MEASURES THAT BEAR WILL

In its last edition the Eagle had
occasion TO refer to couple of pro-
posed measures. one of which was
pending before the city council, which
IL believed would bear close watching.
one of these measures was the
meter scheme. which Is in the shape
of a tentative ordinance and may be
presented to the city council ut any

This measure is wholly bad. and

mission that the light of public scru

UNJUST CRitiCiSM OF SHERIFF

Sheriff Barrett has during the past
week been subjected to Il great deal
of severe. and. we believe. unjust crit
icism for having made an effort to

Therefore his motives should not be
impugned. and man whose motives
are good should not be aspersed or at.
tackled however he may be mistaken.
but it is the general principle of Il
law office interceding for the pardon
of convict. that seems to form the
basis of all the editorial faultiinding.
We confess we cannot see anything
wrong in principle about the sheriff or
any other officer of the law recon.
mending the pardon of Il prisoner.
Is not the governor the chief execu.

The sheriff knew the man for whom

The food of criticism to which II,
has been subjected for this action Il

THE DEMOCRACY OF ILLINOIS.

The Democracy of Illinois. fortunate.
ly for the future Of that party, has not
yet become an annex of the merccnary
Chicago City Hall machine and the
crew Of slualld job holders who con-
stitute its leaders.
Fortunately for the Democratic party
of this state 1t has still within its
ranks men Of mental calibcr and OF
lofty aims. who can see something
higher and grander In party politics
than mere opportunity to feed ut the
public crib.
The effort Of the city hall payroll bri-
gadc to make big splurge in M.
,ional politics has resulted In the
merest ripple.
Nobody OF standing in the party or.
sanlzation. either state or national, has
had anything to do with 1t.
The National Committeeman from
Illinois. Mr.. Thomas Gahan, has ignor.
ed It; the chairman of the Democratic
State Central Committee has treated
It likewise. so have all the other men
Of standing In the live organizations Of
of the party both state and national.
The promised keynote for 1904 has
not been sounded, or II 1t has its
echoes have not penetrated beyond the
precincts Of the merry-go-round In
Brands Park.
A committee has been formed to
draft the national platform for the
next presidential campaign, but we
have an abiding conviction that the
EXAMINATIONS Of that body will not lind
n very prominent place In the pro-
gram or the proceedings Of the next
Democratic National Convention
The Democratic party Of the State OF
Illinois has within its ranks many men
who are worthy Of the title OF states
men. They will be the men who will
be heard from when the Democracy of
the Prairie State next speaks in the
councils of the nation, and not the petty
| job holders who loaf around the city
hall for pay day and the payroll to
come around.
Men whose highest conceptions OF
| party patriotism IL job and Il firm
hold on the payroll are not the kind Of
men who frame party policies for this
| nation.
The time can never come when such
| men can ever do so.
| As water will lind It's level, 50 also
will the small fry office holders in,
| variably find theirs when the leaders

nation meet in conclavc.
Illinois has produced many illus

She has many illustrlouS sons with
in her borders today, and the name Of
one of these has always been sounded

have made the streets Of Chicago n

evidently consider that they are the
whole people and that there are no
Others.
Only the other day the teamsters'

uttcFance to the following war cry
which speaks for Itself.
