MANY WOMEN ARE
CASTING BALLOTS
JUDICIAL ELECTION IN MOLINE
DRAWS HEAVY VOTE FROM
THE FAIR SEX.

The judicial election in Moline to-
DAY brought out more women voters
than have participated in any local
election since the Legislature extended
them the right OF franchise. The ex-
tremcly heavy vote has upset calcu-
iations of politicians and the race al
noon seemed 20 be anybOdys. At l.
O'Clock 100 women had cast their bal
lots at the Ninth precinct and the
votes of the men were figured At twice
that number.
With seven tickets in the field the
votes are split in all directions. ". 5.
McClurg seems to be getting the heavy
end of the dry vote. where there
is a split on the question. G. .. Dietz
is relying alone on the republican
party to pull him TO victory. while 9th
er candidates are working hard to
gather in the voters. Automobiles and
other conveyances are being used in
getting the people 10 the polls and
there are many workers on hand 10

is JOE MENDOZA
White SLAYER !?
FEDERAL AGENTS SAID TO BE
HERE INVESTIGATING CA
REER OF SHOPLIFTER.
Find That Hin. was Living With Mrs
Ada Aurand Whom He Brought
to City From iowa.

That Joe Mendoza. the Mexican who
has been indicted for shoplifting in
Moline. may be prosecuted for viola
ton OF the Mann white slave act is
possible. Agents OF the federal gov
eminent have been here for several
days investigating his case.
Mendoza. who was arrested just be-
fore Christmas and who is supposed
10 have been the leader of a gang of
shoplifters, came here from Iowa in
company with Mrs. Ada Aurand who
was arrested at the time that he was
unprecedented. The woman rented the
house at 1915 Fourth avenue, Moline,
and this is the place which the police
raided. finding a great quantity of
stolen goods. Her attempt TO aid Men
doza in escaping from the Weinroot
clothing store after he had stolen
pair OF trousers led to her arrest and
the uncoyering OF the operations of
the gang. Mendoza, the woman and
Jesus Lopes are under arrest. while
Phyllis Lazzaz Leonard. otherwise
known as the Green Devil" are also
under indictment but have not been
apprehended.
Wore Living Together.
Government agents, according TO
the police. have found that Mendoza
and the woman have been living to-
gether and since they came here to-
sether it looks as If the charge of
violating the Mann act might hold
against the man.
