Corrupt Illinois Politics.

If the people knew the corrupt
ms'thods used by the Republican
leaders. to perpetuate their lease Of
power and fill their pockets that party
would not be able to win an election
in any State to say nothing of the
nation. Occasionally some of the
rascality crops out, but heretofore
the leaders have managed to appease
the people by sacrificing scape goat
or two, but there seems to be a
change. Recent congressional cleo
tions indicate that the people are
catching on and rsfuse to be fooled
any longer. The Infamous things
that are being brought out in the Il
linois investigation should land sew
eral rascals in the penitentiary. 1t
seems that out there they had cor
ruption fund always on tap. John
Dixon, of Peoria, and Henry Lemm,
of Pekln, wealthy fish dealers, testi-
fed before the Sangamon county
grand jury Saturday regarding a fish
bill Jackpot" to which Lemm con-
tributed and which Dixon said ae
collected. This fund was used to pre-
vent the enactment of fish laws in
the interest of the public.
This fish bill fund was bad enough.
but evidence submitted indicated
that it was a trivial affair compared
with the big Jackpot" raised to
control heavier legislation, such IS
the local option bill. This fund
amounted to 100000 raised b. the
liquor interests to buy up the legls-
lature, or so many of its members as
would be sufficient to carry through
any legislation the men who raised
md paid out this corruption fund
wanted enacted, or defeat any leg
islation they did not want enacted.
For the so-called business corpor-
alton tax bill, which was passed and
vetoed, it is reported fund of $780,
900 was raised, while $4,000 is
the sum mentioned in connection
with the bill providing for transfer
of valuable lake front lands to GER
tain Chicago corporations. These
lifferent funds were raised and eX-
pended by different interests that
wanted special legislation to enabie
them to rob the people. 1t was paid
out to Democrats who could be
bought, as well as to Republicans,
who generally acted as the go-be-
twsens for the special interests that
are willing to pay for legislation.
While some rascally Democratic
members of legislatures We're bought
by these special interests, the Repub-
lican party must be held responsible
for all the rascality, as they have
large majority in the Illinois Legls-
lature as we'll as all the State OFF,
GERS, and could have defeated any
vicious legislation if they wanted to.
But they were the chief beneficiaries
of the large corruption funds raised
to influence legislation, and there
fore they must be held responsible
for all the rascality brought to light
Yet Mr.. Taft says the Republican
party must be kept in power to con-
troll Socialism.

Nurses and Babies.

There has bsen great deal said
in the papers about the nurses and
the babies-the necessity of keeping
watch on the nurse when she car
ries your little one for the daily out
ing. 1t is a fact that many of the
nurses of the present day neglect
and, at times, abuse, the infants en-
trusted to them. The incident in
Charleston recently illustrates the
danger in not keeping a watch on
your child when entrusted to the
modern black nurse, says the Au-
gusta Chronicle.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Graft, of No.
80 Blake street, that city, ordered
the nurse, Carrie James, to take their
eighteen-months-old baby. Fraser,
together with his older sister, Lottie,
for an airing on the mall, near the
Graft residence. According to the
newspaper account, instead OF fol-
lowing these instructions the nurse
is said to have taken the children
to her home, where she left them
to play in an upper room of the
house, while she herself entertained
several friends.
Suddenly little Fraser was heard
to cry out. Rushing to the room,
Carrie and her friends, found the
little fellow doubled up on the floor
with foam coming from his mouth.
1t is stated that the baby had a piece
of candy in it's hand, and it was at
first thought that it had choked IN
biting off an extra large piece. The
bows windpipe was found clear. and
the case appeared uneXplainable un'
til one of the inmate of the house
found lying on the floor broken
cup. which was known to have con-
tanned concentrated lye. The child
had eaten the yle.
The boy was rushed to his home.
and in a few minutes several physl-
clans were on the scene and lmme-
diately gave the child eme,lcs, with
out affording any apparent relief, to
the little sufferer. The patient was
taken to the city hospital and he
died several hours later. The nurse
had been engaged by Mrs. Graft on
the day that she took the children
out. She had no formal recommen-
dations. She is now in Jail, but that
is poor consolation for the agonized
father and mother of the baby.
How many parents of this city
know where are their babies when
the nurse takes them for an outing
after the mothers have tucked them
away in their little carriages, kissed
them "bye-bye," and counseled the
nurse to take him out for cou-
pie of hours, be careful with him,
and do not go off this street
some other named street? Keep a
watch. now and then, and you will
ascertain where your little one is
taken and cared for. The more con-
fidence you have in your nurse, the
more rigid make your surveillance.

that Wickersham shared in the fee
paid by the sugar trust to Henry w.
Taft in the suit brought against the
trust by the receiver of the Pennsyl-
vania Sugar Refining Company. The
chief trouble here is that Attorney
Genera Wickersham had denied
sharing in the fee paid to the law
firm of which he and the Presidents S
brother were members. Another
trouble is-if such things are trou-
blesome to such lawyers-that Mi.
Wickersham is using the govern
ment's legal department in the in

uncle Joe's characteristic talk
on economy to number of school
boys must have given them some
queer ideas about saving. AS one
boy aptly put it, 1T was funny to
hear MI Cannon speak of eating ten
cent meals hen he smokes three for
a. dollars cigars" But that form of
economy is practised far more often
than most Of us suppose. Many
men economise on boots and shoes
and clothing for their families that
they may indulge in unlimited drinks
during each day Others feel too
poor to buy many groceries but spend
freely for tobacco, and there are still
others that stint themselves on nee
essities that they may buy expensive
automobiles. Verify, economy with
some people is strange thing.

Poor Old Bill.

There is a general impression that
President Taft has been badly bum
coed. The Columbia State says "he
is the victim of unsoDhistication
coupled with a big soft heart. 1t is
a shame that his relatives and friends
loaded him with that cabinet. No
sooner does interest in the Ballin-
ger-Wickersham conduct begin to
peter out because of the known bias
of the court, than Representative Nc
kinley publicly establishes the fact
