Mnn WANTS but little here

~
Man wants but little here below
But. be It understood.
No matter whether high or low.
That little must he good;
Which may explain why men of taste.
Who always get the best,
Their heads by Dunlap hats are graced
When they would be wcll.drcsscd;
For Dunlap blocks, the critics tell,
In style and texture all excel.
Mr.. Robert X. Sloan, the clean and
honest business man, who ran as m
Independent Democratic candidate for
Alderman In the Sixth Ward. Is TO be
congratulated on the magnificent show.
Ing which he made. He pOlled over
$500 votes In n ward where the worst
kind Of machine politics runs riot. and
that. without resorting In the least de-
gree to any method Of electioneerlng
but what was dictated by absolute hon
esty and business.llke self.respect. Mr..
Sloan Is man Of character and ability.

manner that he Ia possessed Of the very
endOwments that would make an eX.
cellent Alderman. The Sixth Ward will

ell. We are extremely gratihed to note
Mr.. Sloan's excellent run.

After April 90 Aid. Coughlin's "Silver
Dollar" saloon will be thing OF the
past. The Alderman found time Wed.

describing his latest suit Of clothes, "a

as purveyor of liquid refreshments was
rs an end.
II want to get out Of the saloon bust
ness" said he, land the sooner the bet

to be John j. COughlln, banker, and
away from the saloon business forever
ana day.
II want to get into society, and as
long as ] remain In the saloon business
have but little chance Of realizing my
desire. John j. COughlin, banker
would stand better show of being Chi
Cages next Mayor than would John j

Some faint suggestion has been made
that the next Republican State con
ventlon of Illinois take II upon itself Il
decide who shall be elected to the Uni
ted States Senate In 1901, In case the
Republicans have a majority of the
Legislature on joint ballot, but 1t Il
hardly possible that any such stupidity
will be seriously considered. The Re
publican party of this State will wan,
the active service In the campaign OF
1900 of all its Senatorial aspirants
from Cairo to Chicago, and there will
be no excuse whatever for thrusting
any of them aside.
