IS 1T ANOTHER STOCK YARDS JOB

Alderman Tom Gahan--a good man,
but easily Observation-Disclosures an
order in the City Council on Monday,
directing the Mayor the Commissioner
of Public Works, and the Chairman of
the Committee on Fire and Water
Statesman Mike Ryan to devise ways
and means to increase the water sup
ply of the Lake district.
Lakes water supply needs increase.
But if it is increased, the principal
benefciaries will be the Stock Yards
Company and the packers.
They want the increase most. They
use enormous quantities of water.
They do not pay for it all. The
system of water inspection and meas
urement of consumption, as far as they
are concerned, is farce and fraud
Before there is any extension of the
plant in their aid, there should be a
thorough understanding as to who
shall bear the cost.
Are the taxpayers to be swindled to
benefit them?
Are they to be doubly, trebly swim
died? Their assessments are immod
erately low. Their taxes are insig-
nifcant.
Yet they demand aud they receive
more benefits from the municipal gov.
eminent than any class in the com
munity. How long is this going to b,
tolerated
| VIII Purdy, Cregier and Ryan now
devise plans for their relief at the gen
eral expense?
How long is the swindle to be KEEP
up?

FUN IN THE FOURTH DISTRICT.

There is fun ahead for the boys in
the Fourth Congressional District.
Miss Adams is coming home to open
barrel.
The boys are in luck therefore.
But whoever is nominated will have
to open another barrel.
The Democrats have a candidate
with barrel also.
That candidate is Mr.. Henry D..
Lloyd, son-in-law of the late Deacon
Bross. of the Tribune
Lloyd is rich man in his own right
with an income of $4,000 per an
mum.
He is prudent and thrifty.
He has the cash to spend to crafty
laudable ambition, therefore.
His wife is also immensely wealthy.
She will not count the cost of honors
for her husband.
Mr. Lloyd and his friends therefore
will bleed freely to win a seat in Con
gress.
i q,
The boys of the Twenty-fourth Ward
will know how to spend it for him.
His barrel must be on tap soon, OIL
Judge Tree or some other man OF
wealth may step in.
There is fun ahead for the BOYS.
Let the barrels be opened by lall
means.
/ Let the golden stream flow and the
amber one, too,
Mr.. George s. Willis, able, honest,
and upright, will knock out all the
barrel" candidates on earth, and DOM
you forget it.
He is going to get there.
He not only has money but brains
also.

the disease-breeding Stock Yards slip.
They demand that the Stock Yards
magnates and the packers shall pay
the expense of the same.
The Council of this city has virtually
declared that this shall be done by
dredging, the placing of additional
pumping works at Bridgeport or at
Brighton, and the drawing of fresh,
clear lake water through the infamous
fever-breeding slip, and sending it
thence into the canal.
Mayor Cregier and his Commissioner
of Public Works have obstructed this
feasible project.
The Canal Board has to come to
their assistance.
They say they will not take any more
than $4,000 cubic feet of water per
minute in the canal. Hence no new
pumps need be constructed.
The Stock Yards people and the
packers are therefore not compelled to
cleanse the fever-breeding slip.
They will pretend that they cannot
do it.
The atmosphere of the Bridgeport
and lake region will continue to be
poisoned Malaria will be spread, cpl
demic promoted.
Mr. Louis HUT is member of the
Canal Board. H, i 2 candidate for
County Treasurer on The Republican
ticket.
Does he think that the actions of his
Canal Board, against which he has
not protested, will help him to get
elected?
Is he in "cahoots" with Cregier and
the Stock Yards packers ring?
What does he mean?
Is it his policy to kill off Democrats
in Lake and Bridgeport to insure his
, electiQn2
This dastardlg intrigue between
Office holders and rich ringsters will
not be tolerated
Mr.. Hutt must face the music. Sc
must Mayor Cregier.
The Stock Yards rich ringsters vii
have to abate the nuisance which they
have created.
What Alderman will take hold o
this matter in the Council?

