The many mistakes Swift made at Bpringfieid while senator from this district brought about a situation where somebody had to go out and unseat him and it has fallen 'tg the lot of the Waukegan young man to do this very t ing. . - SENATOR am TO " BlNI3UltD 7818 YEAR. For a young man who nave; took any active part in l politics. until last spring when he was a candidate for . mayor of Wankegan, Leslie N. George, now a candidate for state senator from this, the 8th senatorial district} is certainly making rapid progress in forming acquaint- ances over the city of Wankegan, county of Lake and" also in the counties of MeBeney and Boone. . 1 Mr. George has thrown down the gauntlet to Sena. tor Rodney Swift, the elderly tstatesman who has MTtV represented this district at Bpringfie1d in the Benatar for the past 8 years. Mr. Swift, it is recalled, was a golitienl accident, having succeeded t the toga held by A. . Olsen of 1ttBiiiiitriiliiitWrvti t-po1itfeararittmtimrmtt' in a tumult trorisieittht years ago. - _. With Senator Swift o posing the good roads pro- gram being furthered in 'lg'flll', and with his inability to assist Lake County in its desire of getting' roads be- cause of the fact that he was so entirely out of tune in gpringfletd, the fact has been apparent that Swift did more to STAND IN\,THE WAY of Lake County getting road matters adjusted than any senator representing different districts'in the state. . Further than that Swift in his record in tihrringfiehli was found opposed to various measures that could bol called progressive. He was never to be found on the RIGHT SIDE of anything. His oppositibn to the .sol~.| ditr'a bonus, to the eight hour law for women, to. the farmers' eo-operative bill and some of the other import-I ant matters of legislation, was one of the conspicuous; features of the last session. _ t l. Showing how out of tune Swift was with the' semi-l tors, it was a notable fact that whenever he started to. talk, his colleagues were either bury visiting with (each! other or immediately, left the room. m seldom had an] audience and his words passed in one ear and out the) other of all other senators. ,7 .

WM s,',,.!,?.?.,..'.!.!.'.:..,',,,, During the past eight years Lake county's repre" sentative in the state senate has been a very poor Excuse for a district of this importance. That is why the senti- merit has swept over the county and a change should be made. And Mr. George, a bustling young business, man of .Waukegan, seems to be the man who is going to bring this about. Full of pep and enthusiasm, full of ideas and possessed with a keen desire to make a name for himself, Leslie N. George is in this campaign to win"and he is GOING to win. The 8th district needs in fhrripttfield, in the Senate, a young man of Mr. George's ability and ideas. The Senateis calling for younger blood and when he goes, don'nthere to represent this district there is no question about. it but what Mr. George will make an enviable record for himself and for his district. 1 The district is large and the roads have been very bad for sometime. Accordingly the Waukegan candidate has not'heen able to get over the district as thoroughly as he had hoped for at this time in a campaign. How- ever, he has seen fit, to close up his restaurant in order that he can devote himself to the campaign and is untir- iiiirirGiiGriGi'n] car}; his message ii, ttits" people of the entireiistrjet.
