SAYS MCCARTHY
OPPOSED BONDS
Bell Declares Labor Candidate
Fought Islais Greek
Improvement

AT the democratic meeting inaPortola
Bell questioned P. H. McCarthy's sin
certify of purpose and declared that if
he was a true friend of labor he would
not have opposed the bond issue re-
Gently submitted to the people of San
Francisco. Bell reiterated that when
Assemblyman ONeil was asked to eX-
plain his reason for voting against the
Islais creek project at the last session
of the legislature ONeil said that he
acted on the advice of Mccarthy. 1t
was matter OF history, Bell said, that
Mccarthy denied O'Neil's assertion and
when the latter was told of the denial
he was struck with amazement. The
speaker maintained that as it was ap-
parent that one of the two was I'M
truthful, the voters were entitled to
know which.
Referring to Michael Casey's attack
on himself Bell reminded his hearers
that he was merely repeating some of
the assertions made by Casey two years
ago, when he was opposing Mccarthy
with relentless Vigor as an enemy of
San Francisco and the best interests
of organized labor
Last night meeting in the Mission
was the largest and most enthusiastic
that DR.. I. b. w. Leland and the other
democratic candidates have had south
of Market street.
The crowd was in good humor and
listened attentively TO speakers who
addressed the meeting before the ar
rival of the mayoralty candidate and
his party. Leland was given an en-
thusiastic reception and his speech
evoked frequent applause. He said:
The way TO test the sincerity of can
didates is not by promises, but by their
past performances. You are receiving
showers of promises from people who
controlled the city government during
a period when the city was disgraced
in the eyes of the world What did
you get then?
You will not obtain a public water
system from men who repudiated that
system when they had the power TO
give it to you. And when that awful
tale of disagreement was told to the
people of the city by the grand jury
did the men responsible for that mis-
government apologize to you2 No, they
called conventions not to denounce the
bride giVerS, but to denounce those VINO
told the truth about the citys shame.
Those responsible for the spoilation of
the city have again entered into COM
bination with the public service cor
porations. / speak of one of the tickets
opposed to me. You can not get the
Hetch Hetchy water system from cam
didates presented by the opponents of
that system. You can not get clean
government from unelean hands,"
The meeting was presided over by
Eustace Cullinan. Thomas J. Glynn,
candidate for county clerk: Lawrence
y. Dolan, candidate for sheriff; Jones ID.
Phelan, Jesse Bryan, Syrney Van Wyck,
tor Fitzgibbon and Edmund Godcheaux
also spoke.
