We have always contended that one mile a minute is more speed than any man can use with safety on the open road. So that is the maximum pace we guarantee to our owners. Nevertheless, Paige has been the winner in many races. In the Phoenix-Los Angeles L race, for instance, it was a Paige that flashed X"* across the line first. It had traveled 70b ' miles across the desert beating a field of twenty cars-most of them acknowledged “racers'* driven by American speed kings. The Paige won that gruelling contest not be y cause it was the raatett car —but be.ause it r was the most fliablm car. It went through without a single atop —without 1 so much as opening the hood durin gthe entire 70b miles. That is why it won. That is why Paige cars will alwayt win if the race is only long enough and rough enough to be a real test of endurance. That, also, is one excellent reason why your next car should be a New Series Fairfield “Six-4b.“ )» PAIGE-DETROIT MOTOR CAR CO , DETROIT, MICH.

The struggle for Municipal Ownership in Detroit has been going on for twenty years. After ten years we secured a constitutional provision authorizing cities to own their own street railways. After several years more of struggle, we secured the necessary Municipal Ownership legislative enactments. Shortly thereafter, Detroit voted over four to one for Municipal Ownership. But we do not get Municipal Ownership. The reason is because we have not had a Mayor since Hazen S. Pingrec. who was honestly in favor of Municipal Ownership. We have had several genuine Municipal Ownership men run for Mayor, but Connolly and his machine have beaten them either at the primaries or the poll*. The above reprint from an F.vening News Editorial tells what the trouble has always i»een. Judge Connolly is now and always has l>een opposed to Municipal Ownership. Judge Connolly opposed Mr. Marx in 1012 when he t»elieved the Mayor was a genuine Municipal Ownership man.

T hen Judge Connolly supported him and in 1914 defeated a genuine Municipal Ownership man, Frederick F. Ingram, the nominee of his own party. W’e can never secure Municipal Ownership w-ith Judge Connolly aa Mayor. Charles S. Hampton has been an active Municipal Own ership man for twenty years. W’e can and will secure Municipal Ownership with Mr. Hampton as Mayor. He has been fighting for Municipal Ownership for twenty years. He was one of the original members of the Municipal Ownership Committee which made Municipal Ownership possible and has given his time, his money and his energy to every campagn for this great reform. In this emergency, every believer in Municipal Owner ship should demand a Democratic ballot next Tuesday and vote for Charles S. Hampton for Mayor.
