The ballots of men long resident of other cities, of temporary absentees, of the in sane and even of the dead, were cast In the primary election ot last August in Chicago. "Repeaters" voted In platoons with the connivance of wil fully unseeing judges and clerks of election, and fraud, rampant to an extent hitherto unknown. In a city never famous for the purity of Its political atmosphere, rendered the re sultant party nominations practically worthless. These and other startling allega tion were made today In the report of the special grand Jury, which, af ter several weekB of dolvlng Into charges growing out of Chicago's first primary and returning 81 indict ments against two score or more of politicians and otnors, aajourneu. The Investigation, owing to the phy sical limitations, merely scratched the surface of the situation, accord ing to the report, and doubt is ex pressed that there has been an hon est city or general election In Chi cago in years.

"Cellar full of po tatoes, bins full of wheat, cribs full of corn, plenty of fatted hogs and good cattle, wood piles as high as the house, and money In the bank. Guess thls'll make those Wall street fellows who have been poking fun at the farmers sit up and take no tice." Twentieth Century Review. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. J. H. Redlfer to B. W.
