personality of a candidate, is involved.
The battle is too great for quibbling.
We do not ask about the personality,
or the military ambitions, of the SOL
diers on the firing line. We ask only
as to the strength of the army. "Will
they win the battle?'
TWO PUSH DEMOCRATS
On the other side, opposing the good
government candidates of the Lincoln
Roosevelt league, are the candidates
brought out by the machine" the so
called regular Republicans" repre-
senting the Southern Pacific push. Will
you vote for them? Think for mo-
ment before you decide. Ask your
self your duty. Remember the issues
that are at stake. Don't scratch the
ticket. If you are an honest Demo-
crat vote only for Democratic candi-
dates. Vote only for the candidates
Endorsed at the Long Beach conference.
There are two contests on in the
Democratic primaries. The Southern
Pacific push has placed two men on
the Democratic ticket whom every
good Democrat should oppose. Their
records have been repeatedly exposed
by The Herald. These men are Henry
Mcdonald, so-called Democratic can
didate for the state senate from the
Thirty-eighth senatorial distric.. VOTE
AGAINST HIM by voting FOR Mar
tin Bekins, the Democratic candidate
Endorsed at the Long Beach confer
ence.
The other discredited Democrat who
represents the push is Enoch Hid
den, candidate for supervisor from
the Third supervisorial district. VOTE
AGAINST HIM by voting FOR j. L.
Mansfield.
DO NOT WRITE IN THE NAME
OF ANY REPUBLICAN ON THE
DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY BALLOT,
for If you do YOUR VOTE WILL BE
LOST. A vote for a Republican can
didate on a Democratic primary bal
lot IS A VOTE FOR HIS DEMO
CRATIC NOMINATION and will not
count for Republican candidate eX-
cept as a Democratic vote. 1t does
not add to his Republican votes.
There is only ONE Republican for
whom a Democrat should vote at the
election today, and that Republican Is
A. B. Nye, state controller. whose
honesty and efficiency caused the DEM
ocrats of California to leave blank
on the Democratic ticket as a mark
of respect and appreciation, so the
Democratic voters may write IN his
name and he may receive both the
Democratic and Republican nomina-
tions. State Controller Nye is the only
incumbent whom the Democrats nave
so honored and the only incumbent
they desire to see reelected.

Statement of Charles S. DERRICK,

"Our candidate will win by a plur-
atty of $4,000 votes. l believe this to
be a conservative estimate. If we ex-
coed it will not be surprised; if we

concede $4,000 votes to Mr.. Curry, 49,

Stanton and 10000 to Mr.. Ellery. These
estimates are based on a total of 225,-

tration of Republican voters"

I'm a telegram to me Mr.. Ellery
claims that he will be elected over
his opponents by a plurality of 1000.

$500 plurality. Mr.. Ellery does not pc
lieve the vote of San Francisco Will
do any candidate much good, as the
vote here will be widely scattered. The
interior vote will elect Ellery."
Statement of Thomas Keogh, cam
palgn manager for Charles F. Curry:
CURRY CLAIMS SAN FRANCISCO
sour Candidate will reach the Teha-
chapi with a majority of 10000. He
will come up from the south Win d
plurality. If the vote comes out in
San Francisco we will carry this city
by a majority of 10000 votes. With
others who have been working in be-
half of Mr.. Curry 1 am satisfied that
the above estimates are conservative"
Statement by F. w. Bilger, cam
paign manager for Alden Anderson:
1--WE who have looked after the ar
fairs of Mr.. Andersons campaign at
his headquarters feel absolutely GER
tain that he will be nominated. Mr..
Anderson's declaration that he intend
ed to follow the spirit and intent of
the primary law and his insistence
that this declaration be lived up to
has precluded us from making cam
paign involving the expenditure of
large amount of money. The good re-
ports constantly brought in to us by
visitors and written to us by cores
pondents all tell but one story, namely,
that Mr.. Anderson is certain to be
chosen as the candidate of his party
in the primary election.
sit is my honest judgment that when
the votes are counted he will be found
to have received as many as all OF the
rest of his contenders nut together"

Democrats to write in Captain Fred
ericks' name for the Democratic NOM
ination. 1t is hardly necessary to call
attention to the fact that this is the
most pernicious politics possible. 1t is
safe to say, however, that the only
Democrats who write in the names of
Republicans on the Democratic ticket
today (other than the name of A. B.
Nye) will be machine Democrats
and their misinformed dupes.
Briefly summarized, the good govern
ment Republican voters are urged to
cast their vote today for the Lincoln
Roosevelt Republican ticket. Familiar
ize yourself with the list. Take the
ticket with you to the polls and vote
it STRAIGHT, then you will make no
mistake.
Good government Democrats are
urged to vote against Mcdonald and
Hidden and write in the following
names in the places designated on the
ballot:
For state controller, A. b. Nye.
For surveyor general, II. w. Nolan.
For railroad commissioner, W. @. Wall.
For state board of equalization, w. II.
workman.
For county surveyor, Felix Viole.
For county superintendent of schools, M.
r. PendletOn.

