Petition Of Citizens Of San Francisco For The Repeal Of The Mortgage Tax Law Resolved, That we, working men of the City and County of San Francisco, in mass meeting assembled, do most respectively petition in your honorable body to repeal the law taxing debts secured by mortgage, as it works oppressively upon the poor, and we feel that the action of the Assembly was unjust, undemocratic and unfriendly to the people of the city and county, whose votes secured the triumph of the party which has thus shown its disregard for them, their interest and their opinions. Resolved, That we pledge ourselves to take such action at the next election as will convince politicians that we can judge of parties and individuals by their acts, and that noisy and insincere professions of devotion to the interest of working classes will not deceive them again. Resolved further, That the thanks of this meeting are hereby tendered to those members of the Assembly who endeavored to have justice done on the location referred to.

R. Korwin Piotrowski wrote: There was an artist here Wienawski,26 a violinist, I was very happy with both his talent and his technique, he didn’t make a lot of money because he managed things badly, but justice here has given him better now than it has to the pianist Wołowski27 but he only gives lessons. The artists who come here ought to inquire beforehand into the customs and habits in California.
