FOLK'S EXPENSES
RUNNING HIGH.
Politicians Speculate Upon
Amount of Money Circuit At
torney Must Spend for Gu
bernatorial Campaign.
Persons conversant with the affairs of
Circuit Attorney Folk are speculating
over the personal expenses of a guber
natorial candidate as shown in the prac
tical experience of Mr. Folk.
last September someone, presumably
an opponent, registered ,an objection to
the payment of salary to the Circuit At
torney under the law passed In 10L Oc
tober 1 Mr. Folk refused to draw his
monthly voucher, and requested the Cir
cuit Judge to let the matter rest until it
had been adjudicated. It Was the same
way the first of November, and has been
the name on the first of each succeeding
month.
In the meantime, Mr. Folk turned the
matter over to Attorney Frederick W.
Judson. Auditor DIerkes does not dispute
Mr. Folk's right to receive H.C0O a year,
but does object, to paying the $5,000 named
under the law of 190L Taking the basis
assumed by the Auditor, there Is now com
ing to Mr. FoIk 333 from the City Treas-'
ury. On the basis which had been used
prior to the time objection waa raised
there Is J2.750 due him.
A few w ceks ago Assistant Attorney W.
Scott Hancock protested to the City Au
ditor against any salary being paid to
"Gus" York, a clerk In the office, who.
aside from doing general office work, at
tended to the scrapbook. It was found
that though there was, a special fund
placed at the disposal of the Circuit At
torney, only a comparatively small
amount had been used for this purpose.
Mr. , Folk paid Mr. Tone's salary out of
his own pocket. Likewise, the stenogra
pher" of the office downstairs is paid by
Mr. Folk nersonally.
George W. Flckelssen Is also an extra
man on the pay roll of the Circuit Attor
ney. He has charge of one of the court-,
rooms, and does the regular work of an
assistant.. The salaries of the three extra
men employed In the office aggregate J2j0
a month. ,
Aside from these regular "extras." Mr.
Folk Is credited with paying the expenses
of the extradition of Charles Kratz. The
nses of both Sheriff Dleckman and
ef of Detectives William Desmond were
paid by the Circuit Attorney out of his
own pocket. Interpreters and a Mexican
attorney were employed by them at the
expense of Mr. Folk. All told, it amounted
to about FJ.S0O.
There are incidental expenses attaching
to the change of venue In tho boodle
cases which Mr. Folk has .paid. Where
local attorneys are employed, it comes
out of his Docket. The. Stale, uavs Mr.
.Folk's necessary expenses. Mr. Folk's
assistant; A. C. Maroney, and C. Orrlck
Bishop paid their own expenses to I"ul
ton. The boodle fund, which was raised by
Mayor Wells and other citizens immediate
ly after the exposures had been made,
was all spent last spring.. All extra, office
expenses not provided for in the statutes
have been paid out of the Circuit Attor
ney's pocket.
Aside from these expenditures. Mi. Folk
has had a drain In paying railroad fares.
There has not been a candidate recently
.who has been more active In making his
campaign. He has jumped from one cor
ner of the State to another between days.
His railroad bill has been one of the
largest ever made by a candidate.

