FRANK WEST FOR
ALDERMAN OF 44Tn

Frank A. West, one of the most
popular Republicans in the 44th
Ward and a member of the Board
of Examining Engineers, is a candi-
date for the Republican nomination
for Alderman of that new ward. Mr.
West is one of the best known men
on the North Side. He is a live wire
and is always working for the best
interests of the city.
His large acquaintance and inde-
fatigable energy as well as the fact
that he is not affiliated with the big
head makes him an ideal candidate.
At Springfield on Jan s, Jackson
day, Illinois Democrats will stage a
statewide demonstration at the st.
Nicholas hotel at which United States
Senator Elect Samuel NJ. Ralston of
Indiana is to be the chief speaker.
There is little concealment of the fact
that the function is to be the real
opening of a campaign to give to Mr..
Ralston, who defeated Albert j.
Beveridge for the senatorship, the
Democratic nomination for the presi-
dency.

he party to the agreement and its
connection would be merely that of

The proposed agreement would be
particularly acceptable to Germany,
inasmuch aS it is calculated not only
to give France guarantees against any
possible aggression BY Germany and
thus would deprive her of a main ar
gument against large standing army,
but would also guarantee Germany
against further occupation of German
territory.
