"Haw, haw, haw! the way we-haw, haw nominated
Judge Mack-haw haw haw!-for supreme Judge"
It's hard to get just what the joke is but that's 1.-THE
naming of for the supreme bench one of the great
est states in the union.
The republican delegates had been in session at Macomb
for four days In the four days the two political bosses
OF lllnols-Governor Deneen and Senator Lormer-had
fought 2OO ballot battle to which should show his
supremacy by naming the chief magistrate of Illinois.
Lornier wanted man named Chiperfied. Deneen
wanted anybody but Chpereld He had backed five
dldates. But none could quite turn the trick.
50 the delegates who were to supreme court
Judge got tired-and funny They sang songs-''How
They smoked cgarets and yawned and told storiesand
began voting at random for who had idea of

Delegate Shively who was managing Chiperdale's in
terests for Lormer especially facetious knowing
Chiperdae couldn't be elected till something broke the
deadlock he threw his Is votes for four different
many ballots.
Then Shivey achieved his joke extraordinary. He
would vote his Is for from the very county of
State Senator Berry, Deneens lieutenant in the
ton.

lenged Berry II wish you people would support him. "

Henderson county, McDonough county and others on
Deneens list had been taking their cue from Senator
Berry. They gave the joke candidate their votes Rock

All of sudden Warren county-a Deneen county-had

had been keeping count his cuff sprang to his feet

And he had. The jest had turned to earnest. The
convention had named it's choice.
