CIRCUIT JUDGE.
Muffin (R) no opposition.


The "antis" captured seven of the
leleyen school inspectorships contested
rfdf at the polls. Monday, but the ei6c-'
ton leaves the control OF the board
OF education still In doubt To make
the control OF the board absolutely
certain, the "antis" needed to defeat
Miehm and Hely in the Eleventh and
Thirteenth respectively, but I'm this
they were unsuccessful.
The two machine adherents had too
strong a following for their opponents
to combat and in the Eleventh a fur
Their handicap was that Mr.. Dworkow-
ski. though thoroughly capable, was
not well known in the ward. Under
the circumstances, however, he made
a splendid showing. beating Miehm In
the first district and tieing him In the
seventh. DR.. Thomas Henderson lost
TO AL. Hely in the Thirteenth by about
two TO one. DIR. Carey. elected prac-
tically without opposition in the
Eighteenth ward. Is an independent
as far as the two factions on the
board are concerned.
Milton Oakman was an easy victor
in the contest for the county auditor
ship to succeed himself and his ma
jority over William j. Nagel will be
upwards of 5000. He carried the city
by 1921 to 1926. this being the
complete count with the exception OF
two or three precincts, and the re-
turns from the county will increase
his lead.
Justice Stein had walk-away for
the police justiceship, to which he is
reelected. The voting was about 3 TO
l as between him and ex-Judge Miner,
the Democratic candidate.
MartlndaIe the Issue.

ton OF school inspectors. the public
VIII now be interested In watching
how the inspectors line up on the ques.
ton Of voting the superintendent an
other term. The election of super
intendent takes place early in July.
As the situation now stands the two
factions, II would seem, are evenly
matched. eight on a side, with two In
spectors, Kuhn and Carey, in the
doubtful class. though both have been
inclined to vote with the machine
crowd on several occasions.
Enlisted under the anti-machine ban-
ner are Mumford, Burton, Goldberg
and Schultz. all of whom are at pres
ent members of the board and four
inspectors-elect. Move, Robertson.
Condor and Ellis. With the exception
OF Leonard. Shivers and Treppa, who
were defeated In the primaries, the
gang lines up as of yore, with the ad-
dition OF Wiedeman, inspector-elecs
from the Fifteenth ward. The other
seven are President George, inspect
ors Snitgen. Hutton. Komrofsky, Hen
dorson. Miehm and Hely.
From now on there will be some In
teresting times on the board. Any
man who is suspected OF being on the
fence wfl be spotted as victim BY
both sides and whoever exerts the
more influence will get him.
Secretary Lees job is also In the
balance. as is Supervisor Stewards
and IL Will be interesting to see
" whether the gang remains a unit on
all three OF these jobs.
There is no consolation for the gang

endorse him for reelection is thought

into the cellar of his home and shot
himself in the head. He had gone to
the basement while his wife was pre-
pairing breakfast and when he did not
return she began a search, finding
him dead with a revolver by his side.
Kohout was Democratic leader of the
city council and one of the staunchest
supporters of Mayor Ounce during
the latter's term of office. He was a
lawyer, about 80 years of age. He is
survived by a wife and two children.
