SHANK’S RECORD IS DEFENDED IN MANY SPEECHES Service in Office Set Forth to Meet Propaganda of Enemies. RALLY PLANS COMPLETE Final preparations for the big Shank rally at Fountain Square next Saturday night were concluded at committee meetings today. Following conferences with ward chairmen today, John Walker, marshal of the demonstration, announced that he expected a crowd of more than 15,000. Women workers will ride In automobiles, which will be assembled at the Shank storage house, 227 North New Jersey street at 7 o’clock Saturday evening. Men workers will meet at Virginia avenue and South street. The motor parade -cwill travel on New Jersey to Massachusetts avenue, thence to Pennsylvania street and on Pennsylvania street to Virginia avenue and out the avenue to Fountain Square The speaking will take place about one-half block from the square proper. Speakers at the meeting will include the best talent In the Shank organization. CANDIDATE GREETED BY LARGE CROWDS. The Shank meetings last night looped from the south side to the extreme northeastern part of the city. Large crowds greeted the candidate at each of the eight stops. Mr. Shank adhered closely to the speech he has delivered in other parts of the city, giving much time to the subject of tax reduction and the urgent need of overthrowing the Jewett machine. He also criticized the Invasion of homes by police morals squads. An attempt to offset the propaganda spread by political enemies of Mr. Shank was made by Newton J. McGuire of the Shank speakers’ bureau at several meetings. “I have known Mr. Shank personally and In an official way for many years,” •aid Mr. McGuire, “and I know him to be a shrewd, capable business man and a big-hearted, altruistic leader. MALIGNED AND MISREPRESENTED. ‘‘He is not really appreciated in Indianapolis, because be has been maligned and misrepresented by those whose interest it is to destroy him politically. He is the only man in the thirty years that I have lived in Indianapolis who has attempted to make a campaign on his own personal popularity. All others have firsr obtained the support of the clubs, the organization, the press or gome powerful corporate influence to put them over. This fact alone ought to cause thousands of people to vote for him. Any candidate who Is brought out, nominated and elected by some powerful Interest or influence, other than his popularity with the people Is a dangerous man no matter how good he may be. ‘’Shank is the one man in all these years who has taken his compalgn promises seriously and honestly has tried to carry them out. In other words he has tried to protect the people's interests from pillage, plunder and exploitation and that fact alone has brought down upon him an avalanche of condemnation from the big business Interests, that have their hand in the pocket of the city treasury. "During his administration, as mayor of Indianapolis, these big business interests watched him like a hawk watches Its prey, and just as soon as they saw that Samuel Lewis Shank was deter mined upon the same honesty and square dealing in the public office that he observed in private business, invisible government immediately swooped down upon him and set to work to destroy him as a factor in Indianapolis politics, end they have been pursuing him ever since and they are just now making their supreme effort to crush him. LIVES TP TO PROMISES. “Many candidates for mayor In the past have made elaborate promises, but I no one ever tried to live up to them as Shank has tried to do. The labor troubles at the end of Shank's administration afforded the long sought for opportunity to kill him off politically, but he was too smart to walk into the trap aet for him. Namely, to precipitate a riot that would likely have caused the deaths of hundreds of the defenseless and the innocent, and subjected the city to countless and costly damage suits. He simply refused to run the street cars with the police power of the city, the same as Governor Ralston refused to run them with the military power of the State. Both officials stood ready to protect property, but not to run those cars. "All through this supreme crisis. Mr. Shank insisted, begged and implored the Interested parties to submit to arbitration, which plan was finally adopted and matters were peacefully settled. “Professor Howe has been running about the city calling Mr. Shank a quitter, a runaway mayor, a joke, and his henchman say he shall not be mayor. I tell you, as a life long friend of Mr. Shank and a member of his legal department when he was mayor, with a full knowledge of his public life, that ha is not a quitter, he is not a runaway mayor. That statement is false to the core. He is a man who has the courage of his convictions. He is the man who during the greatest crisis that this city has ever had, saved the good name of Indianapolis and prevented bloodshed, disgrace and dishonor, and the Good Lord only knows how much destruction of property he saved.

POSSESESs MIMOR. “it is true that Mr. Shank has a humorous strain, but many a man would give his all to have that faculty which Mr. Shank so richly possesses. Lincoln was a Joker, so is Shank. Lincoln was a commoner, so is Shank. Lincoln was criticised worse than Shank has ever ■been. No man amounts to much who has not been criticised and frequently the more the criticism the more his worth, Rnd always so when criticism Is Inspired, as It Is now against Jlr. Shank. “Had the results of those labor troubles been otherwise, and riot and bloodshed ensued, no one can tell what it might have led to and Mr. Shank today might have been, as the result thereof, the most hated and despised citizen of Indianapolis. As it is he Is the most beloved and respected of all. In the eyes of the masses of the people, as the result of this primary will undoubtedly show.” Shank meetings tonight will be held at Community Hall, Troy avenue and Carson street; Tenth and Kural streets. 1551 Massachusetts avenue, TwentyFourth and Sheldon streets. Nineteenth and Arsenal streets. Dream Theater, Roosevelt avenue and Station stree*; 1439 Y'andes street and the charity bail of the Brotherhood of Railway Carmen at Tomlinson Hall.
