Politics are now almost the sole top
heard discussed on the streets, which
perhaps the best evidence OF the gener
: interest that is being excited by Il
9 present struggle.
:. The desperate plight in which IL
Q Democratic party finds itself is spu
ring the leaders on to desperate effort
Want to Break Its Force.
, They want to break the force of Il
defeat as much as possible and are d
8 ing everything toward that end. TT
Democratic candidates are no less de
8 perate than their leaders and several
t them are making a house to house ca
: vass and urging their Republican a
e quaintances to give them a comp
8 mentary vote. 1t is a dodge that h
8 been worked until it is threadbare al
d is not likely to be productive Of mu,
l. fruit.
It 1t is confidently hoped by the ma
e ayers of the Democratic campaign tn
the visit Of Candidate for Govern
l. Singerly will inject some ginger in
l. his party followers and with tn
Is thought in view his visit was fixed
'e Nov. /, just a few days before electio
+ If any enthusiasm can be worked up (
the party 1t is expected that it will n
all peter out until after the election
over. 1t remains to be seen If this po
tical absinthe frappe will be able to 9
N complish what is expected of 1t.
" In the meantime the Prohibitions
and Populists are conducting energe
* campaigns, and while they are n
y boasting that they will elect any
ID their candidates, they do claim tn
l. they will poll larger VIC
,r than ever before. Thomas oBo,
l. has declined to be the Peoples par
se candidate for sheriff. He was nor
lie mated while on a visit to Europe. WI
