Daniel A- Rysn px*er had a chance of
holding ev«n an insignificant minority
of his party G*orgef A. Knight, : the
always at-tlie command of
H*rrin. wiped ovt the last vestige of it
last night. The man* whose la*t pre
ceding forensic the machine
\u25a0was the nomination of James \\ Glllett
for governor at Sant* Cruz tore away
th/» thin veil behind which the interests
In the Ryan campaign have attempted
to hide. When Knight had done the
Ryan campaign was shown in its true
colors — the campaign of the interests
whose first purpone Is to wipe out the
graft prosecution through. th# election
of Frank McGowan.
n-EiDS FOR CAI.HOtTV
In his real for the cause he repre
sented Knight fcrsrot the temper of the
great rank and file of the republican
party and entered an Impassioned plea
for Patrick Calhoun. He denounced the
m«>n behind the Kraft prosecution, ln
. Binuating that it had been, promoted to
*=erve the personal ends of James D.
Phelan. and Inveighed against the un
fairness with wUlch, he said, Calhoun
had been treated.
. "It Is not right, it Is not fair, it is
i j lot justice," cr'.ed Knight in tearful
tones, "that 20 confessed bribe takers
end perjurers should go free in order
\u25a0 to Rend Pat Calhoun to jail."
'That's where he belongs:" shrieked
the crowd. Its «;nthaslasm, worked up
by the characreristir flubdub that
Knight had bee.n purveying 1 for some
thing like an hour, went to ebbtide in
stantly. A small coterie of machine
< followers In one of the galleries, taking
; their cue from Knight, proposed three
1 cheers for SlcGowan and gave them.
i They were drowned in the hisses and
1 groans of .the crowd, which emerged
i from the spell of Knight's thunderous
i tones \u25a0when they- were turned to de
fense of Caihoun and against Langtion.
RVA7I JX SORRY PLIGHT
Ryan tried to throw oil on the
troubled waters by declaring that he
was proud to see the name of "William
,11. Langdon on hl» ticket, while mem
bers of the Hearst candidate's commit
tee dashed off to headquarters to pre
• pare a statement disclaiming responsi
bility for Knights strictures on the
graft prosecution, which they hotly
asserted were In violation of the agree
ment entered Into with Knight.
Whether there was or was not an
agreement, Knight pulled the throttle
I wide open and went past the danger
signals at a mile a m'nute for his
friend snd fellow servant of the ma
chine. , Frank McGowan.
Knight Hunched his address with a
statement that he did not purpose to
apologize for speaking for Ryan. He
referred to his 30 years of sera-Ice for
\u2666he republican machine as explanatory
bf his indisposition io make a wholly
I unnecessary apology.
Disposing of the apology, which ho
seamed to think the audience would
have expected from other than a vet
eran whose deeds an apology would not
hide. Knight made a characteristic
play for the laboring men's sj'mpathtes
and asked the republicans of San Fran
cisco to elect Ryan for Roosevelt's
rake. H* did not enter into a discus
sion of Roosevelt's attitude toward the
San Francisco alliance of Hearst and
the antl -Roosevelt republican machine,
nor did he mention the Parsons-Hearst
<T in New York which Roose
i ..t refuses to rc-r*>frnize. Then he got
•pwni to ' that ph*i>e* of the campaign
ln wiiioh hi and- the Interests behind
him c\*i interested. Ke. said:
-Th*y tell you Taylor ought to te
ei»-cti|! oa t.of«j=Tt of thevhelp he has
sive^ the graf- J.-r-iiecution. If I had
sf-f-.'*cox>is f-f-.'*cox>i I sh-'ild like to say some
thing to you aiK'Ut the graft prose-
f .'ution that you' would not forget,
something that you could write down,
take home and "put in your bureau
drawers." i
THROWS INniC-MEVr ASIDE •
A McGowan man in the gallery
shouted "Go ahead!" Knight thought*
h» . jjaw a VH^e light ahead. With
throttle .*ri\ie open he dashed past the
siding he had ngf eed to take. The
whittle lever "k's.« down and jammed '•
fast. He riled:
"Before there wa* this trolley busi
ness, a telephone scandal or a Parksidp
f^ase, the people of San Francisco had
made up their minds to rid themselves
of a boss who wotuld make Tweed look
like a deuce in any pack. The people j
were prepared to do this themselves.
a new light appeared on the hor
' zon. A young man with many mil
lions announced that he was going to
free San Francisco, and we all sang,
'Glory to God:' Phelan had said the
red flag stood not for anarchy but for
the auction stle. He had organized a
streetcar company, preparatory to go
ing to the auction. The sale was not
held.
'"Let us compare this graft prosecu
tion with what other district attorneys
have done. In New York Jake Sharp
and his boodling aldermen all went to
jail — every one of them. The district
attorney of New York did not turn his
office over to anybody. He prosecut
ed them himself. I tell you there arc
no "higher ups." A thief is a. thief.
A liar is a liar. But we are treated to
the spectacle of 18 self confessed bood
lrr* at large, when they are not In
court. \u25a0 I
"I don't care an eternal tinker's d — n
who ho is, r.o man has a right to drop j
$100,000 Into th» lap of any district at
torney. It isn't right. It isn't Am«r
iranlsm. It will not bear the light.
No millionaire has the right to take
any public official In the dead of the
night and promise what he has no
ngnt to give — immunity. Let Spreck
els and Phelan lead If they will, but
let them keep out of the paths that
only sworn officers of the law have the
right to tread.
"It isn't right that 20 self confessed
bribe taken-- and perjurers shall be set
free that Pat Calhoan may be put in
w ail."
n "That's whore he belongs," bellowed
4»e .crowd.
MTR DOWV MDDEM-V
Knight flushed, and paused as the
mine of Calhoun was received with
hisses and boos, but he had worked up
his fine frenzy and ihe mask was off.
Tiirre was nothing for him to do but
finish, which he did, lamely enough,
hy crying:
"If- Calhoun should die- tomorrow
JioU'b bells wuuld be knocked out of the
v. hole prosecution."
And thon he sht down, leaving Ryan
to square it a« best h<» might.
•v'ltycn strad<l!ed the situation, saying:
• "The*? .republican ticket' is a true
American ticket from topto bottom. The
nieri on it ur« *:lean. energetis. honest
citizens, who will serve th<! city and
IS- people as they <houtd be served.
Now I want to say that I am proud to ;

