Chicago, as usual, after a lot of charges and counter-charges elected a Democratic administration. About two-thirds of the eligible voters of that great municipality voted and a large majority expressed satisfaction with the Democrats continuing the conduct of business. w —o 0 Dr. C. B. Goodwin of Kendallville called on all his patients Monday and then left, for a little drive to Tuscon, Arizona to visit a son, a couple of weeks. The doctor was 93 years old that day and was also observing his sixtyfirst year as a practicing physician at Rome City and Kendallville. Quite a record! Whether it is in federal government, state government or the Smallest city government, when the “Bird Doggers" take over and run the affairs of the people without consideration of the people, there always is a ballot box revolution. Whether it is a president, governor or mayor, Mr. Average citizen is too smart now days to settle for just a few pats on the back, with the big fellow getting all the governmental advantages. 0 0 The closeness of the Michigan election and the apparent victory of several Democrats for state offices held by Republicans for more than’ fifty years is a clear call of the people that big business in government has no right to edge ouj. the little fellows. It’s a good situation in any part of the nation when the people rise up and the voters of Michigan have told the rest of the nation and the Eisenhower administration in particular that there are too many “Bird Dog Wilsons" in our government. 0 o——The beautiful new home of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Scott of Bluffton, just being completed after a year and a half of work by the Scotts was completely destroyed by fire Monday night, together with all the contents. They had just moved in. Contributions are already being made to give the Scotts a new start. Dick is an employe of the Peter’s Shell Station and they had saved for years to build the home.

stirred the heart of every one in the community and they are trying to give the Scotts and their two children another chance. They carried no insurance. 0 0 The Plan Commission gave careful consideration before recommending that Gage’s third addition be part of the city. Decatur is growing and unless we plan carefully we will grow so fast that our utilities will be unable to keep up with us. The south part of the city needs a more adequate sewer system. We don’t believe that it will break down with the addition of these sixteen proposed homes In Gage's addition and we are glad that they will become part of our city. However future problems, which the Plan Commission is wrestling with, will continue to arise. Soon there will be a school in the south part of the city and with the school there no doubt will be many more new .homes. It is better for the Plan Commission to consider the potential troubles now and attempt to correct them than to later have a complete breakdown in sewage, lights, power and water. 0 0- — The Chicago Tribune, control of which was held by the late Col. Robert McCormick, will continue operation under a threeman trusteeship. All of the late Colonel's wealth eventually will go to Chicago charities) His will reflects the gractousness which he demonstrated through life. Wd are sure the Tribune will continue to hold its place high in the category of great world newspapers. Strong feature, sports and society sections have built the Tribune almost into a position by itself in American journalism. Editorially, the Tribune has been Republican, with a strong t<3uch of independence. General manager and one of the trustees in pie new publishing arrangement will be Don Maxwell, Hoosier born newsman and graduate of De Pau w University. Maxwell is a brother of Phil Maxwell, also of the Tribune staff. The latter delivered the Decatur high school Commencement address here in 1954.
