Roughs -Attempt to Stampede Taylor Meeting and Are Promptly
trnlon men, selected as vice presidents,
occupied seats on the stage: E. D. Mar
lltt. Kenneth McL.eod. James W. Kidd,
T. E. Zant and O. M. V. Robert "of car
penters' union Xo. 453: E. W. Hutchln
son. Frank H. Crawford. J.: E. Skelley,
J. E. Griffith and J. D. Fogarty of car
penters' union Ko. 10S2, and E. D.
Brandon of the brick layers' union.
Mayor Taylor did not arrive until
after the meeting had been in progress
for more than an hour. An' enthusiastic
cheer greeted him as he climbed upon
Ihe stage. The disturbers hooted, and
their answer was a storm of cheers
that drowned all noise 'of dissent.
Mayor Taylor said:
"My friends, it seems Indeed that San
Francisco has many earnest friends
left. I am not here for ms'self. I
Ftand before you not as an Individual,
but as an Issue. That issue is good
firovernrm-nt first, last and all the time.
Shall our city retrograde or 'advance?
Shall the guilty be punished or fro
free? Shall our city be regenerated
both physically and morally? We have
had bad government, the worst that
any city eveY had. Now we have good
government. »We have government
un4er whirh no man is held up; a gov
ernment which protects every man In
his business, whether it be selling dry
goods or liquor, so long as he obeys
the law.
" "Shall we continue the administra
tion which has engendered confidence
here and In the east, or shall we go
back to the old kind of government?
You do not know what new men would
do. You know what the present ad
ministration will do. It is preparing to
build school houses, it is repairing the
streets, doing more street work than
was ever in progress in San Francisco
before. The present government treats
every one fairly. A man who gets a
Tcense does not have to pay for more]
tfian his license. He doern't have to j
employ an attorney close to the admin
istration. He does not have to pay any
one a fee. This is an administration
that stands for honesty in everything."
Mayor Taylor at this juncture was
interrupted by cheers of approval. Re
suming his speech he spoke of the
charge that he was the millionaire's
candidate and declared it nonsensical.
He judged a man, not by his wealth I
ii\it by his worth. "If we could all j
rome together as brothers," he said,
"then, indeed, would Industrial strife j
be at art end." \u25a0
In conclusion Mayor Taylor said: "I j
have answered the call of the city.
Its affairs have prospered v under my t
administration. Shall good govern- !
rnent be continued? It is -for you to !
f.nswcr the city's call. Will you march i
in phalanx to the polls and put to
flight all the enemies of our beloved
city?"
The crowd gave the mayor another
big cheer as h«^ concluded, and the dis
turbers who had not been removed by
the police sat crestfallen, for it was
jllain that the throng was enthtlsiastic '
for- the cause of good government. j
\u25a0 District Attorney I^ngdon. like the j
mayor, was greeted with hearty cheers.
When he began his speech the crowd
voiced its approbation with loud ap
plause. Langdon was Introduced as
the "man who will put Patrick Cal
ho:in in prison."
The address of the district attorney
•was a caustic and incisive analysis by
Illustration of the argument of his
opponent, McGowan. In part Langdon
Eaid:
'\u25a0-.. "As it is late. I am going directly
to the issue which concerns the district :
attorney's office. I will resort to no i
personal abuse, but 1 will seek to un- i
mask the shadows, shams and hollow
mockery of my opponent when he says
that if he Is elected. Jie will abagfAcU I
the plans followed with greater or- less
success X>y the incumbent and send both
tlalhoun and all the members of the
old board of supervisors to the peniten
tiary. I will demonstrate that he means
to let Oalhoun and all of his allies go
free. If I can not demonstrate that I
don't want your vote.
"This is what would happen If he"
would not grant immunity to the su
pervisors to turn state's evidence:
| "Calhoun would be brought Into
court. The district attorney would call
tiie first witness. Mr. Jxmergan. Lon
trgan would take the stand.
\ " 'Mr. Lonergaru' the district attorney
R-,ould say, 'did Patrick Calhoun 'bribe
you?* "r—""'
: "Lonergan would say. 'I refuse to an
swer on the ground that I would in
criminate myself.'
"Tiie district attorney would appeal
to the court. The judge would reply.
'I f*an not make any man testify against
himself.'
"Then the dlstrirt attorney would j
call ex-Pupervisor Mamlock. Mamlock
\u25a0would refuse to testify on the ground
that he would incriminate himself, by
6o doing. Jhe court could- not foro*
him to-»testlfy. All the supervisors j
would b.^ called to,the stand and each
One would refuse' to testify. Then the
court would have tft Instruct the jury:
"Since the district attorney cSn present
no evidence against the defendant you
must acquit him.'
ft "And Calhoun goes free."
"Langdon drove hia point home. He
concluded his address "with a -review
tot local conditions li\ graft and politics.
