A Chicago political roundup reports Roger C. Sullivan winning Dem nomination odds for U.S. Senate, praising Wilson administration, and opposing Foreman’s charter efforts while noting local races for mayor and treasurer. It covers Chicago ward politics, water meter graft rumors, and looming 1915 mayoral bids amid party feuds and press clashes.
A letter to the city council denounces installing water meters in every flat as graft that would raise rents and burden the poor. It argues Chicago already has ample water and misuses the water fund to fund other departments while neglecting pumping stations and reliable supply.
