Oglesby Sentiment Is Growing Steadily Cook County Residents Fightt Thompscnism, Claim Arise to Leaders "If there has been any question for two weeks about the nomination of Jahn G. Oglesby for governor it was dissipated by the registration on last Wednesday." This is the analysis of Senator C. F. Buck, campaign manager of the anti-Tammany forces, who issued a statement this week on the outlook in THlinois. Senator Buck in his statement says: Are Fully Aroused "In Chicago it was shown that citi- zens in large numbers, who during the past elections have failed to per- form their duty as citizens by taking the time to vote, are fully aroused at this time to the pressing menace of Thompsonism. "The registration of voters was un- precedented and this was particullar- ly true in the large anti-Thompson wards. The women of Chicago are likewise aroused and are going to give their first demonstration of ap- preciation of the ballot by adding their strength to this purpose. There were 127,783 women registered in Chi- cago Wednesday and it is most sig- nificant to the Oglesby cause. Unanimous for Oglesby "Quoting from one letter received from a central Illinois chairman: 'I have driven over the county in an effort to learn the sentiment and I am quite sure that the Republicans are almost unanimous for Oglesby. This is the general report from these counties as we get it. "The recent reports coming out from Chicago are to the effect that the citizens there are going to take this opportunity of shaking off the hard tribute-levying rule of the Tammany machine." STORES CLOSED MONDAY Housewives of the village are re- minded that Saturday of this week in the village will be closed all day is a big shopping day since all stores Monday, September 6, Labor Day, and there will be no deliveries.
