Prohibition Rivalry Dominates Illinois Governor Vote

Prohibition Dick, known as Yates, the Republican Gov candidate, tours Illinois with Prohibition rallies. Alschuler projected to beat Yates by over 25,000 in Cook County amid county machine tensions over Lloyd J. Smith’s nomination papers. Local conflicts include Fire Marshal and sanitation board struggles, Cranks against Mills, and a Chicago platform urging McAndrews for Congress.

Worrying the Mayor tax cut favors loan sharks in Chicago

A Chicago editorial charges a Republican plan to reduce 1900 property valuations by up to 80 percent, cutting city revenue and funding for schools and libraries. It claims loan shark interests escape taxation while small property owners pay, alleges favoritism toward Weber Brothers and other lenders, and warns of halted city improvements if the policy proceeds.
