FRESNO EDITOR
SAYS MAUZY IS
MAN FOR MAYOR
Fills Qualifications of Good
Businessman and Citizen,
Says Rowell
Republican Candidate Declares
Himself for a Business
Administration
' Byron Mauzy promised the thirty
fourth district republican club last
evening to give San Francisco a busi
ness administration.
"But if you nominate" me," he* said,
"you must nominate good men to sup-
The kind of businessman the city
r.^eds was the subject of the following
address by Chester Rowell, the Fresno
editor, who said the mayor should be a
good businessman and a good citizen
as well. He named Mauzy as the man
>ho filled both qualifications.
. "This campaign," said Rowell, "Is
going to determine a great deal for
• San Francisco and for California."" This
.city is a large part of the state, and
the rest of the state must take such
•government largely as this city gives
.it. So you must give yourselves the
right sort of government.
GOOD CITIZENS WASTED
"It isn't a question of getting good
.businessmen. There are many kinds
"of good businessmen. Good business
\u25a0men who are good citizens are the kind
..wanted. . * ;
."A government must represent all the
.ipeople. Any candidate may say. Tin
\u25a0 nfl man's man." Anybody who would
.admit he's a slave is not fit to be a
-,«!ave.
;• "Now some of ue have watched this
. businessmen's committee at work, se
lecuing the so called business ticket op
posing us. We have seen the committee
•of 100 boiled down to 25, and the 25
to 3 and the 3 »to 1, and he an out
t-ider—Tim Sullivan. They let Tim
do their thinking for them.
Th* ticket is composed. Its lower end
at least, of hired henchmen of a hired
bos?.
\u25a0 "No one is against the public service
corporations, but the corporations have
an idea they can get more if they own
a government. So the business co_m
:m!tt*'e begins to choose a ticket. They
select \u25a0 first, after grave .deliberation,
Crocker, whom Tim Sullivan picked out
as the man months ago. But after
they; got their board of supervisors, Sul
livan's own choosing of some time
.back, they began ti» apologize. They
rF,Hid they got tne best material they
liird. Yet they passed over 18 decent.)
nvn on their own ticket — did not «-on- j
sider one of this IS because they
couldn't Pi*.nd for a reformer.
; "The public service corporations find
it cheaper to elect their own govern
ment than to buy one already elected."
MALZV IS DEFINITE
Mauzy's remarks were short, but left
nothing clouded. He said he for a
progressive city. Iletch Hetchy water
and "a gas rate that does not pay divi
dends on watered stock or on unused
pipe acquired from a rival company."
"If elected." Mauzy stated, "I will
give 'the best that's in me."
\u25a0 '\u25a0 Before the arrival of Mauzy and
•Rowell. Chairman W*. H. Stewart called
. upon George Crothers, secretary of the
.Stanford university estate.
-"""This Is the rottenest board of su- ;
• p*rvisors ever proposed to the people,"
'•i% the way Crothers characterized the
; frlate indorsed by the businessmen's
.'cmnmittee. He declared:
••;..• "You haven't heard a word said
•.ajrainsi the candidates for supervisors
•W. named; yet. what has not been
ss>d of the other ticket?" .
'•"..-This was the only opportunity Mauzy
•'•"h/ad to speak last evening. The break
•.lng down, of his automobile delayed
•h.:Tn until other meetings he intended
visit had adjourned.
• One of the meetings disappointed in
nbt^ bearing -Mauzy was at 1548 Stock-
street in the forty-fifth district.
Chairman Anton" J. Garibaldi called
upon Assistant City Attorney Steinhart,
who told of the work done by. Long
<n the sras and water litigation, E. J.
Callan for sheriff and C. W. Riffee for
supervisor on the reform ticket.
In the forty-third district Senator
M«rk Anthony. Harry McKannay and
Dr. William J. Jackson, the chairman.
*poke in behalf of the municipal
league's choice of men. Mauzy com
mittee meetings were held In both the
thirtr-fifth and fortieth districts.

