Inc dlsagreeable features of the cam
palsn' winch became so pronounced in its
latter part, commenced when Mayor Dunno
circulated petition for referendum vote
on the traction proposition. He and his
Followers announced that they had 151 0OO
slgners TO this petition. $1,000 being neces-
sarS 10 place the matter before the voters
Hearst Took Hand in It.
Charges were made by the republican
party that thousands of these names had
been forged and that the list had been
padded in every conceivable fashion. These
assertions We're vehemently denied by the
democrats and the followers of Mayor
Dunno who were in favor of immediate MIL
nicipal ownership. From this time until the
end of the campaign the feeling became
more bitter. William Randolph Hearst
came personally from New York to take
part in the campaign and brought with him
cartoonists and editorial writer's His pa
pers were the only publications in the city
supporting Mayor Dunno, all other newspa-
pers being for Busse and the ordinances
The papers favoring Busse made much of
the cry that Chicago was able to manage
Its own interests without receiving instruc-
tions from New York.
The Hearst papers claimed that Mayor
Dunno was acting for the best interests OF
Chicago and that 1t was. therefore their
duty to support him.
