COMMITTEE TO
NAME MAN FOR
MAYOR'S CHAIR
Rolla V. Watt Lays Duty of
Canvassing Field Upon Muni«
cipal League Republicans
James Rolph Jr. and Marshall
Hale Not Yet Eliminated
From Consideration
GEORGE VAN SMITH
George E. Crothers. Hiram W. John
c<>n. Samuel H. Boardmen, John W.
Sweeney, William M. Symon, Byron
Uauzy. Andrea Sbarboro, Max .1. Kuhl,
John H. MoCallum. These are the men
on whom Chairman Holla. V. Watt has
laid the duty of canvassing the field
. for a candidate for mayor for • the
municipal league of independent repub
lican clubs.
The special committee on mayor will
hold its first meeting this morning at
the Mills building and perfect its plan
of procedure. The makeup of the
committee is Infinitely more fortunate
than the situation that it is called upon
to deal with, and tends to mak« good
, th* promise that its efforts will be
directed toward harmonizing the war
ring elements in the republican party
and in bringing out a candidate who
can be elected mayor of San Francisco.
DEMAND FOR ROLPH Oil HALE
It may be definitely stated that the
members of the special committee have
not abandoned hope of meeting the
popular demand for James Rolph Jr. or
Marshall Hale. George E. Crothers,
speaking for the committee, says, how
ever, that it will be glad to receive
suggestions from any and all citizens
touching the availability of other men
who might be induced to make the race.
It has been borne in upon the mem
bers of the league's conference that
they have to face an unusual situation.
The public eye ha? been filled with
Hale and Rolph for more than six
months. The substitute for them must
measure up to the proportions of the
public's expectations or the i«?publiean
party must inevitably suffer the penal
ties of public relaxation and revulsion.
RBQXniEMIiNTS OF PUBLIC
Anfl that by no means infers that an
other person equally the good citizen
that Rolph and Hale are would meet
that popular requirement. He must pos
**-ss in substantially the same decree
those peculiarly personal qualifications
that have made Rolph and Hale the un
willing candidates of the great major
ity of the people of San Francisco with
out regard to their partisan affiliations.
\u25a0 I have assurances that rray be con
sidered more than reasonably definite
that Jf Jem^s Rolph Jr. could be in
duced to enter the race for mayor
the regular democratic organization,
otherwise the MrXab wing of the party,
would fall In line. That attitude is, of
course, based largely on an apprecia
tion of the futility of opposing 1 his elec
tion.
STILL LOOKING TO ROLPH
In any event it is assured that the
mayoralty committee representing the j
municipal league of republican clubs Is
not prepared to accept Ralph's declina
tion as final and hopes that it can be
demonstrated to him and his business
associates that he« is responsible for
the success of his party, which carries
with it the essenc&-^of the political
maxim that "no man is bigger than his
party."
Watt is to be congratulated on his
committee selections.' It is pot a com
m:Tte»; to arouse the suspicions of either
the radical reformer or the extreme
"short hair." and so far as might be
from the membership of the conference
and tiii limitations of its own propor
tions H is also \splendidly representa
tive of the city from a geographical
DISTRICT*: REPRESENTED
The distribution by assembly districts
is as follows: Crothers, forty-first;
Johnson, forty-fifth; Bcardman" for
tieth;' Sweeney, thirty-fourth; Symon,
ihJrty-flfrt; Mauzy, thirty-eighth; Sbar
boro, thirty-ninth: Kuhl, thirty-seventh;
HcCallum, thirty-fifth.
The machine wing of the republican
party is indulging itself in broad grins
of satisfaction over the failure of the
league and the anti-machine wing of
the county committee to get either
Rolph or Hale into the race. The ma
chine men admit freely that* either
means the solution of the republicans'
problems, and that with either in the
field the decision of the supreme count
:n the direct primary law case would
not help them out, while so long as
Hale and Rolph are out of it they con
sider that they -are the inactive masters
of the situation.
DEMOCRAT> -IN THE Alß*'
The regular democratic organization
is "in- the air." too. Pending the deci
sion 3n the primary law contest it will
take no action beyond insuring the
completion of the petitions for Pub
lic Administrator. Hynes and Sheriff
I»olan, the former of which is com
plete. If the direct primary election
law is knocked out by the suprem*
court regular democracy will get busy,
?nd it is a 10 to 1 bet that its first
Inactivities will be along the routes that
to a fusion gate into the inde
pendent republican pastures. if the
\u25a0direct primary law is sustained and
with it the ruling of me election com
mission touching plural nominations,
regular democracy will be found trav
eling the same road.
CANDIDATE FOR SHERIFF
Mark Noon, «n assistant bond and
warrant clerk, is the latest addition
tr» the ranks of the republican candi
dates for sheriff.
Tom Finn's shrievalty ambitions
look a skyward leap yesterday when
Kid Sullivan, ."king of the pickpock
ets," formally espoused the cause of
the senator from/the seventeenth dis
trict. Sullivan lias an important and
perfectly deliverable vote In his pocket.
