Excerpt from The City Club Bulletin, Vol. 3: July 1, 1909-December 31, 1910 On Wednesday, June 30, Prof. George H. Boke, professor of law in the University of California and manager of the Citizens' League of Justice of San Francisco, spoke informally before the City Club on the Graft Situation in San Francisco from the Citizen's Point of View. He dealt particularly with the methods used to influence and steer public sentiment against the graft prose cutions and with the citizens' campaign to meet these methods. The League of Justice was formed about a year ago, with the special pur pose of giving tone and vigor to public sentiment respecting civic affairs, and particularly to counter the commercial tendency to decry the graft prosecutions as harmful to business. As appears in Professor Boke's talk, it was at first necessary to keep secret the names of the supporters of this organization, aside from the executive officers. The League publishes a weekly bulletin called The Liberator and Professor John Graham Brooks close-d a six months' lecturing tour on the Pacific Coast recently by de livering before the League an address on The Nature and Price of Reform, which has since been reprinted in La F ollette's Weekly. Similar leagues have also been formed at Leland Stanford University and at the University of Cal ifornia.