Crocker Promises a
Good Administration
Businessmen's Candidate for Mayor; Points
Out Needs of San Francisco
i in —
William Crocker, the businessmen's
candidate for mayor, • addressed a
crowded meeting of the' republicans of
the thirty-eighth district in La Boheme
hall, Ellis "street near Fillrnore, \u25a0 last
night. When Crocker entered he*was
received with much applause and three
cheers were given at the conclusion of
his speech.
"1 ask your votes," said Crocker,
"for a business administration. I am
familiar with the wants of all classes.
You are all anxious to hear how I
stand on the issues of this campaign."
I am for everything that will make "San
Francisco the queen of the coast.
"We need good, pure water and lots
of it. There's lots of it trickling
down the sides of the great Sierra;
let's hold it there so we will have* a
good supply.
"Wha would we have had in San
Francisco since the fire if it had not
been for private enterprise? Show me
a public building that has been erected.
Hang your heads In shame, for each of
you is guilty." * -*'^V v ". .
PROMISES TO DO THINGS
Crocker pleaded for good streets,
good sewers and plenty of - electric
lights. He sketched his, business ca
reer in San Francisco.
"Elect me mayor," he concluded, "and
111 see to it that things are done."
Dr. Henry Abrahm • presided | beneath
a large banner which proclaimed
Crocker the "regular republican nomi
nee" for mayor.
Benjamin L. McKinley, candidate for
city attorney, answered- the critics who
objected to his willingness to wait for
the platform before expressing his:
views. He also disposed of the'accusa
tion that he was a mere youth by j
pointing to his bald spot.
M. M. Stern said that the office of re
corder, to which he aspired, was "a
nominal office." P. A. Bergerot, candi
date for supervisor, repeated his slo
gan, "When will the new city hall be
done?" ;
WOLFE FOR CROCKER v
Senator Edward I. Wolfe told of the
enactment of ; the direct primary law
and explained its consequences.
"Politics has ceased to-be a snap,"
he said. "It's now a pretty hard game.
The candidate has to be tried and true
to be successful. ,' .
"I did not know some weeks ago that ,
I was going to be on the platform for
William Crocker., 1 did not know Mr.
Crocker. Hiit 1. know him- now;; his
life is an, open fiook.. With, a "mayor
like Crocker and a supervisor like Ber
gerot. within two years San Francisco
will have between six and seven hun
dred thousand inhabitants."
"It do not matter what board you
come before," said A. M. Wallen, candi
date for supervisor, "you are entitled to
a square deal. The newspapers got
nothing to do but knock."
-OH, YOU CHICKKN"
Whereupon a sailor in. the rear of
the hall sang out: "Oh, you chicken."
"I am in this fight," said F. L. Han
sen, another candidate for supervisor,'
with becoming modesty, "not for the
salary, but because I believe we 'need
good. strong, straight, substantial
businessmen." {;f.-'J.

M'CARTHY RELIES
UPON HIS RECORD
Union Labor Candidate for Nom=
ination for Mayor. Attacks
Good Government Party
W« want a man of McCarthy's build —
, And a little bit more.
We want a man of McCarthy's >will—
And a little bit' more.
We -want no tlx months' lockouts,^S^
As in the days of yore—
P. H. McCarthy's the workinsman's friend
, .And a. little bit more.- -
Fired by the lilt of this lay, sung by
two young women, P. ,H. McCarthy
made -a savage attack upon 'the con
duct of the' municipal government by
the present administration at a meet
ing of the thirty-third assembly .dis
trict McCarthy : club last night. " The
candidate for ( the union labor jiomina
tion declared, in a flery address^ that
the workingman had been the last con r
sideration of those .now in- office, and
that affairs would ;be far" otherwise
were he\elected mayor. I^^^
Passing, from a general survey of
the manner in which he alleged the
good government forces treated the
"plain people," McCarthy said: "Let us
consider a few specific instances of
their generosity to the man who ha's to
tarn his bread by. the hardest ; toil; Re
member what their promises were two
years ago when they persuaded so
many union labor men to bolt the
ticket." And look at how those prom
ises have been kept.
