April 10, 1926 WINNETKA TALK 19 COUNTY CANDIDATES REPLY TO QUESTIONS (Continued from Page 7) duty and the fulfillment of my obliga- tion if I am entrusted with the ad- ministration of the Sheriff's office." "T would favor the appointment of the employees of the Sheriff's office by civil service examinations." "I in- tend to maintain a force of deputy sheriffs sworn to enforce all the laws of our state and community. Any Deputy Sheriff found to be lax in the performance of his duty will be dis- missed persons who will enforce all the laws without fear or favor," "I am in favor of retaining the Primary Election Law with such improvements or extensions as may be deemed advisable. I am against a return to the convention method of choosing candidates because it places in the hands of the political bosses the arbitrary power of plac- ing "hand-picked" candidates on the ballot and takes away from the people the right to chpose their own party candidates." FOR COUNTY JUDGE Daniel P. Trude Republican. Deneen faction, lawyer 22 years. For the past eight years As- sociate Judge of the Municipal Court. No business connection. Public schools. Dartmouth college. Univer- sity of Chicago. Northwestern Uni- versity Law school. Judge of the Municipal Court. Precinct and Sena- torial Committeeman when these of- fices were elected, and Notary Public. "To select men of the highest caliber to become the three members of the |, : RT cion Board of Election Commissioners; to | USMess C select with the greatest care the judges immediately and replaced by | and clerks of election in each of the | precinct. I myself served for many years as judge of election and clerk of election and know the arduous and exacting work required of these offi- cials, and realize the opportunity for honest mistakes, but also know that in | certain wards and precincts in the City of Chicago, honest elections are unknown and have been because of the failure of those charged with the prosecution of offenses against the law to properly prosecute those who practice vote frauds. I would insist that in precincts where the votes showed conditions that required ex- planation, that is, for instance, where one set of candidates received 288 votes and the opposition one each, that the judges and clerks be held to account strictly for this discrepancy, | which would indicate to the average | individual was not possible except | through vote frauds." i Joseph P. Savage [Lawyer. Assistant States Attorney. | University graduate. Insurance brok- | er. No party offices. "To insure hon- | : ob esty in elections, 1 believe that it is | essential that every facility be afford- | ed the electors to cast their ballots in |an slipshod clean and convenient polling places attended by the most honest and representative judges and clerks of election who can be secured to serve; that the law should be strictly en- forced as to the requirements for the right of suffrage; that every organi- zation which is honestly endeavoring to protect the public interest should be given credentials for the purpose of having watchers in the polling places during the casting and count- ing of ballots and making out the re- turns. I believe that three Election Commissioners, to whom the law en- trusts the direct management of elec- tions should be persons of high char- acter and, if possible, representative persons, preferably from the business or professional world, who have no political axes to grind and whose only desire is to keep faith with the pub- lic; further that these election com- missioners should not be interfered with by any persons, factions, or par- ties. I believe that they should not only use every effort to conduct elec- tions fairly and honestly, but should do their utmost to conduct them economically." Edmund Jarecki Judge of County Court. Lawyer. No 1 Public and priv- ate schools. Manual Training School. St. Stanislaus college. Northwestern university. Law. Alderman. Municipal Judge. "My past record ought to be the best answer as to what steps I will take to insure honesty in elections. FOR COUNTY CLERK William C. Scherwat ; Republican. Deneen faction, Assist- ant Probate Judge.

"In the Probate Court during the past 4 years, its record will show that I have been continuously | improve at my post endeavoring to the service wherever possible. I be- lieve that the County Clerk, like the County Treasurer and Sheriff, because of their having to do with financial [and tax matters, should not be allowed to succeed themselves in office for the reason that the continuous occupancy of this important post tends to create an oligarchy with a trend toward methods detrimental to the public good. I believe the County Clerk should file the petitions of can- didates for office in the order of their reception and not violate the law by favoring any particular political group." Favors appointment of em- ployes in this depratment by civil serv- ice examination for fitness. "I believe that the Primary election law should be retained, but that there is a great deal of room for improvement. 1 am not in favor of a return to the Con- vention Method. A limit should be placed upon the amount of money ex- pended by the canditiate for office which would equalize the chances and do away with the great objection many have to the present primary laws."
