M'LsAN WiTHDRAWS FROM TIVE

The unofficial but trustworthy an
that Editor Mclean has
voluntarily withdrawn from the Sena-
torinl campaign In Ohio Is of great po-
litical Significance. II Is the result of
internal discOrd and points to the col
lapse of the silver campaign of Ohio.
The convention which nominated Chap
man for Governor on a defiant free sill

by Mclean. and the policy Of his sup

that the Legislature cannot be carried
on the silver plank OF the state plat

down in defeat shouting for the free
and unlimited coinage Of their favOritC
metal than win through cautious and
conservative policy. Mclean Is NOT

to retire without bringing humiliation

The LOAFERS SHOULD STAY
BOUNCED.

The Council passed an ordinance last
June TO take II number of minor city
offices out of the classified civil service.
The validity of that ordinance Is denied
and the Supreme Court has the matter
before It now. Undoubtedly 1t will hold
that the Council has not the power to
do what 1t has attempted to do.
Among the positions covered by this
ordinance We're those of the ward fore
men of street cleaning. These are good
places with fat pickings for men who
will keep their eyes shut while contrac'
tors are neglecting their duty. Because
of this ordinance the men who have
been appointed fOremen have not pass
cd civil service examinations, but have
been put In to satisfy the claims OF
aldermen and ward committeeman.
The result Is that the Commissioner
of Public Works has felt obliged to dis
charge five Of these men for gross neg
lect Of duty. They have drawn their

THE CITY AND PULLMAN.

The position Of what II mlscalled the
town Of Pullman II altogether anon.
nlO,is. The settlement II not divided
into lots and blocks. but II held In two
large acre tracts and so assessed. 1t Is
a position against public policy, against
the statute Of Illinois. against honesty
OF administration ana Of payment Of
the Just proportion Of the Pullman con.
Germ to the support Of government.
There are no public streets In Pullman,
yet Pullman claims ana receives the
benefit of municipal ana fire and police
protection ana health supervision. The
policemen who patrol streets that are
private property are paid by the public.
The city fire department that upon Oc-
casiOn gives Its service for the prOtec
ton OF the property Is at such time en-
tirely upon private, not upon public,
streets.
The municipality that furnishes ut
the public cost policemen to patrol this
private property also supplies water to
the sO-called town of Pullman ut 1
cents u thousand gallons and the Pull
man company retails 1t at 10 cents pei
thousand gallons ana makes from the
municipality with which II has this ex
traOrdinary contract u profit of SiO,Wt
year. The profit comes out of it,
plucked tenants. Without any author
ity from the city of Chicago the town
of Pullman, sO-called, has It's own gu,
works and the Pullman tenants also
pay an extraordinary price, far great
err than that charged by any company
holding a permit from the city to Oper
ate. The salaries of tiremen stationed
Mt Pullman are paid by the Pullman
Company, but the city pays for thu
rental of the house In which the engine
company is stationed u rental value O.
$1,000 a year. a price absolutely pre-
pOsterOus. The company refused to sci
the lot to the clty-lndeed, 1t could no
well do so, having never subdivided II
acre tracts. In addition 10 the enOrmOu
sum thus paid for rent the city Il
mulcted also by the Pullman COmpan!
for steam heating and lighting.
The Pullman Company's arrange
ment with the city Is jug-handled. 1t

SUE JOHN N. kEDZE.

Every man who Is sfugged or robbed
or otherwise maltreatcd i'm Hanton's
hell.hole should sue John II. Ecdzie OF
Evanston. the owner Of the building
where Hanton keeps.
The Eagle knows of three parties who
are about to commence suit against
Eedzie.
Kedzie has long been looked upon as
q respectable man. but he cannot es-
cape the responsibility attaching to his
ownership of the building In which
Iianton's hell-hole exists.
