STATE WOMEN'S CLUBS MEET
President of illinois Federation Invite.
inspection of Work.

East st. Louis, ILL.,, Oct. 21.-The H.
linois club women now in convention
at the First Methodist church want
the men to come around and see what
they are doing. They commissioned
Mayor Cook yesterday to go out and
spread the tidings
Mrs. George Watkins of Chicago,
president of the Illinois Federation of
Women's Clubs, did the commission
ing. 1t was in her response to the vel
coming speeches of Mrs. L. c. Haynes
and Mayor Cook. Mayor Cook was
the only man in sight, and the big
church was filled with women. His
loneliness and helplessness may have
suggested the invitation.

didn't know what was going 10 nap
pen. When | got ready TO come back
| was a trife confused and not bit
optimistic
Where West Found Out.
Here is found the genesis of Vests
public. predictions that Deneen and
Taft will carry the state by 100000.
The chairman, in burst of well-meant
confidence. told it TO Judge Taft.
Thereafter he nursed it along with
wise caution, only repeating it to can
didates and intimate friends in the
secrecy of his Office until there ar
rived the psychological moment for
springing it upon the public. 1t has
served TO emphasize one aspect of the
campaign that has been cause of
ceaseless disquietude to Mr.. Deneen's
colleagues upon the state ticket. The
governor, it appears, is obessed by the
fact that he received a plurality of
100000 four years ago. He cannot
conceive how this majority can be
| wiped out and converted into a hos
| tile plurality. He understands the
magnitude and the bitterness Of the
revolt against him. He understands,
moreover, that it has gone beyond the
point where those participating in ii
can be placated. but he is fatuiously
confident that he will be reelected in
spite of it. He has abandoned at
| tempts to restore harmony.
When Senator Cullom undertook the
| rO1a nf ond oman ad
headquarters in the Grand Pacific
hotel, the governor at first was
pleased and publicly and privately ex
pressed the opinion that Senator Cul
lom was the finest product of Illinois
politics in the history of the state
Then came a sudden and inexplicablt
change. The senator was occupying
a suite of rooms at the hotel, presuma
bly, as the guest of the state centra
committee. in whose interest he wa
laboring A bill for the rooms wa
urned down by Chairman West an,
Senator Cullom had to pay il out o
his slender funds. The senator neve
: had a great deal of money. He jus
about manages TO get along on hi
senatorial salary. and that require
some pretty tall roofing even for
frugal person like the senator
Senator Cullom paid the bill. packe,
his belongings and fed to Springfield
where, if he does not find as broad
field for his efforts as official harmon
iZer he at least finds congenial SUI
roundings and an atmosphere that i
free of the pettiest chickering's an
trivialities that ever disgraced stat
campaign.
One of the things republicans ar
laying their greatest stress upon
the alleged incompetency of Roy
West. They all seem to agree tina
the state committee never before i
its history had chairman who wa
so devoid of ability. They are poin
ing to a hundred mistakes he ha
made since he installed himself in tn
Grand Pacific headquarters. and ar
waiting in suspense for new ones
: develop, which. they fear. will
, worse than those that have preceded

Booster Banquet of 7. M. c. A. Also
Serves Purpose of Annual
Membership Meeting.
DEBATE POLITICAL ISSUES
J. w. WEIGH in Mastery Manner Talks
for Democrats, n. A. Weld Being
Republican Speaker.

The booster banquet at the Y. NJ. c.
Al last evening was a great success,
and-the 60 men who were there thor
oughly enjoyed themselves as well as
took a new interest in the institution.
The banquet was made combination
of a banquet and the annual meeting
of the association, and two members
of the board of directors whose terms
had expired were unanimously re-
elected as directors. They were Dr.
w. E. Martin and Omer Cowden. This
election took but few minutes. and
then the main program of the evening
followed the supper which the Associa-
ton Helpers served.
DR.. w. f. Martin served in the ca
pacity of POSTMASTER, and he called
upon Rev. r. b. Williams for the first
talk. Rev. Williams responded briefly
by telling the workers the need for
getting more of the men and boys out
of the lower classes into the institu-
ton. DIR. Ira Crissman, the next
dustry," and applied it 10 the work
that each of the members can do in
building up the association.
Talks Democratic Politics.
The principal talks of the evening
were those of J. w. WEIGH and H. A
Weld, who presented the present cam
paign issues as they appeared to the
respective parties. Mr.. WEIGH present
ed the democratic side of the debate
in mastery manner, and he was
loudly cheered many times when his
remarks went home to the opposite
party. He sumed up the democratic
platform and slogan in four words
LET the people rule and then pro
ceeded to show that at present the
people are not the rulers. He made
telling points in regard to Cannon's
well known arbitrary rule of the house
and called attention to the fact thai
not. a single religious convention has
assembled in the last few year!
without going down on record as OPP
posed to the very things that the dem
ocratic platform opposes.
He reminded his listeners of thu
prince Nicholas" speech in this cit.
and showed how many things in tn
methods of the republican leaders CAV
the idea of a regular succession o
presidents, which Longworth express
ed, the stamp of truth.
On the Tariff.
AS the speakers time was very lin
tied, he dwelt briefly on the evils O
the present tariff system, and told how
the Infant industries which the hig
tariff wall had been built to protec
had grown TO such an extent that the
were crowding everything else out @
their way, and that if the tariff is KEEP
where the republican party will kee
it, the men behind the infant indu:
tries" will soon be in complete contrC
of the government The tariff plan
in the republican platform was poun
ed upon by the speaker, who criticise
it severely. The Rosewater incider
was also mentioned, in which a ma
high up in. republican circles mistoo
the republican tariff plank for a pa
