SHANK SAYS
JEWETT MUST
MAKE ANSWER
Insists on Replies to Eight
Questions Submitted to
Mayor.
BURGLARY PLAN HINTED

Mayor Charles ". Jewett was chal-
lenged to answer eight questions by
Samuel Lewis Shank in speeches last
night under pain of being adjudged a
crook or a coward by default.
Several days ago I addressed eight
public questions to the mayor touching
on the garbage plant deal, the condition
of streets. the failure to establish play
grounds and other matters of vOtal i'm
pOrtanCe to the citizens of Indianapolis"
said Mr.. Shank. He has not answered
those questions, although he is stumping
the city in an effort to get the people
to confirm his choice for his successor.
Charles idea of a hot campaign
speech is to declare with frantic empha
sis that Lew Shank shall not be mayor
of Indianapolis again, the inference be-
ing that they who think for Charlie and
promise him high hOnOrs are planning
some fancy counting on election day.
Where they get the idea that IndianapO-
lis is going to stand for a repetition Of
the daylight burglary Of four years ago
is beyond me.
SPOILED
CHILDREN.
They remind me of spoiled children.
Tuesday evening they hired all the bands
in town to interrupt my meeting on In
diana avenue, the biggest demonstration
ever held there. The bands drew
small crowd from the outskirts of our
meeting where people could not hear.
Then the Indianapolis News devOtes six
columns. including five stories and two
editorials to clarifying the Howe meet
ing, which at the same time they said
Tor
and of no more importance than dozens
Of meetings held every week. My meet
ing they covered in about three sticks.
II the Howe meeting was only a routine
affair why did the News play it up as
the biggest story of the day. There is
a direct lie in that sort of thing. 4
newspaper which purpOrts to tell the
news and then performs in that child
ish fashion is on a parity with con-
fidence men.
The News also made a crack about a
horse which 1t said might make a speech
for me. Without meaning anything per
sonal to Dick Smith, I'll say that if any
barnyard folk do speak for me they won't
bray.
SAYS RUFF PAGE
SECOND IN COMMAND.
The News is trying hard to find a
gambler in the crowd supporting me to
match against Rufe Page, negro crap
shooter, who is second in command of
the Howe forces. They'll find one al
right because the truth gives no con
Germ to the institution of distilled
hypocrisy"
DR.. W. n. Foreman, 1880 Broadway,

East Michigan street and Hamilton ave
nue., last night in the interest Of MI.

rected that Mr.. Howe would enter the
scrap in earnest and demonstrate that
an ex professor can muddy up the at
mosphere as vigorously as anybody else.
Speaking at two meetings on the south
side and another at the Savoy Theater
in West indianapolis Mr.. Howe took a
dig at Mr.. Shank when he said:
you want things when you need
them You don't want to wake up some
morning and find out the city govern
ment has run off and left you over night.
You want responsible government and
a responsible mayor. You don't want
a man who is like a runaway horse
liable to run away again"
Mr.. Robisons attacks upon the meth
DDS Of the administration of Mayor
Charles W. Jewett In conducting the
public service departments and Mr..
Robisons proposal that the city asphalt
plant be scrapped drew from Mr.. Howe
the statement:
"If A man is a good business man and
puts on the bill boards that indianapolis
needs business man for mayor, why
can not he take this plant and operate
it efficiently and at a saving to the
peoplef"
In a speech to the employees Of the
Insley Iron Company at noon today. Pro-
fesSor Howe stated he was not asking the
voters to do something for him, but was
urging them to do the right thing for
their city by making sure that a com
petent man Is nominated for mayor in
the primary May g.
The candidate asked that the records
of every candidate be gone into, mot only
for the last year or two. but for twenty
five years. See who their associates have
been. what kind of men they have been
hitched up with. and what their intimate
history is When man comes out for
public office the voters have a right to
know everything about him. If you will
study the qualifications Of all the candi-
dates you will be able to go to the polls
and make an intelligent choice, because
by their past records you can judge a
mans ability and tell what he will do
as your representative and agent"
Mr.. Howe discussed the tax question
and said the deficit which resulted from
the loss Of liquor license fees would be
paid or this year and that he expects a
substantial decrease IN tina levy for next
year

the fraud that they have used, boosted
and gloated over IN every primary since
1912
THE people of Indianapolis do not
know the full extent of the r0ttenness of
the primary and election four years ago.
In both instances fraudulent tickets were
printed and used. A representative OF
the machine was sent to Chicago at the
time Of the primary because the scheme
was crooked and they did not dare to
trust any one of the hundred or more
printers in indianapolis to handle such
a matter.