He was the dispenser of pocket picking
privileges d uring the regime of Jerry
I'inan. and in charge of Dinan's pretty
little .scheme to "tear up the town" to
eneompasa the defeat of Mayor Taylor
and the election of P. H. McCarthy two
years ago.
The "Kid" has a peculiar interest in
the qualifications of peace officers in
San Francisco. His business life is in
volt'ed. and It may safely be assumed
that ne knew what he was about when
he decided to throw his influence into
the balance for Finn.

GENERAL "JIM" SMITH'S SMILE IS HERE
Governor General James F. Smith and Mrs.
Smith, as they appeared upon their arrival yesterday.
Also several of. "Jim" Smith's smiles.
FAVORITE SON
OF CITY HERE
Philippine Governor Is Greeted by
Host of Friends — Marvels
at the Rebuilding
James Francis Smith, governor general of the Philippine
islands, war colonel of the First California regiment, stood
up in his automobile time after time as he was being
escorted from the ferry to the Fairmont hotel .yesterday
morning. Genial "Jim" Smith of the old San Francisco was
drinking in the sights of the new San Francisco with all the
avidity "of a ''small boy turned loose in a circus. The native
San Franciscan, accompanied by Mrs. Smith, had just arrived
from Manila, having come from Seattle by train. He was
last here on a visit at the time of the fire and the quake
and he marvrled at the wonderful transformation that had
caused the ruins of the old San Francisco to give way in
three years to endless rows of skyscrapers. It was a glad
sight fof him, and he freely voiced his keen appreciation
of it.
The governor general lost no time in telling his inter
viewers that thereswas not the least unpleasantness exist
ing between President Taft and himself. He gave as his
reason for asking to be relieved of his post, which carries
with it a salary of 520,000 a year, that he is desirous of
re-establishing his home life. lie has been in the islands
11 years, his son Cyril has been attending Santa Clara college-
and Mrs. Smith has been back and'
forth between California and Manila,
He plans to retire from public life and
build up a law business in this city
unless he should be fortunate enough
to secure a permanent judjreship. In
bis usual frank way he admits that
the republicans have dealt very kindly
with him, a democrat, and that he has
no claim on the administration for any
further appointment. .
WOULD EEFUSE NOMINATION
As for accepting the democratic
nomination for mayor General Smith
reiterated the refusal which he made
in Seattle when the matter was first
broached to him.
"I've been in public life 11 years
and I'm trying to get out of it," said
he. "The only thing I should consider
•would be a permanent judgeship."
Many of the members of the com- !
mittee of 25 appointed by Mayor Tay
lor to arrange for the reception of
Governor General Smith journeyed to j
the Oakland mole to greet the distin
guished San Franciscan as he stepped
! from the train. In the party was Major
H. D. Slme. who had fought with
Smith in the Philippines when Smith
was colonel of the First California
regiment, . The personnel of the com
mittee of 25 Is as follows:
Joseph S. Tobln James McXab
Jeremiah F. SulliTan James Rolph Jr. *
He-nry Eichoff James I). Whaleh
Major H. D. Sime A. P. Gianninl .
Uer. Father Joseph Me- J. J. Dwyer
</ttai<le !E. S. Heller
T. I. O'Brien General Woodruff
Joseph E. O'Ponnell General John A. Koster
George A. Stanley W. H. T/eahj-
Frank J. Kieree jPr. T. If. Morris
James I>. PheUn Charles J. Hecserty
Judze Frank J. MurackjjS. V. Oostelln
Charles W. Ijueh iJam^s H. Noland
It^ must have warmed the cockles of
Smith's heart as his old friends greeted
him as he alighted from the train.
With a hearty laugh and a joke .he
gripped the hands of his old friends
and made them sure he was glad' to
see them again. Smith proudly admit
ted that he tipped the beam at 218
pounds, and said he was in excellent
health.
TELLS ABOUT AGUINALDO
Of course, his friends asked him
about Aguinaldo. the leader of the
Philippine insurrection. Smith assured
them that Aguinaldo was one of the
most peaceful citizens in the islands
and had been conducting himself most
satisfactorily since his release.
"The more I see of Aguinaldo the
better I like him," asserted the gov
ernor general. "He is now a man.
about 38 years old and is maintaining
himself on a small farm near Cavite.
He is not receiving any pension what
ever from the government.*;
General Smith stood on the forward
deck of the ferry in crossing from Oak
land mole. He frequently interrvupted
the conversation to call attention to
the new skyline that presented itself
to .him. His pride in his native San
Francisco welled up in hi* heart" and
he gloried in the courage of the men
who had* rebuilt the city.
The true democracy of this man who
has been so highly honored by his na
tion was apparent as he moved through
the ferry nave to the waiting automo
bile. -A 1A 1 blue shirted teamster grasped
his hand with a hearty word of wel
come. 'J * >.. .', • . \u25a0'.'•' --'\u25a0'.
