II Hard One - The "FraVelins
Brewery"
The situation in the county at the
end of another week Of the campaign
is satisfactory to the Democratic COM
mittee and the men on the Democratic
county ticket. The condition In Whlcn
the candidates of the new city nall
gang find themselves has also mao
depressing influence which is taxing
out of the EuStis campaign Whatever
of life there was in 1t. Inc coInollle
which was formed in the Republican
convention to degrade the Juolci 5tI
bench into a political machine is sun
on top. BILLY" Johnson and the irish
Bigelow-Willrich tail to the Billy
Johnson kite floats along serenely In
the ether of local Republican virtue
and responsibility. Indeed, billy IS
the whole thing. He furnishes the
brains Horace BigeloW furnishes the
money and the booze, and George irish
introduces into the combination the re-
spectabIe elements Of Republican So
ciety. who sit and watch the bunghoIe
while the amber tide Gibbs and hows;
Horace naturally has been disposed
to insist on his friends getting more
than their share of the stuff. But
Billy has his eye on the Elghtn
d,
and there are many thirsty souls IN
both these bailiwicks. The portable
brewery of this combine is according
" announced as preparing to move
early next week from the Fifth ward
over to the vicinity Of elevator B.
WILLRICH FINDS HARD SLED
DING.
WilIrich is having hard Juggling to
keep up with his associates of the COM
bine. They are getting to look on him
as a Jonah. Jaggard and his friends
are on the war path. It's a case of
dog eat dog between Jaggard and Will
rich. Percy Godfrey, who is running
Jaggards campaign, says he knows
whose dog is going to be let" and it
isn't going to be his. Elmer McDon-
aid is another West side statesman
who is taking a very decisive hand in
the business from the outside. When
the portable brewery gets around to
the West side with Bigelow and his
inspiring presence, his opponent in the
convention, whom the combine" so
ruthless1y slaughtered, will be ahead
of him. And he won't do thing to
Horace among those who recognize
Louis Pavian as the only true Moses
o. local politics.
The two really lonesome candidates
of the "cannibal convention" are Aro-
sin and Krahmer Arosin thinks him
self too good to mix with the others
and they think if he is so stuck up he
can go it alone. The Kieferverein
treats him quite coldly. There will
soon be little else for him to do but
join hands with Jaggard. Arosin may
protect himself against the sell-out
IL the First ward which the Johnson
Irish geloW-Willrich combine" is
preparing for in order to save them
selves from the fatal collapse in that
section of the Republican balloon; but
Krahmer and Jaggard will be compar-
f. y 'iSr their very existence if they
ale q <et ahead of the Aaacherous
course which the combine has map
ped out for themselves,
SEE THEIR MISTAKE.
Everybody has now come to recog-
niz . the utterly fool character Of the
poliIi - which prevented the nomina-
ton of Judge Bum in the Republican
convention. TIN fall Of Babylon won't |
be in it with the Nte of this pot-house
gang who forced partisan judicial NOM |
nations on the convention through |
the corrupt deal made Tie night be- |
fore. Decent Rep %Nicans understand |
h. and why it was done. And they |
are going to rebuke it. Bum and !
t(ichael will be the benefciaries of |
tDiS crooked convention. In no other |
way san the independent voters signify |
their contempt of those who leave the |
situation of judicial affairs to the de- |
alterations of mobs of drunken toperS |
gathered together in the purlieus of |
the city.
