MERELY COMMENT

Pres. Wilson didn't favor the cleo
ton of Ham Lewis because he was
Ham Lewis, but because Illinois
Democrats favored Lewis at pri-
mary vote.
And that won't affect Woodrow
Wilson's private opinion of Ham
Lewis after reading Ham Lewis pri-

vate opinion of Woodrow Wilson in
the Peoria Star letter.
So don't fall down and worship
Ham with the notion that he's going
to hand out the federal jobs in Hi
nois. Gov. Dunno will be much
closer to the throne
IT Chicago really needs the money,
it would be fool politics to vote
against that bond issue merely to en-
barrass Mayor Harrison.
There's too darn much petty poll
tics in Chicago much fighting
individuals and too little pulling to-
gether for the general good.
Now that the senatorial deadlock
is busted, let's forget all the bosses
and get ready to go to the ball game.
The best man for alderman ought
to be elected in each ward without
regard to whether he's a Democrat,
Republican, Progressive, Socialist or
Independent.
And the best man is the one who
will honestly represent all of the peo-
pie instead of merely few of them.
What church or party he belongs
to has about as little to do with the
city's business as the color of his
hair or the size of his socks.

can avoid it and the proposed Mil
waukee go is just week after his
scheduled fight with Joe Rivers in
Gotham. If Cross defeats Rivers he
will be a great drawing card and will
want more money than the Mil
