San Francisco bounded by Van Ness
avenue on the west, Jones on the East,

claims of the members of this club are not
over-estimated in the strength and in
fuence as Republican organization.

uD continuous existence in and out of
political season tends to gain for it a
recognized standing from the party man

when representation is asked for within
the bounds and limits of party lines.

Louderback need no credentials of re-
spectability and good executive Judgment
when called upon in consultation with
their fellow Republican citizens to lay
down lines upon which the success of a
campaign depends. Such are the men
who have been entrusted from time to
time with the destinies of the district in
the County Committee for a number of
years.
The present County Committeeman of
this district, A. A. Louderback, has no su-
perior in the City in political sagacity
and executive ability in party delibera-
tions and general campaign work, and his
judgment and counsel are at all times So
licited when the real issues are at stake.
