Don't let North beach believe I am the millionaires' candi date. Let South beach believe that, but not North beach." In conclusion the mayor said: "San Francisco calls to see that she Is re senerated morally as well as-physi cally, will you answer the call V ,_ In f, cs Ponse to the question cries of 'ies. came from all parts of the rail, and then as the mayor sat down the crowd gave him a tremendous cheer. WELCOME TO LA\GDO\ It was the same when District Attor- T ' € J Lan Sdon entered the hall as It was \u25a0when Mayor Taylor appeared. Cheers BJad applause greeted him. and the throng was so great that he. like the I mayor, had to be escorted through the crowd that choked the entrance and aisles by three patrolmen headed by i Policeman Rocca. The crowd waved hats, shouted itself hoarse- and then settled back to wait until Chairman Fontana called on the district attorney for an address. The district attorney's speech was as brief as It was pointed. He said he certain that an extended address from him was unnecessary. "we have been engaged." he said, •for 10 months In a struggle to bring to justice powerful and upscrupulous criminals. This work has been done In the face of tremendous odds. It re mains uncompleted. I ask you the sim ple questions: Do you wish it carried on to a successful conclusion? Do you \u25a0want to help us prove to the world that In San Francisco there is but one law for the innocent and the guilty alike?" "The issues are plain, and you will answer ray question, I am sure, not only to the citizenship of this city and i state, but to the whole nation, and you will answer rightly, to the end that purity and justice in our municipal life | shall be established." INTRODUCES WALTER 51 AC ARTHUR; Former Supervisor \u25a0M. J. Fontana opened the meeting and introduced the Fpeakers. He declared that he had en tered actively into the present campaign reluctantly and only because he felt that It was necessary for every citizen to work for the good of the city so that San Francisco might redeem itself In the eyes of the world by electing a nonpartlsan ticket from top to bottom. • Chairman Fontana first introduced Walter Macarthur, who addressed the meeting from the standpoint of a labor Jr.ader. He declared that the real traitors to union labor were to be found In those who would turn organ ised labor over, bound and gagged, to self-seeking manipulators of union Votes. "If It were an issue," he said, ."be tween capital and labor, you know •where you'd find me fighting. But the present Is & struggle to rehabilitate San Francisco, morally as well as phys ically, and In this rehabilitation labor is as greatly interested as capital. If you want to see your city rebuilt In: a generation through the restoration of confidence at home and abroad you will vote the ticket that stands for good government." Percy V. Long followed with a clear statement" of the financial interests > in volved In the present "campaign and told how vast sums of money had been squandered by the previous board •of supervisors uselessly and criminally. This he contrasted with the«present economical and wise prosecution of the city's business and asked which his hearers preferred. P. C Rossi, president of the Italian Swiss colony, made a deep impression by his personal appeal to his fellow countrymen to vote the good govern ment ticket. APPEALS TO UXIOX MEX . . J. W. Sweeney, president of the iron trades council,* proved to his hearers that the real interests of organized r| labor rested with the parties opposed 'to the present leaders of the labor union party, who, he declared* were a menace to unionism. He appealed to the voters of the north end to stand by the present graft prosecution so that when the present assistant district at torney, Heney, should complete his tabors here under Langdon he would be encouraged to go to Los Angeles end send that "arch criminal and enemy of labor, Harrison Gray Otis, to jail." Ralph McLeran made a convincing attack on P. H. McCarthy, who had, he said, fought against the, Interests of various unions — painters, plumbers, electricians and millmen — simply to further his own political schemes. He declared that the members of these or ganizations would vote to a man against McCarthy. Judge Cabaniss and Judge Wcller made short addresses in behalf of their i candidacy for the police bench and were well received. Dr. T. V. W. Le land, for coroner; Lawrence Dolan, for sheriff; Dr. A. H. Glannini, James A. Johnson, for supervisor, and Ml J. Hynes, candidate for public adminis trator, spoke earnestly and effectively for the party and principles which they asked the voters to establish in power in this city. LAA'GDOJT TALKS TO TOILERS More than 300 workmen who toil In the vicinity of the foot of Sansome 6treet gathered at that place shortly after noon yesterday and cheered them selves hoarse for Langdon and other candidates on the democratic and good povernment league ticket. The fighting district attorney made another ( of those fiery, vehement speeches In which he flayed the rich criminals who corrupt " ed city officials. That his words took fieep root In the minds of his listeners tras attested by the rounds of cheers that interrupted the speaker at short Intervals. The meeting was opened by Ralph McLeran, the union leader, who is running for supervisor on the good government ticket. McLeran showed his working card from the building trades council and then paid his re spects to McCarthy. He referred to the manner In which McCarthy had dis rupted the electricians', painters', plucibers' and bricklayers' unions. LCJigdon came next, smilingly salut ing the cheering crowd. Once again he told the voters that he was out to fight Calhoun and the other indicted kings of finance to the bitter finish. He told how Schmitz was sent .l to jail and how Influence was brought to bear on the prosecution at that time to drop the cases. "But we answered that so long as Bchmltz was sent to 'jail we -Intended to 6end the men wno corrupted him there, too," thundered Langdon. The speaker, referred- to the immuni ty cry that was being raised- by his opponent and again explained how in t bribery case It "was necessary to make | a compact' with one of the parties to the crime Jn order that the legal;evl flence could be obtained. \ Langdon tnade a great hit with the crowd when he announced that the. prosecution had b. chance to send either poor old Tom ; \u25a0 rxmergan or Pat Calhoun to jail .- and It decided that Calhoun was the man whom the striped suit would better be come. •y?e keej> RueXiaa. private Jail »o that he cannot- be reached -or tampered! with," concluded L»angdon- , "Our ene- ; mics are moving heaven \u25a0 and earth to Intimidate our witnesses or else spirit them outside the \u25a0 jurisdiction of the courts. !We know where . Ruef Is and we know that we will have: him when we are ready to put him on the' witness stand- to testify against the menVwho prostituted and corrupted our fair city in her hour of need." . . .. '\u25a0' William P. McCa be, candidate for county clerk,- followed Langdon," and in a few words told the crowd of his fights In labor circles for, good gov ernment. He promised them a -fair, ad ministration of the office and urge* them to vote. the ticket straight from Taylor to the bottom. Police Judge Wellcr was well received and made a hit- with a bright, snappy speech. " AT THE FERRY BUILDING At their own request Langdon. visited the baggagemen. expressmen, and freight .handlers -in the- ferry building at 11 o'clock yesterday "morning.. : The district attorney met' about .200 of the workers personally and discuesed i the political situation, man' to, man. Hfs visit was -a great event' among, the tcilers. They flocked "around the fear less prosecutor, shook, him \u25a0'\u25a0'. by the hand and assured him that they would not only vote for him but would make his' fight among their friends until election day. . . . ' ' , : The i gathering . was strictly an in formal one, but probably did more 'for Langdon's cause- than many. 'an affair that had been billed a week ahead. When "pressed for a speech Langdon told of the vast task the prosecution had undertaken and how it intended to carry it out if. given the opportunity. ; "We,, arc after the big fellows, boys," said Langdon. "and we are going to send them to jail of you help us. It' is up to you. If you give us your votes, we will go, ahead. If you elect my oppo nent. _the prosecution of these graft cases will be dropped -and the kings of finance who have debauched your pub lic servants will go free instead of to jail where they belong."
