Here are u few interesting items OF

FOR TRUE DEMOCRACY.

The new organization, the nucleus
of which was formed by the appoint.
ment of committee of 100 Of the lead.
Ing Democrats of Chicago, promises to
be the most powerful organization of
that party ever framed In this city.
1t has all the elements of strength
and success, not the least of which Is
the absence of jObhOlders and payroll
fiends from control.
As was frankly stated by one of the
leaders of the new organization. one of
Its main objects Is the elimination of
Harrison ana Harrisonism from the
Democratic prty.
The State has repudiated Harrison.
ism In II most unequivOcal manner, the
county of Cook has turned down his
silk-stOcking committee and its mis-
managed campaign, and II now remains
for the city OF Chicago to get rid of the
wOuld-be boss ana his fad gallery plays,
ana thereby purge the party of all the
hOt.air artists who have dragged 1t In
the dust of humbuggery, that it might

Now that the country Is being agl-

clamoring for legislation for "municl-
pal ownership" referendum and
heaven knows what not, such able and
sensible speeches as that delivered by
Hon. James II, Eckels, the eminent
financier and banker, before the Man
ufacrurcrs' Association, Wednesday
night, are both wholesome and timely.
Mr. Eckels in the course Of his mas
terly address discussed the evils of too
much legislation. Among the strong
est points made by the distinguished
orator were the following:
what this country needs Is fewer
laws and not additional laws. The
