Senator Lorimer is in bad fix. The
Chicago Tribune has him hemmed In
on all sides. Still another confession.
has been added to the pile Of evidence
already stacked up against him. that OF
state Senator Holstlaw, who has cons
fessed to receiving $4,000 for his vote
for Lorimer. And this confession was
made almost while the Illinois junior
senator was speaking in the senate i'm
his own defense against the charge
that his seat in that august body was
bought The Tribune has the better
side Of the fight apparently, and 1t is
going TO be unrelenting i'm the battle
until "Lorimerism' is ended in Illinois.
II now offers a reward of $4,000 for in
formation concerning the identity of
the members Of the syndicate who
put up the money to buy votes for
Tbrimer's election, for the Tribune
realizes that seyis in the senate are
not commonly bought solely TO gratify
the hunger of the recipients for motor
iety. Big business interests, seeking
special privileges, are usually back of
such deals.
Lorimer's defense i'm the senate last
Saturday was a feeble effort, inasmuch
as he failed TO say anything which
would clear him of the charge that his
seat in the senate was purchased. He
fought shy Of the main question and
contented himself with "a bitter denun-
citation of the so-called conspirators
against his political and business ca
reer. and holding himself and his
friends up as paragons Of purity.
And the answers TO his pitiful at
tempt at vindication are four: Chas
] A. .Nhite.... AIichasl- S.sLapSs.-Hsz.4C
Beckmeyer and State senator ID. w
Holstlaw, all Of whom have confessed
10 accepting brides for their votes fol
Lorimer. The answers are direct, too
while Lorimer's are generalities. indi
rect and remote. insofar as the charge
staring him in the face is concerned.
