The Lorimer Corner.

Macoupin County Argus: 1t is no
doubt true that Lorimer has got the
signatures of ma jOritY of the re-
publican members of the house to
his roll call. The state patronage and
u good deal in Chicago are useful in
making up the deal. One of the fell
lows pulled out of the Sherman col
unn is said TO be slated for a state
office i'm '0I. But the result is not GER
tain. Home sentiment is worrying
number of those who have signed for
Lorimer. 1t is an uncomfortable po-
sition for many of them to be put
down as putty men in the hands of
boss who is not even a member of
the legislature. But there are GER
tainly 40 cut of the 80 that will stand
soIidly for Sherman. They comprise
most of the experienced able leaders.
and Hon. Thomas Rinaker, of Macou-
pin. is always named among the fore
most of these. Sherman has been
speaker and has a splendid record in
that position. and would be unani-
mously elected but for the fact that
Lorimer and Yates cannot use him
for personal schemes. The Spring
field News, a republican paper, says
the defeat of Sherman means that the
corrupt Chicago element will run
things, mainly in the interest of hood
lerism and the safe administration
rather than the people. That is pro-
badly the fact as far as the bosses
are concerned, and a good deal of adj
vantage is had in the control of the
committees, but there will be a resO-
lutte and powerful minority of republic
cans ably led, and with the aid of the
democrats, should be able to defeat
any Objectionable measures. In
the senate the republican majority
is anti-Lorimer. 1t will be difficult to
enact the reforms needed if the speak
er and house committees are opposed.
The theory of the state machine is
that there shall be three coordinate
departments, each corrective of the
other. 1t is not designed that the
governor shall run the legislature
or the Legislature the governor. No
provision is made for the Lorimers.
Perhaps this is a mistake. He is not
recognized as a department.. 1t was
not anticipated that ma ority of the

follows:
The banked oars fell an hundred

And backed and threshed and

But bitter was the rowers' song
As they brought the war boat
round.
They had no heart for the rally and
roar
That makes the whaIeback smoke
When the great blades cleave and
hold and leave
As one on the racing stroke.
They sang: What reckoning do We
keep.
And steer her by what star.
If we come unscathed from the
southern deep
TO be wrecked off Baltic bar?
Last night you sNvore our voyage was
done.
But seward still we go:
And We tell Us now of secret VOW
We made with an open foe:
That we must lie off IightIess coast
And haul and back and veer.
At the will of the breed that have
wronged MS most.
For year and year and year.

When we stood forth, but they stood

And prayed to see us drown.

cold:
Our wounds are bleeding yet:
And We tell us now that our strength
is sold
To help them press for debt!
Meath all the flags of all mankind
That use upon the seas,
Was there no other fleet to find,
That We strike hands with these?
"Of evil times that men could choose
On evil fate to fall,
What brooding judgment let We loose
To pick the worst of all?
I'm sight of peace from the narrow

Ger half the world to run
With cheated crew to league anew
With the Goth and the shameless

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Sept 17.-Mil-
waukee packing house employees are in
receipt of information from Chicago
which seems to indicate either that the
proposed new combination of packing
houses rumored for some time past has
been formed, or that the combination
alleged during the recent federal inves-
tigation has been fact all along.
In Chicago an agreement was reach
ed a few days ago under which one
branch of the trade, said to be the
sausage makers, was given an advance
of 25 per cent in wages throughout the
country. This agreement, no announce
ment of which has yet been made pub
lie, was made between committees rep
resenting the employees and a superin-
tendent of the Armour Packing COM
pany. 1t applied not only to the Ar
mour plant, but to the other packing
plants of Chicago and the leading es-
adjustments throughout the country.
