APPolNTEEs ANXIOUS,

The word having gone forth to
county central committees that in
dorsements must be given to candi-
dates for the several positions to be
vacated, county organizatio are now
gradually getting together. The fact
the Endorsements are made, however,
it does not necessarily follow that
there will be appointments. In fact
there promises to be many candidates
for the positions to be open particu-
larry for the better paying ones as
public utilities commissioner and state
land commissioner
Some of the Republican officials
who are holding appointive positions
now are ..ather anxious to have their
successors walking in on them famil-
lar with the work of their depart
ments before the first of the year. They
have some shifting to do themselves
and if they are to leave their posts
want to be in a position to do so as
early as possible following the ex-
piration Of their respective terms, it is
said.

terday's meeting of the city council
was pretty rotten. Just one real
bright spot shows through the mud
die OF business put out of the way
by the aldermen and that was the
quick, unquestiOned passage of the
council committees quiz Of Jake
Loeb school methods.
This took the form of a list of
questions prepared by the commit
tee which the council will ask the
school board. If the list is answered
fairly some red-hOt facts about the
relations of big business and the
board, the letting of valuable con-
tracts, the firing of union teachers
and discrimination for and against
workers Of the board because of
their religious and political afilia-
tons will be disclosed.
Just two more important matters
that smelled clean were showed over.
One was the granting of the contract
for the refreshments and the pas
sage of plans for dancing on the new
municipal pier.
The other was a slam at ThOmp-
son administration use of contracts
for garbage and ash removal After
Aid. Merriam, Kennedy and ROdTi-
guez told of instances where poor
team owners were forced to come
across" to their ward boss before
they could get work for their teams
on the city payroll, the council
passed a report of the finance com
mittee calling for the abolition of
pork barrel methods in the pick
ing Of city teams.
Aid. CulleTton answered Merriam
with a remark about cheap stuff"
Merriam fired back like this:
Eyes, it is cheap stuff when the
administration is taking so cents or
81 day out of the mouths of poor
team owners in return for the job of
hauling for the city. That is cheap

purpose it is no longer cheap stuff"
The list of "bOners" which the aid
ermen pulled is longer. They de-
feated Aid. MerTiam's attempt to let
the people get a chance to decide
whether they wanted to raise the
salaries of the $4,000 municipal
judges to $4,000.
Kennedy called attention to the
fact that they refused a $3.50 a
month increase to City Hall clerks,
many of whom are getting less than
SIS a month Merriam wanted the
matter placed on the ballot, but was
beaten in the vote. Aid. Utpatel
spoke for the fat raise. He was
candidate at the last judicial cleo
ton.
Mayor Thompson did his little bat
toward soaking the taxpayers when
he vetoed order for the purchase Of
the municipal garbage fleet to take
a big contract out of the hands OF
political henchman.
Big Bill. did the Chicago Title and
Trust Co. a big favor when he We
toed an: order to register all the hand
bought by the city under the Tor
rens system. This simple manner
of registration which was adopted
many years ago, but never put into
effect, would knock the trust COM
pany on the head and put an end to
real estate sharks.
The mayor also vetoed an ordi-
nance to place city Iaborers under
civil service.
In spite of a long argument by
Aid. Watson and Merriam, the coUn-
Gil passed an ordinance introduced
by Aid. Captain to let the City Rail-
ways Co. take over the Chicago and

west on 63d st. to ArgO.