Chairman w. H. Hutchlnson had no
sooner been introduced than the Mc-
Carthy craps shooters started their
rough house. The speaker said:
"He who 6houts last shouts best.
I trust that those among us will have
enough respect to conduct themselves
in a decent manner."
"What's the matter with McCarthy?"
yelled a. disguised voice from th« rear.
"Nothing's the matter with him,".re
plied Hutchinson. "if he were here
himself he would not open his mouth,
but he sends his henchmen here to do
his bidding."
E. D. Brandon, of the brick layers'
union was the next speaker. In open
ing Brandon reviewed briefly- his own
labor record, saying that he had been
an officer in the brick layers* union ever
since he joined 15 years ago. He de
clared that the issue of this campaign
was graft or antlgraft and that the
reason he could not support the "stand
ard bearer of the union labor party"
had been brought* about by the atti
tude of that candidate. He charged
McCarthy personally with<bein*g re
sponsible in a great measure for the
conditions which confronted union la
bor In 1901.' -He was the only union
labor man In the cabinet of the then
mayor." cried the speaker.
Brandon accused McCarthy of being
Instrumental ,in introducing resolu
tions before the building trades coun
cil a year ago commending- the bood
ling board of supervisors for. removing
Langdon from office and appointing
Ruef the district attorney.
At this point the McCarthy cohorts
became enthusiastic again until the po
lice dampened their ardor.
Brandon then reviewed the ' condi
tions which existed after the conviction
of Schmitz. when Langdon appealed to
the unions and to other, organizations
, to form a committee to name the mayor.
"Then the labor unions could have
j named a mayor or could have prevented
the appointment of • a man-notaccept
\ able to them," the speaker argued ably.

MA¥OR TAYLOR and bistr|cgAtt^rney|W ,

Dreamland rink in Steiner street, between Post and-'Sutter. , The commit
tees in charge' of the meeting, thanks to their experience at the;Tatificktion ; ,meeting'
when the big rink proved wholly inadequate to the .\u25a0accommodation :of the ivimmense'i'
throng, have made ample preparations forvan overflow meetin^iirHamilt^nTsquare, :
adjoining the rink. Fully s,ooo .persons,wereTunaW^, were TunaW^ rinK;
when the campaign was opened by Mayor Taylor and' District^ Attorney Langdon,
and the management is anticipating! a much larger overflow tonight. . ' «.-•-•:/'
Dreamland will accommodate about 9,000 persons/: 'A^ corps V6l 150
ushers will be in charge of the seating of ;the big crowd, ...-and; special /reseryatjonsj;
will be made for ladies and their escorts. The doors will be Opened* at .-Z:3p^and
those who go early will get seats. For those not fortunate 'enough- to^securer seats'- '\u25a0
or standing room in the rink, Hamilton square affords^ample^raolTi^ fon^n7;over
flow meeting. Both Mayor Taylor- and District Attorney XLahgdon-Ayill speak at
the overflow meeting, so that every one will have^ an opportuniry'Jto; :he'ar the -can
didates who stand for good government. ; ' ;.;; . -
The rink meeting will be presided over by Dr. Wilson \u25a0 Shield Besides Mayor •
Taylor and District Attorney Langdon, William P. McCabe, H.Weinstock, Jessie
Bryan,. E. L. Cutten, Paul Bancroft and several other candidates on the good govern
ment ticket will speak. Arrangements have' been completed; for a special. musical
("but they would not take any action."
j He closed with a laudation of Taylor
and the Taylor administration.
T. E. Zant, organizer of the state
[federation of labor, made a vigorous
\ speech In which he declared that the
i union labor party was captured by the
I politicians before It was two years old
'and had been; run In their Interest ever
j since. "The. corporations are behind
j the so called union labor ticket in this
campaign;" he said. "They ..have raised
a fund of SIOp.OOO and expect by fooling
the worklngmen into voting that ticket
to save bribe givers from- punishment.
Giving that sum Is cheaper than paying
$200,000 for high- priced-: lawyers and
detectives." Zant said ;that the Gltl
["zens" alliance was no longer a factor,
I that It hardly had enough members left
! to run its local office, and that the cry ,
I of the McCarthyites was .only part of i
the corporation plot to capture thecon-*
trol of. the city government. *
Walter, Macarthur scored the disturb
ers who had been cheering for Mc-
Carthy. /."Such, intolerance," he said,
"illustrates the temper and character of
the men who. pretend 'to represent the
building trades. :• The real representa
tives of the building trades will ex
press their sentiment on election day
b*y voting for the good government
ticket."-* f .
Macarthur praised the men who got
iup the meeting. "They knew attempt
would be made to pack It, but they
were determined to,, hold .It If ' only to
j show that the hoodlum and hobo who
I poses as a. union man; by .virtue of a
union- card and a^ button -Is not the
whole "'v shooting",'; match!'" vifacarthur
