In his veto Mr.. Hopkins clearly
pointed out the outrageous chara ter

be said that though nearly all Of

against George, Edmund Foss In the
Seventh Congressional District. The
signature he Is exhibiting to the pc.
tition asking him to be candidate
as the signature Of Mr.. FOss is that
OF Mr.. Foss' father. There Is no ex.
cuse for making the mistake unless
General Hamilton confesses to igno.
rance of the persons who have signed
his petition. The elder Foss always
signs his name Geo. L, Foss," the
younger "GeO. Edmund FOss." There
Is no resemblance whatever In Their
signatures. Evidently General Ham.

The Mayor did his whole duty, and

these tactics were played upon me

to deal with King. We told other
San Francisco booksellers about 1t,

REAL ESTATE SHARKS SNAP But
CAN'T BITE.

Some days ago, few individuals

executives Of the city and of the
State. to befOul the good name OF the
city, and spread abroad u most lying,
misleading, and slanderous reprcscn.
tation Of the conditions prevailing In
this city during the recent strike.
They declared that the Mayor had
not done his duty In supprcssing riot
and disorder, and was therefore a
demagogue: that the Governor was
an anarchist, had failed to perform
his duty In regard to the calling out
Of State troops, and had unwarrant.
ably attacke1 the President for doing
his. They wound up by giving the i'm.
preston that the city was In the grip
OF anarchists, rioters, and murderers;
that arson stalked through the
streets, that the pavcments ran
blood, and that, in fact, no law.
abiding man could safely come here
to invest his money or to make a liv.
Ing.
Now the utteranccs of the stupid
and malicious fOois--for men who
could make such statements In view
OF the facts must be both-wOuld not
be worth noticing II 1t were not for
the publicity given them by the Re.
publican press. They were printed
under glarlng head lines and upon
front pages, and were, no doubt, duly
transferred into the columns OF the
press OF New York and other cities
whose interest 1t has always been to
belittle, belle, and misrepresent the
city OF Chicago. Now, Us u matter
OF fact, there has been no reign of ter.
rOr In Chicago during the great strike.
For a movement OF such magnitude
1t has been comparatively peaceful.
There has been In years gone by more
rloting IN connection with single
street car strike than In connection
with the vast Debs strike. There
has been no disorder on the streets OF
Chicago. A few mObs were dispersed
at railroad crossings and some blood
was spilled, owing to the hasty, i'll.
tempered action OF a few young
milltiamcn.
The authorities, State, national,
and municipal, have been In control
right along. The law has been
maintained and life and property
protected.
AS for Mayor Hopkins, his
C nduct throughout this trying
ordeal has been commended by
every thinking citizen. He acted
with coolness. good judgment,
and always promptly and effectively.

CAMPAIGN LIE MAILED.

The action Of the County Central
Executive Committee In promptly
squelching the lying attacks Of the
Republican pres, upon Aid. John Nc.
0illcn was well timed and deserving
Of the most hearty commentator.
The attack was most malicious. and
peculiarly mean and sneaking in its
character us we'll rs In its inception.
The malice was evident from the
covert innucndocs thrown out against
the Alderman, while the meanness OF
IL lay In the fact that 1t was made at
a time when temporary ill.health had
compelled the absence of Mr.. McGil.
len from the city.
There Is, perhaps. no man In the
ranks OF the lo"al Democracy more
feared and hated by his political foes
than honest John McGillcn.
Bright, gifted, Of high order of
intelligence and with great personal
courage, he has proven himself more
than a match for the shrewdest and
aclest OF the leaders of Republicanism
In Cook County. Treating the carping
criticism OF corrupt and venal parti.
san press with the most supreme con-
tempt, he has gone about his duties

determination, sagaclty, prudence

considered his duty.

class Of moral as well as physical
courage.
