OUR REPRLsENTATIVE NAME Is
IRWIN.
A special dispatch from Springfield t

special dispatch from Springfield TO
the Chicago Tribune OF a late date said:
"The revenue committee reported ia
vorably on Mr.. Twins bill providing for
a replacement of taxes levied on property
destroyed by fire, food or tornado"
Now here is thing that we wish to
protest against. We notice that the
Chicago Tribune and many other papers
that like the Tribune ought to know bet
ter, invariably give to the representative
from Alexander county name not his
own. And they do not stick 10 one
name-they vary IL. Sometimes
they spell it "lrwin,' as it is in
the dispatch quoted, sometimes
ERWIN and again "Irving." Posi-
bly, the Tribune correspondent is
like the late lamente! Commodore VAN
derbit who always began his name with
"we' because he couldn't pronounce
the initial letter differently. The elder
Weller, 1t will be remembered, was
afflicted with like disability as
was demonstrated on that memoir
dDlO oNNdFiou iN WIN SOh.
"Spell it with We Sammy, spell 1t
with We" But the telegraph wires
are not supposed to be afflicted with any
such organic incapacity. and If our repre-
sentative's name is written rightly there is
no reason why it should not be trans
mitted correctly and appear prop
erly in the public prints. When Mr.. IT.
vim introduces an important bill into the
general assembly as he has on several
occasions already done and will do in
the future, we want tS see the credit
given to him and not to Mr.. "Irwin"
or Mr.. Erwin" or Mr.. "Irvisg," but
TO the Hon. A. ii. irwin, Irwin, Irwin,
a gentleman whs has spent labor and
time enough in the interest OF the public
to entitle him to his right name from one
end OF the state to the other.