" "Hello, old boy. I'm mighty, glad: to
see, you," returned Smith. The man
had bppn one of his soldiers -in
First California regimentTXearly every
policeman in the line put out Ixis-hand
with "I'm glad to see -you, Jim,'* and
the governor general showed by his
smile and response that h» relished
It all.
Escorted by a troop of cavalry Gov
ernor General and Mrs. Smith and the
members of the reception, committee
proceeded to the Fairmont/
CITY'S GROWTH ASTOUNDS HIM ';
In his suite of rooms the govgrnor
general was quickly at. a window, which
gave him a panorama of the business
district.
"It's. wonderful, and has beenaccom
plished in three •; years! And it" has
succeeded a temporary city, too," mused
Smith, as his -eyes "rested on the manj;
big buildings of the new San .Fran
ciscoV "
As for the people among.whom.Gen
THE .JSAyyFR^CISGO CAIjU
eral Smith has been for the last 11
years, he says they are delightful and
sincerely . regrets leaving- them. Thu
future of the islands is very bright.
While there are many highly, cultured
persons in the islands he does not think
the mass of the population is yet' ready
for independence. The people, however,
are rapidly, learning the benefits of a
democratic form of government.
"Since 1306 there has been no disturb
ance in the Philippines," said Smith. "I
exempt from this the trouble we are
liable to. have for years to come with
the Moros. The Moros are Mohamme
dans and are not inclined to look with
favor on Christians. They arc begin
ning to understand that the troops are
not there to - interfere with their re
ligion or their customs, except where
their # customs are not in consonance
with our morals. We are trying to
break up the slavery existing: among
them. It is a sort of peonage. Jikire's
band is the only body of Moros of any
Importance causing trouble. They are
outlaws pillaging the country. Robbery
is their chief motive. For the first time
in history Lake Lanao is now occupied
by troops, and the people are begin
ning to learn of the advantage of hav
ing them there."
DISCUSSES FRIAR- LANDS
General Smith disculs'ed at length the
friar lands situation and brought forth
the point that his attitude was the same
as that maintained by Taft in the ad
justment of the serious problem.
x "ln the first plaiv," said Smith, "great
differences had to be settled. There
were from 100,000 to 150,000 persons on
these lands. The title to the lands was
unquestionably vested in the friars.
After -the insurrection against Spain
many tenants /-insisted that the title
rested in them. In order to solve the
difficulty and to avoid interminable liti
gation and disputes, but, above all
things, disturbances of a public order
which might have resulted from the en
forcing of the legal rights of the re
ligious orders, the government pur
chased these lands. After surveying the
lands the government gave to all the
occupants the option either to continue
renting from the government or-to pur
chase outright, paying in installments.
"The majority of the occupants sig
nified their desire to purchas"e. This
was precisely what was^cjesired by

Buyers Have Told Their Friends of the' Bargains
at Sutter and Franklin Streets
When we decided to. take temporary
quarters in the Harry J. Moore furni-
ture building, adjoining . our ' new 10
story class A building under construc-
tion in O'Farrell street, we faced a
problem vof disposing of a large num-
ber of / -"'pianos, player pianos, talking
machines and records — in fact, musical
instruments of all kinds. But since the
announcement of our great removal
sale on last Sunday, piano buyers have
been coming to • Sutter ;and Franklin
streets in numbers which are increas-
ing daily.
For tomorrow we have decided to
offer a special, value in a. new piano
which should bring in dozens of people
to the store, anil we know positively
that practically every one who . calls
will leave an order for one of these
pianos. Tomorrow's special is the Hoff-
man . piano at the ridiculously low
price of $195. We have just received
20 of these" instruments -from -the Hoff-
man piano "company, the makers, In
Chicago — ordered before we contem-
plated moving. The Hoffman piano is
a thoroughly -.good, reliable, durable
instrument, "wltlta particularly \u25a0 sweet
tone. ;. It is up io date in every re-
spect, has a grand overstrung scale,
three pedals, practice. muffler, fine ivor^
keys, double repeating action, selected
sounding board, double veneered cases,
both in oak and mahogany. The^Hoff-
man piano is a real $300 value. $250
would be a very low price for this in-
strument. Although these pianos, have
just arrived, we have barely room to
accommodate them, and therefore mark
them at $195 each, the lowest price, at
which we have ever sold a piano' of
this grade. . The Hoffman-* piano is
thoroughly guaranteed, both., by the
makers and ourselves, for a , period of
five years,, and .will' be taken back at
full price- in exchangeVon , a Weber/
Kohler & '-'Chase,; Fischer, Steek or
Pianola piajio :, any time", within v. two
years at the^full price^ paid. The Hoff-
man Is as. -superior to the ordinary -low
priced piano as can" be imagined — su-
perior in point of durability, 'in stay-

and action^'' ;• ."

not, ask you to consider buying one.
