DlaTBIOT JUDICIAL lOQNVENTIONi The Republican voters of. the Sixth judicial district o! Illinois are requested to elect delegates'to a convention to be held at Rockford, 111., on ^Tuesday, the 12th day of November, 1895, at 2 o'clock JP. M., for the purpose of nominating a candidate lor the office of judge of the supreme court of Illiuois to fill the unex­ pired term of the late Hon. J. M. Bailey. The basis of representation will be one delegate for every 400 Republican votes and major portion of 400 votes cast at the election of 1894, and the counties in the district hereunder will be entitled to the following number of delegates: Boone..:... 5 Gamfll.,.. De Kalb 9 Jo Daviess.... Kane ..........,i..,...21 Kendall......... Lee 9 McHenry Ogle. 9 Rock Island..

" - tOTOn June 30,1894, there were 371, 555 member! of the Grand Army of the Republic, and on June 30, 1895, there were 357,639--a lo»s in one year of 13,916. The loss will be much larger the coming year, and it will be only a few years more until there will be no sur­ vivors of the war for the union. I®* Fox Lake, Wis., Republicans are rejoicing over the recovery of a cannon which was unearthed a few days since by Joseph Good, while digging a trench. It was stolen and buried by local Demo­ crats in 1860 to prevent the Republicans from celebrating Lincoln's election, and the disappearance remained a mystery until now. TUESDAYS ELECTIONS.' Republican Victories ALL ANONG THE FCLNE. KENTUCKY AND MARYLAND BOTH REPUBLICAN. Cook County 30,OOO Republican Majority. DEMOCRATS INQUIRING "WHERE ARE WE AT?" The result of the Elections on Tuesday was even better than the most sanguine could have hoped for. It was a clean Republican sweep, even the Bourbon strongholds, Kentucky and Maryland, swinging into the Republican column by majorities of 20,000 and over. The people have been thinking and thinking hard, and the result is more than grati­ fying. Even the democratic Eighteenth Congressional District of this Stsite elects Republican to Congress by 3,000 majority. 1 1 /•; Cook County done herself proud on this occasion. In short it wag a clean sweep air along the line. Whoop a La! I®* The following significant para graph appears in the Sycamore True Republican of Saturday last: '"'John Tanner is one of the brightest and most level-het ded Republicans in the State John knows enough to come in when it rains. John has seen that his candidacy for Governor was causing a storm of protests from all oyer the State, and his lieutenants were quietly directed to turn in and go to work for the nomination of A. J. Hopkins. Not only has John come in out of the wet, but he evidently has applied for a front seat in Mr. Hopkins' band wagon." t®" A call has been issued for the Na­ tional Republican Committee to meet in TN ashington, Dec. 10th, for the purpose of fixing a date for holding the National Republican convention next year. It is thought a majority of the committee favor an early convention, to be held not later than the first week in June. Pitts­ burg, Chicago and San Francisco are striving to get the convention, with a fair prospect of San Francisco becoming the winner. Thus far the citizens of Chicago appear to have been indifferent to the matter, perhaps owing to the fact that the city.is centrally located and well equipped for entertaining large gather­ ings, but it seems apparent that it will have to put forth some effort if the Re­ publican convention is to be held there next year. 16?" Madame Romeo, wife of the Mexi­ can minister, was asked why she took so much pains to be cordial with the poorly dressed people who attended her public receptions. She replied: "I am glad to extend a cordial reception to all, for I remember one occasion when I got a snub at a grand house, and I determined then that if anyone, even an old apple woman, should seek my hospitality she should eceive it. To be sure I never ex­ pected o be put to the test literally, as really occurred; for one afternoon glanced toward the door, and there, peering in, evidently having followed the crowd, was an apple woman--basket, little plaid shawl and all. Here was my chance to prove to myself my sincerity. So, stepping forward, I gave her as hearty a greeting as was bestowed on the most favored guest." Madame Romeo's American blood--she's a New Yorker by birth--showed up strong in that little incident. JUDGE WILLIS. I (From the Aurora Herald-Express.) An Aurora gentleman who heard Prof. Moulton's lecture on Shakespeare's Henry V, the other night, was constant­ ly reminded of Henry, of Elgin--Judge Willis of the Circuit Court. Henry V was a roistering sort of fellow as Prince of Wales, but when he succeeded to the throne loft his old life, behind and as every inch a king. So with Henry, of Elgin. As a member of the Kane county bar, merely, he was not systematic in his business methods and did not seem to possess the qualifications to make an able judge; but when once elected he turned a square corner on his old habits became remarkably punctilious in all business matters and is making a fine record on the judicial bench. It is the opinion of the lawyers of the county that Judge Willis' decisions have stood the test of the higher courts as well as those of any judge on the bench, although Willis may be said to be a young judge. His manners and attitude on the bench are characterized by vigor, common sense and a desire for justice, rather than the veneer of artificial polish. The law­ yers have learned to know that he will do exactly what he thinks right regard­ less of consequences. MEETING OF THE REPUBLICAN •• i, CENTRAL GOSE2SITTBX. -The RepublicairCentrai Committee met at the Court House, in Woodstock, on Monday, Nov.4, pursuant to call of the chairman, for the purpose of providing for the selection of ten delegates to the Judicial Convention, to convene at Rock- ford oa the 12th day of November, 1895, for the purpose of nominating a candi­ date for Judge of the Supreme Court, from tho Sixth Judicial District, in place of the late Judge Bailey, deceased. { Upon calling the rollj°6f towns it was represented that a vacancy existed in the towns of Hartland, Alden and Marengo, and T. H. Brown was recommended to fill the vacancy in Hartland, Geo. Crego for Marengo and E. SI Smith for Alden. On motion said named persons were selected to fill said vacancies. Moved by R. J.

