About as small piece of polit-

that undertaken today by j. n.
Hdntoon with a view to influence
ing mem bers of the Transfers union
against Mr.. Kuschmann. Huntoon's
aim is to create prejudice on the
score that Mr.. kuschmarn voted for
the wide-tire ordinance in the coun-
Gil. While the wide-tire ordinance
is past issue, its object was of di-
rect benefit to transfers, and its en-
aesment and enforcement was done
to protect local thoroughfares against
the encroachment of Davenport coal
haulers who were cutting up our
paved thoroughfares in hauling
heavy loads between Milan and Rock
Island. A number of these Daven-
porters were arrested and fined in
retaliation for penalties imposed
upon Rock Island teamsters in
Davenport. and then in order to pre-.
serve the improved streets to the
teamsters, who are the main benefi-
Charles, and to protect the pavemen,
which property holders had paid for

ready adopted the uniform wide tire,

hazardous, to accomplish their ends.
They are vainly expecting help from
