ROGER SULLIVAN HELPED BEAT MERRIAM IN
7TH-COM. EDISON STOCK HOLDINGS BIG i


It was the Sullivan Democratic or
ganizatiOn in the 7th ward that held
the balance of power that elected
Fetzer alderman and Overcame the
amazing array Of ballots with the
name of Merriam written in.
In three different precincts Of the
9TH, Sullivan captains are known to
have favored MerTiam-til ordered
to beat Merriam. They went so far
as to tell their precinct workers, and
friends of Merriam, that Merriam
was going to be elected. The re-
igious issue was the motive. These
Sullivan Democrats didn't like the
way the Fetzer-Jake Loeb-Thomp-
son-Lundin combine was attacking
Merriam as an ally Of the Teachers
FEEDER" ton.
The straight and positive dope was
passed along in at least three SUIli-
van precincts that Merriam was to
be put over. This was on Sunday
and Monday. The three precincts are
soIidly Sullivan and deliver a Demo-
cratic majority whenever needed.
Nobody in the 7th reckons them any
thing else than pawns Of Roger Sui
Ivan.
Monday night the orders came di-
rectly from the top Of the Sullivan
organization that Fetzer was the
candidate to back. The precinct cap
tains threw away their personal feel
ings and delivered.
Hugh Reid, secretary Of the Wood
row Wilson Independent league in

the 1916 campaign, said today that
anyone who chooses to study past
and present election figures of the
7th ward will see that Roger SuIi-
van threw all his strength to Fetzer.
Precincts where Woodrow Will
son ran strong for president, Fetzer
the Republican was strong for alder
man, while Merriam the enemy of
gas and traction grabs, the one man
hardest for the Commonwealth Ed
ison Co. to thwart in the city coun-
Gil, was weak in these same pre-
cincts, said Reid.
81 don't know for sure why SuIIl-
van did it. According to state Utili-
ties commission records a year ago
Sullivan was the holder of 1886
shares of stock in the Common
wealth Edison Co., while John P.
Hopkins, the political partner of Sui
Ivan, held 14,3OO shares of Edison
stock. The stock is way above par
and they are miIliOnaires on their
Edison holdings alone.
There are Guardians of Liberty
who claim that SuIliVan's first loyal
ty is to the Catholic church in poll
tics. It was on that issue Sullivan
was beaten for the u S. senate by
Larry Sherman. On Sullivan's show
ing Tuesday in the 18th ward, how
ever, I would say his first loyalty is
to the Commonwealth Edison Co."

Of, the singing. There was preach
ing only at night, except on Sundays
when there were two services. The
n Getting continued until Sunday ev-
ening, Oct. IA. The weather was
fair and inviting except on one ev-
ening. The attendance was large
from the first, for there were great
attractions. During the meeting
there were eighty-two additions to
the church: forty eight by confess
sion of faith and thirty-four by
statement or letters from other
congregations. Brother Coils
came not as a stranger in our
midst. Early in 1914, soon after
the death of our brother, II. d.
Clark, and before Brother Darsie as
sumed the passionate, Brother Coils
held a remarkable meeting here re-
sulting in one hundred and eighty
five additions. He was popular and
greatly beloved as a ~esult of his
former visit, and during his recent
stay made many new friends and
strengthened former tics. His SER
mons were able and convincing, con-
spicuous for earnestness and pathos.
Mr.. Boatwright had not previously
been in our city. He is a capable
leader of song, his solos being es-
pecially attractive. He greatly as
sisted in daily visitations. A promi-
nent factor in the success of the
meeting was the work done day by
day in the town and community by
these evangelists of Gospel preach
ing and song. They will always re-
ceive cordial greeting.
