WINNETKA TALK September 22, 1928 The Voters' Column by Hoyt King That the Special Grand Jury and Special State's Attorneys are getting results is evidenced this week by the beginning of trial of seventeen of Morris Eller's followers on charges of conspiracy to commit fraud, violence and murder at the April primary. They include his nephew and chauf- feur There are a state senator and a former policeman from State's Attor- ney's Crowe's office in the list. While Morris Eller and his son, Judge Eller, charged as leading con- spirators, will secure a separate trial before another judge, the separate con- viction of their friends in an imme- diate trial may greatly embarrass the Ellers. It will leave no question in the minds of the public of the guilt of Morris Eller, candidate for Drainage Trustee, and his son, the judge. Their political activities will be ended. While this trial is conducted by Spe- cial State's Attorneys, it is perhaps the only one that will be. Hence the im- portance of electing a State's Attorney who will carry on the work of a clean- up such as Judge John A. Swanson assures us he will do. Each local community is now being organized to get out the vote for Judge Swanson and complete the work begun by the citizens' uprising in the primaries.
