The Congressional convention was called to order at Aurora, Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock, by H.T.Rock­ well, chairman of congressional commit­ tee. Ex-Lieutenant Governor Kay, of Grundy county, was elected temporary chairman, and M. F. Walsh, of McHenry, temporary secretary, W. L Sackett, of Grundy county, assistant. This was made permanent. A committee on resolutions was named and the convention adjourned until 1:30 o'clock. , J- Upon reassembling resolutions were passed commending President McKinley, expressing infinity satisfaction in the conduct of Representative Hopkins, and the pleasure of the convention in confer­ ring upon him the well deserved honor of an eighth nomination. Resolutions were also passed com­ mending the State administration for the reform of abuse in our State institu­ tions, the passage of the primary elec­ tion and revenue lawB, and in supporting the government. Also a resolution ex­ pressing admiration for the navy, and commending the policy of the govern­ ment in maintaining a navy to uphold the honor of America. Clinton F.

Resolved, That we sympathize with and indorse the wise efforts the State administration is making to reform abuses that have existed under dem ocratic management of the State institu tions, and we commend Governor Tan ner for his action in calling the special nession of the legislature that passed the revenue bill and the primary election law, and for his prompt and patrioticsupport of the national administration in the tryine period through which we are now passing. Resolved, That the thanks of this people be tendered the American navy, whose recent achievements in the harbor at Manila, have served notice upon the nations of the earth that the yankeeboys can and will fight, upon sea as well as upon land, when the liberties of men are imperiled, and we commend the manifest policy of the national administration, which is to build up aud maintain a navy whic I will be abundantly able to uphold the dignity of the stars and stripes upon any of the waters of the earth. NEW LAW IS VOID. The senatorial reapportionment law has been declared invalid by the State Supreme Court. Its ruling to this effect was handed down by Chief Justice Phillips. The law which is declared invalid is the one passed at the recent special session of the legislature, called for that pur­ pose, among others. The cat.e was argued April 16th and taken under ad­ visement, an early decision being prom­ ised on account of the importance of the issue. The proceeding was a petition for a mandamus to compel the county clerk to receive and file the nomination papers of William Mooney, who was nominated by the democrats of Will County for the ofiice of State Senator. Under the apportionment made in 1893 Will County constituted the twenty- fifth district. The' clerk refused to file the papers for the reason that under the apportionment made in 1898 the twenty- fifth district consisted of Will and Du­ Page Counties. A petition for manda­ mus was filed and it is granted by this decision. The petitioner was represented by former Attorney General Maurice T. Maloney and his assistant, T. J. Scho- fleld, and the respondents by ex-Senator Palmar and ex-Governor Fifer, all of whom took part in the argument. The constitutional point involved arises under section 6, which provides that "The general assembly shall appor­ tion the State every ten years, beginning with the year 1871, by dividing the pop­ ulation of the State, as ascertained by the federal census, by the number 51, and the quotient shall be the ratio of representation in the senate," etc. It was urged by counsel for petitioner that the legislature must pass a reap­ portionment act after each federal census; that this was done by the legis­ lature of 1893{> after the enumeration of 1890, and that there can be no reappor­ tionment until after the next enumera­ tion in 1900. It was admitted in the argument of counsel for respondents that the legisla­ ture must observe the constitutional re­ quirements and make a reapportionment after each federal enumeration, but it The Grant Celebration at the Sta)e University. On Wedneiday, April 27, the birthday of General Grant was celebrated at the University of Illinois by the holding of a special convocation. Hon. W. F. Cal­ houn, of Danville, recently appointed a member of the Inter-State Commerce Commission, was the orator of the day. Additional .interest was given to the oc­ casion by an enthusiastic demonstration in honor of Captain Daniel D. Brush, of the United States army, row closing his detail of four years as Professor of Mili­ tary Science at the State University. As an expression of the high regard in which he is held by faculty and students, he was presented with a handsomely orna­ mented sabre. As he advanced to receive it he was enthusiastically cheered. The scene was interesting, also, as an expres- sio t of loyalty to the national army, of which he has been so honorable a repre­ sentative." Commissioner Calhoun's ad­ dress was exceedingly improe-sivc. His reference to the co-operation of theUnion any Confederate veterans in the present crisis was received with special enthu­ siasm. Everything contributed to make this, perhaps, the most interesting pa­ triotic demonstration in the history of the University. N ING W COS.