The attorney general of Illinois has rendered an opinion that justices of the peace in all actions arising under the laws of incorporated cities, towns or vil­ lages, or of any ordinances where the amount does not exceed $200, and re­ siding anywhere in said connty, may lawfully issue a, warrant for violation of any city ordinance, no matter how many police magistrates there may be living in the city limits. The attorney general holds that where any vacancy occurs in a township board, said vacancy shall be filled by the remaining officers thereof, by appointing a person to fill the unex­ pired term. Raising: the Dispatch. * From the Harvard Independent we learn that a stock company has been formed comprised of Mayor L. A. Gard­ ner, Aldermen Rohan and Ward, Asad Udell, R. J. Marshall, Milo Munger and M. D. Roach for the purchasing, "raising »and refitting of the steam launch that went down with Father Hogan and party on the 7th of Julv. It was a diffi­ cult undertaking, as the steamer was imbedded deeply in clay in 110 feet of water. Mr. Roach, who is familiar with such work, has had his force of. men there during the past week engaged in the work. The diver who recovered the bodies last summer took the precaution to fasten a large rope to the launch and buoy it just above it; a large raft was constructed and towed out near the buoy which marked the point. Then the rope was secured to the raft and the whole T outfit tugged slowly toward the shore by a steamer. Wednesday night they had it close to the shore at Gltnwood Springs. By Thursday evening it is ex­ pected that the "Dispatch" will be com­ pletely out of water. The boat will then be thoroughly overhauled and put i to run next season." A good illustration of this most ad­ mirable judicial trait happened the other day, when lawyer Eagan, of Elgin, tried to get a divorce for James Mann. Now Mann is a brother-in-law of Potter, the famous blitter and cheese {ban, who is a bosom friend of Judge Willis. Owing to this circumstance and the additional fact that Mr. Potter was the chief wit­ ness in the case the attarney expected to railroad the case through at great speed, secure a decree for his client &nd return to Elgin. He had counted, however, without a thorough knowledge of Judge Willis' character. The case was called in due form, and the Judge, speaking to Mr. Mann's attorney, asked. "Have you secured personal service on the wife in this case? " 'Why no," said Eagan, somewhat sur1 prised; "I did not think it was neces sary.'; "Have you secured service by publica­ tion, as required by law ? " "No," said the lawyer; "we didn't think^it necessary." "How, then, have you secured ser vice?" asked the judge somewhat sternly. "May it please the Court," said Eagan a little bewildered at the turn the affair had taken--"the lady has entered ap­ pearance through her attorney, Judge Botsford.and we did not think more was necessary." Judge Willis' bosom friend was wait­ ing to be sworn and testify on behalf of his brother-in-law, but it made no differ­ ence. "That won't do in this Court," said Judge Willis. "But," expostulated the lawyer, udge Botsford is a leading member he Kane county bar. Surely that is enough." "Judge Botsford may lead the bar," was the reply, "but he does not lead this Court. We can't establish any such precedent as that in this]Court." THE BEATTJ-'IFUII ROCKIES. They Contain the Grandest Scenery and the Richest Gold Mines in the World.

He seems to have adopted for his motto the old adage that "procrastination is the thief of time." In this particulai he is a re­ markable success and is giving great sat­ isfaction to all. His plan last term was to call tho jury on the opening day, run the docket through and continue or dis­ miss every case not found ready for trial. A.s a result there are only a very few jury trials and much grumbling among th» lawyers. Tbis term he has adopted a diSerent plan, one which is working very satisfactorily. The jury was not ̂ called until the second week of the term. The first week was devoted to settling, plead­ ing and finding out just what cases were ready for trial. These were put on what is called the trial calendar and the law­ yers had until the next Monday to get ready for trial. The result is that there will be some twenty or thirty jury trials this term.
