Mr. Kahn Popular.

During my brief stay in Washington
I have discovered that our San Fran
cisco representative, Mr.. Julius Kahn
is as popular al the National Capital as
he is at home" said Mr. Emile Hirsch-
field. OF San Francisco, last night at the
Arlington.
ut is always gratifying to a constitu-
ency, especially one so far from the seat
OF government as we are out or the Pa
cifc coast. to know that the man we
elect to represent us in the national
council has good standing with his
associates. that they respect him and in
dorse our Judgment in electing him. Mr..
Kahn is very popular with everybody
in San Francisco. and l have no doubt
but that he will be returned to Con-
gress as long as he desires to run for
the office.
He certainly would II all the people
of the city believe as I do, and think a
good-sized majority of them do. He is
very much admired, even by those who
disagree with him in politics, and 1 am
very glad to learn that he is SO well
liked in Washington. He did great ser
vice for the Pacific Coast in connection
with the passage of the Chinese exclu-
sion law, and for that one fact alone ne
deserves a return to Congress, which
believe will be accorded him
