CHICAGO POLITICS' WORST IN NATION, DWTOEALS Philadelphia and New York Are Angelic in Comparison. By N. D. Cochran. times Staff Corresoondent CHICAGO. Aug. s.—lnformation privately given to members of the Reed Slush Fund ComViittee Indicated to them that the rotten condition of politics in Chicago and Cook s County haaoio parallel in any other American city. Compared with Chicago, political government in New York and Philadelphia is angelic. If the Senate committee had the time it could take the lid off because of the intimate connection between the senatorial primary and the primary for the .nomination of offlqjals in Chicago, and Cook County. f .Judges Count Out Votes a special State’s attorned''before the grand Jury reveals .that in some Chicago wards it makes no difference how the people vote. The judges of election don't count the ballots at all, but make return they see fit. y Coal and building material are sold to the various governing boards Tiy companies owned end controlled by leaders of -the Crowe-Barrett Republican faction. For example, Charles Barrett is on the board of / tax review, and the Barrett brothers are interested in both a coat and a building material company. Os the three park boards, tfhe south park is the most important, becatfse all the property in the loop is in she south park district and the board has power to issue bonds arid levy taxes. Members of the north and west park boards are appointed by the Governor. Each hoard has its own police force and its own lawyers. 8 , ' As the State’s attorney has about fifty lawyers oti his pay roll as assistants and the city, through the , corporation' council and the sanitary district, the county board, the three park boards and others, each has its own lawyers, an army of lawyers politicians are on the publbb payroll. One of the Crowe-Barrett candidates for municipal judge this year also runs a big undertaking establishment. Negro Tijss Ed Wright, who was on the witness stand and admitted that he was the whole thing in*the Second ward, is a * member' of the Illinois commerce committee with Brank L. Smith, and is a power in Chicago politics. He is a full-blooded Negro and absolutely dominates polities in I the Second ward, whose population

is §o"per cent colored. He is a lawyer and a Crowe-Barrett leader. _The judicial situation is interesting. A prominent Chioago lawyer not in politics tells me that Judges are selected mainly because of thetr nationality. j Here’s how the two party organi zations get mixed up: On petition of State’s Attorney Crowe, a Republican boss, presiding Chief Justice Lynch of thesCriminal Ceurt, appointed a man named McDonald a special State's! attorney. Judge Lynch and McDonald are Brennan Democrats*. Both regular and special grand juries report to Judge Lynch. Next Year Another Judge Next year Judge William Lindsay, will be presiding chief justice of the Criminal Cqurt. He was madey judge, according to my informant, by Jimmy Whalen, a Brennan Democrat, on Jjje sanitary district board. As for the lawless element in Chicago and Cook County, there Is no doubt that it pays somebody tot protection. many separate police and detective forces it isn.'t easy to say who gets the graft. If the entire Senate committee headed by Senator Reed were to pin, in a solid month -hi Chicago, it could render a great public sprVlce. not only to Chicago, but to the people of American cities where crime, politics and public utilities work together.
