for the benefit of some readers

About AL.

A large number Of republicans
are expected to vote for Al Jen-
nings in the primaries IN order
10 have a chance 70 defeat him
in the November election. At
any rate this is what some Of the
travelling men say.
Many honest, reputable demo
Gratis say they will not vote for
Jennings whatever the cost.
And for this reason some un-
principled republicans think it a
wise plan to help nominate Al TO
see democrats defeat him and
get a republican governor.
We do not know OF any repub-
licans around Elgin who would
be guilty OF such L degrading
thing, but should there be any,
we wish TO give them word OF
advice.
Ii you help to nominate Jen.
niags. beari in mind ne will be
elected Just the same. FoI
many who now say they will not
vote for him, will vote for hin
if he is forced onto them by the
republicans. They will say thai
If republicans want 10 run that
kind of man for governor, JUS
give them four years of his aq
ministration till they get thei
fill.
The lawless element will sup
port AL almost to a unit, so it be
hooyes our good citizenship t
unite on some strong man.
