This is not the first republic the
world has seen. They have all gone
the same road. 1t is not the enemy
pubic but it is the enemy from within
IT is the corrupter of the government:
1t is great wealth that has destroyed
every republic that ever existed on the
earth and that is eating out the bowels
our our own. Call that, II you will, q

against dishonest wealth.. a TRADE

equality of men
WAS SAME OLD CRY
Why. these men existed duriD~ the
revolutionary war When w Washington
was making the gallant fight for free
dom in this country during those eight
long years you heard the same cry
throughout this country.
And in those days there were bands
or deluded women also. who encopr-
aged the starving armies at Valley
Forge to fight for principle.
And Washington, too, was accused
OF having ambition. He wanted TO
make himself an emperor or king
IL America secured her freedom. That
and his aggregation. There was only
one way for Washington to disprove
their Infamous charges. But how
nobly he did it! A grateful people
vindicate me by making me district
attorney of San Francisco at the next
election.

is filling our courts of justice. And
will fulfill that ambition If God permits
me to live.
Heney reverted to the stolen reports,
mentioning particularly the report on
Juror Arthur, concerning which much
was said by A. A. Moore. He showed
that at the time of the Arthur Incl
dent the defense had the reports in it's
possession and that the prosecution
knew from Helms sworn statements,
already secretly made, that this was
the case. He cast the charge of unfair
dealing back full into the ranks of the
defense by calling attention to the
report on Juror Duchein, which was
also one of the stolen possessions of
the defendants attorneys. Despite the
fact that this report showed Duchein
to have absolutely set opinions and
bias against the prosecution, Heney
showed from the evidence that a siren
nous effort had been made by the de-
tense to keep him on the jury Turn
ing toward the defendant'sl attorneys
and scanning their ranks closely, Heney
exclaimed:
You ask me to tell you who saw
that bribe paid to Abe Ruef! You ask
me to show you the man? Yes. I'll
show him to you IL he's here He is
called General by you-General Ford.
1 mean. He was here yesterday, but I
don't see him now. He saw the bride
paid. He saw his own hand pass II
into the hands Of Ruef."
You can fool some OF the people
all of the time said Abraham Lincoln,
"and you can fool all the people some
of the time, but you can't fool all of
the people all of the time" But they
will not fool enough people in San
Francisco this time TO prevent the dis
trict attorneys Office from going into
hands that will drive every criminal
who is fixing juries or fixing witnesses
to the penitentiary, where he belongs,
II we can get honest juries. 1t is a
sacrifice. this ambition of mine-an-
other sacrifice
They say that Rudolph Spreckels,
Phelan and Heney wanted political SUI
the United States senatorship. 1t takes
two to make a fight; there will be no
fight; anybody can have the United
States senatorship who wants it, so
far as l am concerned.
DENIES FALSE IMPUTATIONs
They say that we wanted political
supremacy in the city and in the state.
If we wanted a control of the city,
why didn't we keep 1T when we had It?
Where is there one man who was
appointed TO office at the request of
the so called graft prosecution when
they had the power to take everything
in sight? But that is immaterial, ex-
cept from one standpoint. What does
lie duty in that way, when they are
accused by the attorneys of a defend
ant on trial-when they are accused OF
such lnfamy without so much as a

as 1t does in the case OF the thief with
the stolen goods who give false
account OF how he got hold of them.
doesn't 1t mean a guilty conscience that
Is willing to destroy everybody and
everything to keep itself out of the
penitentiary. where it belongs?
But what is Francis j. Heney doing
this law frm--with three stenogra-
phers2 What was the defendant doing
with eight attorneys back in Octo-
Der, 1906?
And Rudolph Spreckels has not paid
a dollar, as shown by this evidence,
for single hour OF work that was
done for Francis j. Heneys private
business. There was not dollar paid
Of that $4,000 that did not go into
the hands of employees who earned 1t
for the city and county of San Fran
cisco, and for the city and county of
san Francisco alone. Francis ]. He
ney not only gave his time, but sacri-
as that of any of them--the best. What
OF that? Nothing. He ought to have
done It. But what are you going to
say when the defendant comes In here,
who tries to conduct himself as BELTS
an American citizen. and permits hts
attorney TO get hlp here and spill out
such vile filth as he has spilled out
here upon our heads. Are you Ameri-
can citizens with a stroke OF manhood
In your breasts? Are you going to
submit TO 1T, and accept 1T? Are YOU
going to put the stamp OF approval
upon II by your verdict In this case?
Are you going to discourage every
young man who is growing up in this
