CITY HALL OUT FOR GROGAN 40
HOYNE DECLARES FOR TOUHY
The City Hall machine came out
in the open for aBrney Grogan, can
didate for alderman of the 18th ward,
today. AS a retaliation, States Atty
HOyne openly espOused the candida
cy of John J. TOuhy.
Republican workers were instruct
ed to work for GrOgan. However, If
a vote for Grogan can't be landed
voters were to be urged to vote for
John R. Lewis, Republican candidate,
picked by GrOgan, so as to split the
anti-Grogan vote.
Hoyne will flood the 18th ward
with a squad of detectives to pre-
vent a repetition of the primary
frauds, from which several indict-
ments resulted. In addition, Hinton
G. Clabaugh, federal agent, will be
on the lookout for frauds.
The Municipal Voters league sent
out a special bulletin today urging
the election of Touhy and advising
Republicans not to waste their votes
by marking the ballot for Lewis. "a
vote for Lewis is a vote for GrOgan, 4"
says the league.
The league bulletin says: 'TOuhy,
Independent candidate, is a young
man capable of making a good alder
man. His record is ceiar. He is am
bilious to make d name which the
ward will be proud Of.
"GrOgan, Democratic candidate, is
hopeless. His record is disgraceful.
Since the days before his saloon was
closed on official report showing it
to be a resort for prostitutes and
pickpockets he has been a blot on the
ward. What woman or man could
vote for such a character to watch
over the welfare of the people?
"a vote for Lewis is VOtef or Gro
gan"
The Chicago Building Trades
Council has come out aggressively
for Touhy. Labor officials have vol

stole back toward the glade where Ike

on his quest for help when his anxiety
for Kes safety had overcome him and
he turned back. He had nearly reached
the spot when he caught sight Of the

Tolnette between them; and even as
his blood stopped In his veins at the
vision. the two warriors overlook the
advance guard and disappeared from
view among the trees.
The blood pounded wildly In Da-

rushed to the side Of the delIrious man.
"Ike!" he whispered hoarsely: "Tol.

attempting Toinette's rescue alone
pulled him down; and at last he forced
himself to turn his back on his last
hope and to bow his head to the duty
nearest at hand.
Through the long nights his lonely

past. By day he secured the woods
