DUNNE PRAISES HENEY
Says Prosecution Is on Stronger
Footing Than Ever Before

Los ANGELES, April 2-Superior
Judge Frank III. Dunno of San Fran
cisco, before whom various proceed
sings In the bribery and graft investi-
cation have been had left today for
New Orleans, whence he will travel to
Washington. In the course of an in
terview given to a representative of
the Express Judge Dunno took occa-
sion today to commend the course of
Assistant District Attorney Francis J.
Heney and expressed decided views
concerning the graft cases an dthe i'm
munity contract alleged to have been
entered into by the prosecution with
Abraham Ruef. Judge Dunno is quoted
as follows:
In my opinion. the prosecution in those cases
In spite OF the reverses which 1t apparently has
suffered. Is on stronger footing technically at
least, than ever before. The friends of good
government have every reason to feel encoura red
with the results achieved.
Mr.. Heney may possibly have made some mis-
takes, as has been charged but the fact rena ins
that 1t is largely due to his aggressive efforts
that San Francisco. which for six years was by
all odds the worst governed city in the country,
has been transformed into one OF the best.
Mr.. Heney has demonstrated that it is possible
to convict rich of crime and put him
in jail.
In spite of the criticism and abuses heaped
upon Heney and his associates, the sentiment of
the people of San Francisco is with the prosecu-
ton The feeling up there is general that both
Schmitz and Ruef are guilty of the crimes
charged against them and that both should be
punished.
OF course the ruling of the appellate court in
these cases was disappointing. and apparently
setback, but whatever the immediate effect of
that ruling may be. believe the ultimate effect
aga inst certain conditions which now prevail
will bring about complete change for the better.

Max TheIan Tells of Great
Work of the | eaoue

OAKLAND, April ITO win this
battle for civic decency and the throt-
ting of the Southern Pacific's political
control in California you must go to
the polls and primaries and vote for the
Lincoln Roosevelt league delegates to
our conven tions," said Max Thelan,
secretary of the fifty-second district
league, tonight at a meeting at Roses
hall, Sixtieth and Adeline streets
James II. Boyer, presided. Edmund
Nelson, secretary of the North Oakland
branch, reported that the five precincts
of the f1fty-second district there repre-
sented had enrolled a large member
ship He said that the fight against
the Southern Pacific machine was on to
finish, and he urged men to register
at once and to vote at the primaries
In the course of a stirring address.
Thelan said:

Los Angeles decided to elect clean untram-
meled city council there they formed the be-
moyement-the Lincoln Roosevelt republican

the bigger fight Of driving out of the republi-

party is controlled by corrupt politicians, after

not doubt that the men who supposed to
represent the people follow the dsatOn Of

machine, such scientists have not been able
10 realize after study and experiment.
Thelan traced the course of the or
ganization of state conventions which
the machine dominated. He showed
that the executive committee of the
party appointed the convention tenn
porary chairman, who was always
named permanent chairman. 1t named
the executive committee which again
appointed the temporary chairman, and
so on ad infinitum. The cog in the
chain to be broken by the league was
that of temporary chairman, explained
Thelan. The league in control of the
convention would name its own perma-
nent chairman, and thus it would gain
control of the executive COMMITTEES OF
the party, driving the machine out of
power.
ITO win this battle we must go n
the primaries and elect our delegates
to the convention" emphasized Thelan.

PROH|B|T|ONISTS
 WILL CONTEST
Claim That Lonoke County Negroes Were Voted In
 Pulaski County.

Little Rock, Sept. Is. Nothing is talked today but the election of yesterday and the Prohibition ists are getting ready to file all sorts of charges of illegal voting in Pulaski county, which, when the votes are all counted. will be overwhelmingly wet. The Pro- hibitionists claim that Lonoke county negroes, as soon as the poll tax requirement was remov- ed, were imported to vote for liquor in the different wards of Arsenta; that negroes in great droves were illegally voted in the different wards of Little Rock,
 and that in other wards Pro- hibition voters were shut off for not having poll tax receipts, Rev.
 Swift, of the Asbury Methodist Church, was one who suffered in this manner. The Republicans are also up in a great hue and cry because of the removal of the poll tax restriction, which they worked so hard for. did not work entirely to their satisfaction. It brought the negro to the polls all right, but when they got tl,ere they did not vote the Republican ticket. simply scratching the anti license portion of the ticket and walking out of the booth, Had the negroes voted the straight Republican ticket there is no doubt but that they would have elected at leas, one of their candi. dates. Reports from over the state indicate gain in the license side, some counties going wet which have been dry for several years. Several wards of Little Rock went for prohibition; but the whisky vote in the Sixth Ward, where over 900 ballots were cast, more than evened up for what the Prohibitionists made in the other wards. The day was entirely. void of incident. and there was no clash between the Republicans, Democrats or Pro- hibitionists, even though the vot- ing was the heaviest ever known in Little Rock. At every booth workers in the prohibition cause were stationed nearby, and the names of all questionable voters were taken, besides a registry kept as near as possible of all those who voted for no license.
 These will be used in a purge of

 There is always some reason for success. In this age of com mercialism everything must have some real merit in it to be a last ing success. Anything must be worth one's time and money or the public will soon relegate it to the rubbish pile. This is as true of plays as of everything else. They must be real, sterling, sound and solid value to have . long continued success. The ever growing triumph of Clarence Bennett's The Holy City, which has so completely distanced all other religious plays and has 50 endeared itself to the American theatre-going public, tells its own story of the triumph of real merit and true worth.
