POLL RECORD VOTES
Chicago Teachers Federation can
didates won yesterdays pension
board election by majorities surpas-
sing all past elections.
Besides control, Of the $1,000, 900
pension fund, there was involved the
question of whether Pres. Jakey
Loeb and his school board majority
have been able to throw a scare into
the teachers of Chicago by the ter
rOrism and tTickery of the past year.
When count of ballots was finished
at gray dawn in the Tribune bldg.
this morning, it was clear that the
public school teachers Of Chicago are
Overwhelmingly in favor of the
Teachers Federation as their weap-
on, their tool, for the combat of ].
Loeb tactics.
Mary Able, federation candidate,
got the highest number of votes cast.
Her vote of 1888 was 202 more than
the highest federation candidate got
one year ago. Her opponent, VIM. R.
Hornbaker, got 2,O02 votes, the high
est poIled by any Of the opposition
slate.
Other Teachers Federation can
didates ran only a few hundred votes
behind Mary Able. And all fedora
ton candidates this year were de-
prived Of the votes of the 38 teachers
dropped June q.

Teachers marked their ballots in
school polling places and the ballot
boxes were then taken to board of
education offices in Tribune bldg.
Charles H. Mitchell, former attor-
ney for election commissioners
watched counting methods last night.
He said it looked like the cIeanest
and most efficient election he had
ever seen. Only five ballots were dis
carded. Not one ballot box was re-
fused as improperly sealed.

WOMEN FIGHT TO GET MILK
FOR VANISHING BABIES

FOR FAMISHING BABIES
New York, Oct. S. - Milk famine
got to riot stage today. Police blot
tiers showed trouble on East Side,
where famished women and children
took desperate steps. In one instance
a driver was dragged from his cart
while mob of 200 drained it of every
drop of milk. Milk lines have been
established in some sections. There
meager portions are doled out. Up
state the night riders are busy and
extra deputies have been called to
guard creameries against attack.
While distributors had new sourc-
es of supply, city officials estimated
that pinch was greater than at any
time since dairymen refused to sell
to Big Three at existing rates.
One hope of break in the dead
lock lay in the fact that there were
some signs of weakening upon the
part of the Borden Co.
It has already offered a 35-cent
per 100 pounds increase for October.
while others in Big Three have
trailed at 81 cents. Farmers are
out for Ascent raise and
six months contracts.

Chapman, farmer of Crawford county
living three and half miles south

Experiments carried on by the soils

omy farm show that incubation of le-
gumes is a most important farm prac-

available in the immediate vicinity it
should be used in preference to COM
