the Supervisors declared his office va
cant and elected Edward r. Taylor
dean of the Hastings College Of Law
to fill the vacancy. The Supervisors
then resigned one by one, in each
case electing a successor nominated
by the District Attorney. The seIec-
lions thus made were ratified by the
election held in the following Novem-
Der, and San Francisco was again
covered by reputable and honest off
Gals.
1t was not until October 1906, that
sufficient evidence had been unearth-

government taking the open in a gen.

ers. District Attorney Langdon ap-
pointed Francis J. Heney assistant
District Attorney on October % and
announced that Rudolph Spreckels had
already furnished and would continue
to furnish the funds necessary to en-
gage the detectives to carry on the
work. II #
The defeat of Heney in the race for
District Attorney in 1909 was due to
a number of causes. He had arrayed
against him the straight ticket of the
Union Labor party. He was fought
by every indicted interest with all the
money that could be used.
He was persona non grata to the
purveyors of vice and to all who fav-
ored a wide-open town. And finally,
owing to the strain of the long siege
in the public behalf, and the shock
of the attempted murder he was
doubtless nervous and permitted him
self to be drawn into personalities
from which his calmer judgment would
have saved him. He failed to make
clear that it was the people of the
State Of California that had been Of
Tended by the briberies and were seek
ing to establish justice IN this way
he lost honest votes that he should
have received in spite of all the OPP
position piled up against him. An
unprecedented study of the facts must
bring belief in the entire sincerity of
the prosecution and the highest ap-
probation of Heney's splendid services
and Of the results accomplished in
unmasking the real forces behind the
corruption in San Francisco's political
and commercial life.
