time being defeated as a candidate
I for County Commissioner.
In the event of the Republican
nomination being given to country
candidate, Nelson f. Cool who has
been for several years a member of
the board, would stand good chance
of being the choice.
Nv
Charles f. Piper, the well-known
attorney and real estate man, is also
fayorably spoken of. 1t is doubtful
if Mr. Piper would care to enter ac-
lively into politics again, though he
was once well-known figure in Fifth
and Sixth Ward primaries.

Aid. John Brennan, of the Egh-
teenth Ward, is said to be laying his
plans for the next Senatorial cam
paign in the Ninth District. His
ambition is to represent the district
in the upper house of the Legisla
ture and be thus enabled to take a
hand in the big United States Sena-
torship struggle which already looms
up prominently on the political hori-
zon. The Alderman is a shrewd and
aggressive politician, but those who
have kept close eye on the trend of
affairs in the Eighteenth Ward
claim that owing to certain compli-
cations Mr. Brennan is hardly as
likely TO run for Senator as he was
six months ago
1t is not entirely improbable that
/ the ten sitting Democratic members
of the board will be renominated as
their own successors. The present
board has been honest and efficient,
and the interests Of the county have
not suffered in its keeping 1t is
| quite certain that some at least of
the present board will come back for
another term.

as being very good,

Daniel Cookery is at present very
busy in attending to the details for
the proper celebration of Irish day at
the Worlds Fair next Sa urday. Mr..
Corkery is in earnest in everything
he goes at, and his work in this di-
rection will undoubtedly contribute
largely to the success which will un-
questionably attend the celebration
of Irish day. Mr.. Corkery is so busi-
/ ly engaged in this and kindred mat
| ters that his frieuds are Of opinion
that he will have no time to spare for
local politics.
