ALAMEDA COUNTY NEWS. PERSONALITY IN POLITICS Succeeds Decency in the Alameda Contest. "DEAD CAT" IS THE LATEST FALSEHOOD THE WEAPON OF THE PARDEE CAMP. A Northern State Committeeman Compares the Quarrel to a Punch and Jud7 Show. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, (roadway, July 24.

"Tin you refer to that Punch and Judy playing a never ending engagement unty?" k.r was a member of the State from a northern was crossing to Oakland last Sat- and was asked thought of Alameda's ral campaign. His answer was nd when requested to explain it he took two copies of Pardee's organ from his pocket. Kicked at them with a way to'his eyes and pmiled. There was good ground for his sarcasm. Unfortunately, Alameda's campaign for.

nor has degenerated into stupid and offensive personal contest. Vituperaitlon. innuendo il the methods known as "dirty poli- Introduced and each side ther for the reprehensible y. a sample paragraph from Dr. of last Saturday: Mr.

Davis and Mr. Chapman have said that they have no use for any man or set of men have ever refused to vote for the Republican nominees In municipal affairs. Mr. Chapman! has said, from the same platform Mr. Pa vis, that he regarded Dr.

Pardee ns a and Mr. Davis, by his nilence, has Indorsed what his friend, Mr. Chapman, about Dr. Pardee. When Mr.

Chapman abused Dr. Pardee, as only Mr. Chapmnn can. Mr. Davis sat quietly by and smilingly assented to all that his political friend paid.

And when Mr. Chapman took occasion to strike at all who ever voted anything: but the straight Uppublican ticket in municipal affairs, his friend, Mr. Davis, by his silence, if In no other way, assented to all of Mr. Chapman's abuse. When political arguments get down to "dead cat" basis and to falsehood they are certainly of the Punch and Judy show order, and that the State thus views the Pardee-Davis wrestling match is the i fault of the principals.

In another copy of Dr. Pardee's organ is this direct falsehood, known to Dr. Pardee to be such: The true Jnwardness of The Call's opposition to George C. Pardee In this county Is said to be that the line of political argument and the trend of thought adopted as gospel by the Alameda County correspondent of John Spreckels' paper is formulated by the Democratic boss of Oakland, Frank J. Moffltt.

Following the line of stupid logic applied to Mr. Davis by Dr. Pardee. the doctor has by his silence indorsed it. If he rill refresh his memory he will remember that the man whom he now accuses of allowing others to think for him wmtf for Dr.

Pardee his notification to Stare" tTTal'Ke" (Oft "doctor) was a candidate for Governor. So well pleased was Dr. Pardee with the little effort that he pronounced it better than he could have done for himself, and he was proud to see it go forth in his name. And the following evening it was copied into the tor's organ verbatim. With the same dissimulation entering into every detail of the doctor's campaign is it any wonder that the rest of the State refers to Alameda's Punch and Judy show.

Even the people in this county are now to a large extent sharing the opinion of the other counties. They realize that they are being used in a game of battledore and shuttlecock. A few months ago the Enquirer was extolling Mr. Davis to the skies and speaking of him 'he one man who could lead the Republican hosts to victory. This kept up for a time, and then Dr.

Pardee came along. He did something to that newspaper (he says he didn't buy it), and from that time it has striven most ludicrously to convince the county that the- of cheese it gave them a short time ago is not good for its political dlgestion, and has striven to substitute chalk. Now they would, very naturally, like to know when another chef may be expected with another bill of fare. 'Tis funny, 'tis true, and 'tis true 'tis funny, and perhaps after all it does appear to an outsider something like a Punch and Judy show. It would peem also as if some of the interior papers have caught the spirit of the show, for Dr.

Pardee publishes this from the Eureka Standard: Henry T. Gage, the Los Angeles lawyer. Its being brought prominently forward by the politicians from the south, while here It is believed by many that the successful candl. date will come from Alameda County, and that Dr. Geonre Parciee formerly Mayor of Oakland, will be the lucky man.

Mr. Davis offsets this with a double shot from the same paper as follows: W. R. Davis is an able man, a clean, honest and honorable man. The good things paid of Mr.

Davis by the Pasadena News are all true. That the Eureka Standard now has evidently "caught on" to the situation. Dr. Pan! also claims that he is indorsed by the organ of the San Jose "gang," but this occasions no surprise in this county as there is much to suggest that he has during the past few years taken lessons in politics from Jim Rea. Of more Ir tance just now than tran- sient politics is the question of the location of the fuse works that were blown to f.

