Tuesday Was a Day of Triumph

The Republicans in the great tidal wave of 1894 elected the entire city ticket here including three eouncilmen. It was hardly thought the three wards would be carried here this year but the excellent qualities of the Republican candidates and the great tendency of the voters toward Republicanism this year did the business.

We are of the •pinion that a large uumber of Democrats who voted with the Republicans Tuesday and at previous elections have come to stay, and will act with the Republican party hereafter. The Democrat party under Cleveland has shown its thorough incompetency to run this government and has thoroughly disgusted a lot of Democrats whe prefer the welfare and prosperity of the country to party spoilers.

The election Tuesday was a deserved triampV of the best men for the] welfare

and Personal.

of the city. We are mot ready to take any steps backward. The voters of Greenfield believe in vp to date progressive methods and the vote of Tuesday is an indorsement of the progressive policy of the present council. No man claims they have mude no mistakes, but their general policy has been correct and is believed in by our people. The councilmen elected Tuesday are solid, substantial taxpayers and together with the old councilmen will see that the best interests the city and taxpayers are properly looked after. We congratulate the city and the tax payers on the success of Messrs Walker, Hastou and Brand.

R:ilph, the three year old son of A. J. Wilson, of Carrolton, died Monday of scarlet fever. He was buried Tuesday at Mt. Lebanon. Max Herlich, of New Palestine, was the undertaker.

Jefl C. Patterson says he knows why John B. Huston ran so well in the second ward he used "Patterson's Bicycle cigdrs," and they will make any candidate run well. Candidates this fall should remember this.

It was a bold thing for the candidates for councilmen to do, both Republicans and Democrats to refuse to answer the Tribnne on the electric light question. Just think of the dire results had the Tribune opened up on any of them.

John B. Huston the successful candiite in the second ward, was serenaded last night l»y the mandolin club—Gus Hamilton, Arthur Moulden and Jewett Messick. There was quite a large crowd with them Mr. Huston set up the cigars and all had a good time. It is pleasant to be remembered by ones friends.

Quite a number of young people met at the home of Mr. Ball on North Pratt street Tuesday to surprise her son, Oren F., it being his birthday. The time was pleasantly spent until a late hour when refreshments were served and all departed for their home3 wishing their young friend many more such happy birthdays.

Tlie Court House Commenced.

Today Messrs Geake and Henry came down from Ft. Wayne and are staking off the ground for the Naw Court House. They do not seem to be much alarmed about the law suit against the Commis sioners to set aside the contract. They brought attorney H. C. Hammer of Ft. Wayne down with them. There is altogether too much talk for this matter tobe settled easily. The tax payers want that every thing should be perfectly straight and above suspicion.

Vaughn Set'Em Up Too Sooa.

A short time befor the count was finished in the First Ward Tuesday night, Vaughn was a few votes in the lead and he was so certain of election he came up to Mike Quigley'sand said "Mike, set 'em up to the boys, Vaughn's elected." Quigley remarked that the count was not finished, and the result .might be different. "Mike you set 'em up Vaughn's elected" was Vaughn's rejoinder. As soon as the vote was counted and Walker declared elected, Vaughn departed for home with "nothin' to say my darter, nothinto say."

The certainty of Mr. Brand's election made them too careless.

Rush County's Noted Horsemen and Wealthiest Citizens.

Augustus Glidden, of Raleigh, Rush county, died at Lewisville, at the home of his brother, P. E. Glidden, formerly of this city Tuesday, at 9:30 a. m. He has been ill for the past six months with what is supposed to have been kidney trouble, from a weight of 217 pounds he dwindled down to 75 or 80 pounds. He was fiftyfive years of age and lived in Rush county about all his life. As a horseman he was noted all over the United States as a breeder of fine horses, having trained and developed ovej forty head of horses that have won laurels on the American turt. Among the hones that he handled early in his career are Topsy, sold for $3,000 Lou Loder, $5,000 Belle Loder, $2,000 Sweetzer, $5,500 Nellie Davis, $2,S00 Indiana, $5,000. Fifteen years ago at^the height of the success of old Blue Bull 75, he sold the following well known horses by that sire: Richard for $5,000 Lady Blackwind, $1,500 Blly Davis, $5,500 Greenbacks, $6,000 Katie Hall, Chance and Chance Jr. In later years he has owned or held large interests in Wilson, for a one fifth interest in which he got $5,000 Grafton, sold for $16,000, and Edwin Forrest, sold for $15,000. Mr. Glidden owned one thousand acres of land mostly in Rush county, the Grand hotel in Rushville, and other property, and left an estate valued at $700,000. Mr. Glidden was a soldier three years in the late war, serving with credit in the Thirtysixth Indiana Regimemt. He was a member of Joel Wolfe Post, G. A. R., under the auspices of which the funeral will take place at Raleigh on Thursday afternoon. Insurance Protection vs. insurance Specu latlon.

The day has passed when men have to be argaed with to convince them that they need protection in the way of life insurance. Is the company good, and how much can I conveniently cairy are the questions asked. With the Fidelity the security is the best, and it furnishes a larger 'amount of insurances for the money than any tontine speculation or endowment investment in existence. A reformation in insurance is demanded by the.people and tbe Fidelity .meets the demand. J, M. HUPFOKD, Agt. ttreenleld, Ind.
