Named.

CHICAGO. June 4-Judge NJ. j..
Wade, Democratic national committee
man from Iowa, member of the arrange
nents committee for the Baltimore con-
Vention. arrived here today, and left
later for Baltimore. Judge Wade, who
has been mentioned for the national
chairmanship II Clark is nominated,
talked with number of Republicans
and said:
II haven't changed my opinion that
Taft Will be nominated. l know enough
about the affairs OF national committees
to know that when a bunch Of men
undergo attacks as the Taft men on
this committee are, they are not doing
1t for fun. Also. I suspect that they
knew just how the game would be
played in the committee before they
went into II.
Il believe the Democratic outlook is
good. l expect several ballots at Bal
timore. l have not altered my belief
that Clark will be nominated"

W|CKERSHAM, ANGRY,
DECLARES SENATE
ISN'T UP ON FACTS
Adjustment of Commerce
Court "Uncalled For, Ill
timed, and Partisan"

Attorney General Wickersham is both
aggrieved and deeply incensed at the
action of Congress in abolishing the
Commerce Court. In his opinion It Is
the worst blow the judiciary Of the
country has ever experienced. He de-
clares that such action was uncalled
for and unwarranted, intimating that
the men who voted and talked against
the court did not know what they were
about.
The action that abolishes the court. he
said today, Is purely partisan. THE
Commerce Court is and has been an
effective organization" he declared,
but 1t has had no chance to demon
strate either it's ability or usefulness to
the country, owing to the fact that 1t
has only been in operation a year. II
Congress had waited another year the
court would have justified its creation
and proven its right to existence.
with FIVE judges of the court in oof-
fee being shifted to various parts of
the country, the District court calen-
dars, now crowded beyond belief with
business cases, could be cleared, and
the country would get quicker justice.
This program was being followed by
Chief Justice White and the judges have
been shifted to all sections"
Mr.. Wickersham does not agree with
the views of Senator Bacon with re-
spect to the court. The Attorney Gen.
eral says that the Senator's speech Is
sufficient indication that he Is not con-
versant either with the law or the fac,
regarding the court. He strongly de-
plores, he says, the action of certain
members of Congress in bringing about
the designations of the judges. Though
he will not give extended expression of
his views with respect to the legaliz-
ing of these enforced designations. be-
cause he may have to fedend the Con-
gressional action in court, the Attorney
General said he believes from an Off
hand view Of the matter that the action
10 not legal.
With respect to the remarks of Sem
ator Overman, the Attorney General
said that they were i'll timed. The
judges, who haev been on cross-conti-
mental trips, he explained, had no al
lowance otehr than the $10-a-day sal
ary, and that they suffered a loss Of
these trips.
Criticism of the Commerce Court by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
was also ill-advised, according to the
Attorney General.

the clean government candidate for
mayor. The audience was not very
large, some of those present were
friends of woszczynsxi. Among other
arguments that were heard why
Woszczynski should be defeated? was
the fact that THE TINES stands for
clean government in West Hammond.
and because Virginia Brooks stands for
clean government. They held the peo-
pie of West Hammond ignorant enough
to take stock in such arguments They
tried to make 1t appear that just be-

Brooks Is not a voter. that she should
not be interested in getting a clean

that If Mr.. Woszczynskf is elected that
Miss Brooks would be the mayor, just
as though Mr.. Woszczynski was not a

EAST STATE
BOOSTERS

The East state Street Improvement
association met last evening at the
American Trust & Savings bank and
discussed the question of deep sewer
on State street and other improvement
c. w. Delaney had suggestion for
a deep sewer that would serve the city
for the next thirty years, but the cost
would be 100000. and it was thought
to be too elaborate a plan to receive
the serious consideration of the prop
erty owners.
The idea is, however. that a sewer
ought to be constructed on State street
that will be deep enough to drain the
deepest basement on the street per-
fectly. Only by constructing such a
sewer will the people on the street be
warranted in putting up buildings that
will be of the high character that the
street deserves.
There now seems to be no question
that the sidewalks will be widened
two feet on both sides. George Long
is the only one on the street who is OBJ
jecting.
The plan to widen the alley between
Sibley and State streets is meeting
with some opposition, but the pronot-
ers of the plan believe that they will
be able to overcome all opposition to
the plan when the petition for the i'm
provement is circulated.
