It Is noticeable that while Mr. Shank received 60,001 votes In the mayoralty contest, the leading school board contestant received only 27,331, demonstrating that many voters paid no attention whatever to the make-up of the new school board. The race fvr places on the school board assumed a warmth never before witnessed In Indlaaapolls, duo to the controversy over whether the city Is to have new and better schools. The Bettel. Kehools League candidates stood on a piatform calling for the erection of buddings commensurate with the growth of the city, while the other slate gave no definite promises of on enlarged building program. The Citizens League candidates, however, pledged themselves not to aell school bonds for anything leas than par nnd observers pointed out at the time that such a policy practically would preclude the issuance of bond* because few public Issues are selling at par or above.

SHANK ELECTED BY BIGGEST LEAD EYER RECEIVED (Continued From Page On#.) Newton J, McGuire and W. S. Henry, a negro attorney, will receive positions In the legal department, It Is believed. Mr. MCGutre it one of the original Shank men. Financial affairs of both the Shank primary campaign and that Just closed were supervised by Herman Rlkhoff. He 1b a tailor with a ahop at 23 West Ohio street. John W. Mullln J a Democrat and has been a member of the police department for seventeen years. He Is known as one of the best detectives In the department. Martin J. Hyland was chief of police nnder the former Shank administration and now operates a private detective agency. The south side received an Important appointment In the naming of Robert R. Sloan as market master. He is a real estate dealer and a leader In all movements to improve his lection of tho city. He Is president of the Southeastern Improvement Association and the Belt Elevation League of the south side. Complete official returns show that the unofficial report that Mr. Shank carried the Second ward and Mr. Ralston the Eighth are Incorrect. Mr. Ralston carried the Second, his home ward, while Mr. Shank finally nosed him out in the Eighth. The Second was the only ward carried by tho Democratic nominee. Mr. Ralston carried his heme precinct, the First of the Third ward, by a vote of 685 to 270, while Mr. Shank won In Ills, the Second of the Ninth, by 497 to 874. The official returns 6how that the ”Republlcan for Ralston" sentiment did not develop as Democrats had hoped It would. Democrats expected Mr. Ralston to carry the Fourth. Second. Third, Eighth and Ninth wards by such smashing pluralities that Shank’s admitted superiority on the south side and In the First, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh ward* would be overcome. However, Mr. Shank took the Fourth, Third and Eighth away from Ralston by small margins and proceeded to pile up unheard of majorities In the five south ill# wards, the First, Seventh, Fifth and Sixth wards, and a comfortable lead In the Ninth ward.
Mr. Ralston carried bnt one precinct In the five sonth side wards. This was the Seventh of the Thirteenth Ward in which tho vote was Shank, 804, and Ralsto„n 847. Walter W. Wise, councilman-elect of the Fourth district, led the Republican ticket with 67,61)0 votes Shank trailed sh eentlre ticket with 7,631 less than the lender. Ralaton, on the other hand, led the Democratic ticket with 37,488. which waa 4,585 more than the vote of William E. Clauer, councilman-elect, who wan second high. Delbert O. Wllmeth, Republican, defeated Thomas E. Garvin, Democrat, for city Judge by a plurality of 33,284, the vote being 65,272 for Wllmeth and 31,978 for Garvin. John W. Ilhodehatnel, Republican, got 36,908 more votes for city clerk and Mrs, Martha Y r oh 1 Marson. Democrat. Rhodehamul’s total vote was 67,239 and Mrs. Marsou's, 30,231. So general was Mr. Shank's success, so great the margin nnd so widely scattered the support that there Is no grounds on which to dispute the assertion that he was the choice of tho greater number of the electors of thla community. While his traducers were still circulating the falsehoods and vituperation with which be had been met dally throughout the campaign, Mr. Shank, assured of his election, dictated the follewlng statement! “I am overjoyed M tho result sad I un quite sure that the people es Indianapolis will have no oause to regret the confidence they have expressed In Lew Shank at the ballot box. "Tho campnlgn wa# fraught with many disagreeable personalities. There ha* been much abuse of candidates in this contest. These I have forgotten. The disagreeable tilings are In the past. For ail who opposed my candidacy I have nothing but good will." Opposed in the Republican primaries by the city administration’s powerful machine by the two Republican newspapers, Mr. Shank won bis place on the Republican ticket by a safe plurality that was a reflection of public dissatisfaction with the existing control of the public affaire of the city. Met, as the nominee, with the active opposition of thousands of the members of his own party and the passive opposition of others in high places In the party organization, Mr. Shank was called upon to endure more personal abuse and a greater amount of defamation than any other man who has ever run for office In this city. In the face of this opposition, he constructed as nearly perfect an organlzatlon_ as has ever been seen in the city, Impressed bis sincerity nnd honesty on the voters of Indianapolis and came through with sufficient generosity left In his make-up to assure the thousands who voted against him and the few who sought to discredit him that he has already ‘forgotten the many disagreeable personalities of the campaign."

From Mayor Jewett, however, there was nothing but smiles and expressions of wonder over the tremendous majority Mr. Shank received.

EDWIN W. FIELD, Milwaukee, Wit. "I'm convinced if I had taken Tanlac two years ago, when my troubles first began, I would have been saved a world of suffering,” said Ed W. Field, 53S Jefferson St., Milwaukee, Wis. “My case proved that when a man's stomach goes wrong, everything goes wrong with him. The first thing I noticed out of the way was loss of appetite and next, that no matter how sparingly I ate, I was sure to have an attack of indigestion. This was two years ago and from that time on, until after I started on Tanlac, I kept going down hill at a steady rate. I finally got' so I couldn't walk a couple of blocks without having to stop aud rest and I was so nervous that often I sat up in a chair all night long. “Tanlac hag made anew man out of jne, my stomach Is as sound as a dollar and I feel fine all the time. I am a firm believer in Tanlac because I know it de-i livers the goods.” Tanlac Is sold in Indianapolis by Hook Drug Cos. and by leading druggists eva erywhere.—Adr.
