Shall old disgraces be re-enacted in our $tate? For remember, those who had to do with the legislative scandals of recent years are bandihg together against Hull in this campaign. The men who profited by the infamous Allen Bill (granting 50-year fi anchises to the Street railways companies)--they're against Hull and for the "Peoria Combine's" man. The Lorimer Bi-Partisan organization of the Gerieral Assembly, th1 promoters of the Elevator Trust bill, the notorious "Jack-Pot" crowd, the "Bathroom" legis­ lators, the "Slush Fund" spoilsmen--those who aided, guided and profited in these scandals, are now jovially consorting to nominate Lowden. Through Lowden's candidacy they plan to regain fheu lost power and restore the "good old days" which are dark old days In the history of Illinois. Hull's nomination means their utter defeat. His 10-year record of constructive statesman Jhip deserves the support of your voice and your vote. The crisis in Illinois demands vour active attention.

Any lawyer of just ordinary ability can easily do the entire work of the State's Attorney's office and have fully one-half of his time left for recreation or other law business, and at that will not need to work nearly as hard or as many hours as do our farmers, merchant aud other laboring men. Lumley and Joslyn have evidently pooled issues against the taxpayers to com pel them, to keep pay ing $1200.00 per year for a paid assistant Statg'* Attorney which, in reality, mean9 $4800.00 of the taxpayers' money to Joslyn's soil or to Lumley's law partner, ChaHes Alien. Voters, it rests entirely with you whether you Will cut 'out a paid assistant State's Attorney and thereby save $4800.00 of the taxpayers' money, « A vote*for either-Mr. Lumley or Mr. Joslyn is surely a- tote against reducing your taxes and in favor of keeping a paid assistant State's Attorney, as Attorney Charles P.
