Former Governor of California, in Bis b e e Yesterday,
 Points Out Objections
 10 Recall of Judges
UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE. TOO

Ex-Governor J. N. Giliett and parry left Bisbee yesterday afternoon at 2:25 o'clock, MT. Gillett, Mr. McCau- ley and Mir. Dixon returning to San Francisco and Mir. and Mrs. R. s. Stevenson and two sons returning to Chicago. The Gillett party has been on a visit of inspection to the prop erty of the Mascot Copper company, situated at Dos Cabezas and having two days to spare they are visiting the smelters at Douglas and the mines of this camp.
 The ex-governor of California was seen at the Copper Queen hotel just before the party left on a tour of the mines of the district. Hes old fash toned" is the initial thought on meet ing the ex-governor for the first time, and this impression is also the last impression, for he is 'old fashioned Not that the ex-governor is obsolete, but he hates an ism" in about the same degree as the feformer despises a tradition or as an iconoclast de- spises a custom.
 Condemns the Recall
 "Old fashioned" virtues are not be- ing worn in the Golden State just now, so the ~Guv'nor," as the members of bis party call him, is not in fine 8 "guv'nor," but in fact an ex-governor Being old fashioned it is natural that Mir. Gillett should oppose the recall of the judiciary, which is one of the bags of gold at the end of the rainbow now being sought by California, through an amendment to the state constitution.
 With the recall of the judiciary in force it will be impossible to get good judges to offer themselves for the sacrifice, and those good judges that we have will be constantly listening for the message of the wild waves of popular prejudice. I believe that the recall is thoroughly bad and my atti- tude is we'll known in California"
 Another question, 8 so-called ism that is agitating California at pres ent, is the question of woman's suff- rage. Having classified MT. Gillett as old fashioned it was a useless ques- ton to ask him where he stood.
 Against Woman Suffrage
 T am against womans suffrage, he said in answer to the question. T l nia. Those who faver woman's suff- rage take care to see that their views are given to the public, but I know hundreds of women, my friends. who do not believe in woman's suffrage, and l believe that this class composes the great silent majority of the women of our state"
 It was also useless or superfuous to ask this old fashioned" man for his reasons for opposing woman g suffrage
 T am against it because believe that the men of this country are ca pable of conducting the government without the aid of the women. It was intended tha woman's sphere of use fitness should be the home"
 Ex-Governor James Norris Gillett is tall. but he is well built. The com posite impression. however, is swarthy Ztheness, e, better perhaps, 1.-the swarthiness. He will be 51 years of age on the goth of September, and his hair is becoming gray, but this only adds instead of subtracting from the impression of physical and mental vigOr.
 In politics Mir. GiIlett is a repubH can. He is a personal friend of Theo ! dore Roosevelt and is also a friend ol i President Taft, who. the ex-governor says, will get a solid delegation from | California in the republican national 1 convention. Coming from a close per sonal friend of Roosevelt, who is look ed upon by some as an eager, listen 1 ing fiuciuOafus fhn sfaf6rnapt of nTr 1 Giliett is significant
 California for Taft
 Will MT. Taft get the republican nomination." he was asked.
 Well, l do not care to predict as tc that, but feel sure that he will have California's support" he replied.
