Albert Huber the Right
Man For County Judge

ical as we'll as efficient administration
of the affairs of the county court a
man should be chosen for county judge
whose qualification is not matter of
supposition but has been tested in
actual experience before the bar. That
Albert Huber, the democratic nomi-
nee, is so qualified is admitted by all
who are in a position to observe what
is done in the courts of Rock Island
county.
The county court also has the ap-
pointment of the board of review, jur-
isdic:ion of contests on the special
assessment rolls, and to its charge are
committed the dependent and delin-
quent children. In the latter branch,
Mr.. Huber's service on the state
board of charities has been the means
of his acquiring some special insight
into the needs of those who are made
wards of this court.

LITTLE CHANGED
Figures for Fall Election in City
About Same as It Was
Last Spring.

Registration for the fall election,
completed in the various precincts of
the city yesterday, show totals APP
proximating those for the spring cleo
ton. The proportion of women's names
runs about the same, there having
been few additions either of women or
men. Only five of the poll books had
been turned in this afternoon by the
judge of election to w. A. Frewert,
town clerk.
The great majority of the names
were merely copied over by the judges
from one set of poll books to the other,
all, of course, being verified, the in
dividuals did not call in person to see
to the matter. OF course, it is not an
ticipated that the women's vote will
be as heavy as at the spring election,
when they were permitted to vote on
nearly all the offices though now, as
in the spring, the number registered is
higher in some precincts than that of
the men.