COMPLAINS OF WAGE REDUCTION
'.'lt was the good government party,
my friends, that decided \u25a0 the carpen
ters should riot havethe half v holiday
pay, on each • Saturday, "fearing that
perhaps the carpenters 'might accumu
late enough^to start a :bank; account,
and took that sum from .'their.- weekly
wage.': ; ' \u0084\u25a0 ' : ' "; - ' .-.; ; • ";
"It was^the' good government party,
again 4 that took the. 50 cents per day
off : the painters' wages,: rind the $2.50
for Saturday afternoon.. In all the de
partments of labor engaged in work
for the city \u25a0 they, did the same—re
ducing wages. The hod 'carriers had
$B.soper week taken from . their pay
slip, and the electricians rhad |25 per
montlv taken oft at, one-slice.-' ' ' .••.'-. .
'•That is ; your, good government
regime i right through. Fifty-seven
thousand dollars spent for autbs while
the/;worklngman finds it ! hard l to feed
his family. Tire school board members
go to Europe at the -city's expense: and
take their daughters— also at the city's
expense. ; \ * ,*
'"I stand-on ray record and ask for.
your vote with the hope only that I
may be; able to for 1 all the people
what I have-done in thepast for. the
working people — work hard, 'and work
well." \ '
GIRLS DASCE FOR FATHER
;P. J. Kelleher, candidate for public
administrator,' received, with" his little
daughters, Edna and Mildred, the ; most
enthusiastic applause", of the evening,
for the three did. a ; couple, of- jigs in
fine style.. Kelleher said,'; ln a short ad
dress, that he believed he merited the
union labor vote." : \u25a0 . v "
Colonel Thomas OtN'eil, candidate for
tax collector, J made "a , short speech,
saying -that" he could make '\u25a0\u25a0 but* one
promise," for but one ; was | needed— that
he would perform 'the duties'of^his "of
fice faithfully and honestly,^ if elected.
O'N'eil indorsed McCarthy heartily. '
Geqrge: Barron acted ''as chairman of
the .large meeting and James \u25a0Newsom,
president of the club/as first vice presi

ALLEGED TO HAVE
VIOLATED THE LAW
District Attorney investigating
What Looks Like Case of
Double Registration
District Attorney William :H/ Langr
don has been supplied by Registrar of
Voters" J: 11. Zemansky with- evidence
of a case 'of double registration which
is expected to lead to an arrest and
prosecution. .
The registrar has discovered 'that
William Madison English " of 420 Jones
street is registered, both: in this city
and county and Jn-Marin county..' As
English neglected to have his registra
tion canceled in this city before.mak
ing affidavit in Marin county* he is
.amenable to the provision of the politi
cal and penal i codes, which make j this. ;
offense a felony punishable* by from
one to three' years in; therstate prison.
IXFORMATIOX FROM PISTOLESI
: The case of English was first called
to :the : . attention, of the/ ; registrar
Wednesday Iby Supervisor \u25a0; Li ' C i Pis
tolesi ..of ,'Sausalito. ' Pistolesl v stated
that ; English had attemptedl to "vote at
the election-, in .Sausalito' in, "April of
this year, although , at 'i that time he
was registered< in: both' counties. ,Pis
tolesi's interest in English's 'political'
activity on both sides of the bay
springs from .the fact that English
boasted that he, was going; to ;vote
against the supervisor'ln Sausalito.; :
English "was registered" in 'Sausalito'
February .7, 1908, *andvgayei his ; age as
55*yeara and his. occupation as "mining
engineer. 'August ; 31, ;' 1908, he - regis-,
tered in' this city.r giving real .estate
as^ his 'business and 420 Jones; street
as* his residence. . ,' . ~ ; "

' Pistblesl ;..;. informed- - Zemansky that
English i ivoted in Sausalito;(a yearj ago
last; April;; that : lie\ therf "registered in
this I city-in '" August Toti, last J year,' and
voted at the general-? election in this
city," and that' he again 'tried- to -vote
in, Sausalito, last- April:;! Ab ; that time
