the days when the politicians will
be in Springfield.
Proverbially nothing of Importance
ever comes out of state fair delibera-
tions, but the appearance of impor-
tapce always is there.
This year, because of the questions
involved in the calling of an extra
session of the legislature, the rule of
years may be broken and some de-
c;sions relative to the program to
be- attempted in legislation may be
agreed on.
Governor Makes No Announcement.
Governor Deneen has made no pub
lie announcement of his own inten-
tons regarding primary legislation.
The party managers who are opposed
to such attempts at regulation will be-
licve there will be special session
when they read the call for it.
Less conservative folks understand
the governor is committed to the re.
assembling of the legislature, but
many of the antiprimary politicians
will have TO be shown" definitely be-
fore they will conccdc that another
session of tribulation and woe is on
them.
1t has been said unofficially that Mr..
Deneen prefers to limit the scope of
the assembly's effort to the two big
issues of primaries and waterway.
Efforts will be made by representa-
tives of down state cities to have him
include in the call the question of an
enabling act to permit the adoption of
the commission form of government
fer municipalities other than Chicago.
Another effort will be made to secure
the inclusion of the question of allow
ing cities TO exercise reasonable CON
troll over the methods of railroad OPP

DEMOCRATS TELL
DENEEN DEMANDS
Republican Leaders Must Keep
Hands Off Minority Repre-
sentation Question.
CONFERENCE AT CAPITAL
Special Session to Consider Primary
Legislation Considered This
Week.

The democratic state organization Will
'ences at Springfield this week that if
democratic support in the legislature
for new primary bill is to be obtain
ed the trainers of the new measure
will have to keep their hands off the
minority representation question.
The democrats are not vastly alarm
ed by fear that the republican party
leaders contemplate any action that
would make the nomination of three
candidates of any one party possible
in senatorial district, but at the
same time they are willing it should
be understood that if such an idea be
Matched under any republican hats it
might as well be discarded.
Democratic Position.
How the senatorial question is to be
solved the democratic managers do
not know and do not care. All they
insist on is that they be allowed to
retain the privilege of putting men in
the legislature without trouble.
When it is possible to make only one
nomination in heavy republican dis
trict the election of that one nominee
is as close to certainty as anything
political can be.
The rest of the primary question
does not bother the democratic man
ayers much, they being convinced of
their ability to get along under any
form of nominations.
