 Dor interests is well known. As AL
 derman, as tax collector and as sena- tor MT. Donnelly's record is without spot or blemiSh. In the Common Council chamber and in the state cap itol he has conducted himself as a consistent Democrat. His vote and voice has ever been raised for the great majority rather than in favor of corporate interests or of special priv ilege for the few.

He was returned to the office for a third term in 1909. During the past four, years he has put the office on an excellent business basis and his cour- teouS treatment of all who have to do business with the office assures him a handsome plurality on November 2.
 MT. Donnelly's record upon all pub lie questions stamps him as an off, cial worthy Of the confidence of the people. His public addresses since the commencement of the present campaign indicate where he will stand if he is the choice of the people for the office of Mayor. He is entitled to be believed when he says that he will wear no mans collar and he has shown in his record as Senator and as an Alderman that he was ever alert for the interests of the people. MT. Donnelly deserves we'll of the elec- tors and if every Democrat will do his duty election day he is certain to be the city's next chief executive. The strong personal endorsement which he has received from Mayor T. Buckingham proves that he is a man who can be trusted.

IRON WORKERS WIN IN BATTLE WITH
 U. $. AUTHORITIES
Especial from United Press. ]

NoPCCldI OHIlGu FI6SSl
 Indianapolis. Nov. 4.-The United States authorities here, today, tenn porarily lost their battle to obtain possession of the books and docu- mentS of the International Bridge and Structural Iron Workers for the purpose of making Federal investi- gation of the dynamiting charges in- volving John J. and James B.. Mo Namara.
 In a hearing on a petition filed by the ironworkers' attorneys before Judge Remster, in which Prosecuting Attorney Baker and Judge Mark ey were asked to show why the alliance books ought to be surrendered to any parties outside of the ironworkers' or ganiZation, that court held that, in view that the ironworkers had pre- ferred an appeal from the decision of Judge Markev, surrendered the ser vice to the Federal authorities, all questions relating to the surrender should be passed on by the higher courts.
 Pending final action in the case the books and documents will remain in possession of the Marion County sheriff on the order of Judge Penn ster. This will make it impossible for the United States authorities or the California authorities to obtain the evidence forx service until after the highest judicial tribunal in Indiana has passed on the case.

Christmas! Silk Stocking Season!

Now's the time and
here's the place to buy
them at temptingly low
Christmas prices. We're
making silk hosiery fes-
rivals for lots of people
by arranging three pairs
or six pairs in a bouquet
of beautiful colors and
slipping them into
Christmas boxes as dain-
ty and pleasing as the
hosiery itself. Every
body should have silk
hosiery made possible
once a year, at least
enough to last through
the entire year. One pair
of silk stockings or socks
has been known to make
a very Merry Christmas
all by itself. However,
we suggest some of these
single purchases, if you
don't feel like attempt
ing more. It is a sensible
way to spend a minimum
