JAMES 7. ELWELL

Former Senator James T.
Elweli, candidate for election
as mayor, is a practical, pro-
gressiye business man who, IL
elected, will exert special eff
fort to bringing new industrial
and commercial enterprises to
the city. The effecting of an
enlar rged development, for
Minneapolis will mean more
payrolis with resultant great
er prosperity for the citizens of
the city in general.
That Mr.. Elwell is well quail
ified to take the lead in a more
progressive era for Minneapolis
is well demonstrated by his re-
cord as a business man, a legis-
lator, and civic leader. There
is one outstanding feature
about the work of Senator Ell
well in behalf of Minneapolis
he has never left undone any
thing that might influence a
new industrial or commercial
concern in locating in the city.
An industrial expert, he has
built great many factory
buildings, and has been instru-
mental in the launching of
many of the important manu-
featuring concerns of the city.
Drafted as candidate for
mayor because of his record,
Mr.. Elwell's election means a
clean, progressive and econom-
ical administration. An eco
nomical administration, as Mr..
Elwell sees it, means no redue-
tion in pay to city employees.
He is friendly to labor, as evil
denced by his record as a mem

Minneapolis AS Mayor!
