VICTORY IN THE AIR,

The last week of the campaign gives
tiattering Indications of democratic
victory throughout the entire state of
Illinois. One of the most aggressive
campaigns ever made in the history of
the great party Of tariff reform is draw
ing to close, and the success of the
democratic leaders in defeating the at
tempts of the republicans and political
mouopolists to obscure the issue has
convinced the voters of Illinois that the
paramount Issue to-day, just as it will
be until finally solved by the Ameri-
can people. is the great issue of tariff
reform. Upon this issue there can be
no doubt that Illinois is safely in the
democratic column. The attempts of
the republican party to stir up church
issues. to ally itself with the A. 2. A.
and other dogmatic theories, has failed
to impress the voters with respect for
that political party. and the unwilling
ness of Senator Cullom and other re-
publican leaders to answer the pointed
questions propounded by Mr.. Mac
Neagh and other democratic leaders.
serves to inspire the intelligent voter
with a feeling Of contempt for that
party which has degenerated since the
days of Lincoln and Grant into q party
OF trusts and monopolies, pelf and
plumber, into humble participant OF
the corruption fund of Pullman and
the sugar trust.
All that is necessary to insure the
overwhelming victory of the democracy
OF the state of 1llines is to get out the
full democratic vote next Tuesday.
Every democrat should be an eyanpel-
ist in the political Geld from now until
sunset on the 9th of November. and
see to it personally that every fellow
democrat in his precinct is brought to
the polls and a straight vote cast for
the entire democratic ticket. With
this duty performed by every loyal
democrat, Illinois will roll up thirty
thousand majority for the democratic
state ticket. and Franklin MacVeagh
will be the next United States senator.
Let the democrats remain at the polls
until the votes are counted.

THE NON-PARTISAN PRESS FOR
RAAB.

The popularity Of Superintendent
Raab among the editors of the state is
we'll shown by the position that is being
taken by the nonpartisan school re-
views of the country.
The following editorial from the Oc-
tober number of the Interstate School
Review" nonpartisan publication,
shows the estimate in which he is held
by the editors of Illinois:
The fall election in Illinois, this year Is a yerv
important one. The superintendent OF public
instruction of the state and q superintendent
of schools for each county as well, will be
elected. 1t is perhaps well to have the cleo
ton OF all other state ard county officers be
governed by the dominant political party But
when the Importance Of these Offices ana the
influence OF those elected is realized even the
strongest partisan sees the need OF selecting
men from some other motive than that of DO
litical preference
Hon. Henry Raab. who IS the nominee of his
party for state superintendent of schools to be
his own successor. has twice successfully filled
the Office. His first election was u protest on
the part OF the schooi-teachers Of the state
against an ignoring, by the party then in
power. OF the rights Of the Office He has
faithfully and ncceptably served the people of
Illinois. promoting the best interests OF educa-
ton in the state. His election fnsures the
same careful, efficient management OF educa-
tional affairs, and would be q matter OF con-
graduation to every school-teacher irrcspcc-
tive Of political inclinations

 He is settled over no church; but, hay ing been for long time in one parish, he has performed the marriage ceremony for two generations and baptized as many and is always asked either to tender tho last rites to the dead or at least to assist in that solemn office
 He is always very comforting to tho mourners, for the departed is sure of heaven.
 But as he grew older his prayers grew longer and so roundabout and tiresomo withal that they became almost ridiculous.
 One day the mother of a little family died suddenly, and the bereaved husband sent for their regular minister and said
