To the Members of the City Club:
The Illinois Constitutional Conven-
ton has practically finished its la
bors and the proposed new consti-
tuition will be submitted to the peo-
pie of Illinois for adoption or rejec-
ton at a special election to be held
December 18th, next. The document
will be submitted as a single propo-
sition.
The Directors of the City Club are
of the opinion that the issue is one
of great Importance. They believe
that members of this Club should
inform themselves about the propo-
sition at an early date, to the end
that they may be sources of infor
nation on the matter to others de-
string light. A copy of the proposed
new constitution is enclosed here
with, together with condensed state
ment indicating in popular form the
principal features of the document.
1t is hoped that more thorough de-
tailed analysis may be put forth lat
er, making definite comparisons of
the new with the old.
The Directors of the City Club. be-
fore taking further action, invite ex-
pressions of opinion from members
of the club. Arrangements will be
made for discussions of the subject at
City Club MONDAY meetings in c~--
'ember.
Yours very truly,
BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE
CITY CLUB.
By F. B. Johnstone, President.

be given the right to do, the whole
staff of employees under the election
commission of Chicago would be in

The organization of the legislature
is now uppermost in the minds of poll
tical leaders. The Republicans control
both houses and there will be a big
fight on for the speakership of the
House of Representatives Gothard A.
Dahlberg, an administration and city
hall man, was chosen for the place
last assembly after a Republican eau
Gus that still leaves unpleasant mem
ories in the minds of many aspirants
for the speakership. The dry element
in the House had much to do with
Dahlberg's selection, but the Anti-Sa-
loon League in Illinois has not the
pull it had then.

The SCHOOL GRAFT

An array of counsel for indicted
persons in the schools inquiry pre-
sented statement to Chief Justice
Michael L. Mckinley and Judge Philip
l.. Sullivan in the latter's chambers
as preliminary to motion to quash
a number of indictments. Counsel is
relying on the contention the indict-
ments are illegal because they say
the special grand jury was Illegally
continued.
Judge Mckinley knocked that argu-
ment in the head by saying that one
of Attorney General Brundage's first
acts when the grand jury reconvenes
Nov. 27 will be to obtain blanket
conspiracy Indictment before the regu-
lar grand jury, thus removing the con-
tention that any of the indictments
are improper. Hearing on the motion

AID. CLARK Wins FIRE
Commission VICTORY

Alderman John S. Clark, one of the
most wide-awake and progressive
aldermen in the City Council, had the
pleasure of seeing his ordinance Great
ing a Civilian Fire Commissioner go
through on Wednesday by vote OF
49 to 8. 1t will greatly improve the
efficiency of the Fire Department.
The ordinance creating the commits
sionership was debated for two hours.
Aldermen Johntry, Guernsey, Albert,
Wallace, Brieske, Link, Frankhauser,
and A. o. Anderson based their objec-
tions to it for the most part on the
ground that it was being damned
through" the council without time for
them to read it.
Alderman Clark, who led the fight
for it's passage, replied that the meas
ure has been the center of a storm
for six weeks and that copies of it
were placed in aldermanic mail boxes
on Monday.

Rotten Administration of the Police De-
partment and Loop Auto Parking Favor
itism Blamed on the
Mayor
Police Department DemOralized and Getting Worse
and Force Demands Protection Because
Prevented From Doing It's Duty

The present administration of the
police department hurts the Thomp-
son administration more than the
school board scandal hurts it-and
that is saying great deal.
The playing of favOrites in the ad-
ministration of the law is something
the people will not stand for and the
present police administration plays
favorites.
One would think that the police au-
thorities would abstain from playing
favorites among the 100000 automo-
bile owners in Chicago-but they
don't.
The laws regulating the use of autos
in Chicago and especially in the loop
are violated regularly by police de-
partment pets and are vigorously en-
forced against people without a pull
Re
Business and professional men in
the loop discuss this rotten police
administration as they do the wealth
er-they take it as matter of course
~eM
In every block in the loop pets have
their own way and non-pets are har-
rassed and prosecuted times
needlessly.
In the block ON Washington street
which commences opposite the city
hall at La Sale street and runs
through to Wells street one man has
defied the law by parking his Ma
tional Phaeton car for hours every
day for months without police inter
ference.
%eA.
1t is said that he has something on
the authorities. What is it?
Ae&
Mounted and unmounted police have
been interviewed on this subject and
they one and all Indignantly declare
that the blame is above them and that
they are not responsible for this
shameful exhibition of favoritism.
One mounted officer stated recent
ly that he had handed eight slips"
to this offender at different times to
appear in court for violation of the
parking ordinance. The offender mere
Iy laughed, tore up the slips and kept
up his defiance of the law.
%e$A
People in this country are supposed
to be free and equal. American law
is said to apply to all alike. In Chi
cago it does not.
&eSA
Many people who were friends of
Mayor Thompson blame him for these
conditions. Many others blame the
police patrolmen. They cannot under
stand why this favoritism should be
shown to few and denied to the
many. They draw conclusions that are
unjust to the policeman who tries to
do his duty and is prevented from do
ing it by some one above him.
%e
Conditions in the loop are bad and
is "demoralized in spots and needs
a radical cleaning out from top to
bottom.

Of course this new method of chos-

candidates that there could be no
majority for one man in most of the
wards. So the law provides for two
elections for aldermen.
