1900. 1 AMBTIOUS Will Not Discuss His Appointment LAURA BENNETT Purchase of Stock in the Undertaking Advocated as an Investment. 1 facts about the removal sale I as Coast Counsel for the Santa Fe. S. Pillsbury, tbe wealthy corporation lawyer, addresses a letter to "Tbe Exam iner" In reference to tbe story of bis am bltion to become a United States Senator as tbe successor of George C.

Perkins. He passes without notice tbe allusion to tbe po ttition which tbe Santa Fe may or may not assume in 'reference to bis political aspira tions and says nothing of bis appointment as chief counsel of the railroad on tbe Coast. Mr. Pillsbury does not deny bis appoint ment by tbe Santa Fe nor his desire to succeed Senator Perkins. He admits that be is taking a very active interest in poll tics and says be will continue to do so.

Mr. Pillsbury's epistle is as follows; To the Editor of "Tbe Esumluer" Dear Sir: of the publicity lati'ly gireu to my duidk JrjN' ueh your paper iu couuectlon with tbe ottios orf tuirtd States Senator, 1 respectfully request tht HJlillcatiou of tula atatemeut. My ouly participation In politics tbia year baa Deeu to unit some of my rrlcuuaim acquaintance toco-operate with tbe regular ttepubilcun organua tloo of tbia city in securlne tbe nuiniuution of can- didatet particularly for the Superior bench wbo would comruuud the coutlilence of trie voters ami be likely to carry tbe election. I am nut, ami while tbe existing lack of harmony prevails, will not, be a candidate for United stntrs Seuator or ny otber office in tbe gift of this State. It will be time enousth to consider uch a cun dldacr when success shall depend entirely upon tne advocacy or defense or tne principles ot my party In which tbe whole State la interested and not upon affiliation wltb auy portion or that party; and until tben my friends of ibe press will confer tbe greatest favor by allowing me to pur sue my business as a private cltlien.

E. S. PILLSBURY. The Pillsbury appointment and politi cal ambition means a prolonged and bitter fight in the Republican party In California unless the Santa Fe rail road makes it clear that It bas no intention of meddling, with the politics of this State. Those who ought to know are asserting that the Santa Fe people, by plac ing Pillsbury in their law department, have not tne least idea at present of getting be hind him in his political fight.

They have simply selected him as their attorney on account of his position before the bar. Tbe question of hold-over Senators in the Legislature is tbe only way in which tbe next Senatorial fight will come up'at the election in November next. Mr. Pillsbury and bis friends are represented as being very much interested In who shall be candl dates for the State Senate this fall. Several henchmen of Mr.

Pillsbury's friends have ben asking tbe Santa Fe people for passes for members of their families to the Bast and return. It is understood the company refused such requests, much to the annoyance and chagrin of certain friends cf the attorney. i It is said the refusal came through Messrs and Walker, the Santa Fe's two rtrfiief executive officers. Their action in this respect confirms the rumor that they AP.C.Pntpd Pillshllrv att tha Inrtol Hnrnan the company with the understanding that bis Interest in politics out here should not bring tbe company into bad odor with the publio nor commit it to any man's candidacy, even for that of constable. dir.

Pillsbury, however, is rich enough to I the Santa Fe in a minute if he finds that company will not assist him in putting around his shoulders the Senatorial toga. We buy trunks by the carload. That's why we sell good trunks at reasonable prices. Suit cases, Taliaes, traveling bags, coin purses and pocket-books in our leather Roods department. Sauborn.

Vail 741 Market street. PLEA FOR LAUNDRY GIRLS. Labor Commissioner Asks Supervisors to Give Them Shorter Hours. In a communication' to the Board of Supervisors asking for shorter hours for laundry employees, Labor Commissioner F. V.

Meyers calls attention, to the fact that of the 2,000 leundry workers about 60 per centum are women ana girls, and they are forced to labor from 7 a. m. to 10 p. m. He asks the Supervisors to amend the ordinance restricting their hours of work so that it would prevent them working after 7 p.

m. His letter states: "These women and girls stand at the mangles and Ironing machines and tables from 7 o'clock in the morning until 8 or 9, and on extremely heavy days, even 10 o'clock at night, with only short later va Is at noon and 6 o'clock for meals. It seems to me that when they have stood from 7 o'clock in the morning until 7 o'clock at night in the heat and steam and gases of the mangling and ironing rooms, they have done all that an employer should demand, all and more than nature can In Justice "Lucke is Tbe.erection of a Labor Temple was dis-cum ed last night at a mass meeting held at Metropolitan Hall, under tbe joint auspices of tbe Labor and Building Trades Councils. Tbe meeting was called by tbe Board of Directors of tbe Labor Temple Association for the purpose of acquainting the publio with tbe plana of the proposed meeting-bouse, wltb the idea ot promoting the sale of tbe stock. Judging from tbe Interest shown in tbe remarks of the speakers tbe project will take another forward movement.

E. L. Malsbary, President of tbe Board ot Directors of the Labor Temple Association, was tbe first speaker. He reviewed the causes that led to tbe decision of tbe leaders in tbe several unions to agi tate the erection of a meeting-house where all tbo unions might have their headquar te-rs. He showed the advantages of the con centration of the various organizations in one central place, stating that it would give labor more power and gain tor It greater respect from capital and also from the gov erning powers.

If the 30,000 men. he said. wno are affiliated with labor organizations la this city should subscribe for one share apiece it would give more money than will be required to erect the proposed temple. The cost cf the enterprise, including tha ground and building complete, is estimated at $125,000. Tbe stock is being sold at 15 per shure, payable in Ave monthly installments.

Tntre is no reason, be said, why union labor cannot raise the funds necessary. The various unions have on deposit $300,000 in the local banks. With active work by those who have taken charge of tbe affair there is no reason why the project will not succeed. What Is wanted is more Individual subscribers. Every stockholder becomes an active worker in tbe cause and the more workers the sooner the project will become a rertllty.

Cleveland L. Dam declared that tbe project would prove a profitable Investment, assur ing dividends of 12 to 15 per cent annually. When the seventy labor organizations have their headquarters in a central place the prestige ot organized labor is proportion ately increased. Mr. Dam treated the sub ject from three points as an investment, from the social advantages and from tne po litical side.

He showed how easy it was to acquire a little self-denial stock in this cor poration that would pay large returns. Ho dwelt on the social features, bow tbe mem bers of the various unions would benefit by meeting In one hall through acquaintance and a discussion of matters tnat anectea their welfare. Regarding tbe political side of the propo sition, he showed that the erection or the proposed temple and the concentration of organized labor would gain the respect of politicians, and they would be more anxious to heed and grant tbe demands made tor legislation In labor interest. P. H.

McCarthy, president of tne Building Trades Council, said the matter was a business proposition and would prove a very profitable investment for those who took stock in the association. The erection of the building, he believed, would be accom plished. Organized labor needed it and fie said was bound to have it. E. Myron Wolfe also made a strong ad dress favorable to the project.

The closing speech was made by E. L. Clapp, president of the Labor Council, whose remarks were in line with what the otber speakers said. B. I.

Barnett. comedian, entertained tna audience with some humorous dialect specialties. Blum's Orchestra was in attendance and enlivened the occasion with some cnoice numbers. AN ART IN ITSELF. The proper sad appropriate framlug of pictures bas within a few years become an art in itaeir.
