PRESS EXPRESSIONS
AS TO B, r, CALDWELL

st. Louis Republic: Among the
hopeful signs in Illinois politics may
fairly be ranked the candidacy for the
democratic gubernatorial nomination
of Ben F. Caldwell, of Chatham,
banker, farmer and ex-congressman.
Mr.. Caldwell has. had four terms in
the lower house of congress. Pre-
vious to going to Washington he saw
service in both houses of the Illinois
legislature. He is an honest and an
able man and a campaigner of zest
ana experience. Mr.. Caldwell s
friends may support him with all the
greater confidence because certain
that, should some other democrat be
preferred before him, he will be
found helping on his rivals election
instead of charging conspiracy of
nefarious interests"
Belleville News Democrat; On
Caldwell's character for strict hon
esty there is no question mark. He
is thoroughly tried and tested man
in business and official life and has
farmer and a banker and has been
successful in both occupations. He
has been a congressman and a state

for probity and efficiency in both de

Good Words for TaVenner

He has been a Washington correspon-
dent for this newspaper a long time,
so that he is well known to the Jour
nal and its readers.
Tavenner is, perhaps, the most wide
awake and the best informed news
paper correspondent at the national
capital. He is fully abreast with the
best political and economic thought OF
the day; he is imbued with the pro-
gressive spirit and devoted to the re-
alization of progressive reforms; he is
alert, vigilant, jealous of the good
name of the democracy and outspoken
and self-sacrificihg in his support. A
better man could not occupy a seat
in congress. Let the democrats of the
18th district see that Clyde H. Taven,
ner is nominated and elected to the ma.
tional body in which his services are
| so much needed.

BRUNER MAKES ANSWER
TO M'CASKRIN ATTACK

Rock Island, April editor The
Argus: On Saturday evening, March
9, Harry NJ. McCaskrin spoke in Rey-
nolds. He went out there ostensibly
to promote his candidacy for states
attorney, but from what | can learn,
his real object was to attack James
N. Johnston, one of his opponents for
the office of states attorney, and also
myself, and the way / am conducting
the sheriffs office.
In regard to the way l handle the
sheriff's office, | have 10 apology 10
make to him or anyone else, but as he
misrepresented a great many different
things that evening, 1 believe, in JUS
tice to everyone, that l should correct
some of his Measurements. He &C
cuses me of grating OFF the county by
keeping the Jail full of poor people.
1t is the sheriffs duty to receive all
prisoners brought there with the
proper papers.
In regard to feeding the prisoners, l
am allowed 80 cents a day, while every
one of my predecessors received 40
cents. Another thing which must be
taken into consideration is the fact
that the cost of living at the present
time is much higher than it has ever
been before. McCaskrin says l am
starving the prisoners. Now, anyone
who believes this statement is invited
to come and investigate the truth OF
this assertion for himself and see
if the prisoners are not as clean, well
fed and well kept as any in the state
of Illinois, even where 40 cents or 80
pared with the 80 cents which l re
ceive.
AS to his statement accusing me OF
having lot of deputies sitting around
the Office talking politics, l am doing
the work with two and sometimes
three deputies less than my predeces
sor, and in addition, have two more
courts to care for. If any of the tax
payers want to know what my depu
, ties do, shall be glad to offer them
full explanation if they will step into
the Office any time when l am there
, and that is pretty much all the time
, during business hours.
Now the reason McCaskrin Il
attacking me and the Office is because
, II show a preference for James NJ
, Johnston for states attorney. The rea
