REPEAL THE WAREHOUSE LAW.

Among the laws passed by the FOrtI.
eth General Assembly was one permit.
ting public warehOusemen TO deal In
grain on their own account. Such deal
ing on the part Of wnrehOusemen had
been declared by Judge Tuley, In IN
important decision, 10 be contrary to
public policy. Before the case could be
passed upon by the Supreme Court the
elevator men had the law enacted. The
measure thus permitted them to do
what the lower courts said they ought
not to do. Among the prominent sup
porters of the bill was Lloyd j. Smith,
the manager of the elevator which has
been made to figure In u scandal ns Il
result of the practice of permitting
warchOusemen To deal In grain.
a law which permits public ware
hOusemen to deal In grain on their own
account. ana to mix their own grain
with that of their customers, Is objcc-
tionablc In principle. II Is contrary To
wise public policy, rs Judge Tuley cor
rectly held prior TO the passage of the
act legnlizing the practice. The law
ought to be repealed by the Legislature
at Its next session.

COOK COUNIY'S CHOCE.
dam Ortseifen for Goveruor,

Adam Ortseifen for Governor!
The Democrats of Cook County have
found a leader who Is good for fifty
thousand majority In Chicago alone.
They have picked out for the high POI
sitlon of Governor Of Illinois one of the
cleanest, brightest, ablest and most
high.minded young business men In the
State.
Mr.. Ortseifen's candidacy was brought
about by members of the great Ger.
man-American nationality. who hold
the balance of power in Illinois.
The Gerinan-Americans threw the
State TO the Republicans in 1860, be-
cause the Republicans at that day, act.
ing under the advice of Abraham Lin.
coin. who was delegate to their State
Convention, adopted a liberal platform
and nominated n German, Francis 4.
Hoffman,, Of Cook County, for Lieu
tenant Governor.
F., In 1892 the Republicans ignored the
German. Americans OH their State
ticket, and adopted an illiberal and re-
dictionary State platform.
lie Democrats took advantage OF
this mistake and nominated u German.
American. John T.. Altgeld. for Cover.
nor, upon liberal platform, and he
was elected.
This year the Republicans Of Illinois
slapped the GerMan.Amerlcan element
In the face and did not nominate man
Of German blood descent. connection
or lineage for any office on the State
ticket.
The platform itself Is an insult to the
German.Amerlcan people, filled rs it Is
with llliberal platItudes.
4 resolution Of sympathy for the
struggling Boer republics was contemp-
tGously voted down.
Everything appealing in any way to
German American sentiment was
thrown ont of the convention.
These facts have appealed strongly
TO the German Americans Of Illinois,
and almost TO man they resent the
slight put upon them by the Republi-
cans.
The Democrats will profit by the Re
publican mistakes.

JOHN p. M'0OOR1Y.

While the Hon. John +. McGoOrty IL
an excellent lawyer. who has a large
and rapidly increasing practice, yet
fate has dccrecd that he should be bet
ter known to the people of Chicago as
II member of the last General Assem-
bly,. He has himself to thank for this.
though his ambition Is said TO be only
for cmiDcnce at the bar His course in
the Legislature of 1897 had stamped
him rs good. reliable man. but his
brilliant services in the Legislature of
1870 have cndearcd him to the people
of this city.
John i. McGoorty was born In Ash
tnbula. Ohio. in 1856. In 1870 the fam
lily moved to Berlin. Wis. where he
graduated from the high school. In
1890 he entered the law department of
the Lake Forest University and was
admittedtO practice In Chicago I'm 1872.
In 1875 he was defeated for Alderman
In the Thirty-fourth Ward by a few
votes. running more than 1000 votes
ahead of the Democratic ticket. In
1896 he was elected from the Third
Senatorial District TO the lower house
of the General Assembly. His record
was excellent and he returned with the
respect of the entire community. Re
elected In 1893. he was the Democratic
caucus nominee for Speaker. thus be.
coming leader of the minority. How
well he handled that minority mas he.
come u bright page In Illinois history.
There have been few more bitter fights
than that made by the Democratic mi
nOrity under Mr.. McGOOrty's leadership
against Speaker Sllcrman's refusal to
permit roll call and finally the Speak.
pr was forced to yield. Another hard
fight was necessary to force the com.
mittee 10 report back favOrably the bill
repeating the Allen law. All through,
these fights John l.. McGOOrty was well
tn the front, and no man did more to
bring about that reepal than he. lie
forced through the House his bill for
the public ownership Of utilities. which
measure was pigeOn-holed In the SEN
ate. 1t was his decisive action that
caused the Democratic members to eau.
Gus on and defeat the Berry bill design
ell for the protection Of trusts. 1t may
he said that he always voted right.
John +. Mct;oorty deserves well of Chi.
cagO ana the Democratic party. and
both will remember him at the proper
time. Mr.. McGoorty Is a member Of
the Illinois state Bar Association. one
of the Vice Presidents of the 1roquois
Club AMI u member of several social
organizations. He was married to Miss
Mary Virgins. of Chicago. In Novem-

JOhn IL. KrhOe was born In Wavprly,

cases. Probably the wOst widely known
of all these cases was the famous L,,et-
CERT case. where he was one of the at.

Ills speech to the jury was universally
considered very able effort. ana Is re-
membered ~ one Of the great features

United States SenatOrship. Upon his
removal to Chicago In 1893 he could not
entirely keep out of politics, ana his
splendid speeches for william Jennings

appointment as West Town Attorney
In 1897, which position he filed most
creditably. The record so made caused
him to he very prominently brought

his fitness for the position, appointed
him assistant City Attorney, where he
has constantly displayed his ability as

has made a record of which any lawyer
