JUDGE IBIS STAND (Continued front front peg*) Immediately upon the first warrants being issued, I took the matter up with the state's attorney's office and urged him to prosecute the cases and clean the whole matter up. As to the attitude of the state's attorney's office, this is not the place for controversy over it. It was before the grand jury and is rather a matter for them to discuss, and will be a subject of court hearing in the near future. It is true that it is possible that some of the evidence obtained on the first raid, January 1, 1924, may become illegal evidence, by reason of a ruling: made late in February last by the supreme court holding that complaints under the prohibition act could not be made "en informations and belief," and further holding that evidence secured, based upon such complaints, could not be used and must be returned to the owner. This portends a change in the rulings the supreme court has made from its earliest reports and is still pending before the court on a petition for a rehearing and is still unsettled. How-* ever, in most of these cases further evidence has been secured and the prosecution will not be long delayed. In the raids made, many skA machines were taken, and testimony is presented, trading to show that wherever the saloons go, slot machines go, and are owned, operated and the money divided by two overlords, whose conduct will soon, without a doubt, be the subject of a grand jury investigation. A short time ago I received a petition for the appointment of a Special State's Attorney to prosecute these matters. I have the promise of the aid of one of the ablest lawyers in the state, outside of McHenry county, to assist me on the hearing of this petition. His time is still taken for ten days or two weeks. I have not sought in any yray to make this matter of law enforcement a matter of politics. It is not a matter of pojitics or religion. But inasmuch as two county officers are flooding the county with letters of personal appeals in connection with this subject and criticising me, I make this statement of the matter. One candidate 'for state's attorney stands for enforcement of the law,-- the other does not. The nomination of one of them means that the law and the courts may pursue their orderly way,--the nomination of the other means there will be no prosecutions of the law officers paid high salaries--for what? Since January jl, 1921, the state's attorney's of- ! fice has earned for the county, in • fees, fines and forfeitures the sum of $4,192.40 at an expense in salaries alone of at least $20,000 to the county. The office of state's attorney in McHenry county, at an expense of salary $3,900.00 per annum, with an assistant at $1,320.00 per annum, earned in fees, fines and forfeitures in 1921, $1,473.00, in 1922 $256.00 and in 1923, $2205. During Mr. Lumley's first term as state's attorney the office paid into the county $14,399.50 and under Mr. Joslyn's second term, that being the first term under the salary act, he turned in $20,691.85. In all the counties surrounding McHenry, even the smaller ones, the amount turned in is more nearly approaching and exceeding the figures from 1912 to 1920. We may or may not agree with the policy of the prohibition law, or with parts of it.

The stranger, a gem smuggler, takes advantage of the situation by carrying the child on board the ship. The vessel pulls out, leaving the nurse. The crook hides diamonds in the child's rag doll and at New York he is stopped by police. During the controversy the child is taken by the crook'apala. The crooks become fond of the baby girl, but her presence is resented by Big Mike. During the night he drops her in an ash can. The smuggler, freed by the police, shows up with the informstion about the jewela in the rag doll. A systematic search is made for the child, who, in the meanwhile, has been taken in by a kindly old Jewish shoemaker with nine children. A police raid and a spectacular fire lead to her discovery.
