[Advertisement.] There will surely be a Roosevelt landslide in Illinois on Tuesday next. Theodore Roosevelt will carry Illinois over both Taft and Wilson by at least 100,000 majority, and it now seems cer­ tain that Senator Frank H. Funk and the entire state Progressive ticket will be elected by a large majority. Roosevelt stands better than an even chance of also winning for president over both Wilson and Taft. No one man in this state has'done more in this campaign for Theodore Roosevelt and the Progressive cause than our able, fearless add progressive congressman, Ira C. Copley. Mr. Copley estimates the vote in this congressional district on presi­ dential candidates on next Tuesday as follows: Roosevelt 25,000 Wilson 15,000 Taft *9,000 Please remember that. Congress 111 a 11 Copley was endorsed for re-election by the Progressive party, and our state chairman, Col. Chauncey Dewey, asks that every Progressive voter in this county and in this congressional dis­ trict be sure to put a cross in the square opposite the name of Ira C Copley, where it will appear in the Republican ticket, after first putting a cross in the circle where it will ap­ pear at the head of thfe Roosevelt or Progressive ticket.