Ms last Tuesday. The explosion "was a revelation to the people that lived in the vicinity. They had not the slightest Jdea they were living in such close proximity to such a mighty engine of death and the indignation meeting held last night was a very timely proceeding. If the evidence of the officers of the works be true thai theVe was a much smaller amount of powder in the magazine at the time of the accident than is usually on band, there should not be any need of a to prevent the i works being rebuilt in the same locality. In other words, to rebuild at the scene of last explosion, is to wilfully expose to tt anger of Instant death one hundred and sixty little children who attend the adjoining school.

most notable Incident of the catastrophe, next to the death the victims, attering demolition of the Melrose schoolhouse. It is almost beyond belief that a powder magazine and a public school should be neighbors In a country as sparsely settled as Melrose. Fortunately the explosion occurred before school was open for the day and while the 160 little ones were in their beds. Fortunately, also, there a "small" stock of powder on hand. There is no guarantee that the Chinese em- Hot again quarrel, or the be tired, and the natural rom this Is surely argument enough to prevent the works being rebuilt on the Old site.

There is yet anothe strong point brought forward, and that is that the development of the district must naturally be retarded by the presence of such a menace to life and property. Not for some years have the different departments of the city government bi en running as smoothly and with so 1 general satisfaction as at present. Since the new heads of the Police and Fire departments, the weekly squabbles I that were brought before the Commis- eioners are missing, and apparently the tt feeling prevails on all sides. There is also a pood administration in the Street Department, and If any change be contemplated for political reasons a loud howl of opposition would be raised. It is a good time to let well alone STtTART W.

He was going to Martinez to inspect a ranch belonging to him and was waiting for his train He was about to step on one of the tracks when a friend who was with him said: "Look out. there comes the train."

SEWWG WOMEN ARE ACTING IN HARMONY TRADEMARKS TO KNOCK OUT CHINESE-MADE GOODS. Another Enthusiastic Meeting at Which the Purposes of the Incorporation Are Fully Explained.

The -women interested in the Incorporation of the Woman's Sewing Company met in Pythian Castle yesterday afternoon and received a report of progress from the directors. Mrs. M. E. Squire 4ed, and pointed remarks were made by Mrs.

Addle L. Ballou. W. W. Allen, lira.

Sehlessinger, Mrs. Naomi Anderson, George T. Boyd and others. The articles of incorporation have been forwarded to i the Secreetary of State, and already nu- merous subscriptions for stock, of which; shares will be Issued at $1 each, 1 have ben received. The objects of the incorporation are thus Bet forth: To protect working women and enable them to secure full value for their labor.

To contract for sewing of all kinds and distribute the same to deserving women at prices equal to the value of the work to be performed. To furnish work to deserving women at i both factory and home, so the families shall receive the benefits instead of en- riching contractors. To establish, maintain and conduct a 1 factory and depot for supplying women with sewing of all kinds, at all times, at prices in proportion to their ability to perform, and grade the same up to the full value of the character of the labor performed upon each class of work. Manager W. W.

Alien reported that a suitable building had been secured, 30xS0 light and electric power available, at the corner of Eighth and Folsoin streets, which will be the depot of supply. Those eligible to membership company must be citizens of the States or become such; must be of good moral character, competent to do the work, and desist from politics in any form. It is proposed to give to labor 70 per cent of the profits, retaining but SO per cent for the running expenses. Man- Allen believed that the company's trademark would be almost sufficient to Chinese work to be tabooed. All getting work will be subjected to certain rules, and any one may purchase stock, nd Japanese being excluded.

Mrs. Ballou spoke particularly of the i benefits of organized labor, and said that the needle will be the company's most desperate weapon, the toneue being curbed. She spoke of the patriotism of women during the Civil War, and thc.r characteristics of Independence, clever- i ness, courage and virtue. She urged the sewing women to "put their shoulders to the wheel, manfully, as it were." Mrs. Knomi Anderson.

a colored i woman, expressed her gratitude at being classed with American women, and could nee no reason for the foreign prefix in "Afro- American." Mr. Boyd called attention to a case where an unfortunate woman was offered $1 75 per dozen for making ladles' wrappers, and this showed the great of concerted action on the part of the sewing women of this city. Another meeting will be held shortly, notice of which will be given through the papers. BETRAYED HIS CONFIDENCE. Captain Lorenson of the Schooner Marietta Robbed by a Boy.

