But Comparison of Harrison's Record
with Altgeld's in This Respect
COntradicts Him.
Altgeld Never Gave to Germau.American
an Office with Patronage
to It.
And the Poor Little Jobs that He Did
Give Them No One
Sought.

do any moralizlng over Altgeld's at
tempt to arouse race prejudice, let us
look at the Mayors cabinet and see
what their natlonalitles are:
ComptrOllcr-R. A. Waller deceased,
American.
Comptroller Edward 4. Hnlscy,
American.
Corporation Counsel-C. $. Thornton,
American.
Commissioner Of IIealth-A. Il.
Reynolds. American.
Chief of Police--Joscph Ripley, Ger.
man.
City Collector--F. X. Brandcckcr,
German.
Superintendent House of Correction
Adolf Sturm. German.
City Englnecr--JOhn Ericsson, Scan.
dlnavian.
President Civil Service Board--R.

McAndrews. American.
Gas nspector-Alaurice O'Connor,
Irish.
Superintendent OF Water Oftice-H.
o. Nourse, American.
drews, American.
City Edward Il. Ellicott,
American.
From this Il will he seen that while
Altgeld talks against the Irish and
sfeers ut the Irish, he evidently means
to find the most fault with the Ameri.
cans, who have most OF the best places
In the Mayors cabinet.
The Germans have really the best of.
fees from either Il pccuniary or pOliti-
cal standpoint.
Having taken a glance ut the leading
appOintees Of the Mayor, let us look mt
the app0intees Of Altgeld when he was
Governor, ana see what he did for the
Germans. Let us examine the list Of
