Holds Place by Fraud.

His corporate connections would harm
the party far beyond his power to aid the
organization. but this could be left for
some future convention to deal with if he
were actually the choice of the Demo
Gratis of Illinois. The fact. however, that
he holds his office by fraud and against
the express wishes of majority of the
delegates to the state convention makes
il impossible for honest Democrats to as
sociate with him as member of the COM
mittee. If we do not maintain the right
of the majority 10 control party policy
and select the party's representatives, for
what can we contend? The fact that Mr..
Sullivan has spoken kindly of me enables
me to discuss the matter without risk or
having my actions attributed to personal
malice, but he ought to see that / would
be unworthy of any ones confidence II
failed to protest against his continuance
upon the committee, either to conciliate
him or out of fear of his hostility.

Leaders Must Ring True.

There is room i'm the party for all who
honestly favor Democratic principles, but
the leadership must be in the hands of
those who have the confidence of the par
ty and whose prominence will strengthen
the party. If he will at once send his res
ignation to the chairman of the national
committee and make the matter public he
will show his desire to help the party,
and will do much to restore himself in the
opinion of those who felt outraged by the
last state convention. If he refuses TO re-
sign and thus puts his ambition or MS
business before the party's success, the
sooner he is elected from the committee
the better. 1t ought to be made an issue
in the state convention if necessary for
the Democracy of Illinois cannot fight I'M
der such leadership, and ought not to
permit itself to be misrepresented on the
national committee. Yours truly.

1vLIN PROTESTS FlLED
Attorney for Trustees Makes Whole
sale Objections.

Suits protesting about 200 claims
held against properties in the trustee
ship Of the Devlin trustees will be filed
with n. H. Loonis, referee, by J. S.
Dean, attorney for the trustees Some
of these claims, such as w. H. HORNE
& Company, and f. H. Adams, will be
protested in the entirety, others will
be protested because the claims are
not properly presented against the
right company.
II can not give you the amounts nor
the names of the claimants at this
time" said Mr.. Dean Some of these
suits are simply filed as a matter of
form but in others such as the HORNE
claim we protest against the collateral
held"
A hearing will be held before Judge
Pollock in chambers Wednesday on the
protest filed by Carver and Larimer,
attorneys for certain creditors of the
Devlin estate, on the decision of Ref
cree LOOMS permitting the transfer of
Illinois properties valued at 100000
from the Devlin estate to the Devlin
Coal company and Toluca, Marquette
x Northern railroad under application
of the trustees.
Considerable feeling enters into this
protest as an attempt is being made
to remove the trustees from exercising
trusteeship in both the Devlin estate
and the coal company
The trustees and the attorneys for the
trustees are inclined to disparage the at
tempt of Carver and Larimer because
they are attorneys FOR 4. IL ADAMS ana
w. H HORNE and company. whose claims
large creditors are of considerable
question. In addition. J: S. Dean. attor-
ney for the trustees. holds letter from
one of the creditors which it is claimed
states that the creditor in question never
authorized the action of Carver and Lari-
mer.
Hopes of the declaration of a speedy
dividend from the Devlin trusteeship do
not exist
The properties, in Illinois are being sold
off piecemeal. the Topeka properties are
largely disposed of, while those in Craw-
ford county. Kansas. viii be sold to the
highest bidder on January Il. The policy
OF the trustees is to convert all of this
property into cash as soon possible
and let the litigation take place on the
proceeds Not until all these many con-
fiicting suits are settled can a dividend be
declared and these suits may drag out for
several years.
Replying to a criticism which was made
because of the failure of the trustees to
file a bi-monthly report as is provided for
by law, J. s. Dean said. TT is imprac-
ticable to file such reports in this partic-
ular instance. If we were to file reports
every two months there wouldn't be a
chance of doing anything else but get
ting up reports.

Delivering the Worlds Christmas Mail.
The emperor of Germany finds time
to play Santa Claus for his subjects,
says Fritz Morris in the Technical
World Magazine for December. Last
year when the Berlin Dostoffice was
swamped with the unusual bulk of the
Christmas mail. and there was a posi-
bility of the little children of Berlin
not getting their Christmas presents
until long after the great day the
kaiser ordered out the imperial troops
to aid in delivering the mail. The
soldiers went about their task willing
" and had all the mail delivered by
Christmas eve, so that no one was dis
appointed in his plans for the holiday
Along the Spreewald in Germany,
skates are brought into service to aid
the mailman; in parts of Switzerland
the carrier uses skees; in st. Peters,
burg the traditional sleigh carries the
cars mail; while in Copenhagen the
bicycle is made to answer the purpose
of the reindeer. The mailman in
American cities uses every sort of con-
veyance to help him deliver the post.
Sometimes he Will put his load into q
buggy ard wheel the vehicle along the
streets himself. Perhaps he will use a
sled on Which to put his sack. When
the weather is less severe. one may
even see the mailman delivering his
mail from a banana vendors push
cart, or, perhaps. he may have a sad
die horse weighted down with the
burden Of presents. Anything goes
that will make the work easier for the
man who plays the part of Santa
Claus
