DR.. Rowland Gilmore has placed
$25.00 in the hands of the agricul-
tural department for the purpose of
helping to standardiZe and improve
the poultry of this county. 1t has
been decided to use this money in
giving boys and girls in the sur
rounding districts thirty pure-bred
eggs each with the understanding
that they are to hatch these eggs and
take good care of the chickens after
they are hatched. They will be ex-
pected to work into whatever breed
they choose from so that in another
year at least they will have only the
one breed of chickens. Gile is now
selecting those who will profit by DR..
Gilmore's generosity and anyone de-
string to join this club is invited to
correspond with him.
There will be meeting of the
poultry club in the agriculture room
of the high school building Thursday

CITE AFTER EFFECTS
OfEXpOSITIONS

Chicago, April docs the good
that world expositions do live after
the gates are closed and is the evil
inferred with the key? .-
This is the question many in San
Francisco are asking and St. Louis
folks have answered in various ways
But Chicago residents believe the
Worlds Columbian exposition, given
in 1898, has been worth more to Chi
cagoans than it cost. .
Some few Chicagoans believe, how.
ever, that the unemployed evil" had
its origin in the exposition. Thou
sands came here, it is said, expecting
to receive work and were unable tC
leave.
Elevated railroads had been talked
of and had been tried but had never
been proven until along came the
fair. And the Jackson Park elevated
railroad was first used to handle the
vast crowds thronging Chicago to see
the fair. Talk of tearing down the
road after the fair was quashed when
the most populous suburbs Of the city
grew along it's route.
Standing in Jackson Park, which
was the exposition grounds, is the
Field Columbian Museum. Scientists
call it a monument to the 1898 ex-
position. Near it is the old German
building, built by the German gov
ernment. The park itself is the best
gift the fair gave to Chicago. 1t
was laid out and heautified for fair
purposes.
Leading to the ex-fair grounds is
Chicago's own midway, the best park
ed boulevard in the world. Some OF
the city's best residences have been
built along the Midway. 1t leads to
the University of Chicago. And all
around town the visitor sees count
less bronze and other statuary, built
temporarily for the fair, which now
is used for the Identification of the
city.

appealed to those present to write to
the commissioner of the general land
office at Washington protesting
against the stand of the government
concerning the ruling requiring au-
ditors to turn all bonus money, Sc
cured at the tax judgment sale of
ditch lands, over to the government
The auditor has at all times con-
tended that the bonus should go to
the county. He has brought to his
support Senators Nelson and Clapp
and Congressman Lindbergh, Steen-
erson and others, but as yet they have
been unable to cause the land depart
ment to change it's ruling. Last
year the bonus, or excess, amounted
to $4,000 and it is expected that ap-
proximately $4,000 will be received
this year.
Would Apply on Liens.
The land commissioner rules that
the excess over and above the EDELIN,
quent interest on the total drainage
assessment" for which the land has
been sold, must be paid to the land
Office before the patent can be issued.
It is this ruling that George protests.
When ordered to do so by the pur-
chasers of the 1914 sale, the auditor
has remitted to the land offices the
total excess received at the sale in
order that they might receive their
patents. This has always been done
under protest, and in case the ruling
is reversed by the department or by
action Of congress-, the money will
be refunded to the county and ap-
piled on the liens of the lands affect
ed. Protests will also be made to
remittances which will be made as
a result of the sale of next month.
It is matter of great Importance

ing of thousands of dollars to the
taxpayers. Auditor Georgs' stand is
being generally endorsed.

DEMOCRATS TO HOLD
PRIMARIES TOMORROW
Fight for Counselor and Third Ward
Aldermen to be Warm.
4 CANDIDATES IN THIRD.
While the Contest for Solicitor is
Between Messrs. WinsOn Gott and
George E. RulIman.

Democrats Of the city will hold their
municipal primary election tomor-
row afternoon for the purpose of nomi-
mating a candidate for Mayor. Coun-
selor. and two aldermen from each Of
the four wards.
There is opposition only as to the
candidates for the counselorsnip, and
the aldermanic candidates who would
represent the interests of the Third
ward. For counselor, two candidates
are in the field. These are Winson G.
Gott. and George F. RuIlman. Mr..
Gott has been affiliated with the pro-
gressiye wing of the party for the last
several years and he has been waging
a quiet, presonsl campaign, appealing
directly 20 the voters to secure the
nomination. Among other things. he
stands upon his record as city collector
and treasurer, in which position he
served the municipality for several
terms.
Mr.. Rullman is among the youngest
attorneys of the city, and it is general
~ known that he has the support of
the organization forces under Dr.. Geo.
Wells. who is the city, as we'll as the
county leader of the party. Mr.. Rull-
man is the youngest son of MIR. Will
lam II. Rullman, pharmacist, Of West
street. and who formerly served the
city as collector and treasurer. Young
Rullmsn also was identified with the
Progressive Democrats during the last
few years. John S. Strahorn was
among the cary aspirants for the office
of legal adviser of the Council, but lt
is understood that he has withdrawn
from the race, thus leaving the field
to Messrs. Gott and Rullman.
The fight for aldermanic nomina-
tions in the third ward is a four cor
nered one Richard G. CLANCY would
succeed himself. The other cand-
dates are Messrs. John Levy, g well
known business man; Nevett Steele,
Of Murray Hill and John Stevens, a
blacksmith. With four men in the
race the contest, therefore, promises
to be an interesting one, with the re-
suit in doubt.
Mayor Strange has no opposition 10
his denomination, noT have Elmer T.
Parkinson, and Charles W. Smith, who
would succeed themselves as aldermen
from the hrst ward. In the second
ward the aldermanic candidates are
John II Wells, (incumbcnt), and Ed
ward Z. Beavin, while in the fourth
ward, the candidates are Charles o.
Dulin and Frank Jewell.
The primaries will be held between