By virtue of an ancient law that still
holds good in Paris, the owner of a
house that stands vacant is not com
PEELED to pay any taxes on it at all, a
fact that causes the landlords to be very
inhexible in their dealings with tenants.
An unfinished fiat is never let by the
year. 1t must be taken for full three
years, the lease running for three, six
or nine years, at the option of the land
lord and the tenant if both be agreed.
That IS to say, at the end of the first
three years the landlord can move ont
the tenant, or the tenant can give no.
tice Of his or her departure, but if
that formality is not gone through with
three months before the end Of the
term, both parties are bound for an.
other three years. The tenant has Ia

REPUBLICAN, SCHEMING.

There is row in the Republican
camp.
The Springfield regency, through its
agent, W, J, Campbell, has devised
d scheme by which delegates to the
State convention on the oath prox.
shall be selected by Senatorial dis
tricts
This means that there will be no
county convention.
1t means more than that. 1t means
that the Springfield regency wants to
control the State Committeeman from
Cook County,
Campbells plan is to capture the
Senatorial conventions in detail, to fix
the delegations.
When the latter are fixed, then
Campbell committeeman will be Sc
lected
That means that Illinois in 1892 will
be "agin the Constable in the White
House." as the Republicans here call
Ben Harrison.
1t means that they will be "agin Bob
Lincoln"
1t means that Shelby NJ. Cullom
will be candidate for President, not
seriously, but to break down Ben, and
to keep the State in reserve for Algel
or the dark horse.
A beautiful plan, you see. 1t i;
worthy of the Springfield regency ant
that astute statesman" William J
Campbell.
As the boys say, it is great.
And then there is another purpos,
behind it all.
The calling of the Senatorial con
.vention so early is intended to secur,
the election of Farwell men, and Far
well men only, in Cook County. Should
Farweli through ill-health or for othe
causes decline to be a candidate Will
lam j. Campbell might sacrifice him
self.
Why not?
Is not Campbell young and ambi
tious?
Is he not a corporation lawyer?
Why should not Phil Armour and tn
Stock Yards have a member Of tn
American House Of Lords?
Gould has many
Sanford has two.
Vanderbilt has some.
Why not Armour?
In the early conventions Campbell
or Farwell men will be selected.

In Chicago Bush and His Con-

Their Work.
But the Day of Retribution for

Public sentiment against the Louisi-

ever it was In Chicago it is growing
stronger every hour. There can be no
doubt about this fact at ALL
Goodby, lottery.
From the New Orleans New Delta, May IA $780,
1t has been whispered about in
quiet way this morning that the
lottery programme to reorganize has
not been entirely abandoned, and that
just so soon as the necessary two-t thirds
has been secured this step will be
taken in order to facilitate the work of
turning the State over to this gigantic
monopoly. The Delta has been track
ing this rumor, but so far the lottery
managers have kept their counsels very
close, and their friends profess to be
ignorant of any such move.
Be that as it may, should the two
thirds be gained that move will be
made. But in the event that the lot
terry fails TO secure the constitutional
majority the lottery measure will be
abandoned for this session, and the lot
terry men will enter into the next State
campaign with vigorous step and o
full hand" to elect two-thirds Of the
next Legislature. This now appears
to be the last hope, as there appears to
be no doubt they are beaten in the
General Assembly. A representative
who is taking an active inter
est in this matter, sustains
the opinion telegraphed the Delta
yesterday, that the lottery people will
pot attempt to bring the matter up
until they have secured two-thirds of
the House, and says that they will not
be able to take it up this session if
they do they will be beaten. Lottery
men themselves claim 25 Senators and
admit that there are y Representa-
tives who will not vote lottery
amendment. The anti-lottery people
claim thirty seven solid Represents
tives, who will be supported by several
who do not care to commit themselves
openly. Thus you see both sides agree
pretty well upon figures.
