MAY BE AN issue WITH
COMING JUDICIAL
ELECTION

Bernard j. Mullaney is President of
the Jury Commissioners of Cook coun-
ty.
Bernard ]. Mullaney is also Pub
licity Manager for the Peoples Gas
Light & Coke Company.
This simple coincidence it is said,
threatens to be a factor in next June's
Judicial election, according to City
Hall gossip.
Jury Commissioners are required to
prepare a list of electors qualified to
act as jurors, to select names from
such list and place them in jury box
and a grand jury box, and to be pres
ent when the names of Jurors needed
at each term of court are drawn
The Jury Commissioners are ap-
pointed by the judges of the Circuit
court
The full Circuit bench of twenty-one
| judges will be elected in June, 1921
and will be somewhat more interesting
| than usual on account of local political
| conditions and a few other conditions
| to be remedied

CHICAOGANS KICK
ON TELEPHONE TOLLS
IN CHICAGO'S OUT
LYING DISTRICTS

In the matter of telephone service
Chicago is very provincial.
Provincial with a vengence.
The Chicago Telephone Company
serves a million of Chicago people
who do not live within the municipal
limits of Chicago.
They live in the provinces.
Forty thousand of them live in the
province of Oak Park, which is only
a third the distance from the main
Chicago telephone exchange that a

ALDERMAN TO BALK
PEOPLES MANDATE

Several aldermen are scheming to
beat the fifty ward plan adopted by
the people, so that they can hold on
to their jobs.
The ordinance redistricting the city

the council in the near future. 1t will
not be given sufficient votes to assure
its adoption without a referendum, at

KEEP ALL TRAFFIC
OUT OF THE LOOP DUR.
ING BUSINESS HOURS

Conditions in the Loop streets de-
mand immediate attention.
The congestion is now so great that
it is almost impossible to walk, let
alone ride about except at snairs
pace.
The city should take measures to
establish and maintain adequate park
ing space outside of the Loop on the
North, West and South sides.
Then all street traffic within the
Loop should be prohibited between
8 a. m. O'Clock and o'clock p. m.

This will throw the adoption of

spring, too late to prevent the election
of thirty-five aldermen for two years
under the present election laws.

CHEERFUL LOSER

Baltimore, Nd, Nov. 10.-(Special
to The Tribune) George E. Bren-
nan, Democratic boss" of Illinois, is
giving demonstrations in the gentle
are OF losing gracefully.
tThey just swatted us, that's all, -
he said here today. 'Of course we
knew that We didn't have a chance,
for the recent Republican landslide
was founded on a national dissatis-
faction as everybody knows. This
dissatisfaction was as evident before
the election as it is today In his
heart Of hearts no really intelligent
Democrat felt that his party had a
show
''It seems to me foolish to discuss
the matter now. If there's one thing
in the world ] admire more than a
good dyed in the wool Democrat it is
cheerful loser l therefore want to
see my party lose gracefully, to bow
to the will Of the majority as every
good American should. 1t is up to
every one now, Democrat and Repub-
lican alike, to make Mr.. Harding's ad-
ministration as successful as it is pos
sible for it to be-with Mr. Hard

ABOLISH THE JOB
The City Clerk Should Be Elect
ed by the City Council.

Probably the most useless office in
the city except in the matter OF
printers bills and salaries is that OF

The City Council should elect its
own City Clerk and the city charter
should be amended accordingly.

WORLD ALMANAC, 1920.
Contains More Information Than the
Needs of Society Require.

Among the latest books, but also
among the first books Of the new year
and in any event an up-to-the- minute
book, the World Almanac for 1920 has
been published. According to the i'm
partial judgment of those concerned in
its preparation and publication, it is
the greatest ever. But any latest World
Almanac is that. Ask the oldest read
er. He knows.
Do you want to know almost any
thing in sport, politics, trade, industry,
religion, government, historical mile
stones, navies, armies, powers, kings,
presidents and such? Here are the
facts and the figures, so far as possible
official.
Someone, speaking Of Thomas Bah.
ington Macaulay, remarked on an oc.
casion that he possessed more informa-
tion than the needs Of society required
The intent behind the World Almanac,
obviously, is to keep well apace with
those needs. After rather close ex-
animation of the 1920 issue, we are
convinced that it is short of detail only
on those affairs which will come to a
head just in time for the 1921 book.
The World Almanac is published by
the New York World. Price, so cents,