EVIDENCE WITHHELD
At GILMORE inquest
British Authorities Bottle Up Case
Until Return of Crippen
and the Girl

LONDON, Aug. 15.-Spectators who
Islington today, where the investiga-
ton Of the Crippen murder mystery
was continued, were disappointed.
They expected to hear of sensational
discoveries In connection with the re-
mains, supposed to be those of Belle
Gilmore, found in cellar of the Grip
pen residence in Hilldrop Crescent.
The physicians in charge of the case
were responsible for the disappoint-
ment, having decided to withhold the
scientific evidence regarding the nature
and identity of the remains until DR..
Crippen and Miss Leneve return and
have an opportunity to attend the
court If they SO desire.
In consequence of the death of Cor
oner Thomas a week ago, it was neces-
sary to make a fresh start in the in
quest proceedings now presided over by
the deputy coroner, DIR. Schroeder. The
remains supposed to be those of Belle
Gilmore were again viewed by the jury,
and the hearing opened with a brief
recital of the known facts by DR..
Schroeder, who intimated that the in
quiry was likely to be protracted one.
Solicitor Newton, who was retained by
friends of DR.. Crippen and whose serv-
ices were accepted by the latter by
cable, was in attendance. Solicitor ].
H. Watts represented Miss Leneve.
Some of the more formal evidence
given at the first hearing was repeated
and new witness, Mrs. Belinda May
secretary of the Music Hall Ladies'
guild, of which Belle Gilmore was treas
urer took the stand. She testified that
at Christmas time Mrs. Crippen COM
planned that her sleep was disturbed by
a choking sensation as if she was going
to die She further stated that on Feb
ruary Miss Leneve brought to her a
pass book, check book and letter in
DR. Crippen's handwriting saying that
Belle Gilmore was going away for a
few months and asking that the guild
elect a new treasurer.
Superintendent Froest of Scotland
yard informed the court that he eX-
pected DR.. Crippen and Miss Leneve
to arrive in England in about three
weeks, after which the proceedings
were adjourned until September IL.

DR.. CRIPPEN MAY NOW BE
TAKEN BACK TO ENGLAND

QUEBEC, Aug. 15.-Dr. Crippen and
Miss Leneve may now be taken back
to England for trial on charge OF
murder awaiting them there as soon as
the order for their release comes from
the provincial authorities. Tonight
they completed the fifteen days under
arrest in Canada required by the
fugitive offenders act. Inspector Dew
said he did not know on what boat he
would sail, as his plans depend upon
the arrival of the order from Ottawa.
He is expected, however, to lose no
time in getting Crippen and Miss
Leneve to the other side.
Except for the automatic expiration
of the fifteen days limit the case today
was without legal features. Miss
Leneve spent the afternoon answering
the letter from her sister brought from
London by Sergeant Mitchell. Crippen,
1t was learffed today. has been per-
mitted to mail to his London attorney
a long letter relating to his case.

OFFICIALS LIVES
Mysterious Writer Demands That
Prosecution of Adolph Scho-
mex Be Dropped
tAssociated PressI


SAN DIEGO, Aug. 15.-Threatened
with death unless the prosecution Of
Adolph Schonek, accused of arson,
is dropped, the homes and offices OF
Superior Judge w. r. Guy, District
Attorney H. S. Utley, Chief Of Police
Keno Wilson and Detective Joseph
Myers, are being guarded night and
day, according to admissions made this
morning at the police station and
courthouse.
The lives of all four were threatened
by letters mailed at Los Angeles.
Santa Barbara, Sacramento and
Stockton the writer in each case
signing himself as either 'firebug" or
enemy of oppression" The hand
writing of each letter is the same,
apparently, and the first of the let
ters was received soon after the jury
in the trial of Schonek, who Is sus-
pected of setting about ten fires in
this city, disagreed and the district
attorney announced that he would be
tried again.
The postal authorities have been
notified of the sending of the letters
through the mails and the inyestiga-
ton is twofold. Every effort Is being
made to find out who the writer is,
but as far as known the clews are
slight
Coupled with the "firebug" letters,
which were a feature of the trial and
the arrival of a letter from Los An
geles during the trial generating the
defendant the mystery concerning tho
authorship of all the letters Is one OF
the most puzzling the police depart
ment has ever undertaken to fathom
The manner of death for. the four
officials threatened is by burning,
shooting and the use of high explo-
sives. The announcement of the latest
DEVELOPMENT in the Schonek case has
caused a sensation in San Diego that
rivals for interest the primary cleo
tion to be held tomorrow.

ON TREES IN PORTO RICO
Captain So States in Report to
lnSuIar Bureau

WASHINGTON. Aug. 15.-oysters
grow on trees in Porto Rico, fish that
never had the honor Of mention on ex-
pensive restaurant menus swim in the
waters of Porto Rico: fish Of hitherto
unknown varieties will eat out Of the
handlers hand in Porto Rico; fish OF
every kind and description are expect
ing to be caught in Porto Rico.
All the foregoing is described in
report to the bureau of insular affairs
from San Juan.
AS for oysters, Capt. John H. Kerr
of baltimore, who is in Porto Rico
looking over the fishing field, is au-
thority for the statement that they
grow on trees, and the report to the
bureau of insular affairs says:
"Oysters of good flavor are quite
plentiful on the south side of the is
land. They are usually attached to
the roots and lower branches OF the
mangrove trees at the shore"
In spite of all these conditions the
report shows that Porto Rico import
ed more than $654,000 worth of dried
fish last year and exported none.