Proper Way to Mark Ticket for Good Government
If you, Mr. Citizen, would throw your support in favor of industrial^ peace, prosperity and a greater San Francisco, you can accomplish this
end by voting next Tuesday for Dr.^Edward Eobespn Taylor ' and^ the entir^ ticket which he heads. You can make no mistake if you vote either for
the entire good government league or the entire democratic ticket. If^ you vote inthe :good government league column stamp an X opposite the
name of every candidate in'-.the column and also stamp an X for William Broderick for supervisor in the democratic column, as the good govern
ment league ticket lacks one name of being complete. <
). This is the way your ballot; will be marked if you believe in the. principles of { civic decency and good government:

leader marched briskly; up the center
aisle he was roundly cheered and his
consistent smile broadened when he
mounted the platform and gazed upon
the sea of faces before him. -
LAUMKISTER, PRESIDES
Franklin P. Bull lost no time in pre
senting the chairman of the evening.
Charles A. Laumeister, president of the
merchants' exchange. Laumeister was
cheered by the few who recognized
him. Before lie introduced Knight the
chairman remarked:
"Ladies and Gentlemen: I was told by
my intimate friends not to preside here
this e\-ening for the reason that the re
publican papers — The Call and the
Chronicle — would roast me if I did. But
lam here. lam here to speak for Ry
an because I know that he is honest,
energetic and progressive and the kind
of a young man. we want as mayor of
our city."
On th« platform -were seated many
of the municipal candidates on the re
publican ticket. Most of them evi
dently came prepared to. say a few
words to the, crowd, but Edgar D.
Peixotto, candidate for city attorney,
was the only man allowed this sacred
privilege. .Tom Eagan, whbse Job was
usurped by Knight, simply looked on
and applauded when the others did.
RYA.V ADDRESSES CROWD
Before commencing his speech Ryan
apologized for his voice, saying that
the steady grind of the last three
weeks had all but worn it out. How
ever, he managed to make himself
heard very nicely as ! soon as he
warmed up. During his remarks Ryan
said:
! "They tcrfd you that yoji must elect
Taylor mayor in order to maintain your
credit in the east, but at the same
time they did not say a word about the
critical financial situation in New York.
Spreckcls, Phelan and the others knew
this, but they did not want you to
know it. Do not be uneasy about our.
little financial flutter. It amounts' to
nothing. It Is simply a. slight fore
runner ofwnat has come and will rome
to New ' York, London,-: Parlsi and. In
fact, all the large cities of the universe,
the result of the tightness* of the money
market throughout the world. Our lit

a few days and we will sail 'along just
as peacefully as" ever.

HISS DOWN M'GOWAN'S
ATTACK ON SPRECKELS
Meeting in Uproar When
Outrageous Charges
Are Uttered
Insinuations, that Rudolph Spreckels
donated $100,000 to- the district at
torney's .office to safeguard himself
from an . Investigation of alleged
charges made by refugees in regard
to the distributing of'the relief fund
made by Frank McGowan at a meat
ing last night at Paris and Persia
streets we're greeted with hisses. Mc-
Gowan had overshot his mark. The
meeting:, unusually; cold from, the out
set,-; received his . generic charges of
the millionaires wanting to control tho
city without emotion of any kind, but
whan he intimated : that Spreckels ; had
paid the money into the district at
torney's office to tie : the lattar's hands
there was an Instantaneous chorus of
disapproval at the lengths to which
the speaker was going. The Kisses
were so intense that McGowan's , voice
was drowned and Chairman Daly had
repeatedly to rap his table and cry
for order. ..
The abuse '-which has characterized
McCarthy meetings heretofore was
mild compared to the lengths to which
McGowah went last' night. Spreckels
was .not the only one to fall undeT the
whiplash of his tongue. He insinu

