Francis J. Heney has given two

his Hfe, to the task or exposing OF
fetal rottenness in San Francisco
and to bringing the guilty to pun
ishment. and not only has the pros

obstacle in his course. but the Ex-
aminer and the Calkins papers have
sought to create. and foster feel

to resent and punish this. Against

For years it has been bruited
in the streets of San Francisco that
the lives of Heney and Burns were
not worth a moments purchase il
the thugs and hirelings of the
grafters could reach them in such a
way that they could prove an alibi
and escape the scaffold Several
attempts have been made TO pro-
woke Heney into an Outburst that
would furnish an excuse for bodily
assault. Heney's impulsive tenn
perament was well known. and the
fact that he was addicted 10 vio-
lent outbreaks OF temper was
seized upon as a pretext to bring
about his undOing. Every step
taken by Heney was in the shadow

Sleeping and waking he was under
the wolfsh eyes of his enemies.
Heney knew this and consented to
the appointment of bodyguards TO
attend him during the day and
watch over his siumbers at night
But all his efforts proved fruit
less against the jackals that
haunted his steps.
The crime was the corollary Of
the conditions produced oy the
municipal debauch that has been
aired through the newspapers for
the last three years and. in the
sight of an avenging God. the

Cartoons Prompted Haas

The influence of the Mutt cartoons il
the Examiner was visible in the act ot
Morris Haas, according to the Hum
boldt Times:
1T is interesting, likewise. to
note what may have been the effect
of the long series of cartoons pub
lished by Hearst's San Francisco
Examiner; the relentless batting
of the prosecution by the San Fran
cisco Chronicle; the slander and de-
nunciation which has OOzed from
the San Francisco weeklies such as
Town Talk. Wasp. News Letter and
ArgOnaut; the TRADES OF the Oak
land Tribune and other bay press
is it strange, in view of these
things, that some one should have
been incited to slay Heney2
as it remarkable that desperate
wealth is coming to be regarded
as immune from punishment in Cal
