Evening Republican, Volume 18, Number 215, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 11 September 1914 — Sullivan, Sherman and Cannon Are Nominated in Illinois. [ARTICLE]

Sullivan, Sherman and Cannon Are Nominated in Illinois.

The Illinois primaries have resulted in the naming of Roger C. Sullivan as the democratic nominee for U. S. senator. Sullivan is regarded as the everything that is meant by crooked polities and has been opposed to William Jennings Bryari. He won by 65,000 plurality, which indicates that he is either a marvelously maligned man or the people are greatly fooled. The republicans of the Danville district again nominated Joseph G. CAnnon, former speaker of the house of representatives, for congress. His plurality was about 10,000, which shows the “Uncle” Joe’s neighbors have not believed all the wicked things some people have said about him. Senator Sherman was renominated by republicans and William B. McKinley was named without opposition in the nineteenth district.