ated that Heney had no idea of con
victing Ford, giving as his reason that
his failure to put Abe Ruef on th«
stand showed this to be true.
- "And." he shouted, "who is this man
Tom Gibson, who Is the .chief of Cal
houn's-detective bureau? Who Is h«
but the brother in law , of Francis J.
Heney."
McCarthy spoke along the usual lines
at all of his meetings yesterday- H»
held two open air meetings at noon at
Seventh and Tovrr.3ep.cl and at Alabama
and Kansas streets, both of which were
fairly well attended, but there wm
little enthusiasm at either. He de
clared that if elected mayor ha would
Investigate several charges against
sotne officials among whom Chief Birsy
was Included.
He made a similar address at Paris
and Persia streets adding to hl« former
statements that ho would also call for
an Investigation of the alleged charges
against Rudolph Spreckels In regard
to : the relief fund distribution.

About 500 persons attended a Mc-
Carthy meeting at Union hall. Four
teenth and Church streets, where Mc-
Gowan repeated his Insinuations-re
garding the distribution of relief funds.
At this meeting the Insinuations w«r«
received in \u25a0 silence, as were also tb«
Insinuations against Hen«y -when Mc-
Gowan tried to, hint the latter was
working hand in glove with Calhoun.
because Tom Gibson wa<* chief of tha
United »- Railroads detective bureau.
The music at the meetings last ntght
was furnished by* the Pierce quintet
who sang songs In which Gavin McNab
Is made to rhyme with scab. McCarthy
was accorded a warra welcome at
Sunnyslde hall where ho also apoks
la*t night.
Odds on Taylor Are 2 to I
With Few Takers in Sight
Several Big Wagers Offered
Against His Opponents
There seems no limit to the confi
dence of the men who "want to wager
that Taylor, will defeat both McCarthy
and Ryan In the race for the mayoralty
next Tuesday. Their money seems as
Inexhaustible as their confidence, as
each day . they are offering a better
price that Taylor will beat both the
other candidates.
Many commissions of $1,000 each
were placed. yesterday, and the price,
which was 10 to 6 the day before, went
to 2 to 1. "While the Taylor men want
t# wager big money, the adherents. of
the other candidates usually want to
put up only 5.* to $10. There was an*
exception last night, when some un
known bettor put up $500 in gold that
McCarthy would beat Taylor.
, Langdon still remains a strong favor- |
Ite over McGowan, and Dolan also holds j
his own as favorite in the race- for th«
sheriff's office.
CONFIDENCE IS
FULLY MAINTAINED
Stores of Eilers Music Co-
mpany Resemble Christ-
mas Holidays . <
The volume of business transacted
by the Eilers stores on Van Ness ave-
nue and Fll^more street yesterday was
certainly proof of the fact that not-
withstanding the temporary scarcity of
money the mass of people have the
fullest confidence in the future and th»
speedy return of normal conditions.
In Both of these stores the business
approximated that of the holiday sea-
son. Piano sales were not only made to
residents In the different sections of
the city, the Mission, "Western Addition
and Sunset district, but, out of town,
purchasers as well showed their faith
by purchasing pianos in these stores.
While these facts show that San
Francisco people are not disturbed by
the temporary conditions of the monj?y
market they also are proof that they
are not overlooking the fact that this
is pre-eminently the time" to buy piano j
to the greatest advantage.
AND SUCH PIANOS '
Not an ordinary stock of instruments.
cheap in character, but ona of th» most
magnificent lines of pianos ever offered
to San Franciscans.
By thi3 time we had expected to b«
in our big Market street store, but it
will be months before we can have oc-
cupancy. The fine line of specially . se-
lected high grade pianoa ordered for
this opening arj? all included in this blr
piano sale. $62,000 represents their
lowest value in ordinary times and w*
are selling them for but a little ov*r
$41,000. Piano buyers make a saving of
fully one-third the price of any piano
or Autopiano thay may aalect.
MUST BE SOLD NOW '
This is not a time for enormous pro-
fits — it is time for selling at prlcts that ,
must compel people to buy. The prloes
wj» have established on pianos during
the present sale* of the stock ordered
for our new store are not falling to at-
tract every shrewd business man or
woman who needs a piano.
Think of it— s3ls., $343 or $38S bays
pianos that have always bean sold at \
$500. $550 and $600.
$218 gets you an instrument that we
believe will never be sold again for
less than $475. And $250 pianos can b«
bought for $164. and all other styles
an» . correspondingly reduced. These
are prices for cash, but easy monthly
payments can be secured by paymant
of simple Interest.
PIANOS BY MAIL 1
Ss^sW^BHmMssi
'Within the past week we have sent a '
large number of pianos to out of town
customers on mail orders. Two of thesa
have wired us expressing their hlg sat-
isfaction, witb the Instrument shipped
and several' others have .-written thank-
ing us for. the service rendered them~..,.
It is not a question of profits with us:'
it is simply a .question of getting rid
of this valuable stock of pianos so that
our risk In carrying tb^m may fte re-
duced.

or outside, carries with it the famous ;

money back If you are not satisfied. We I
