Aua. . Today tho SUM of Illinois is having her first Ust of the primary- election laws enacted by tha recent session of tha state legislature. .A general primary is In progress for state, congressional . and senatorial -nominations. Publlo Interest centers chiefly In" the eontest between former Oovernor Rich ard Yates and Senator Shelby M. Cullom for the latter seat In the United States senate. The primary law provides -that the vote for senator shall be only ad- t - vlsory for. the sole purpoee of ascer taining the sentiment of the electors of the state. But It Is probable. In the " opinion of ; - most politicians, that the senatorial eontest will be finally settled , by today's primaries. Of course, 4t the primary-vote- should be; pretty evenly divided, so. that neither candidate should have a -decisive majority In the etate -convention, the contest might be pro longed and carried into the. party cau- cus In the legislature neat winter.. Cullom Tavorlte. If one may Judge by what appeara en -the surface, the , reelection of Benator Cullom seems assured.' The Yates men .' concede that the senior senator has- the best organisation. But they lay great ; stress on what the rank and -file of the people will da The -vast majority ot the voters, they declare, will express their real sentiments at the ballot-box today. But the. Cullom forces evidently . are not worrying. They are of the opln- Ion that the admiration for the veteran aenator Is deep-rooted throughout the state, while, furthermore, tha factional -warfare among the Republicans of Cook eounty Is bound to Work more harm to ' the Yatea Interests than . to those of ' .Cullom. It Is perhaps worthy of note that 1 Benator Cnllom's campaign for reelec , tlon has been almost without parallel - In tha country. - He has not made a r speech, nor done anything that might be construed In the way of .an active " canvass.

In both Instances the incumbent senator left hts seat In Washington and made sn arduous speech-making canvass, and It Is signifi cant that both were defeated. . Senator Barry of Arkahsss had to yield to Oov ernor Jeff Davis, and In Tenneasee Senator Carmack . lost out to former Oovernor "Bob" Taylor. In the light of these two events, poli ticians here believe that Senator Cul lom was wise perhaps. In adopting his plan "of - non-ectLon. The senator . aU tended strictly to business. He made no reply to the bitter attacks of his oppo nent. - ' But while Senator Cullom sat' serenely back and declined to answer hie youth ful opponent, his- friends and sup porters In . Illinois were not Inactive. The senator doubtless felt confident that his fences were In good shape and the organisation supporting him as stanch as could be wished for. And the leaders of this organisation aay the fruits ot their labors will be. apparent when the ballots cast today are counted. families whose, houses stood, . but who were thrown out of work.
