MALONE M.w, MAXWBLfe ^^4^, Democrat--- HORNER J I, , i^rTq ftftQ IGOB CAMPBELL 69 Len Small was the successful Republican candidate, while Judge Henry Horner of Chicago will carry the Democratic banner in the contest for Governor of Illinois at the election next fall. A comparatively good vote was cast In the county, considering the fact that there was but one local contest, that for coroner, and that the farmers throughout the county had just started on their spring field work. The total vote in the county was ,000, but unlike former years when ogt of it has been cast in the Republican column, this year because of the bitter fight between Representative Michael Igoe and Judge Horner, a large Democratic vote was polled. The vote was divided, Republican 8,000; Democrats 2,000. Igoe Carries Cowrty Although Horner was th® statewide victor of the Democrats, Igoe «»rried McHenry county. Brnce Campbell was not a serious contender In this county. Small's principal opponent, Omer CuBter, gave a good account of himself in the McHenry county voting. He had the powerful support Editor M. F. Walsh at Harvard and the entire Emiaerson payroll machine in the county. Mr. Walsh was particularly effective in his home community, township giving Custer 479 votes as against only 145 for Small. This tremenduous maojrity for Custer in Chemung was directly a compliment of the citizens to their leading citizen, Mr Walsh, rather than an endorsement of the candidate. Oscar Carlstrom also received a comparatively small vote in Chemung. Small carried the Woodstock or Dorr township precincts with a total of 713, against 571 for Custer and 418 for Carlstorm. This gave Small a plurality of 242 in Dorr. Race For Senator the race for U. S. Senator Otis lenn carried the county with 2827, against 2396 for Newton Jenkins and 400 for Wright. Jjoeeg>h I. Prance, the uninvited candidate for President of the United "States, who is entirely unknown to the people of McHenry county and vras unopposed on the primary ballot, received 1671 votes. For the several other state offices, Fred EL Sterling is far in the lead tor Lieutenant Governor, William J. Stratton for Secretary of State, Harry G. Wright leads for Auditor, C.

The evening's activities opened with a dinner served at 6 o'clock, the tables centered with flowers, making a pleasant scene.

Veronica Schmidt; Margaret Schmidt CITY ELECTION ON TUESDAY, APRIL 19 Ob ant Tuesday, April I^ Um city election will be held, which will end the elections for the month. The election will be a quiet one as no opposition is being offered to the three candidates for alderman. The men seeking re-election are R. I. Overton in the first ward, F. H. Wattles, second ward, and Albert Barbian, third ward. The polls will be open all day and the polling places Will be, first ward, city hall; second ward, Erickson's store building; third ward, Colby building, on Riverside Drive. April has been a busy month of elections, but it's all over now until next November when the most important day of all will keep politics lively throughout the summer. Tuesday, the day of the big primary, has come and gone with clear skies and considerable interest registering a good sized vote despite the fact that many would not declare themselves. The feature of the election in at least the first and second precincts was the surprisingly large Democratic vote cast, with the Republicans and Democrats running neck end neck throughout the day until about 3 o'clock in the afternoon when the Republicans registered a slight gain, which they managed to keep. The third precinct went Democratic by 109 votes, which is about the average for j Richmond this district. 1 J Burton In the second precinct there was •* .McHenry 1 total of 205 cast for the Republican McHenry t ...^ candidates and 170 for the Democrats,; McHenry S in the first precinct at Ringwood, Nunda 1 ... there were 132 Republican ballots and Mun(j|a 126 Democratic, while in the third, \unda S precinct there were 159 Republican Aigonqttln 1 and 268 Democratic. The big Democratic vote was somewhat of a surprise to many here as compared to th© primary election of two years ago when only five Democrats declared themselves in the second precinct and in the third precinct there were only 28 Dcnccratic tickets cast. Another feature of the day noted by the judges of election was the split in families with perhaps one or more members calling for one color ballot while the remainder of the family used another color ballot.

RURAL CARRIER FINDS WOMAN DEAD OF BURNS Miss Lizzie Furney, 72 years old, who lived with two deaf, dumb and blind brothers, Albert Jand Robert, both past 80 years of age, on route 19 between Ridgefield and Woodstock was fatally burned early Tuesday morning. Her body was discovered by the mail carrier who saw a pair of trousers hung on the mail box in front of the Furney farm. His suspicion that something was wrong resulted in his discovery of the body of the woman. The two brothers were frantic as they realized that something had happened to their sister but were unable to hear her Screams for help or see that her clothing was in flames- It is believed that Miss Furney was starting the fire in the stove when the accident occurred. The Furney family is well known in McHenry county having lived here for many years. The two brothers have been afflicted since birth with the exception of sight which they lost some twenty years ago. They have been active around the farm but of late their jge has been a great handicap. in the first district.
