! SPRINGFIELD, ILL, Dec. 1S.-With
the near approach OF the convening of the
Legislature it becomes apparent that the
contest for a Senator to succeed General
John NJ. Palmer will be one of the most
: bitter on record in this country. The fact
is due not so much to political divisions
for the Republicans have an overwhelming
Ina ajority on Joint ballot. but rather to the
announced determination of the Chicago
machine" to force into the shoes once
worn by Lyman Trum bull, Stephen A.
: Douglass, John A. Logan and others dis
tinguished in National history an un-
: savory Chicago ward politician, Martin
!: Madden by name. The latter's only claim
TO distinction and preferment is the fact
that for years he has represented in the
City Council the Fourth Ward OF the city
;; which includes in its area portion of the
notorious levee and a big slice of the
colored slums of the city, and to the fur
':ther fact tnat as N municipal legislator he
.:has been hand and glove with the Doodle
element and has worked and voted for
:. m ost OF the measures that Have given the
::public streets to gas and street railroad
corporations without compensation to the
city.
-. Already non-partisan meetings to de-
nounce his canoidacy-a course hitherto
unprecedented in Senatorial campaigns
<:hiaye been held, one of them in his own
ward and within block of his own resi-
.dence, and every daily paper in the city
save one. and in which he has financial
interest has come out boldly against his
election. Even the staid Chicago Tribune,
which believes in party discipline above
all things, has come from cover and issued
note of warning to the machine. Mad
den's strongest competitor in his own
party is ex- Congressman William e.
. Mason. The Democrats have not yet
selected a recipient for their compli-
mentary vote.

ness of the societies and their memb bers.
A physician was secured, and several of
the societies appointed him medical ex-
aminer.

night about sixty mem bers from all parts
of the county were present. The matter

or surgeons who shall violate the pledge
taken, or physicians or surgeons who locate
in this county and who, in the face of the
opposition of the medical profession of

contrary TO the spirit and intent of said
resolutions, or physicians or surgeons who
will consult or have other professional in
tercourse with the above mentioned prac-
titloners," was unanimously passed.
