years, and during that time he has
been one of Chicago's most active
citizens. He is a retired member of
the Chicago Police Department,

years ago; my father was born in
Lebonon, Warren County, Ohio, he
was a pioneer of Ohio, and active in

and fairly prosperous but devoted all

convince the authorities that he was

customary to pick up all colored peo-
pie that could not show papers and
sell them at auction. On this occa-
sion the colored ann was brought by
Mr.. Honory, the fatheri-n-law of Mr..
Potter Palmer, the owner of the fa-
nous Palmer House. The bell was
one that was taenk from a teamster
that was arrested with a number of
companions. The teamsters were in
the government service and hauled a
load of army SUPPLIES from Cincinnati,
Ohio. When the teamsters were call
I'd to trial and ased if they had any

Politicians or People?

Senator Harding of Ohio, who is
himself a candidate for the Repub
lican nomination for President, in
ssts that "The World has made mis-.
take in declaring that it would sup
port an independent" because par.
ties are necessary in this country
and "the people should stick to 'hcif
political organizations"
1t is true that parties are neces-
sary in this country, but they must
be honest parties thai stand for hon
est issues; otherwise they are men
ace to the political stability of the
Nation.
The Senator from Ohio IS quite
mistaken when he says that "thc
people should stick to their political
organizations" 1t is the duty on the
political organizations to stick to the
people. 1t is because the organiza-
tions have failed miserably in this
duty that voters everywhere are de-
manding a new deal
The party organizations to-day are
merely patronage brokers. as Sen.
Harding well knows. Left to them
selves, there is not a principle to di-
vide between them. Except for the
brains and character of President
Wilson, there is nothing left of the
Democratic Party except the name.
Except for the money of the great
business interests that have so long
sustained it, there Is nothing left of
the Republican Party except 4 name
and an appetite.

up of a we'll to do class; it was then
located between 55th Street, south to
about 72nd Street, and State Street,
ives to Halsed Street,. 1t had several
hotels, bans, department stores, and
various manufactures. The largest
hotel was the Hotel Julian, located
at 63rd Street, and Hardware Ave,
this hotel also had a theatre in con-

named afetr Juliana Marlowe, a eel
ebrated actress and tragedienne of
that day; this hotel is still standing
and is considered to be one of the
best in the city, at the time of its
building it was called the best hotel
and theatre in the west.
The district west of Halsted street,
did not commence to build up until
after the Worlds Fais of 1893, and
the spot where lived was out among
a number of small farms, the largest
of these farming tracts was owned
by Hetty Green, the escentrict owner
of millions. A number of years ago
she sold the tract to the City of Chi
cago, and it has been built into
