What you’re looking at

This page is primarily a directory listing candidates for the Citizens' Non-Partisan Party in San Francisco, with two portrait photographs of political figures. **The portraits show:** - **Rhodes Borden** (top), endorsed for a judicial position - **Edward Aigeltinger** (bottom), described as a Republican engaged in wood and coal business for eighteen years The extensive text explains the Citizens' Non-Partisan Party's platform emphasizing "good government" and anti-corruption, listing supervisors, school directors, and assembly candidates. The party explicitly rejects partisan politics while seeking voter support for their slate. The portraits function as endorsements of specific candidates, though without visible satirical caricature—suggesting this page combines straightforward political advocacy with directory information rather than sharp satire typical of The Wasp.
