yesterday, to protest ngalnst tlio

coro, ns secretary of the treasury. This
was one of the posts thfh was reuarded
as filled. Mayor Thompson dislikes,
uiiuKuiH ironi ms own town, lie saiil In
Chicago that ho would rather see bis
old foe, Oovcrnor Lowden, In the cab
inet than Mr. Dawes, nnd Mayor
Thompson is the Republican party of
Illinois.
On tlio same train Charles Itnrrrtt,
president of the Farmers' Union, came
litre to urRp the appointment of Henry
C. allnco. of Des Moines, ns Kccrr
tory of OKrlculturc. Jlr. Wallace lias
certain pnekliiR Interests oppoaliiR blm.
Mr. llarrett does not love packers,
therefore be Is for Mr. 'Wallace. This
process rops on dally. The visit of
Mayor Thompson will bring u counter
visit of some one else who is In favor
of Mr. Dawes. The visit of Mr. Itar
rctt will bring here i-omc more pack
ers. The 1 will only romp when Mr.
"HnrdlliR goes to n place of different bur
Rcstlons and different obligations tbon
Marlon, where be will take on a little
more readily the habits of nn executive
and rIvp up those of n Rood iielRlibor

ably knows this as well as any one
else. That Is why be wants to Ret