i Captain Lorenson of the schooner Marietta, lying at the foot of Third street, reported at the Southern Police Station yesterday that he had boon the victim of a boy he had taken pity upon and given shelter for the night. "The boy came to me," said the captain, "last night and told me that he was destitute anu had no friends in the city, lie said he had recently come from Chicago by the brake-beam route and begged me to give him a bunk to sleep in. "I took pity upon him and allowed him to sleep in my cabin. This morning while I was absent from the cabin the boy disappeared and I discovered that he had $21 which I had in my trousers' pockets hanging up in the cabin. There was $15 in gold and $6 in silver." The captain described the boy as about 14 years of age, light complexion and hair and wore a gray cap and coat, brown apron overalls and a pair of shoes that were too large for his feet.

The police are hunting lor the boy. THE SAIST FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, JULY 25, 189 S. ADMIRED THE GRAND NAVE Hundreds of People In spected the Depot. WERE LOUD IN THEIR PRAISES TRANSPORTS ATTRACT A GREAT DEAL OF ATTENTION. Three Deep-Water Vessels Arrive After Long Passages Rough Weather Encountered by the Burmah.

Another attraction Is offered visitors to this city and in fact to its own inhabitants. The grand nave in the new Union Ferry Depot was visited by thousands of people yesterday. Great praise was bestowed on Its designer and wonder was expressed at the beautiful stones and glass used in its construction. The latest acquisition to San Francisco's costly structures can now be seen to advantage, as the old shacks that disfigured the landing and hid it from view have been removed and the building now looms up in all its magnificence. A great deal of interest also attached to the transports Arizona, Scandia and Centennial and hundreds view the splendid ships from a distance, as armed guards precluded a closer inspection.

The merry hammering on steel could be heard on the Centennial. One hundred men divided Into two shifts are working day and night putting in new boiler plates to satisfy the Inspectors on their next examination. The Scandia has been adjudged to be in excellent condition by the proper officials and she will doubtless be placed on the dry dock to-day for scraping and painting. The St. Paul was removed from the later place yesterday and brought down to seawall No.

4 in preparation for her trip to southern waters. Light winds and numerous calms were responsible for the long trip of the bark Big Bonanza which arrived from Sydney yesterday. Captain Bergman said he left Syndey the day before war was declared and after an uneventful voyage of ninetytwo days was glad to reach this port. The Lord Templeton, another bark, followed the Bonanza in. She brought a general cargo from Newcastle-on-Tyne and was 157 days in coming.

Captain Jones of the ship Burmah, which left Antwerp on the 11th of March, was glad to reach this port with his ship Intact. Fourteen days after he started he had the misfortune to lose his fore topgallant mast in a heavy gale. Gales continued while the ship was off the River Platte for about a fortnight, during which time he lost a number of sails, a small boat and numerous articles about the deck by heavy seas. The vessel could not make much progress as the gales were all westerly. The captain said he had flue weather off Cape Horn, which surprised him, considering the time of the year.

The quarantine tug Hartley will return to night work now that the Golden Gate is back for work. She has been newly painted and thoroughly overhauled, making a beautiful appearance. Her Captain Butts, is justly proud of her. J. Peterson, 607 Battery street, fell from a ladder yesterday while painting a vessel at the Merchants' Drydock and was severly injured.

Dr. Zabala of the Harbor Hospital, who attended him, fears he is internally injured. The distance of his fall was over twenty feet. NATIONAL GUARD OF CALIFORNIA SEEKING INFORMATION OF THE STATE'S ARMED FORCE. List of Those Who Have Been Adjutant Generals of California, Naval Militia.

Major General John H. Dickinson has returned from his tour of observation In the limits of the First Brigade and the first thing he did upon his return, as a means to the end of reorganizing the armed force of the State, was the Issuance of a circular letter to all the companies in the State in which are embraced the following questions which will serve as the base for future operations in the matter of putting the guard on a solid footing once more. What are the names of the members of the company? The rank of each. What was the date of enlistment and date of re-cnllstment? Why are such members not In the service of the United States? If any member in physically disabled, what Is the nature of the disability. If known? What property has the company on hand? Give the same in deta.i.

