Two years ago Graeme Stewart, one of the best men in the state, was defeated by Harlan's friend and newspapers, the Daily News and Record-Herald.

Harlan will now retire to the shades of private lite and meditate upon his folly. Judge E. P. Dunne, "Mr. Dooley's" father was on Tuesday elected Mayor of Chicago.

Mr Dooley can now write a letter and tell what thinks of municipal ownership, the slogan which won a great victory for his father. New York Health Census.

They art- running here and running there. They arc accomplishing nothing. They first wanted Mr. Wegener to withdraw, offering him his expenses so far and the appointment of Street Commissioner; next they offered him three humlrcd dollars and the Street Commissioner's job to withdraw, but Mr. Wegeuer declined both offers.

The city health department intends, by means to secure accurate data on the sanitary conditions of the city, showing the causes of many diseases and the influence oi occupation upon the health of the people. Dr. Darling said: "I want to find out about meningitis, pneumonia, tubcrcnlo-is and other diseases. Something radical must be done.

This is the way to do it. We will be in a position to strike out from the nhouldcr." The work will cost and will be completed in four or live months. What is a "Gray Wolf." A "gray wolf" is one who fattens on the public treasury in an illegal manner. A "gray wolf" is a man. while in who collects rake-offs from persons in the employ of the city, board of education, or oilier public service.

A gray wolf would seek to put the public schools in politics in order that he may secure berths for friends in pay for political work done for him.

A gray is one who, while a member of the City Council, attempt- ing on Mr. Wegener. To withdraw is always a sign great weakness. It gives the impression that the friends of the candidate have no confidence in their leader. As soon as this becomes known there are always a large number of persons who are on the, fence waiting to jump to the side of the supposed successful candidate.

Mr. Fitzgerald might as well come off now as wait to be defeated. Mr. Bcall has the confidence and respect of the people; his position is like the rock of Cibrltar; the public reeognix.es his fitness and only a few self-seeking people like the Fitzgerald would-be leaders are dissatisfied. Mr.

Bcall is daily growing in strength, while dismay and gloom is becoming thicker daily in the camp of his followers. HOPPE'S, no W. 3rd and Belle sts. Both Phones: have handled these seeds 19 years and found them the best. PERSONAL.
