While many issues of local impor-
tance entered into the campaign, the
continuance of the graft prosecutions
which has centered national interest
on San Francisco and brought about
civic division of sentiment that has
obliterated all party lines, was the
dominant one. Mr.. Heney went be-
fore the people frankly on this one
issue, appealing for vindication by
election of his course in the trials
growing out of the exposures of
municipal corruption in the so-called
"boodling board" of supervisors.
He promised from the stump that
If elected he would carry on the graft
prosecutions with unbating vigor.

statement from the stump that If

ponents as meaning that he would
stand for return to the "wide-open
town" and the evils of the notorious
davs of Schmitz and Ruef and their
adherents. This Mccarthy has stout