Who Is In command of the company? If other than a commissioned officer, by whose authority? Have the oaths of the enlisted men been forwarded? What money Is due the company from the State? Can you recruit up to at least fifty men? If so, how do you know? Oive the indebtedness of the company In detail. What Is due the armorer? What Is due for light for water and other indebtedness? If these questions, simple and unmistakable, are properly answered, there will be no difficulty for the Board of Location to arrive at the exact status of the guard at this. time. Until the answers are received nothing will be done except to gather information that will assist the board In placing tho companies, that are to be reorganized, in such parts of the State where they may be most available. "What the numerical strength of the new guard is has not yet been agreed upon, but If it Is to be onehalf of what It was before the declaration of war, there will be no difficulty in filling the ranks, Judging from the number of applications that have been filed by individuals who have offered their services to the State.

It Is true, however, that many of these offered themselves in anticipation that there might be a third call and. their -purpose in tendering their services was to be able to go as a part of the National Guard of the State, rather than individuals who might be assigned to this, that or some other branch of the service. i The return of the election held In Company of the Fifth Infantry, located at Napa.has been received at Division Headquarters. This shows that Captain Frank W. Bush was re-elected, Harry L.

Gunn was re-elected first lieutenant and Gilbert A. Wright was elected second lieutenant. Major Margo of the Second Brigade staff presided at the The regimental armory of the First Infantry Is located at the corner of Page and Gough streets, but people who are not aware of that fact are apt to be misled by the gilt letter sign which stands out prominently over the entrance to the large building pn'the south side of Market street near Tenth. This sign which reads: "First Regiment Infantry N. G.

has been there ever since the eight companies of the First were transferred from that building to the one at Page and Gough I streets, where may now assemble those members of the eight companies who did not go' to" the front with Colonel J.F. Smith and the rest of the fighting boys from California. A correspondent has asked who were the adjutant generals of the State of California. The following is the list: T. R.

Fersee with rank of brigadier general, 1850-51; E. W. McKinstry. brigadier general, 1851-52: William C. Kibbe, brigadier general, 1552-53: Robert Robinson; brigadier general, George S.

Evans, brigadier beneral, 1864-65: Robert Robinson, brigadier general, 1865-66; Georee S. Evans, brigadier general, 1866-68; James M. Allen, brigadier general, 1868-70; Thomas Cazneau, brigadier general, 1870-71; L. H. Foote, brigadier general, IS7I-75; P.

F. Walsh, brigadier general, 1575-S0; Samuel W. Backus, major general, 1880-82; John F. Sheehan, major general, 1883-83; George B. Crosby, major general, 1883-87; Richard H.

Orton. brigadier general, 1887-91; Charles C. Allen, brigadier general, 1891-95, and Andrew W. Barrett, 1895, Incumbent. The parade reports of the Naval Militia on the Fourth of July, which includes the men on special duty, show an excess of 800.

The parade in this city had in it seventy-five men of the battalion located here. This is looked upon as a very good showing in view of the fact that quite a number of the men have enlisted in other branches of Uncle Sam's service. A letter received from Lieutenant Turner, commanding the Iroquois, formerly the Fearless, announces that the vessel is loading stores as rapidly as possible and that she will soon be ready for sea. The work on the other scouting tugs is not being pushed as rapidly, but there is considerable work being done. The men of the two divisions In this city are being drilled weekly, and at this time particular attention is being paid to infantry tactics with the view to utilize the men for infantry, should there be a third call for volunteers.

The usual discipline is maintained on the Marion, but not so much attention as in the past is paid to ship drill. Swiss Rifle Club Celebration. The annual picnic and outing of the Swiss Rifle Club, which developed on thla occasion Into a patriotic celebration, was held yesterday at Fairfax. This club Is one of the most select of the Swiss organizations In existence In the country and has had a life of thirtyseven years. Accbrdlngly the picnic was private, about 150 members and invited guests being present.

The principal feature of the day was a banquet in the large pavilion. Orations were delivered in English by A. Gehret, A. Borlini and G. F.

Cavalli; In German by L. Juri; in Italian by Architect Tognazzinl, and in French by C. Grandjean. They were all patriotic In nature and numerous references were made to the American and Swiss flags, intertwined above the speakers' stand. In the afternoon a number of operatic and patriotic songs of both countries were sung by a chorus consisting of Mr.

Desmond (tenor), A. Borlini (barytone), A. Gehret (basso), Mrs. Christine (soprano) and J. Baumgarten (tenor).

When the national hymns were sung hats came off all around. Dancing followed the exercises. REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS. John and Mary Quinton to George and Eufhemia Towns. lot on line of Chattanooga, 129 of Twenty-first, 25 by 125; Bartholomew Healey.
