lighted. This will spoil US.

THE CHICAGO DEFEAT.

Carter Harrison, five times mayor
OF Chicago. representative OF public
service corporations. vice. combine
and organized grafters, is again mayor
overwhelming an opponent who was
supposed to be representative Of the
best citizenship and best character in
the Windy City.
Harris4h received about 10 per cent
more votes than ex-Mayor Dunno, who
ran on the Democratic ticket four
years ago. as an opponent OF the trac-
ton companies. Prof. Merriam. who
has been conspicuous as a reformer
and student OF civic questions, re.
ceived about Z per cent fewer votes
than Mayor Busse, who ran on the
Republican ticket four years ago as
machine candidate and representative
OF the worst elements OF the Repub.
hcan party. The conclusion is incon-
testible. The majority OF the people
OF Chicago do not want good govern
ment or honest government. A good
candidate on the Democratic ticket is
defeated. a good candidate upon the
Republican ticket is defeated. In both
elections the worst elements won r
decisive victory.
Elections like these are discourage
