If hard, systematic and well-directed
ty leaders can do it, the Republicans
of Cook County and the State of Hi.
nois are bound to make q record.break-
ing campaign this fall.
The work for the State ticket was
begun on Wednesday in Peoria, ILL.,,
and will be continued now right up to
the day of election.
At Peoria, the Republican League Of
Illinois held its annual convention. and
there the party orators in forcible
speeches opened the party campaign
and stated the issues.
Under the leadership of tried and
capable Republicans of the caliber of
Chairman Fred II. Rowe, Of the state
Central Committee, the beginning of
the campaign has been ushered In aus
plciously.
Nothing in the way of detail in the
work now before the party will be
overlooked, and it Is announced that
no feeling of overconhdence will be
allowed to interfere with the work of
the party organizations Of either the
county or the State.
One of the things which the party
managers are preparing to guard
against is the possibility Of small
vote because it is an of year. In 9th.
er respects it Is claimed the Republic
ans are In far better condition than
the Democrats, and have, It Is pointed
out, the best of the issues all along the
line.
The Democrats are said to be un
usually indolent down through the
State. In some counties they have not
even nominated county tickets, MOI
have they nominated over 81 or s.
candidates for the House, q fact which
goes far to prove that even the most
enthusiastic among them has little
hope Of carrying the General Assembly
on joint ballot.
The Eagle Is Informed that In add
ton to the oratorical features OF til,
campaign other and more silent bu
just as effective work Is being don,
under the supervision of the State Cen
tral Committee.
First returns of the canvass of thu
State being made by the Republicans
are being just now received ut the Re
publican State headquarters. Grea
secrecy in regard to the showing mad,
by the preliminary canvass Is main
tained by the party managers. 1t Il
known, however, that the figures thu
far received indicate that the Repub
lican strength in the State Is as grea
now as 1t was in 1900.
There Is no falling Off In the Repub
lican ranks, according to the return
at hand up to date. But few count.
canvasses have been contemplated, an,
1t Is not expected that the first can
vases will be finished for some time
In some counties the figures show tha
the relative strength Of the Republic
ans and Democrats Is about the sam
as 1t was two years ago. In othe
counties there Is marked Republican
gain. This Is especially noticeable Il
the counties in the southern section o
the State.

To tho Editor Chicago Eagle.
Dear Sir: Some time ago, through
tho columns OF the Eagle. drew ut.
tcntlOn to the practice now In vogue
In the City Hall of forcing the men,
bers of the police and fire departments
to buy uniforms, or the material for
same. through u municipal purchasing
agency. The ideas l then published,
through your kindness, have since
come into full force ana effect, as wit.
ness the following extract from the
daily papers of Tuesday last:
"A municipal cooperative tailoring
esta blishment Is suggested by the City
Purchasing Agent ~ u remedy for the
evils of the city cloth shop OF which
the police are complaining. With such
an establishment In operation the po-
lice and firemen could secure their uni
forms ut cost. ana. what Is said to be
Of more Importance to them, they could
secure credit.
AS 1t IL now, according to the Pur.
chasing Agent. many of the policemen
are dlsobeying the ordinance compel.
ling them to purchase their cloth from
the city, and many others are paying
high prices for their work because they
borrow money from tallOrs to buy the
cloth.
"I do not believe that the cloth Is
of poor quality said the Purchasing
Agent. TO make sure, shall investi-
gate. Some of the men probably are
paying high price for their uniforms,
but II Is because their tailors are hold.
ing them up.
MANY policemen want credit. When
they buy their cloth of the city they
have to pay cash. Some of the tailors
will advance them the money to buy
the cloth and then trust them for the
uniform, making collections on the in
stallment plan. or course the man who
gets his uniform that way will pay a
big price for It.
81 have suggested to the Chief that
the ordinance be either amended or re-
pealed The only way to secure uni
fOrmity In dress Is to have all the ma,
terial from one MILL"
Now, while l have no quarrel with
the City Purchasing Agent, have Il
grievance, ana so has every other pa.
trOlman and fireman In the city, with
Il system which compels us to buy uni,
forms. or anything else, for that mat
ter from any one individual or firm.
Surely the wages we earn Is our own,
and II that be so, have we not the
rights Of other citizens as to its dis.
pOsal or use?
Therefore, claim that the members
of these two departments should not
be obliged to purchase their wearing
apparel through any agent or other in
sttutiOn, but should be allowed their
freedom and the right of choice In the
matter so long as the principle Of uni.
formity Is maintained. I quote the
words of the Purchasing Agent be-
