friends are constantly urging him to
enter some political race, but he has
hitherto persistently refused. His
name IL now brought forward Us good
Republican timber for the county
judgcship, and there Is no doubt but
that II he Is nominated his candidacy
would be a strong one, and II elected
his administration Of the important
Office would be efficient and satisfac.
tory to both parties 1t Is very
doubtful, however. whether he
would accept the nomination. for his
practice is large and remunerative
one, yet the pressure being brought
to bear on him Is strong and may
overcome his inclination to refuse.

An eminent Chicago jurist recently
remarked that no city In the United
States could boast Of SO many capable
young lawyers rs are to be found at
the bar Of the Western metropolis.
1t Is fact Gray hairs 10 longer
seem to be necessary In order to In.
spirc confidence in the barrister.
Ability Is the requisite, and the
younger practitioners are generally
capable.
Charles B. Obcrmeyer stands pre-.
eminent among them. He was horn
ut Winchester, In this State, twenty.
seven years ago, and come to Chicago
In 1885, equipped with creditable
ambition and good education. Being
an expert telegrapher, and not being
possessed OF fortune, he entered the
employ Of the Western Union Tele.
graph Company and remained in
their employ until 1889, when, to the
surprise Of his friends, he announced
that the Chicago College OF Law had
found him qualified for graduation
and the Illinois Supreme Court
had granted him license to practice.
While his companions had been
spending their evenings In amuse.
ment and recreation Mr.. ODER.
meyer had taken advantage OF the
opportunities offered by the night
law school founded and guided by
Judge Moran, and the records OF that
thorough institution show that Mr..
OberMcyer was q good student and
successful worker.
A Republican from boyhood, it Is
but natural that the candidacy OF
Hampstead Washburne appealed to
him, and his work in that campaign
established his reputation as a
shrewd politician and eloquent ora.
tor. Upon Mr.. Washburne's being
inaugurated as Mayor Mr.. Obermey-
er's services were at once recognized
by appointment as first assistant city
prosecutor, and his record In that
office Is most praiseworthy.
Mr. Obermeyer Is resident OF the
Twenty.fourth Ward. He Is a man
of social qualities and o prominent

The Republican nomination for
County Treasurer Is likely to go to
Mr.. Chris Strassheim, the popular
wholesale grocer. His opponents
fear him and say he does not want IL,

retire from the contest for the Coun.

Riderburg Is the man, and he is
growing stronger every day In his
race for County Clerk. The talk Of
placing Gundc:son on the ticket as
President OF the County Board, to
satisfy the Scsndinavians, will not
be satisfactory. Mr.. Riderburg Is
very popular with all classes and his
nomination will mean success to the
Republicans. 1t Is conceded on all

No citizens have been more loyal
to republican Institutions or to the
Republican party than the Scandina-
viAns. When the foreign born voters
OF other nationalities weakened In
their allegiance and when some Of
them went over to the Democracy
the Scandinavians have rallied closer
around the Republican standard.
This has been especially the case In
Cook County, where the proportion
Of Scandinavian voters has been
steadily increasing year after year.
For nearly half a decade the Scandl.
nayian element has been the recruit.

Each year through naturalization
many Scandinavian voters have teen

enemies small town mas to contend
with writes scribe. As rule, the peo-
pie in large cities are exempt from the
attacks of this malignant species Of the
genus hobo, but in small town there is
must worry and annoyance cac sed by the

stories going abroad haye very little truth
in them and every pure minded person
should not only scorn TO repeat them.
but should consider themselves insllted
when anyone approaches with tale Of
scandal Il is vulgarity. The scandal is
