HON. DENNIS ]. EGAN DEMO-
CRATIC CANDIDATE FOR RE-
ELECTION FOR BAILIFF OF
THE MUNICIPAL COURT OF
CHICAGO

Hon. Dennis J. Egan, Democratic
candidate for reelection AZ BailifF Of
the Municipal Court Of Chicago. has
amply proven himself to be by far the
best and most efficient bailiff who has
% far occupied that important posi-
ton.
Mr.. Egan was born and raised in
Chicago and comes from all old, high
F. ~ respected family. He has part Of
his time filled several other important
positions Of honor and trust. He has
served AZ member Of the Legislature
OF Illinois, alderman Of the old TWEEN
tieth ward, his native ward, in the
city council for three terms, head Of
the Torrens Land System and he was
the honored chief clerk of the Board
Of Election Commissioners Of Chicago
Honorably serving as such under the
late County Judge Thomas F. Scully.
In all of those positions he has
made an enviable record. He is par
ticularly proud Of his great work as
Bailiff of the Municipal Court of Chi
cago, and for the second time he
comes before the public or the people
of Chicago on his splendid untarnished
record which is one of faithful dis
charge Of a public trust, and one hun
dred per cent efficiency in public af-
fairs.
For example, Mr. Egan will never
permit his assistant baliffs to serve
writs on the poor and unfortunate peo-
pie who are unable to pay their rents
or dispossess them Of their homes or
premises in bad weather, if possible
he will not set their househould goods
out on the sidewalk on Saturday
nights when help for the misfortunate
is very scarce and scant.
1t has been said in the beginning
that the deputy baliffs are grossly
underpaid- Mr.. Egan when he took
hold five years ago. tried to remedy
this by act of Legislature and con-
currence Of the Governor Of the State
Of Illinois, both Of which he sue
ceeded in obtaining. The Legislative
act raised the wages of the hard
worked employees from a minimum
OF $500 month and a maximum Of
$l25.00 a month to a minimum of
$4,000 month and a maximum of
$4,000.

mestic Relations. Through their op-
Grafton they have to do with the lives
the safety, the morals, public and
private of the entire community be-
sides the welfare through proper
guidance Of the rising generation.
Some idea Of the extent Of the bust
ness done in just one of these courts
the Speeders-may be obtained from
the fact that during the past year up
to but not including December, 70,6l3
automobile cases, including speeding.
driving while intoxicated, ETC., came
before the court The number Of cases
run into the tens of thousands in the
course Of a year.
With all this work the Bailiff's Of
fee is actively and continuously iden-
tilted and associated.
The total number Of criminal cases
called in the Municipal Court during
1928, but not including December, was
2lo,705. while during the last seven
months Of the same year up to De-
cember lst, an average of 21,500 Grim
inal cases per month was maintained.
During the past year there were l43
criminal cases given a preliminary
hearing, assaults with deadly weapons
2,34O, carrying concealed weapons o72.
keeping Of disorderly houses -10,5l5,
drunkenness and prostitution 7040.
Since the establishment Of the Mu-
nicipal Court it has handled close on
100000 cases Of all kinds, and over
100000 of these were criminal cases.
During last year $4,000 cash bonds
amounting to $2,5OOO0 were received
and disposed Of in the criminal branch
of the court
AS stated before, the records show
that an average total Of S5,0OO,000 Of
property interests are handled in the
course Of a year, by this court.
The Bailiffs Office shows in various
ways the difficulty Of administering
and enforcing the law
In conclusion, the people residing in
all parts Of this city irrespective Of
their political opinions feel mighty
proud Of the past honest and honor
able political career Of Hon. Dennis J.
Egan and on Tuesday. November 4,
they, the people, including his thou
sands Of colored friends, will assist to
re-elect him Baliff Of the Municipal
Court of Chicago.
