A Vote for Julius Kahn Is cisco, the Exposition City Julius Kahn must be re-elected to congress. Every Californian who wants the exposition in 1915 held in San Francisco demands his re-election. ". Xew Orleans would hail his defeat with joy. To beat Julius Kahn would make San Francisco the laughing i stock of congress, for he is the very man who has led^our, fight— who has worked night and day with all the force and power at his^ command to secure congressional indorsement for San- Francisco,] the exposition city. • j Julius Kahn has been a member of congress for nearly lOyears. ! He, knows, all of the members — knows them well— has done favors for them and has been favored by them. "i^ His vast congressional experience enables him. to know-e xactly what to do and when to do it. He introduced the resolution asking congress to indorse San Francisco as the exposition city. He has made t the fight for San Francisco and is familiar with every detail and he should x be returned to congress to complete the great work he has so well started. Newly Elected Congressman Powerless to Help Exposition The newly elected congressmen do not take their seats until March 4, 1911— too late to be of any use in the exposition matter. The present congressmen decide whether San Francisco of New Orleans shall be the exposition city in the short session of congress which convenes in December. Tliis is no time for partisanship— -\t is the, time when every San Franciscan should be united for San Francisco's good. v % .. \u25a0 • Congressional Indorsement* Means a $50,000,000 Exposition Congressional indorsement of San Francisco's claims means a $50,000,000 exposition for San Francisco — it means a business and a building boom of tremendous proportions — it means success, pros- perity and progress. *-» Every class and every business in San Francisco will fe.el the benefit trie day congress gives San Francisco permission to invite foreign nations to participate in an exposition in 1915. This city can no more afford the humiliation of Julus Kahn's defeat than it can afford to lose congressional indorsement. Both are essential and go together. A vote for Julius Kahn is many votes for San Francisco, the Lay aside your prejudices. Work for the city — vote fsr Julius Kahn. Every San Franciscan Should Be Proud of Julius Kahn's Splendid Record of Results Julius Kahn^has been an^able, energetic and successful con- He has served his constituents with the zeal, intelligence and earnestness which/has made him valuable to San Francisco in the Through his indefatigable work, his perseverance/his ability and diplomacy, he has secured for San Francisco the following appro- priations during his term in office : - ' California stone and ornamentation for new postoffice building -. .\u25ba. $300,000, For the new custom house 1 . 1,750,000 Xew transport dock at Fort Mason. 1,500,000 Xew subtreasury site and building. 885,000 Xew barracks and quarters, Presidio .— 550,000 Lighthouse on Mile rock .' 100.000 ' Lighthouse on Southampton shoals..-. x 20.000 Angel island immigration station . -. . 300,000 X T ew military, prison, Alcatraz i51and. . . . . . .'. 300,000 Destruction of Arch and Shag rocks out of the ~ ; bay of San Francisco 400,000 .
