Daniel A. Ryan Requested to Withdraw in Mayor Tay-
v lor's FaTor Labor Party May Fuse With Dem
g. ocrats in an Effort to Beat Langdon.
By John Taylor Waldorf.
' Baa Francisco. Sept 14. Only the
trlU phrase, "Confusion worse con
founded," can describe tha praaant po
litical situation in thla city of great up
feearala Tha clamor of tha advocates
of Mayor Taylor has become quite a
Boise, and Daniel A, Ryan, leader of the
regular Republican league. Is sitting up
and taking notice. Ryan la not unwill
ing to step aside, but many of his fol
lowers say It la now too late to back
(down and that, i-erardlMS of his wishes,
he will be nominated for mayor at the
first session of the Republican conven
tion, which is set for next Tuesday
night
r - In Ryan's camp are many practical
'politicians of long . experience. These
men have considerable influence with
.certain delecatlona and every one of the
f "veta" la atrongly opposed to the noml-
J nation of Mayor Taylor. According to
J their way of thinking the selection of
3 Taylor would wreck the Ryan organisa
' 'tlon, no matter how the election came
' out. If Taylor won be would make his
appointments without regard to political
J service, and the Ryan organisation, hav
f Ing no juba to bestow, could not satisfy

I clam with oratory would not be worth

J drawn pay from the city, and they want

: men think Ryan fills the bill, and that

"V- The good government league, which
ties taken on ltaelf the task of making
Taylor's fight, talks of employing r'blg

the aforesaid league will. If it follows

to overflowing, and after a number of

calling on Ryan to 'withdraw ltf favor

Ryan- men do not use pretty words
; .when they talk about it
Chairman Isldor Jacobs expresses
hope of getting all three parties to unite
on one ticket, but thus far ho baa cer
tainly made no great hit with the labor
Ites. , At a recent meeting of the execu
tive committee of his league, he 1e-
claimed aa follows: "The so-called
v union labor party does not stand for
' igood government ' It stands for the
f. man In the Inaleslde Jail."
Ana expression oi iue wacoDS senti
ment has not furthered the beautiful
plan of having all the warring chefs,
not chiefs, gather around the kitchen
table and agree on a division of all the
things In the municipal larder. Jacobs
talk of having many labor union men
In his army of pledged followers of Tay
lor and District Attorney Ijingdon, but
when he called on one of his union men
to make a speech the other night the re
sponse was not what waa expected.
"I do not believe that labor unions
should take part In politics," aald the
supposed convert. "1 have alwaya stood
for good government, and I have never
voted for Srhmlts."
If the rest of the Taylor union men
are like that one Jacoba has not made
much progress In his efforts to pull
the iabor party away from ita present
leaders.

The fight for Diatrlct Attorney Iang-
don is In better shape than that of
Mayor Taylor. Lnngdon will surely be
given the Republican nomination, ana
hM a chance to land the Democratic, al
though Influential Democrats are trying
to bring about a ruaion wnn ins ior

seems improbable, la brought about.
Langdon will have to fight a combina

being made to Induce former Congress
man Jamea O. Magulre to run against
Mm hut such a race does not look good
to the "little giant" and the Indications
are that he will decide to aave his
etrength.
The Democrata are apparently in the
hands of fate. Their leaders have de
cided to do nothing until the "other
fellows' make a move. "If the Republi
cans nominate Taylor the Democrats will
have to get behind him. but If the Re
publicans name Ryan, the Democrats
will at once prepare to talk fusion with
the laborltea.
A dosen men have been mentioned as
possible candidates for mayor on a
straight union labor ticket, but only
two of the dosen, Thomas F. Eagan and
P. H. McCarthy, have any delegations
behind them. McCarthy Bays he does
not want the lob, but Eagan looks wise
and remarks, ''I am not a candidate In
the sense of seeking the nomination."
