Mr. Sinclair roiled up a vote never approached before by a • Democratic candidate for a state, office. He did it in the face of nonsupport if not actual opposition from the Roosevcli, administration and of active opposition from many, Os the leading regular Democrats in California. He built his own organization—a personal ' machine”— j and. although a political lone wolf., hfe headed a pack of voters which may number as many as three-; quarters of a million wJven the count is complete.

Kern, had been elected. The procession was partly disrupted on Washington street by a false firm alarm run which some Democrats attributed to “a soreheaded Republican.” Incomplete returns in the councilmanic elections showed contests too close to allow determination of the nine who will work with Judge Kern during the next four years. Under the Indianapolis election
law; each party nominates six members for city council and the nine receiving the highest number of votes are elected. The Democratic council ticket apparently elected is Edward B. Raub, Ross H. Wallace, Nannette Dowd, Silas J. Carr, Adolph J. Fritz and Dr. Theodore Cable. At 263 precincts, the vote for the Republican council ticket was: Carl H. Buddenbaum, 63,390; Edward R Kealing, 63,536; Ralph F. Moore, 63,290; William A. Oren, 63,376; John A. Schumacher, 63,385, and Herman E. Bowers, 63,290. Demicratic totals far exceeded these figures.
