over the outlook and claim that every.
thing points to big Democratic vic.
tory.
Much enthusiasm Is felt over the
fact that no civil service law protects

c. F. Wiehe. the we'll known lumber.
man and member Of the Illinois Manu-.
facturers Association, hits out from
the shoulder when he says In letter
to Major Thomas H. Rees, indorsing
the plan Of the government to relieve
the river congestion:
while It is laudable on the part
OF some OF the city oficials to talk
economy, there is no economy In d.
verting the commerce Of a city like
the city Of Chicago and driving It to
other ports, and 1t Is question
whether the economist through his
parsimonious efforts kills the COM
merce OF great commercial city like
Chicago, and will not be forever
damned by future generations. We are
the third commercial city In the world
and We believe that when the cen.
sus Is taken II will show that Chicago
ia the second manufacturing city In
the world, and as every city In the
world Is building and constructing to
relieve congestion Chicago should
keep apace in this respect by con.
structing bridges over the river that
give 2O0.foot span and thus relieve
both the navigation and street traffic
congestion that exists SO seriously In
the city. The agitation for subways
should be made, which would greatly
relieve the delays caused by the open
ing of the bridges to street traffic."
Hurry up those subways.
Why should elections for Municipal
Judges be held In the fall? All NUM-
cipal officers should be elected In the
spring.
