THE VOTE FOR JUDGES

Seven Republican municipal judges
have been reelected and three Demo
Gratis placed on the bench for the
regular six-year term.
Judge Eller, who had been appoint
ed by Gov Small to fill vacancy
last spring, was the only sitting judge
apparently defeated for reelection.
He is running Philip J. Finnegan,
Democrat, q close race for tenth
place
Both Republican candidates for the
new six-year term were elected, while
the Democrats were victors for the
new four-year and new two-year term
positions. Of sixteen judges elected
the Democrats won seven and the Re-
publicans nine.
The vote for the first eleven can
didates for the full term, with seventy
six of the 2,O51 Chicago precincts
missing, was as follows. JohD r
Newcomer (rep.), 32S,9S4; John F.
Haas (rep.), 321,57S; Dennis w. Sui
livan (dem), 318,057; Francis Bor-
relli (dem), 313,3O9; John Richard
son (rep), 312,628; Wells M. Cook
(rep.), 310,476; Hosea M. Wells (rep.),
3OS, ,272 Howard Hayes (rep), 302,-
SOL; Theodore F. Ehler (rep.), 29S,474;
Philip J. Finnegan (dem), 292,656;
Emanuel Eller. (rep.), 291,954.
The nearly complete returns put
Finnegan 702 votes ahead of Judge
Eller in close race for the tenth win
ming place.
In the contest for the new sx-year
term the two Republicans, A. M. Eber-
hardt and William E. Helander won
by safe margins over Al F. German
and S. E. Pincus.
The Democrats were victors for the
four short-term judgeships. Frank T..
| Sullivan and James J. O'Toole were
! elected to the new four-year term by
majorities of 10000 to 10000. Joseph

Democratic entries, won the two new
two-year judgeships by substantial

1t is a custom with some politicians
the country over to find fault with
Tammany Hall and "Tammany meth
DDS" in politics.
1t would be well for all American
cities and for Chicago in particular
if there was a Tammany Society in
each of them.
For fifty years New York has been
the best governed city in America
and during that whole time has been
singularly free from official scandal
Her school funds have not been loot
ed, her water pipe extension money
has been used to perfect her water
system-the best in the world.
<S
Her courts have been presided over
by able judges picked out by Tam
many Hall because of their high char
acter and legal ability.
And her mayors have been high
class men picked out by Tammany
Hall because of their ability and not
because of an aristocratic lineage.
~c
Only on three occasions in thirty
years has Chicago selected mayors
for their personal merit and not be-
cause of the accident of birth.

Republicans who are against Thomp-

which means a weakening to the

of County Judge Frank S. Righeimer

cannot recover from, and that it will
cause stampede of Thompson lead

only add to the traffic already on our

street completely, inasmuch as vehi
cles coming from three other direc-
tions must necessarily stop.
Motorists should so arrange theil
! loop itineraries so as to cut out as
many of these turns as possible"
The man who slides his car il
next to another already by the curl
congests traffic and narrows the
street to the car tracks, Lieut.. Mar
tin continued To push the ca
out of the way or to give the owne
a court summons only consumes
valuable time, he observed.
"One-way streets worked we'll dur
ing the street car strike, as stree
cars constitute one-half of ou
traffic." the chief went on. "Hoy
well the system would operate toda
is a different matter. In loop dis
tricts, where frequent turns an
stops must be made, the one-wa

HEROD, CLAIMED BY DEATH

Mr.. w. A. Waddell, a young man
OF nineteen years, died Sunday eve
ming at the country place where he
had been living, in the Herod district
after a two weeks illness of malarial
fever. About a week ago he had so
far recovered that he was sitting up,
when other symptoms developed, run
ming into blood poisoning at the last.
A few weeks ago Mr.. Waddell married
Miss Bessie Frazer and they lived near
Mr.. Jack Frazer's farm. He came here
from north Georgia, and it is probable
that his remains will be carried there
for interment.
