Ernst IIummcl has unluestlonably
demonstrated that he was the bes, City
Treasurer that Chicago ever had. There
Is no doubt that his sporless career In
that capacity and his good record In
every office he ever held will prove the
foundation for still greater advance
mcnt In the future. Mr.. IIummel Is u
logical nominee for City Treasurer In
the near future. He Is certainly one OF
the most popular German-Amerlcnns In
Cook County, and his nomination for
an office Is Invariably equivalent to
election.
Ernst Hummel has been in the brew
cry business most OF the time since he
came to Chicago. When boy he was
apprentlced to Frederick Wacker, He
earned a reputation as a valuable en-
plOye, and was in demand by other con-
Germs which made beer. His political
life began as a Deputy Sheriff under
Timothy Bradley. He was then Col
lectOr Of the North Town. He served
four years as an Alderman. Mr.. Hum

immigrated to Chicago, and landed
here alone. He lives In South Chicago,

proven himself to he the most useful

the Republicans nominated Charley"
Gross for the City Treasurership, the
Democrats began to look around for
popular South Side German They
were not long in finding one in the per-
son of Mr., Ernst Hummel, who defeat
ed Mr.. Gross by an immense majority
in the famous, campaign OF 1897.
He was chlled the silent candi-
date OF the campaign. However
IIummel had the faculty of going into
crowd and mixing" among them so
successfully as to get acquainted pretty
generally before he got through. While
he was In the Council, Mr.. Hummel
had the reputation of being a good rep
resentative Of his ward. 1t Is said for
him that he has never been unfaithful
to a trust. He Is Mason and member
of several organizations. On the trips
of the County Democracy, Mr.. Hummel
marched In line with the boys, and was
man of popular interest. He is a
type of mankind which denotes solid
citizenship; plain In his ways, but pos
sessed Of heart of generous impulses;
a man who easily makes friends In
commercial as well as political life.
