink Meeting

when any man makes such a state

miserable po1troon that he is! Candi-
date of dollar! Candidate of Calhoun
and the corporations. He wants an
Office so badly that he has sold his soul
for it. His pockets are bulging with
the rotten, stolen money of Patrick CAL
houn. I'd hate to undertake the pur-
chase of the man with postage
stamp"
This. and a good deal more, were
hurled at Charles NJ Fickert last night
by Hiram w. Johnson, speaking at the
Mission rink in behalf of the candi-
dacy of Francis j. Heney for district
Fickert's charge that Johnson had rep
resented ]. Dalzell Brown as attorney
in order to secure the bank wrecker an
easy sentence, and that it was because
Johnson was a member of the prosecu-
ton that light sentence was secured.
The Mission rink meeting was the
climax of three big Heney meetings
last night that were limited in attend
ance only by the capacity of the halls
in which they were held 1t was there
that the china xoccurred, because 1t
was there that the gloves came off and
Heney's battle was fought with bare
hands, and there that enthusiasm
reached its highest pitch. There were
several in the crowd who wanted to
know things" They shouted their
questions. and the answers were given
with a vim. Fickert was arraigned by
half dozen speakers in the roundest
terms.
A question shouted at District At
torney Langdon concerning the SEN
tence givenA j. Dalzell Brown called
from the speaker an explanation that
brought the audience to its feet cheer
ing Then Johnson took the rostrum
and denounced as a lie the charge that
he had ever approached F'ickert with
the suggestion that the latter appoint
Heney assistant district attorney, or
that he had ever talked to Ffckert on
a political subject. He asserted that
Fickert was Patrick Calhoun's per-
sonal candidate for district attorney,
that his campaign expenses were paid
with Calhouns money and that it was
the most damnable outrage ever per-
petrated to put his name on the
union labor ticket and expect union
labor men to give him their suffrage"
other speakers at the Mission rink
meeting were w. G. Shelton, former

MUSICAL CLUBS TO
ARRANGE BIGSHOW
Committee Resigns After Differ
ence Over Celebration for
Football Meeting
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call


STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Oct. 26.-
controversy has arisen between the
recently appointed football show COM
mittee and the executive committee of
the associated student body. The show
committee was rearranged because of
the inability of .. w. Burbank to act
as chairman owing to the pressure of
other work. The newly organized
committees secured the services of the
combined musical clubs, but the ex-
ecutive committee of the combined
clubs would not ratify the arrange
ment, but appealed to the students ex-
ecutiye committee for control of the
football show without the knowledge
of the show committee. The execu-
tive committee passed a resolution
giving the entire control to the musi-
cal clubs and the show committee
composed of f. w. McNulty, L. II.
Cochran, S. A. Lindauer and w. P.
Fuller, chairman, has resigned and
stated its grievance in communica-
tion to the Daily Palo Alto.
Despite the trouble the students
will be given an excellent show the
night of the big game, as the glee and
mandolin clubs and the university or
chestra and band will participate in
the performance. Several stunts will
also be given by the Stanford gymna-
SUM club. Instructor H. w. Maloney
will give an exhibition of trick bag

'HfNfY DfMAGOGUF,
DECLARES fICKERT
Says That the Prosecutor Has
Gratuitously Insulted 10000
Voters

Charles NJ Fickert was enveloped in
Clement hall, Richmond district, last
night. He was preceded by William
Heron, Stanford Carnot medalist. and
followed by the University of Cali
fornia quartet. while James F. Lana
gan. with whom he coached the STAN
ford football team in past years, was
vice president of the meeting.
Heron declared the present admins
tration was the worst in the city's
history, and attacked Mayor TayIor's
poetry and Heneys methods.
Fickert described his campaign as
"the fight of deliberate judgment
against fanaticism.'
Il appear before you as candidate,
he said, because 1 know I can accom-
plish more in the cause OF justice than
the present administration. was
nominated on two tickets by a vote of
10000 against 1000 cast for Heney.
And when Heney says Patrick Calhoun
or any one else put me up he insults
every one of the 90 .000. My opponent
Is one of the biggest demagogues in
the history of this country"
Fickert said at the time he was first
mentioned he was highly spoken of per-
sonally by Hiram Johnson and others
fof the graft prosecutions who are now
denouncing him. The fees received by
Heney from the government and pri-
vate sources were then totaled to show
that Heney had been highly paid for
his services. johnson was especially
attacked, with more than playful al
fusion to his first name as Hire Him.
Fickert maintained that Heney had
accomplished nothing in the last three
years for the betterment of the city.
but had been animated only by a desire
to carry out private vengeance contrary
TO the prosecutions cry of Equality
before the law"
IF 1 am elected" Fickert declared.
"as I surely will be. I will establish
true equality Of the law. I will throw
out the gumshoemen now on the city's
payroll and prosecute all. whether
worth millions or not cent. I will
give a square deal to all
One of his grievances against the
Burns men was that they had been
employed since June 1 in trying to
find things that would reflect on his
personal reputation. AS to the prose-
cution of grafters. he promised to ex-
anime the evidence against them before
going ahead and spoke of Heney hav-
ing the indictments dismissed against
Umbsen, Brobeck and Green in the
Parkside case as evidence that inno-
cent higher ups had been unjustly in
dicted.
The same ideas were presented by
Fickert during the evening in Sunset
Academy hall and in the Auditorium,
where the largest crowd was gathered,
and in the Potrero opera house.
