Meets With Sympathy Hero.
There Ia considerable sympathy In
keokllk with the aggravation express
ed by Quincy about poor train service.
While Indignation OF Quincy was
caused by train on the Galesburg
line to that city being late every day,
but one in December, and always load
ed with Christmas shoppers, who had
too little time to shop before the re-
turn train left, the trouble made here,
is chiefly about mail from the north in
the morning, which means the princi-
pie mail of the day from Chicago, New
York, the east and the west.
The way the government is running
the railroad trains is killing off ali
chance for government ownership"
was said not by one man, but by a
hundred or SO here during the past
few months.

QUINCY FIGHT
ON LATE TRAINS
Chamber of Commerce There Sends
Complaint and Hot Words to
McAdoo About His Rail-
road Methods.
HAVOC YOU WROUGHT
Such Verbiage is Used and Demand is
Made That the Morning Train
be on Time Once in
Awhile.

The Quincy chamber of commerce
has Exaggerated a real fight on trains
being late, especially On the Buriing-
ton railroad.
The trains from the north have be-
gun their annual stunt Of being late
most Of the time in reaching Keokuk,
and the other day the morning train
did not arrive until after noon, to the
discontinue Of the district court and
all business men.
The Quincy organization has taken
UP the matter with Director General
McAdoo. and offer him the hot end of
the poker. Its communication to him
contains such paragraphs as these:
Why IL you are in earnest in your
declaration that government control of
railroads Is absolutely necessary for
the public good, do you permit intol-
cradle conditions to injure business
men of Quincy and farmers of this sec
ton Of 1llinois2
Wants Action, Not Words.
ALI manner of reasoning with these
people would scarcely explain away
the fact that the railroad company has
tampered with the passenger schedule
by unfortunately removing trains
since August last and always in the
name OF Mr.. McAdoo or the govern
ment.
Are we to judge from your silence

ic ticket at the coming primary election in op- position to Delegate Sulzer, after little consid- eration we believe we have discovered the "joke" deduced from the following facts.
 At the last election the democratic machine in its entirety-boots and followers-was for Suzer, including the Governor and the mine in spector. Later when the election board decided to issue certificate of election, the deciding vote was cast by the Governor against the machine. The decision was reversed by the court and the certificate issued to Sulzer who has held office since. From that time, the Governor has been the shining mark for the machine to hit at.
 It may be that MT. Maloney didn't think the machine should want to decapitate the Governor for having showed some courage in defying the mahine and deciding the election according to his judgment and against the machines candidate. The Governor and the mine inspector are oldtime friends; and if the latter saw the decision in the light that the governor saw it; he is by friend ship bond to stand by the governor and takes this means of showing his resentment at the machines action. However in going to the vot- CTS for the nomination on the democratic ticket; he is sure to hinder the machine and possibly de- feat it in the election of delegate to congress- The machine is behind Sulzer and Maloney is behind the Governor. But Maloney has the ad- vantage, because, aside from deviding the Demo- cratic party, he has the Republicans on his side through their support of the Governor. Con- clusively, Maloney wants to punish the machine for hitting" the Governor. Right here we ven- ture the prediction that Maloney will go down in defeat but with the satisfaction of bringing down Sulzer; although his aim is to punish the ma- chine and not Sulzer.
