home is reported as due to fears of the

lately, for Dolliver has high regard
for Adams The junior senator has
not seemed happy about the pros
poets lately. altho always expressing
confidence in the outcome. He would
have been pleased to keep out of the

threat of an Allison holt is carried out
after the Cummins victory at the pri-
maries.

Former President Unable to Be
Moved From Hotel at Lake
wood to Home
STAYS AFTER HOTEL is CLOSED
Utmost Secrecy Observed by Members
of the ousehoId-cIeveIand Said to
Be Suffering From Stomach Trouble
Physicians in Constant Attend
ancs.

Lakewood, N. j., April 23.-The fact
that ex-President Grover Cleveland
remains at the Lakewood hotel after
the hotel has been closed for the sea-
son, while physicians are in close at
tendance, has caused apprehension
that Cleveland's progress toward re-
covery from the recent attack of III
ness has not been as rapid as desired
Watchmen are constantly on guard
about the hotel and information con-
cerning the condition of the former
president is difficult to obtain.
Mrs Cleveland went to her home in
Princeton Wednesday, but remained
only short time, returning to Lake

in Illinois Democratic Con-
ventiun
CHICAGO CROWD is FOR JOHNSON
Delegates From City Do Not Join in
AppIaudins Nebraskan's Name-con-
vsntion Sentiment Overwhelmingly
for Old acknowledgements on
Resolutions.

Springfield, ILL.,, April 22.-Ten men
from Chicago, headed by Maxwell Ed
gar, brought the Johnson boom to the
democratic state convention early to-
day. No headquarters were opened,
but the men distributed vast amount
of johnson literature and set forth the
merits of their man with all the abil-
ity at their command They made no
Impression, however, on the mass o.
delegates, who are solid for Bryan.
No change was made in the program
for the convention. The convention
was called to order at noon. After the
organization and accepting of reports
from the various district caucuses, the
delegates listened to the address OF
Free p. Morris, of Watseka, the tenn
porary chairman, who will also be the
permanent presiding officer
Three candidates for governor were
active today-Douglas Pattison, OF
Freeport; James Hamilton Lewis and
John p. McGoorty, of Chicago. All OF
them opened headquarters and were
busy bolstering up their booms.
Morris Lauds Bryan.
When Morris took the chair he de-
livered an address predicting success
for the democrats in the coming elec-
tion If discord was avoided. He
launched upon lengthy criticism OF
~. o,~t1Y
the tariff question said:
.'The democratic party is opposed to
, high protective tariff, for it block
ades our traffic with the world. The
party demands wise and just revision
OF the tariff laws in the interest and
for the benefit of labor. capital and
commerce, and to the end that this
disparity between the expenses of liv-
ing and production may be adjusted
on a basis of common fairness"
In conclusion he said:
"The pendulum of human liberty has
reached the end Of the arc. The dem
ocrats Of Illinois are for Bryan for
president. The country has acclaimed
him as one worthy to stand with such
heroes as Washington and Lincoln. He
measures in the fullest sense to the
loftiest standard of all great states
men whose names have embellished the
pages of history of our nation. Let the
Denver convention give us this re-
nowned chieftain to lead our hosts, and
we will verify the axiom that the third
time is the charm Inspired to united
and titanic efforts, we will achieve a
victory, not for our party alone, but
for our beloved country"
The mention of Bryan's name by
Morris called forth an outburst Of
cheers, many delegates leaping upon
their seats and waving hats and hand
kerchiefs. The greater part of the en-
thusiasm, however, came from dele
cations outside of Chicago and Cook
county.
After reading the reports of the eau
cuses, recess was taken until 1880
o'clock.

Illinois Supreme Court Han
Down Important Decision
on Liquor issue
THREE ELECTIONS INVOLVED
Adverse Decision Would Have Placed
Saloons in Thirty-six Dry Counties
Of the State = saIoonists Attacked
Law on Many Points and Lose in
Every instance.

Springfield, I'LL, April 23.-The SUI
preme court today rendered a decision
in the Mcbride case. declaring the new
local option law passed last year con-
stitutional.
Upon this decree depended the eff
fects of three saloon elections which
have been held under the provisions
of the present law These elections
resulted in thirty-six counties barring
out saloons altogether, while thirty
six other counties turned the liquor
dispensaries out of all but one or two
towns in the county. At least two and
a half million people in Illinois who
have lived in prohibition districts
would perhaps be put back into sa-
loon territory if the supreme court
had declared the law unconstitutional.
The court was unanimous in it's de-
cision. Every point on which the law
was attacked is gone into by the court
and no section of it but what is pro-
nounced valid. The court holds the
title is not defective; that the law
does not interfere with interstate com-
merce; that 1t does not confiscate prop
erty because the saloonkeeper invests
in furniture and fixings knowing he Is
liable to have his license revoked at
any time under the old law even, and
that the new law does not create any
new offenses; that the United States
stamp is prima facie evidence that a
man is engaged in the sale Of liquor!
that in case of elections without no.
tice, for which it provides such cleo
.tions, if held would be invalid, but
that this does not invalidate the act it
self; that the legislature may create
districts like county or township and
that if the voters in the district shall.
decide that intoxicating liquors shall
not be sold in the district, then q vii
lage or city in this district created can
rot permit the sale of liquor. The sale
of liquor for medicinal purposes by
druggists Is never regarded az the
saloon business, says the court.
Regarding returning saloon licenses
and creating debt, the court holds
that when man gets a saloon license
and cannot use it, the municipality is
suing the license is legally bound tol
pay it back to him. One Of the prin-
cipal objections was that the law
permits the legislature to delegate leg
islative powers to the people by per-
mitting the people in localities to
adopt law. The court says that from
beginning to end the supreme court Of
this state has held that to be legal.
