A penalty of $150 attends every violation. Over­ worked railroad men always invites rail­ road disasters. A. C. Fassett, Chairman of the Sen- atonal Committee of this District, was in Chicago last Saturday, conferring with the other members of the committee, and It was decided to call the Senatorial Con­ vention soon after the Congressional Con­ vention, about the first of May, so that the County conventions could elect dele- K»tes to both Congressional and Sena- : tOrial conventions at the same time. ^ : tSTAn occassional election with its attendant discussion and excitements neems to be an essential element in our American life. It serves to keep alive and aetivethe important idea that the peopU are the sovereigns and have charge of the government in all minor as in all great aBau-s. Life would be dull and monotonous and woald have little mean- ' ing if an election did not come now and then to aronse our pride and patrio- taem. MT*The call lor the Republican County Convention ean be found at the head of this column, by reference to which it will be seen that the Convention has been cal­ led to meet on Tuesday, the 29th inet. "We had intended making this week a gen­ eral mention of the different candidates vbo will present their names to that Con­ vention, but time and space will not per­ mit, but we shall do so next week, and discuss the matter as we see it from our tttandpoint. . • =•* M^The Springfield Daily News pays the following deserved compliment to Hon. A. J. Hopkins. Member of Con­ gress from this district: *Hon. A. J. Hopkins, one of the Illinois members of the House, is a credit to the entire state. The News hopes in th« in­ terest of the entire state, he will be re­ jected. He is now occupying a. high position, as a mail of intellect and logi­ cal force. Morally and socially he is every inch a man. I^e is close to the people and will be able to do good work tor them." The News gets at the facts in tew words. (6r*A farmer emerged from a store with a new snit of clothes. He met a Demo­ crat and said: See here, ain't you the chap that talked to us farmers out at our burg Iawt fall ? Yes, answered the Democrat. Well, said he, look at them clothes. I paid #8 for coat, pants and vest, and fifty cents for the hat. Now it strikes me if the farmer got anything for his wool, the tailor for his work and the merchant for his time, I hain't paid much of a tax to" the support of any robber baron. . BaT There may be honest democrats in this country, but it is a fact that in seven democratic states namely, Tennessee, Missouri, Mississippi, Louisiana, Ken­ tucky, Arkansas and Alabama, the state treasurers have robbed the treasuries within the past two years. Does Illinois feel like being placed it the democratic eolumn ? I®" The objection raised to holding the Congressional Convention May 1st. be­ cause the farmers at that time will be busy seeding, will not "bear scrutiny This date comes between sowing and planting. Besides with improved machinery the farmers can spare a little time then to attend to public duties quite as well as they can later. The busiest time is later when the farmers are work ing their corn and haying and harvest ing always crowds upon them after this The necessity of an early convention is apparent. The fight will be a hard one with a certainty of victory if properly conducted. Democrats are already or­ ganizing and Republicans must not wait for flimsy reasons. The sentiment ot the leading Republicans is almost unanimous for the convention as early os the date fixed. CHICAGO MERCHANT TAILORS Have received from E.
