The four Republican candidates for
the nomination for mayor of Chicago,
namely, Hon. Arthur Q. Lueder, Hon.
Edward r. Litsinger, Hon. Arthur M.
Millard and Judge Bernard P. Barasa,
went to the mat with each other at
the primaries on Tuesday and none Of
the other contenders for that high
honor were in it with the present pop
ular postmaster of Chicago, Hon. Ar
thur C. Lueder,s he receiving 128,704
votes. as against 74,560 for Mr.. Lit
singer and Mr.. Millard received 51,054
as against 46,6o0 for Judge Barasa,
giving Mr.. Lueder 54,l44 over Mr..
Litsinger and the other would-be
mayors Of this city. 1t was well in
deed that the Republicans Of this city
gave Mr.. Litsinger a good, sound
trouncing, for he is very cold, selfish,
hoggish and struts or walks as though
he owned the whole earth and all of
creation; that this grand old world
was thrown together for his special
benefit.
Only few months ago he was re-
elected one Of the members of the
Board Of Review Of Cook county with
a very small majority at his back and
at once his head swelled up SO large
that he labored under the false i'm
preston that the people were crying
for him for mayor of Chicago and
then for president of the United States
in 1924. 1t seems hard for him to
realize that the fates have decreed
that that time will never come on
this earth.
The other candidates whom the
people will be called upon to vote for
at the election Tuesday, April ;, are
as follows:
Republican-Mayor, Arthur c. Lue-
der; clerk, William H. Cruden; treas
urer. John v. Healy.

and the old building, tw6-story
frame structure, soon followed. AL
though a stiff fight was put up to
save both buildings they were COM
pletely destroyed by IL o'clock.
The { Id structure was built number
of years ago. Work was being rushed
on the new structure to complete
it for opening of the fall term. The
new building was being erected I'M
der state plans and would have cost
$4,000 to $4,000. No insurance was
carried on 1t. There was $1,000 in
surance on the old building.
Desks and other equipment for the
new building were stored in near

those fighting the flames, but moth

This makes three school buildings
to have been destroyed by fire in
Tallapoosa county since the first of
April, the handsome Avondale Mills
burned at that time, causing loss
on building and equipment Of more
than 100000. The opinion is ex-
