"Smith had been given a big job and if they're to continue being REPUBLICANS, And Judge Edwards!

Now that they WANT something they were willing to take hold of hands with the circuit judge and march down on the big mission. The judge of course consented to do so just to be a good--fellow but folks who have heard about it know how he felt inside to be doing such a thing for the birds who by hook and crook for years have tried to belittle and ruin him politically and Judy told Mr. Lundin how they had been against the governor in the l;rmury but that, IF they were given some state job "EQUALLY AS GOOD 'and PAYING AS MUCH as Bill Smith of the Daily Sun was getting as a member 'of the Illinois Commerce Commission ($7,000 a year)," that they would "consent" to CONTINUE to be. . a REPUBLICAN publication; otherwise they'd feel in----= clined to SWITCH and become DEMOCRATIC boosters, ------ We'll bet that even Mr. Lundin, expert in politic¢, must have turned sick to his stomach as--he heard the sug-- gested plan even though he might have smiled seeming acquiescence to the suggestion in order to make himsel{ out & good listener. hf*" 0 .

Yes, Judy, after all Just and he had said about Len Small, had the nerve to go to Fred and make his plea and his threat to "bolt the party" in case© they weren't paid NOT to do so. : Can you beat it! : And, furthermore,s the Waukegan man whom Judy in-- duced to go down with him to see Fred Lundin was Claire Edwards, judge of the circuit court, a man whom Just and Judy have maligned for years, a jurist whom they have incessantly and relentlessly ridiculed -- personally and The emissaries you 'will note, did not go direct to the governor--they went to one of the men close in with the governor. Apparently the News part owner did not quite have the temerity after their villifitation of Len Small to broach the matter to the governor himsel{; so they went around the back way. ' In delivering the message Judy even went so far as to say that Just or Judy had to be promised something which would be E&?ALLY' as remuncrative as is the 'compensation paid editor of the Sun. And so these are the--details of the effort made by the Waukegan News to "sell out". its poligi'a sale ;which mldbcddfledtomlmlhntoc NTINUE being REPUBLICANS rather than going over to the DEMO-- CRATS. {4} §E ¥a C Aitl Well, now! After all that Just and Judy have had to say about the "Rabbit Shepherds," won't it be awful for them to hear that it has leaked out that they sent emissaries to a con-- ference recently to RENEW their plea with Governor Small that he give THEM some state patronage, this time as PAYMENT to induce them to "go along" and continue being REPUBLICANS instead of SWITCHING IN THE NIGHT to a DEMOCRATIC 6rgan. ' Lake County hasn't had a DEMOCRATIC paper in many years--and--they had their emissaries point out that they didn't WANT to establish one now but unless they were "treated right" that's exactly what MIGHT happen. It is said that the governor's lieutenant was awfully nice to the visitors; that he said he would "talk to the gov-- ernor about it," etc., but finally as usual, when Judy said he would be more than pleased if the governor would "dis-- charge the editor of the Sun" and give them HIS job, the animus they possess was so apparent that it is question-- able whether the licutenant will even ever bother the gov-- ernor with delivery of the message. Judy. Before the interview ended it's said that Judy hinted that if the governor wouldn't consent to giving them a job as big as the one they referred to, they'd" really be willing to accept one as a "rabbit shepherd," the "profession" which they have been ridiculing so profusely. -- -- _ g::'fi'doo higher now than when Just wrote Len norc tl:looo other }:b-seeking letters.
