By JOHN H. HANCOCK


The time grows shorter. The
Illinois Supreme Court will re-
convene on March II, and de-
cisions acted upon during Feb
ruary will be handed down.
This means that the Phoenix
Election case, heard before the
court January II, may have been
decided. We hope that it has
and favorable decision will be
given. It has been a long time
since last June, but daylight
finally begins to show. So long
have we stood in darkness; now
may the sun shine upon us.
Judging from recent maneu-
vers, somebody is Of the posi-
bile mind that this decision may
be in favor of the Phoenix
Community Party. If the court
upholds the County Court in
voiding the election Of the clerk
and Police Magistrate, then
there is no question as to what
course the action will take. 1t
stands to reason that should the
Supreme Court rule to uphold
County Court in its finding, no
other court before whom the
balance of the ticket may be
contested could afford to rule
otherwise that follow the line
laid down by the Supreme
Court.
OF course, there are some who
may belive that if a new cleo

voted upon. New Petitions have
to be filed and all procedures
have to be gone over just AZ
if no election was ever held.
The process of voiding is the

The heart of the column is
