BRINGS
PRIMARY CONTEST
TO HEATED CLOSE

CHICAGO, Sept 12-Encouragedb by
the result in Maine, In the belief that
nomination spells electing. three Rep
ublican gubernatorial aspirants In this
state-Colonel Frank L. Smith, Colonel
Frank O. Lowden and Morton D. Hull
made their final appeals to voters
today. So close have the three men
run during the campaign that on the
eve of the election, no one besides
the most fragrant partisan would make
any prediction as to the outcome
Republicans are also encouraged by
what threatens to become a most
serious split in the Democratic ranks.
Governor Edward F. Dunno was en-
dorsed by the Democratic state con-
vention and until two days ago had no
opposition for denomination But the
Sullivan wing Of the party pulled an
eleventh hour surprise by putting up
William Brinton with the subsequent
result that much bitter feeling has
been engendered. Impartial observ.
ers declare, however, that Dunno will
again be nominated. The governor
has taken no active part in the cam
paign. N
The last of the political red fire
and silver oratory was thrown into
the political arena during the day.
The three G. o. P. candidates held
forth in loop theatres and spoke to
huge crowds.

GRAND JURORS REPORT
FARM IN GOOD SHAPE

When the grand jury started on its
investigation OF the county institu-
tons yesterday, the members had
planned to recommend the erection of
an insane ward on the county poor
farm to relieve the county jail and
Home of Friendless from caring for
the county's insane. They decided to-
day at the close of the investigations
not to make such a recommendation.
It was found that at both the
county Jail and the Home of the
Friendless the insane people are kept
in such way that they do not annoy
the other inmates. The matron of
the womans Jail said that if the in
sane were put in separate institu-
ton it would remove valuable
source of income from the Home for
the Friendless.
The grand jury in its report this af-
ternoon stated that all the institu-
lions were in fine condition. Water
pipes at the Jail and the Home for
the friendless need several repairs,
however.
The poor farm is in especially good
shape. All the members agreed that

TO LAST TEN YEARS

81 will repair the Main street bridge
and give bond that it will stand up
under all traffic for ten years for
$4,000, but not one cent less" said
Frank Burk, head of the Burk Con-

here today, getting out bids on sew
eral of the county bridges.
Mr.. Burke figured that if the county
were to pay him such an amount of
money, it would save a little money
off of the interest which would be paid
on the bonds for a new bridge.
