YATES ENTERS
ENEMY'S CAMP
GOVERNOR WILL CAM
PAIGN FOR VOTES IN CHICAGO
THIS WEEK.

Chicago, May 23. - Governor Yates
invasion of Cook county. When he
gets through here Wednesday night
he will go to other places in the state,
which like Rock Island have delegates
that he thinks he can "lift." The en-
tire program of the Yates recess cam
paign" is to do as much harm to Col.
Lowden as possible. Yates figures
that he can hold his own and every In
road he can make on Lowden's forces
will be so much gained. The governor
is expected to reach Chicago this
morning.
Lowden is Working.
Colonel Lowden was at work yester.
day preparing not only to resist Yates
attacks, but determining whether he
could not reciproate in kind. There
are counties like Kane, Will and De
ISalb that voted for Yates during the
first session Of the convention which
might shift permanently after the re
cess and there is also a chance of get
ting the large delegation of McLear
county away from the governor. Il
might not go to Lowden but it would
hurt the governor to lose it. The Low
den headquarters were busy all da!
on this line.

SALT SELLING BELOW COST.
Price Wsr Between Independent Manufact-
urers and Trust the Cause.

Owing 70 the keen competition between ths IN
ternational Salt Company and the Independent
manufacturers the price Of salt has been reduced
here 20 point considerably below the cost OF pro-
duction. Common salt is now quoted at s. Is q ton
The cost of delivering a ton here Is about g 40.
The Independent manufacturers say that the re-
ductions nave been due 20 effort on the part Of
the International Salt Company 70 force them out
OF business 10 force them enter the trust.
II seems apparent that = will % only a question
OF time before weaker concerns will be forced TO
retire.
A representative of the International Salt Com
pany said that the resources FOR salt producing in
the United States we're practically unlimited snd
that there had 6een oyerpr0duCtion for many
years. This had caused The existing low figures.
The producing capacity OF evaporoted salt OF
Michigan alone IS said to he twice as large as the
consumption OF the entire United States The
overpi oduction has caused large accommodations OF
stocks. and anxiety on tho part OF holders to
rea!lze on t6eir product has according 70 the In
tsrnational salt Company. brought about the low
prices.
The government statistics show that the produc-
ton Of salt has Increased over 400 per cent Ia the
last twenIy years. the production for the year 1850
being 5S6l.0so barrels and the annual oiItrut OF
the last thTee years ranging above % barrels
