-'The effect for good Of the cf-
forts OF the Women's Heney club
in the present municipal cam
paign cannot be computed.
Neither can IL be ovcrestimated."
That is the tribute paid by F. J.
Heney, the San Francisco graft fight
err, to an organization OF over 40 San
Francisco women, which is working
quietly. steadfastly-and tirelessly to
defeat, through the election of Heney,
the crafty, organized efforts of rich
to save themselves from
criminal prosecutions through secur-
ing control of the office of district at
torney at an election next November
There is nothing hysterical nothing
notoriety-seeking about the Woman's
Heney club.
Its members represent the best in
the city's home and social life. Some
Of the members are in moderate cir
cumstances, some of them are rich,
prominent socially. Mrs. Elizabeth
Gerberding. the president. is one of
| these. Some of the women believe in
equal suffrage, some of them do not
All of them believe that Francis j.
Heney should be the next district at
torney of San Francisco.
THE issue as we see it," says Mrs.
Gerberdng, "is principle. not party
or person. We want a clean city. The
election of Mr.. Heney to the office
of district attorney will mean, we be-
lieve, clean city. The success of the
influences opposing the principle
which Mr.. Heney represents would be
a menace to every home in San Fran
CISCO. to every boy and girl growing
to manhood and womanhood within
those homes.
1--WE believe the time is coming
when voters will not allow scOun-
| drcls to grasp and hold the rcins
! of government. We believe that
women, even without q vote, can
do much toward fastening that
time. The efforts of our club,
therefore, are directed largely to.
ward securing the cooperation of
the other women. Our members,
as they can spare the time from
their homes, visit every home pos
sible in the districts assigned to
them talking with wives, mothers,
daughters and sisters, explaining
Issues, outlining our purposes and
urging them to use their influ-
ences to the end that the votes
that OOme from their individual
homes shall be cast right.
, woman has a right, a very good
and logical right to interest herself
and participate in civic affairs. That
| is the thing we are endeavoring IL
show the women of San Francisco. She
can participate right in her own home
When men do not discuss public af-
fairs with their wives, it Is because
they believe their wives do not under
stand. If woman can show she un-
derstands, the influence of her view
will go far when the men of her
household go to cast their ballots.
THAT Is the basis of our work.
We shall undoubtedly be success
