come out for absolute ownership now,

worth Reports have been received
from 100 European cities showing the
successful operation Of street railways
under public ownership. The Inter-
Ocean and the Journal have Joined the
Dunno ranks, and there is a general drift

of 100000 for President Roosevelt Is
likely to turn TO majority for Dunno
Of $4,000.

an outcome has already begun, If the
people of Chicago reverse party MAORI
