WILL CARRY: OUT PLEDGES
t:We proclaimed our stand from the
outset. We did not wait until the clos

veer and change around TO meet the
wave Of public opinion We made our
promises; we stood upon our platform
Through the campaign we have re-
mained true to the pledges and prom
ises and issues. If you see fit to elect
me and the other candidates on the
democratic ticket tomorrow / promise
you that the pledges made in this cam
paign will be carried out faithfully
This sees the windup of the cam
paign- 1t has been hard work. but
pleasant. Because we were fighting
for right, because we were lighting
against corruption in any form, whether
born in the dives or in the offices or
wealthy corporation, we entered into

sciences. Tomorrow register your
opinions of the situation and explain
to the country that San Francisco has
not intention of returning to Office that
class of men who once caused it to
droop it's head in shame"