REPUBLIC SPECIATU
Carlyle. 111.. April 17. The Republican
County-Convention to-day for a short
time was a turbulent mob. There Is no
parallel for it In the history of the county.
The only thing that prevented bloodshed,
was the decision of the regular, or antl
Yates, faction to proceed in the usual
way by .appointing a Committee on Cre
dentials and taking a recess until after-,
noon. The Yates faction, In the midst of
a terrible uproar, completed Its business
and adjourned within ten minutes.
The Yates side carried four precincts In
the county, and would have had four
members of the Committee on Credentials.
The antl-Yates faction carried twelve pre
cincts, and would have bad twelve mem
bers of that committee. These were from
uncontested townships. Yates had nineteen
uncontested delegates present, while the
other crowd had forty-live. There were
twenty-seven contested delegates. Of these
latter, Brookshlre. Clement, New Mem
phis and Meridian unquestionably were
carried by the antl-Yates side. Irishtown
was captured by Yates.
The antl-Yates faction therefore had an
overwhelming majority of the convention,
and also of the Committee on Credentials.
The County Committee met this morning
to suggest a temporary chairman and sec
retary, and the Yates crowd refused to at
tend. The committee selected Kepresenta
the W. F. Bundy for chairman and Georgo
Hartley for secretary, and Instructed
Chairman Walter Iiouden of the County
Committee, when he called the convention
to order, and reported the temporary offi
cers, to ask If there were any other nom
inations. It was agreed that there should
be a roll c&ll on every proposition.
Then a committee was sent to the Tate
leaders, John Rut and Doctor Songer. and
nffemd them two of the live delegates to
th State Convention if they would enter
the agency and be good. Tho compromise
was refused. .... .,
Chairman Louden called the convention
to order and requested Secretary Herman
Beckemeyer to read the calL Beckemejer
is Trustee of the Carbondale Normal
School and a Yates man. He read the
call, and without stopping for breath after
It waa completed ho continued as rapidly
as he could utter the words:
yOTING FOR CHAIRMAN.
"t now nominate for chairman of this
convention J. G. Pratherf Centralis. All
say aye and he's elected."
Mr. Prather. with a beer mallet as big
as a log "of wood, sprang to the stand
with a bound, and, flourishing it aloft In
a menacing way at Walter Louden, began
to recite some parliamentary1 motions and
carry them with a vicious swing of his
mallet. ' .
"Who'll you have for secretary? Ben
Wade and elected biff!" ...
" 'Mlttee credentials they re elected
bang, bang!"
Meanwhile Louden had put the question
of choosing Bundy as chairman, and his
followers jelled approval, and Bundy
jumped to tho stand, within two feet of
.PraLher.. andibegan pounding the desk,
with'a young sapling. Louden remained
near 'Bundy. The din 'was terrific The
secretaries made a rush for their pVcc
and within the narrow area used by the
clerk of the court there was a battle.
One Yates patriot grabbed an inkstand,
spilling its contents, but beforo lie could
hurl It his arm was knocked down. Carl
Rlemann snatched .the pad of paper from
the secretary's deck and handed it to
George Hartley. Wade made a grab for
the precious paper. Someone punched
Wade in the ribs with his elbow, and
Hartley retained possession. Doctor Ed
wards grabbed a chair, but was prevented
from raising it by the excited throng
around him. Georgo Blackwcll, with his
patriarchlcal beard tossing about his
face like the mano of a lion, shouted
"Boodlcrs! Boodlers!" and shook his fist
at the antl-Yates crowd In Impotent fury.
One angry Yates' partisan reached for
bis hip pocket as though to draw a weapon
but was cooled down before he could do
any damage. Finally, above the noise the
voice of Bundy was heard requesting all
contesting delegations to present their
papers to the Committee on Credentials
and adjourning his convention until 2
o'clock. The Yates faction gave three
cheers and completed their work.
TATE3 MEN EXCITED.
The Tates aide clearly w ere the aggres
sors, and when tho enemy left tho court
room tho Yates leaders were so excited
that they transacted their businets awk
wardly and without parliamentary form.
Chairman Prather asked if the Commit
teo on Credentials was ready to report,
and Mr. Van Hoorebeks answered that
'the Committee on Credentials makes the
following report," and then ho read off
tho list of delegates to the different con
ventions. It -Is claimed that the Com
mittee on Credentials necr made a rc-
l port.
'ino lates delegates to the state con
vention are: P. H. Lelbrock. IT. H.

weather, set overworked or suffer from
a cold, the use of Peruna for a-day or

pletely cured and restored to perfect
health." Herbert Lundberg.
