THREE PARTIES
BUCK MCCARTHY
REPUBLICANS, DEMOCRATS AND

UNITE AGAINST 'FRIS-

San Francisco, Cal. Sept. 23.-As
bitter a political campaign as was ever
witnessed in any American municipal
ity was practically ended In San Fran
cisco today. on Tuesday primary
election will be held for the selection
of candidates for mayor and other city
officers, including police judges, dist
rict attorney, sheriff, coroner and sup
crvisors.
Patrick NJ. Mccarthy, who was elect
cd mayor by the labor organizations
two years ago and under whose ad-
ministration. according to the declar-
ations of his opponents, the city has
been disgraced In the eyes of all de-
cent citizens, is the big issue of the
campaign. Every form of graft is
though the protection OF vice is the
charge upon which the foes of the Nc
Carthy regime place most emphasis.
Mccarthy to Lose Support.
Mayor Mccarthy is a candidate for
denomination and has the solid support
of the political machine which he has
built up since he came into Office. The
denizens OF the underworld, who are
said to have increased by hundreds
as result of the wide-open policy of
the past few months will, OF course,
do their utmost to aid In McCarthy's
re- election Ii Is not believed, how
ever, that he will poll as large a union
labor vote as he got at the last cleo
ton.
Three Parties Unite.
The Republican and Democratic and
Good Government parties have united
on James Rolph. Jr., for mayor. Mr..
Rolph Is well known business man,
free from entangling alliance with any
political ring. In announcing his plat
form, Mr.. Rolph said he would make
no hampering pledges, would make no
appointments for political reasons and
would recognize no faction in the COM
munity. He expresses himself in SYM
pathy with the labor organizations,
so long as they are law abiding, and
declares that If elected he will use the
whole moral influence of his office and
his utmost personal effort to show
both employer and employed that their
interests and the prosperity OF the
city depend on that justice to one an
other which alone insures industrial
peace.

in which he referred to the necessity
OF strengthening the German navy,
was mainly devoted to a eulogy OF
commerce. which he described as the
breadth of the national organism,
without which 1t would be but a life
less corpse. The Agrarians felt them

commerce, though nothing has been
said or insinuated in disparagement
of agriculture. and a campaign of
such vigor was started I'm the Agrarian
