mer convention climate.
Don't forget that.
And II has the accommodation for
convention that no other city can
boast Of.
Don't forget that, either.
In the meantime Chicago people are
going to work hard to bring both Ma
tional Conventions here. A guarantee
fund has to be raised first, and Fred
w. Upham, who Is chairman Of the
committee on finances, started out to
get subscriptions. There Is a commit
tee Of twenty.one in charge Of the
work of raising the necessary money.
There are seven republicans, seven
democrats and seven members Of tho
Chicago Association Of Commerce on
the committee to make It a wholly
non.partisan project. 1t Is agreed that
only one.half of the money subscribed
will be collected in the event that
Chicago gets only one Of the big
conventions.
I'VE want both Of them. and 1t will
be the best business proposition Chi.
cago has undertaken in years." said
Mr.. Upham. I'VE might entertain one
convention for 100000, whereas the
cost of taking care OF both conven.

could be a saving Of $4,000 in ar.
