judgment, less responsible for the con-
ditions.
No one who knows the political game
can at this time predict the winner.
They are all fine entries, and a good
jockey could ride either of them to
victory.
Ex-Governor Chas. s. Deneen has q
host of political friends who know the
game and how to handle their mount
The Ex-Governor possesses sixteen years
of as fine a political record as was ever
made in the state. AS States Attor-
ney of Cook County and Governor of
Illinois he has demonstrated not only
his ability but mis- knowledge Of the
wants of the people of the states. This
makes him a most probable winner.
Congressmen-at-Large Medil MeCor-
mick has made a clean, vigorous repre-
sentative in the Congress now eonven-
ing for the winter session, is well in
formed and is favorably known through
out the state. His greatest handicap
will be to disassoeiate and divorce his
candidacy from the baleful influence of
the Chicago Tribune. If it can be made
to appear that he is not responsible for
the editorial attitude of the Tribune
towards certain measures and people,
he has a splendid chance of wearing
the toga.
Mayor VIM. Hale Thompson is one
of those puzzling entries that takes to
any kind Of a track, the heavier the
better, and runs well in any kind of
weather. He is demon for speed and
punishment, and having already got q
good start, he is likely to finish in the
money. All classes of citizens in the
state-humble, high and low-admirs
his pluck, his sagacity and his fighting
qualities. Men are men with him, and
there is something about him that ap-
peals humanity to the human. The at
tempts to diseredit him have brought
to his assistance a large number of PEG.
pie who would not have been actively
interested in him. His known ability
to do things makes one feel, who would
like to ride the winner, of placing a BET
on him clear across the board.
Col. ]. Ham Lewis is to be reckoned
with. He is resoureeful, agile and q
forensic battier. Bryan nominated him
self in 1896 by his forensic ability, and
who knows but that Col. ]. Ham Lewis
may not be able to re-eleet himself in
! 1918. May the best man win.

Man and His WEIGHT.

Between forty and fifty a man who
allows his weight to remain high Is
running more danger Of an early de-
mise than he would run 1: he contract
ed typhoid fever. What Is more, If he
were stricken with that disease, bis
chance would be 10 per cent less than
normal. A man who Is thinner than
the average, on the other hand. has
less danger Of dying in the decade
than a man who tips the scales at the
normal figure.

By BEAUREGARD F. MoSELEY.
The leading political event of 1918
will be the election of United States
Senators in the states of Illinois, Iowa,
Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, South Da-
kota and Kentucky. -Four of these
states are represented by Democrats and
four by Republicans, and it is the pur-
pose of the Democrats to not only hold
their own, but to elect Democrats in
Wisconsin, Nebraska and South Dakota.
1t is urged, among other things, that
the hardest battle will be fought in
overcoming what is known as "La Fol-
lette Amerieanism." The Democrats
have already planned to re-elect Sena-
tor Lewis in Illinois, upon the dissen-
sion among the Republicans, there be-
ing three distinct political factions in
the state among the Republicans. and
it is this division that the Democrats
bank upon to re-eleet Senator Lewis.
The other known candidates for Uni
ted States Senator in Illinois are the
Mayor, VIM. Hale Thompson, Ex-Gov-
ernor Chas. S. Deneen and Congressman
at-Large Medill Mccormick, and those
suspected of having senatorial aspira-
tons are Attorney General Brundage
and Judge Advocate Chipperfeld. This
would make a beautiful field of five,
with the odds favoring Thompson, for
in this state, like in most Of the states,
there are quite a large number of Re-
publican voters who do not believe in
the conduct of the war, nor in the man
ner and method by which the country
got into it. They are not disloyal, but
they are so intensely American that they
are fearful of doing America and Amer
leans harm and injustice by oyerzealous
efforts to carry on the war in Europe
instead of waiting to have the wal
brought to them. They fear q great
mistake has been made. They are of
the opinion that no nation on earth
would in the first place dare attack us,
and that in the second place no three
nations combined in the world can lick
US if they attack us upon our home
ground, and that for this and other rea-
sons, the loss of life, the draining Of the
country Of money, food and provisions
to feed our armies and allies abroad, are
the results of poor craftsmanship, and
that no person having anything to do
with the present status Of affairs is en-
titled to reelection. This element will
favor the man who has been, in their

their struggling stage, some one had

bit Of good. Then let her lose no
time in doing it-in Offering the word
Of hope or encouragement which Is
the greatest stimulus the world ever

Hickory. oak, beech, birch, hard ma

cherry have fairly high heat values,
and only one cord of seasoned wood
Of those species Is required to equal

PUT Outside the Law.

The strangest punishment which
still survives in Great Britain under
modern law is that of "outlawry."
About ten years ago a lawyer charged
with forging a check was "outlawed"
In the Glasgow high court. By this
sentence the person Of the accused Is
declared forfeit. He cannot bear tes-
timony In a court. nor sue, nor defend
an action. He cannot act on a jury.
nor vote at an election, nor act as tn
tor or guardian to another person. II
anyone robs him he has no redress.

THE SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION
NO. 1-FFTIETH GENERAL
ASSEMBLY.

Much has been said through the col
umns of the press, in relation to the pro-
posed new Constitution, or the new Con-
stitutional Convention. If anyone will
take the trouble to look into the matter
they will learn that fully seven years
will pass away before any new Constitu-
ton could be in full force and effect il
this State.
All the Democratic and Republican
members except one Democratic State
Senator, in both branches Of the Fiftieth
General Assembly, voted in favor of the
following Senate joint resolution No. l,
Fiftieth General Assembly, which gives
the people the right to decide whether or
not they desire to revise, alter or amend
the Constitution of this State:
Senate Joint Resolution No. 1, Fiftisth
General Assembly.
Whereas, The provisions Of the Con-
stitution of this State are in many re-
speets inadequate to the present and
prospective needs Of the people; and
Whereas, By its provisions it is not
possible to submit to the people a propo-
sition to amend more than one article of
the Constitution at the same time; there
fore be it
Resolved, by the Senate, the House Of
Representatives eoneurring herein, That
a convention is necessary to revise, alter
or amend the Constitution of this State,
and that the question of the calling of
such convention shall be submitted to
the electors of this State at the rext
general election, as provided for in
Article XIV of the present Constitution.

Free Russia

The following extracts are drawn from a message sent through Every body's Magazine to the American peo- pie by Russia's great premier Lyon:
 "The newest of democracies greets America with peculiar fervor, because 1t feels that the American people can readily understand what the great Rus sian revolution means, Autocracy in Russia is dead forever. Tn it's stead will soon rise republic of peace
 We wish America to realize thoroughly that there can be but one. result of the great upheaval, and that result real democracy modelled along the lines of the American republic. cre- ating government by and for the whole people. It will mean justice and opportunity to everybody
 The name Russia once meant dark ness and oppression. It will now mean light and freedom. The new Russia will be the frankest and most liberal of re- publics
 America should feel great interest in Russian emancipation. because many of us received our first inspiration for freedom from her.
 Fundamentally, Russia has always been democratic. Only the outer shell despotic.
 ''We want America to know that Rus sia will continue the war to peace dictated by allied victory. Only on cont plete victory can our republic of peace be reared.
 Tn that struggle we are proud to have America as an ally.
 Tt would beo sentimentally fine to send American troops to the Russian front but we need machinery more Send locomotives cars, safeguards for ships. Develop Archangel. Vladivostok Kola.
 At last we are comrades of liberty.'
