THE ElLLINOiS SENkTORSHlP.

The Cossipi Have Il That AItgsd and
Morrison Have Formed Comb ne.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The visit OF
Governor Altgeld and prominent demo
Gratis to Washington in connection with
the unveiling of the Shields statue has
given rise to considerable speculation
in regard to the coming senatorial con-
test in the state of illinois. One of The
significant events of the visi; was
call which Colonel William X. Nor
rison made on Governor Altgeld. fol-
lowed by an hours conference between
those gentlemen. Among those who
accompanied Governor Altgeld were
several friends of Colonel Morrison.
and the Illinois politicians here are dis
posed to think that the visit of Gov-
ernor Altgeld has resulted i'm COM
bination between the Altgeid and Mo-
rison forces to control the next sena-
torial contest in Illinois.
Ii is an unwritten law OF Illinois pol
itics that when both senator's are of the
same political party one shall be from
the great metropolitan city of Chicago.
IL is because Of this rule that so many
are supposed TO give publicity 10 the
rumors of combination between Alt.
geld and Morrisop; such combination,
of course, means opposition to Senator
Palmer and will have as its object the
election of Colonel William Morrison
To succeed Senator Cullom. in the event
OF the democrats controlling the next
senatorial election anu the subsequent
election OF g. vernon Altgcld to succeed
Senator Palmer IN sy7.
The pos tom of the Illinois democrats
in years ago questioning the constitu-
tional right of g..vrrnor to be elected
United States senate during the term
for winch he was -. ected as governor
precludes the possibility of Governor
Aitgcld becoming a candidate next
year.
Therefore, IL he is to become United
States senator at the expiration of his
term OF Office. II is first essential that
the United States senator to be chosen
by the legislature TO be elected next
tear shall be from the southern part OF
the state, in order that Senator Palm.
er's successor may be chosen from tae
city Of Chicago at a time when Gov
ernor Altgeld will be the logical candt

AMONG THs poor PEOPLE OF INDIA.
a Journey Among tn. Buts Where the
Poorer Glasses Live.

Poverty Is the most strising fact In
India. In the streets of the cities the
rich are rarer than in the streets OF
East London. la the country the vii
lagos consist Of buts Of almost uniform
smallness and the fields are worked by
farmers most Of whom are too poor 10
do anything but scratch the land.
In one city we went from house TO
house among the poor A common
friend gained us welcome and we
were everywhere received with cour-
tesy. Ono house which we visited
was entered directly from the street.
There was neither flooring, fireplace.
windows nor furniture. A few EN- bers
were burning on the mud floor, on
which only is il lawful for pious per-
son 10 eat, and few pots were stand
ing against the walls. With, if | re-
member rightly. one chest.
II was holiday morning, and the
family. whicn in India may include
grandfather sons, daughters-in-iaw,
and grandchildren, was gathered. The
mon had slept in the open, warm air
and had come in TO be served by the
~
few ounces Of grain aud butter. They
wore no clothes, but rose to bow US
their welcome. After the usual cour-
tesies, and when we had told them
about ourselves, the talk went thus:
"What is your trade?'
-Shoemakers."
sWhat can each worker earn?"
"About D rupees month"
"What rent do you pay"
Slight rupees month"
From which answer we gathered
that not even n paterral government
nor q system of land naturalization
can prevent the growth Of landlordism.
The ground in this case probably be-
longed 10 the state, and had been let
10 some individual at a yearly rent,

were 10 rupees month. Out OF the
