BUNCH OF WINNERS ARE THESE CANDIDATES A Bet of $1000 to $500 Which County Seat Democrats Failed to Call The best-looking crop of candidates ever seen in this city came to town the evening of the Smith meeting—Friday evening last. Johnny Lamb, the next tax collector, and Chas. R. Schenck, the next surveyor, drove in early, having spent the day in the northern portion of the county. W. G. Potter, the present treasurer, who is going to be re-elected by a large majority, and S. M. Davis, the next district attorney, drove in from the country west, where they found droves of democrats assuring them of their support. "Bry" Williams and Cal D. Lester, county clerk and auditor, who have little if any opposition, were all smiles as they were greeted by friends right and left, and Clyde Bishop, the next assemblyman, had hard work to keep from being run over by his many friends who crowded around him. ing hands with more friends that thought he had in the precinct ports were current a month ago he wouldn't get a vote in that place because he hasn't had his hair cutly, but he finds that with the rest of the hayseed from his whiskers going to get every vote there pretty near the same condition vail all over the county. If present indications count for thing, Walker will come pretty getting every vote in the court report from Santa Ana had Lacy himself was thinking of for him and making it unanimous. Sid Smithwick, candidate for stable at Santa Ana, came over what a real live town looked like said that an offer of $500 by coundemocrats that they would elemen on the ticket was called by licans, who offered odds of 2 to 1 bet. The unterrified pulled down money. Offers of even money that the licans elect every man on the ticket find no takers. GILLETT COMING J. N.

Lester, county clerk and auditor, who have little if any opposition, were all smiles as they were greeted by friends right and left, and Clyde Bishop, the next assemblyman, had hard work to keep from being run over by his many friends who crowded around him. George E. Peters, for recorder; W. M. Scott, for assessor, and George Smith, for coroner and public administrator, were the only three men in the bunch for whom alarm was felt. The democrats having made no nominations for these offices, their friends express doubt as to the probable outcome of the election. There will be probably 6000 votes cast in the county, and friends of these gentlemen are divided in their opinion as to the number each will get. Some say 5000, others say 6000. It is time for their friends to be rallying to their assistance, for it is barely possible that a vote here and there may get away. It is an awful thing to contemplate. And these men are such good men too. We feel sorry for them. They are not having a bit of fun. When all was in readiness for the march to the hall it was noticed that Farmer Walker was missing. The crowd was not long in waiting, for Walker soon came down street in a go-cart which bore resemblance to once having been an automobile.

Mr. Smith is popular in Orange county, and has been promised a majority of 2000. He expects to carry his district by 20,000. He arrived from the south early in the day and was met by many citizens of both political parties, all of whom greeted him with warmth and cordiality. He noted many evidences of advancement since his visit here two years ago and freely commented upon the new buildings and the size and appearance of the stores and shops about town. He was under the personal escort of F. C. Spencer and J. S. Howard of the county committee, W. H.

He was under the personal escort of F. C. Spencer and J. S. Howard of the county committee, W. H. Spake, the local delegate to the congressional convent, Postmaster Duckworth and other friends. Mr. Smith dined at the Commerclal hotel with friends and was met during the afternoon and evening by friends from town and countryside. One Loara farmer whom he had never met said as he advanced to shake hands with him: "You sent me a book from Washington which has been of great value to me." "The agricultural yearbook?" inquired the congressman, quick to recall the incident. "I am glad you found information in its pages. It's a valuable book." In the evening a large audience gathered at the opera-house to hear Mr. Smith speak. The city band discoursed patriotic airs in the street in front of the meeting place. A tally-ho of Fullerton republicans headed by Postmaster Tressler and George Schneider and blowing fishhorns drove up noisily. C. C. Chapman drove over with a party from his orange plantation in a big touring car. County candidates were out in full force, shaking the hand of the way-farer. F. C. Spencer presided at the meeting. He introduced the congressman to the audience as "your hired man," and made a brief talk felicitating the people upon having so able a representative. Mr. Smith spoke for an hour and a half, making an excellent impression upon his hearers. He referred to the many industries in this congressional district, all of which had benefited by republican legislation. Speaking of his own work in congress, he had secured appropriations amounting to a million and a half of dollars for the district, for public buildings, harbor work, forest reserves, care of the Indians, surveys of public lands, etc. He was also in charge of the bill giving California 5 percent of moneys derived from the sale of public lands within the state since its admission into the latter's field for business.

Speaking of his own work in congress, he had secured appropriations amounting to a million and a half of dollars for the district, for public buildings, harbor work, forest reserves, care of the Indians, surveys of public lands, etc. He was also in charge of the bill giving California 5 percent of moneys derived from the sale of public lands within the state since its admission into the union. This amounted to one million dollars and goes to support the public schools. The bill had been many times before congress, but although it passed the senate, was put to sleep in the house. He took it up with the speaker, with the result that the bill passed unanimously. Mr. Smith said he had just heard of a challenge issued to him by Mr. Barlow, his democratic opponent, who is a neighbor and friend residing in his own home town of Bakersfield. Barlow makes the proposition that if Smith will come out and support Bell for governor he (Barlow) will decline to run for congress, thus giving the republican candidate a walkover. Smith said he would have to decline the offer. He paid a fine compliment to the city band for its excellent music, as well as to the Fullerton fishhorn brigade, which he said furnished music of another order. The last session of congress was, he said, most harmonious and the California delegation had secured appropriations aggregating five, and a half millions of dollars for the state, exclusive of two and a half millions of dollars for the relief of San Francisco. The democratic party came in for SMITH AND GILLETT CHUMS AT SACRAMENTO While Members of the Legislature Both Lived in Same House—Views on Politics "No one who knows Congressman Gillett can fail to like him. I call him Jim; a man can't help but call him Jim, and he can't help but like him." The speaker was Congressman Smith as he sat in an easy chair at a downtown office, surrounded by a coterie of friends and supporters. Smith had just lighted one of Arnold's perfectos and was in excellent spirits. "Gillett and I roomed together in the same house at Sacramento while we were members of the state senate," he went on, "and we were frequently together evenings as well as during the sessions of the legislature. A better man than Jim Gillett never lived. He stands six feet two, a great big man, and just as good as he is big. In congress he was always in the forefront in defending the interests of California. Elected? By about 100,000 majority." "Gillett will come up to the mountain (Tehachapi) with anywhere from State picture was painted of the day prevailing throughout the city. Wages were higher than mere, and men could not find sufficient to do their work. Smith's closing references to the president were eloquent and cloud applause. "This great said the speaker, 'engaged in battle for the preservation of rights of the people, will ask the eighth congressional disqualification.