! Mayor Charles w Jewett when he was
appointed a member Of the board Of pub
| lie works. When Schuyler a. Haas re-
signed from the board in 1919 Mayor
Jewett promoted Mr.. Lemaux to the
presidency of the board, in which posi-
ton he is considered by many persons
to have been the most valuable man,
from a civic standpoint, in the entire
city government
FOUGHT FOR WHAT HE
CONSIDERED RIGHT.
! Being very positive in his views, Mr..
Lemaux was noted for his OutspOken
way of expressing them. Many times he
has differed with the mayor and other
members of the administration upon pol
icies of the board, but he always held to
his view and in many cases by his ability
as a two-fisted fighter got what he
thought was the right solution Of prob
/ lens.
His record as president of the board
so commended itself to influential citi-
zens that hundreds urged him to become
a candidate for the Republican nomina
ton for mayor-fn the present campaign.
For several weeks it appeared that he
would enter the race, but circumstance
led him to believe it would be wisest for
him to stay out
He cared a great deal for the fair name
of Indianapolis and had prepared to
spend his old age here, having erected
beautiful home at $500 Park avenue, next
TO that of his son.
WAS AN ARDENT
BASEBALL FAN.
His friends have enjoyed telling OF the
JOY he got out Of baseball. He was one
of the most loyal fans the Indianapolis
team had and never failed to boost at
time when he thought he might help win
a game for the home team. Although his
doctors advised against it. he attended
the opening game Of the baseball season
at Washington Park on April 10.
Mayor Charles w. Jewett expressed his
personal sorrow and the grief Of all who
knew Mr.. Lemaux In a statement which
he issued as follows:
"The loss Of George Lemaux cannot be
estimated. He was friend Of sterling
worth and loyalty. He was a man of
high purpose. splendid ability. honesty
and integrity His first thought as
public official was for Justice and fair
dealing. His services on the board of
public works were of the highest type.
He sacrificed his own personal business
that he might be Of service TO the city of
Indianapolis In the discharge Of his
duties as chairman Of the board of public
works he was fearless and courageous
and exercised splendid Judgment. I can
not express my personal grief caused by
his death. His worth to the city as
100 per cent American citizen and an ef
fcient public servant cannot be estimated.
The city has lost ono Of Its greatest cit-
zens and his friends have lost a real

MANY CANDIDATES
DOUBLE-CROSSED.

Promises had been made to every can
didate that If they would stand by Jew
EFT they would ed put on the slate Then
the real slate was made up and ennis
saries sent to Chicago to get the tickets
printed and on the day of the primary
the double cross was put over on every
candidate excepting the few approved
by the machine.
That was not the worst Of it. At the
time Of the election & copy Of the Of
ficial ballot was taken to Chicago and
thousands Of fraudulent tickets printed.
These tickets in large quantities were
placed with certain precinct committee
men with instructions to hold them In
their possession and that on the night
Of the election they would he notified
how many had to be substituted for
actual votes cast IN the ballot box
This was dore IN more than twenty
precincts. If the boasts of the gang
are to be depended on. after the tickets
had been substituted the discovery was
made that the Chicago product was
printed on different paper and when the
real and bogus tickets were placed side
by side the fraud was easily noticeable.
CHUCKLED AFTER
DANGER PASSED.
Some Of the parties responsible did
not sleep well until the tine fixed by
law had expired and they were allowed
to destroy the ballots. which had been
preserved. All Of these charges cannot
be substantiated now because the evil
dence was destroyed, but after the dan
ger point had passed the parties who
were responsible for it laughed and
chuckled and boosted about how they
had fixed the opposing candidate, who
at that time was Mr.. Shank
If the same job thimble- rigging is
not contemplated now, then why are
so many henchmen boasting that the
Robson and Shank people will wake up
the morning after the primary to find
that they have been thrown as one Of
the good government and clean politics

and later the presidency. This office
Professor Howe is said to have admin
istered in such a manner as to bring
the college to the brink of ruin, and
necessitate the employment of Pat Page
as athletic director at a salary of $500
and a financial secretary al an equal
expense in an effort to put Butler back
on a sound financial basis.
w. o. Dunlavey. presided over the
meeting and following Mr.. Halls talk
E. J. Robson spoke.
In part Mr.. Hall said:
II have known Professor Howe since
boyhood We were students in Butler
College together and l want to say very
frankly that he was at all times a bril-
liant student a student whose ability
always have admired And thanks to
the kindness of a benefactor he was en-
abled to pursue his studies at Butler, in
Germany and at Harvard University.
There is no question but that Professor
Howe knows as much about the German
language as any man in indianapolis to-
day He can give you offhand the
derivation Of any German word and can
parse any German verb a easily as If 1t
were IN his native tongue. He has taught
German for years and during his years
in Germany he thoroughly absorbed the
German viewpoint in language, ecOnOm-
les, politics and the system of German
kultur'
But as cultured and as highly edu
Gated, particularly in German, as Pro-
fessor Howe is, ii was with feelings of
the keenest amusement that I read a few
days ago the wonderful tributes pail
Professor Howe by Clsris Adams and
Judge Quincy A. Myers at the Mckinley
Club meeting. And as l read I wondered
what sic wand had transferred my
friend Of thirty five years into such
hero. OF course, l realized that Mr..
Adams is still in his tender years and
has not yet passed out Of the fairyland
of his youth; but l could not understand
why man Of the mature Judgment and
discretion Of Judge Myers should so ex
aggerate facts for the 1nere sake of po-
