Deneen-

The Senatorial contest between Sena-

errlor Yates of Illinois Is taking on
large proportions despite the fact that
the date is yet extremely early Senator
Cullom's friends make no denial that
the situation gives them concern, and
they are getting active all over the
state conference of about a hundred
Cullom leaders In the western and CEN
tral parts Of the State considered the
situation the first OF this week, and
adopted plans for effective organization.
The attitude OF Governor Deneen is
still worrying the Cullom people. and
some of those attending the conference
called on him to learn his intentions
with reference 10 dividing the State pa
tronage as between the two Senatorial
candidates. The position Of the governor
has been that the Yates men should
dictate the distribution in Yates coun-
Ties and the Cullom men in Cullom
counties.
In carrying out this arrangement there
has been some offense toa the Cullom
men, who feel that the governor is
hardly playing fair with them. The
Yates people swung their strength TO
Deneen in the famous gubernatoriai con-
test last year. and there have been re
Yates as far as possible.
Further conferences OF the cullom peo-
pie will be held during the next few
weeks. and IL is plain that Uncle Shelby
is getting very busy looking after his

BOARD REACHES DECISION

There are many runors in circula-
ton on Capitol Hill as to what VIII
be the decision of the Board of Educa-
ton tomorrow night in the Swartzell-
Eastern High School affair.
Some have IL that Swartzell VIII be
retained, while others claim that he
will be either transferred or dismissed,
or reduced to teacher OF Latin.
Not one Of these rumors can be
traced to authoritative sources. but 1t
is claimed that a certain woman MEM
Der Of the Board of Education has
gone on record as unconditionally be-
at his present post.
This woman has children going TO
Central and il appears that the o street
school Is the only one that Swartzell
could be transferred TO. 1t is said
that this woman has threatened to take
her children from Central II the board
decides TO transfer Swartzel.
Important Question.
Whether the action of this member
of the board will have any weight in
framing it's decision is the question
that is paramount in East Washington
today.
| Many believe it will. while others DO
not see where the board can do any
thing but supersede Swartzell. though
they Will not offer even q suggestion
as TO the ultimate disposition OF the
| principal.
From the manner in which the in
yestigation of the entire SwartZen con-
| troveSSy has been conducted by the
Board of Education, the students OF
/ Eastern and citizens Of East Washing
| ton. are beginning to believe that the en-
/ tire matter has been a cut and dried
| proposition from the start
! During the investigation Mr.. Swart-
! zell has been permitted to call his owr
| witnesses and to question them with In
terrogations prepared, witnesses say, by

! Decision Reached.
That the Board Of Education has al
ready reached its decision is q knowI
fact but what that decision is no ont
has been able to confirm.

today whether there were any ground
for the rumor that Principal SWartZel
would be retained. declined to eithe
