TIE PASSING or THE JOURNAL.

the passing away from the ncwspa-
p"r field of the Chicago Evening Jour.
nal is an event that will be regretted by
the general public as well as by every
old-time newspaper man of Chicago. OF
fifty years standing it has had an hon.
ored existence in our midst. Sober.
s;aid and honest. it was the cxcmplH-
cation Of reliable Republican journal
ism.
Under the management of the vii
sons. the late Gov. Shuman ana W. X.
sullivan 1t had u respected and pros
porous career. Since Slason Thompson
assumed the helm II frightened M con
sidcrably as u medium of news and IL,
editorial columns became particularly
brilliant and spicy. The editor of TIL,
Eagle has pleasant memories of II,
good old Journal. the onc-time leading
newspaper of Chicago. and he joins IL
the genuine feeling of regret which pre-
walls In the ranks of newspaperdom al

test for the gubcrnatOrlal nomination
has narrowed down to three men-.IOhn

as you may choose to look ut 1t; \. j.
Hopkins, of Aurora, and Horace Clark.
OF Nation.
All the odds are In favor of Tanner,
who has back of him the tremendous in
iiuence of the Cook County machine,
led ana bosscd by Martin B. Madden
and his lleutcnants. This means the
solid vote of Cook County In the State
convention, and this, with Tanners
great personal following throughout
the State, means his nomination
That the Cook County Republican
machine II solidly In the saddle In I'LL
nols politics this time, Is demonstrated
amply by the ease and precision with
which "Doc." Jameson. one of the
most important cogs in the wheel, was
boosted into the craftsmanship of the
STATE Central Committee. The Doctor
Is an astutr politician, and loyal fol-
lower of the Madden, Lorimer, Hertz
combine, which. by the way, Is the
most powerful and influential political
combination that has ever existed. not
only in Cook County, but in Illinois.
The presence of DIR Jameson in the
chair means big things for Cook
County next year.
1t means, first and foremost, that the
first article of the offensive and defcll-
slve alliance between the Cook County
leaders ana John II. Tanner and his
friends will De carried out In the State
convention next May by the nOmina-
ton of John X. Tanner for Governor.
1t means, next, that Martin II. Madden.
or If he should refuse, any Cook Coun-
| ~ man he may name, can receive the
nomination for United States Senator
| in the State convention If he should 50
desire it, or the Republican legislative
caucus nomination If thai should be the
policy preferred. 1t means Henry l..
| HertZ's nomination for State Treasurer,
and whole lot of other things-in fact,
| It means that the slate for Illinois Is
already made up.

In each of the States of Iowa. Michi.
gan, Minnesota ana Wisconsin u census
was taken this year. The Constitution
of these various States provide for Il
census In the middle of the decade. This
count following the Federal census
taken at the beginning of each decade,
gives n census every five years. The
expense Is not great ana statistics Of
population ana material progress are
furnished which are instructive and
valuable. In these four States the
total increase of population Is about
100000 since 1890. The gain Is much
smaller than that which occurred dur
ing the scmidecade from 1885 to 500
The falling Off In the rate of increase
doubtless Is due to the fact that Euro
pean immigration has decreased, Int
more so by the fact that people migra.
ting from the East to find Western
homes have gone farther West, to the
newer States and to the Pacific coast
A striking feature of this years census
