THE COUNTY RING AND TIlE DEMOCRATS.
There is awide-spread apprehension among
the business men and taxpayers Of this city
that MI efforts will fail in tho Legislature to
secure reorganization Of tho present
County Board. II there bo failure to &C.
cure relief in any form, then it will be ewing
to the opposition Of tho Democratic me,u-
bers Of the Legislature, on the ground tl4at
the present County Board is Democratic and
exercises political power, tho sacrifice Of
which must not be riaked by authorizing the
election Of an entire new Board. This Is the
argument which GooDxL1, the agent and
lobbyist for tho Hing, has been urging At
Springfield. Contemplating tho possibility
Of such m outcome to all the efforts made by
tas people Of Chicago and Cook County to
get rid Of tho Ring, We ask tho Democratic
party Of Illinois whether It can afford
to saddle Itself with tho responsibility
for the Cook County Ring7 THIS il
precisely what will happen 1t erory bill for
relief shall be defeated 1t Springfield by
Democratic votes. Up to this time we have
mover tns'ssed upon holding tho Democratic
party to account for tho Ring, for We know

for Its abolition as tho Republicans. Dnt

of tho Republican party which should not
