County Option and Cook County

"A few weeks ago a statement appeared in
OF the Chicago newspapers to the effect that the Anti
Saloon League leaders favorably inclined to-
wards making fight in the next legislature for
County Local Option law exempting Cook county.
Some OF the down-state exchanges have taken this
statement seriously because the Chicago paper in
tmated that il based information from Anti
Saloon League headquarters
There is truth in the report 1t originated in
the mind of the reporter who in all probability based
his supposition the fact that in 1911 the Anti
Saloon League did introduce a county option bill in
that session of the legislature which exempted the
county of Cook. However, the county option bill
which was before the last general assembly exempted
county in the state 1t is entirely certain that
a bill exempting Cook county would be constitutional
There Is no question that Coos county is the
great stumbling block in securing county local option
On the other hand, county local option would not

the dog in the Manager 1t is the application of the
slogan: Home rule for Chicago Chicago rule for
the state"

false report that Cook county was to be eliminated
from the operations of a county option law have
rightly located the forces in Cook county which puts
the county in the position of bitter opposition this
ILL which would i'll Way affect the saoonkeepers
OF the county. AS they point out, it is the United
societies that against residential district option,
the ant-shppng bill and in fact any and every
that will aid in putting territory anywhere dry
and keeping it dry They afraid to let the people
have chance the saloon question and they use
their influence to put Cook county against the
Down-State Tired of Cook County's United
Societies Rule.
In the last assembly, the county option bill was
placed by the members Of the senatorial license coin
lnittee, in subcommittee whose membership came
from Cook county and Peoria. In other words, it
given to the tender mercies Of the counties OF
Cook and Peoria. Down-state members of the
rnittee favorable to letting the senate vote
the proposition. County option would hardly affect
Peoria county any more than it would Cook county.
And yet these two counties used to block the
progress of the county local option bill.
The big majority of the Cook county members
have proved to be the of the United Societies
ready to do their bidding and because of this
fact the people down-state who becoming
and more nsstent for county local option getting
tired of the United Societies rule
At least forty-hve of the ffty-seven members of
tie house from Cook county III the last general
sembly voted against county local option and about
the proportion of senator's thus defeating it.
The contention OF our exchanges is that with
Cook county eliminated in the consideration of a
county local option BILL these servants of the United
Societies hailing from Cook county would continue
to do their bidding, and we believe that this
ton is We-founded for it will be recalled that in
1911 when the vote taken the bill with Cook
county exempted, the solid wet delegation FROM
that county voted against the bill which would grant
the rest of the counties of the state the right to
ern themselves the saloon question.
One Of the greatesr of the failure of Cook
county to get home rule questions of public SER
vice has been her unwillingness to let temperance
people of the state rid themselves through the enab-
ling act OF county option of the saloon license system
which imposes taxation without representation

truth Of the statement made by the
couple was verified in a message from
Galva, and the couple was not only
allowed to proceed but under better
conditions than when they arrived
here. They were married last May In
Cambridge, III. The husband Is an cleo
trician. Work in his line at Galva,
whore the couple had moved. became
slack and they decided to come to Me-
braska. Their funds were low. Mrs.
Lindquist would not consent to her
husbands proposal that she take what
cash they had and buy ticket to Ali
ance while he sought oth.r means OF
getting there, being determined to stay
by him. Not wishing. also to leave
Galva in a surrepticious manner, they
bought ticket to Burlington. where they
sought a room and where the meta
morphosis in Mrs. Lindquists appear
ance took place. With many a sigh
she parted with her hair and less re-
luctantly donned a suit of boys clothes.
And then they started. The people of
Pacific Junction to whom their story
was confined. were moved to pity and
Mrs. Lindquest WAS provided with a
full women's outfit and both with
money.
