COOK COUNTY DEMOCRACY LOOKS
INFANT OVER CAREFULLY.
Members Shake Their Heads But
Promise to Take Up the
Matter Later On.

Chicago, April 2S.-The Johnson presi-

Sullivan, George E. Brennan, County
Chairman, William l.. O'Connell, Secre-
tary John McGillen were granted the
opportunity to look it over first hand
by Sam H. Wood of Minneapolis, who
is the present nurse for the political
infant.
Mr.. Wood was peritted to outline
his plans to the committee, but after
he was through little of aid or COM
fort had been afforded him by the
democratic leaders.
He told the Chicagoans that the
northern states will be asked to send
delegations to big conference at st.
Paul in October, 1909; that in October,
1910, the time will be ripe, for a wes-
tern convention at San Francisco; that

incidentally Mr.. Wood is interested
in seeing large Johnson campaign
fund raised early.

Brooklyn, n. Y, April 25.-Pastor
Charles T. Russell, preaching today In
the Brooklyn Tabernacle, said:
The first thought connected with
this text. dear friends, is the peculiar
ity of the fact that the God of all
grace, the Almighty, the All-Wise, the

world of mankind. 1t would surprise
none of us If the Apostle had written
that God greatly loved the holy angels
and that he would do any and every
thing for their protection and blessing.
We would have said, at is just like
him. OF course he would do so. They
have always been loyal, always been
true. They are noble images of him.

had even been that God so loved his
saints that, blemished by the imper-

greater surprise than Gods love for

TAFT PRAISES
GENERAL GRANT
President Approves Work Of
Famous Soldier.
HAD Been SHARPLY CRITICISED

NHieI Executive THO been oCoreU
Year Aga Because of Certain Of His
References to General Grant--Avaiis
Himself of the Opportunity to Elk
press Anew His Admiration for the
Dead Hero.
Philadelphia, April 2S.-President
Taft was the principal speaker at the
Grant birthday dinner of the Union
league in this city, and paid a strik
ing tribute to the soldier-president.
Mr.. Taft was sharply criticised a
year ago because of certain of his ref.
erences to General Grant, and he took
advantage of his opportunity to eM
press anew his admiration for Gen
eral Grant as man, as a soldier AND
as chief executive of the United
States.
The banquet hall of the club, where
about 300 sat at the tables, was pro
fusely decorated with flowers, flags
and electric lights.
General Horace Porter of New York
and President James F. Hope of the
Union league were among the speak
ers who preceded President Taft. The
latter. following his almost invariable
custom, spoke eXtemporaneously. Mr.
Taft spoke at times in half quizzical
manner, and there was frequent laugh
ter. as well as applause at his refer
ence to political conditions in the
South.
After making mplimentary refer
support of the war and in it's con
tinuance, Mr.. Taft said in part:
ut is peculiarly fitting that this
cllb. each year, should celebrate the
birthday of that man who then was
coming into prominence and upon
whom hung, it would seem, the whole
destinies of the nation.
There are certain things with re.
spect to General Grant that today
come back with reference to our pass.
ing life They said that Grant had
not the military genius that other gen.
erals displayed in the war. To my
mind his mind and brain represented
the very genius Of the war to sup
press the Rebellion, because it was
his mind that grasped the thought
that until we had fought it out with
our brave opponents and met them in
the field and fought them as soldiers
until we convinced them by our
strength that the battle was hopeless.
we could not expect to have a united
country.
"And. therefore. from the time he
began in Belmont until he accepted
the surrender Of Lee at Appomattox
he fought not cities, not points OF
strategy, but he fought the enemy,
and he fought and fought and fought.
until he wore out the opposition, be
cause only by wearing them out could
he hope to bring about the condition
in which there should be complete
peace"

PATTEN BOOMING MARKET
COTTON OPTIONS BREAK ALL
HIGH RECORDS OF PRESENT
BULL MOVEMENT.
May and July Options Pass i5c
Mark, Highest Since the SuIly
Movement-Heavy Pur-
chases by Patten.

New York, Dec 9,-Amid scenes
of wild excitement on the New York
Exchange, cotton options broke all
nigh records of the present bull
movement, and two of the options
reached the highest point touched
since Daniel j. Sully made a futile
attempt to corner the market some
years ago.
The upward rush was started by
the bullish report on amount of cot
ton ginned up to the present time.
The cry of "20c cotton" was again
raised by the bull clique, headed by
James A. Patten the Chicago specu-
lator, who recently cleaned up for
tune of several millions by cornering
the wheat market. This same cry was
advanced recently when Patten and
his followers started to boom the
market, but the conservatives ridi-
culed the prediction.
That this might be realized, how
ever, was the fear expressed by the
bears after heavy purchases by Pat
ten and his associates had sent pri-
ces soaring yesterday.
The May and July options at
1890 o'clock, while the excitement
in the pit was greatest, passed the
15c mark and established the new
high record since the Sally move-
ment. At that hour May was selling
at 1880 and July at 1880. This
was an advance of sixteen and sew
enteen points, respectively. Decem-
Der was up thirteen points to 14.65c,
January up eleven to 14.7Sc and
March up fifteen to 15.14c

SOUTHERN NEGROES TO Be DROPPED At END OF TERM
List OF Those Holding Federal Pums Who viii Be Jared Loose Present
Scheme Prevails--tls Expected that White Men viii Be
Appointed to Offices in the South.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-LThat Presi-
ments of northern negroes for office,
rather than southern ones, is the
information which has been pretty
thoroughly disseminated among the
negro politicians throughout the
country.
The president has talked over his
ideas about the appointment OF ne
groes to offices with some of the
leading men OF the race and he has
signified to them his inclination to
give recognition to the negro voters
in northern states.
As a result of this policy it is ex-
pected that the negroes in the south
who are holding important offices
will. as their terms expire, be dis
placed, for the most part, by whites,
and in turn recognition will be given
to negroes in the north,
The list of negroes holding impor-
tant offices in the south under the
federal government includes the
following:
Robert Smalls, collector Of Gus
toms at Beaufort, S. c.
Henry A. Rucker, collector of in
ternal revenue at Atlanta, Ga.

revenue at Jacksonville, Fla.
