Altgeld And The Press.

Daily Item.
Atgeld's abuse of the newspapers
is as the yelping of a wounded
brute. He has been hit hard by
them, and he cries with pain and
for vengeance.
In his message, this Anarchis-
tic, murder-pardoning, Bombastes
Furiceo Governor, after rolling
the press, recommends that a law
be passed to restrict newspaper
criticism of public men.
Of course, public men of the
Altgeld type would greatly enjoy
muzzling the press. They fear it.
They know that as long as it is
free to speak, they will be held up
in their true colors, and this is
precisely what they do not desire.
They wish to have full staw in all
matters and be subject to no crit.
cism for anything they may do, nc
matter how outrageous it be.
Fortunately, Mr.. Altgeld and
others of his kidney cannot have
their way in this sort of thing
They may consider themselves big
men, but the world is bigger, and
they will have to bow their headt
before it.
One of the blessings of the las
campaign was the defeat of Alt
geld. He retires from the guber
Material chair with the respect o.
no one but his immediate follow
ing and it is doubtful if he hal
that, though outwarly this may ap
pear to be the case. A lucky thinl
for Illinois, this getting rid o
such a Governor. May public lif'
know him no more.
