DAILY COMMENT ON

Jack Johnson has gone:
So has Joe Levy, First Knight OF
the Bedchamber.
It's an III hot spell that doesn't
bring a suffering city some good
news.
But the federal authorities must
have it in for Chicago. They, want to
bring EN- back.
The Building Trades bosses now
are buying advertising in the trust
newspapers to try and explain them
selves to the people.
The wall of these ads, for which the
bosses pay real money, is that they
should not be made to suffer any
more loss of money through labor
troubles"
We haven't heard of any building
trades boss going to the county agent
for relief lately.
But we've heard of many building
trades worker being strictly up
against it.
Any time we notice one of the
DuuuluR DOOOCO guns hOAGAy
we may think of sympathizing with
them.
Possibly It would be proper for the
women Of Illinois to offer thanks to
Hearst before going to bed at nights.
Hearst, you know, Is the guy who
caused the legislature to pass the wo-
man suffrage bill.
Doubling Thomases have question
ed this; they are wrong; every
Hearst Harrison legislator opposed
the bill, thus causing real legislators
to pass the bill.
If we happened to be a politician
and wanted to run for Office, we'd pay
Hearst real money for his opposition.
The husbands of Chicago should
rise in protest against the dressmak-
ers giving the ladies skirts with pis-
fol nOcketS

toll pockets?
Chicago politicians suspect the
honesty Of downstate politicians just
about the same way downstate politi-
clans suspect the honesty Of Chicago
politicians.
And far be it from US to be third
man in the wing and say that either
is wrong.
Speaking in large, general way,
politicians are perfectly honest-so
long as some one is looking.
Personal property assessment Of
Marshall Field & Co. is $685., 900.
Next thing you know, some one at
Marshall Field & Co. will give his
right name.
Having smelled the plant Of the
Chicago Reduction Co., it is to be
hoped the mayor and council will
come to some rapid decision.
The present contract with the COM
pany for the removal of garbage ex-
pires August 81 of this year.
II no new contract is entered into
before that date, Chicago household
ers will have to attend to the removal
of all garbage themselves.
It doesn't need any great magma
ton to see what that will mean in a
city of 100000 sweltering under a
summer sun.
Mrs. Elder, the Brooklyn suffraget,
says she won't need one of the new
skirts with pistol pockets in it.
Mrs. Elder has applied for and OBJ
tanned permission to carry revolver,
but says that she'll carry it in a hol-
ster with a cartridge belt attached.
We don't know of any wild ami
mails in Brooklyn-outside of the or
binary male population-bu it is pos
sible that Mrs. Elder desires the bal
lot.
Isn't it a curious thing, by the way,
that every person who gets caught

AGlance at Current Topics and Events

Berlin Feb. 2.-Military and naval
men are among those who predict that
Europe is about to be plunged into a
great war. Some go so far as to fix
the date of hostilities for April at the
latest Others say that it will be post
poned until summer, asserting that the
kaiser has given his militant Austrian
ally, the Archduke Franz Ferdinand,
to understand that Germany will I'M
der no circumstances go to war until
after the celebration of Emperor Will
liam's silver jubilee on June 10.
When the members of the war party
are asked why war is inevitable they
say that it will come as the Irresistible
climax of the period of strain under
which Europe has lived for the last five
years. Russian and Austrian antagO-
nisms, they explain, will be the imme-
diate cause, while the underlying mo-
tive will be the long time feud between
Savism and Germanism.
Others assert that war must come in
order to decide the question of German
or British supremacy in Europe.
In 1S49 Emperor William l., then the
young crown prince of Prussia. visited
st. Petersburg, when an old Russian
soothsayer read his future. He was
told that three of the most important
events in German history would take
place respectively in 1871. 1888 and
1913. In 1871 Germany defeated France
and became an empire. The year 1888
was the three kaise%s' year. when the
old emperor died. only to be followed
to the grave a hundred days later by
his son. Emperor Frederick. In 1913,
the soothsayer said, Germany would be
involved in a tremendous European
war

Development Of Our National Parks.

Washington, Feb. 3--To have the
national parks of the west ready for
tourists expected during the year Of
the Panama-Pacific exposition Walter
l.! Fisher, the secretary of the interior,
estimates that an expenditure Of $7}3,-
coo will be needed in addition to the
$22S,0O0 that congress sra 4 for use
last year.
The national parks said Z secre-
tary, constitute ideal recreation
grounds for thousands of people. De.
veIopment and use of the parks are
seriously retarded by the lack of AIDE
quate roads and trails. Until sufficient
money is appropriated for beginning
comprehensive plan of development
the parks will fall far short of render

are intended"
