ALL WELL KNOWN MEN

A. LIST «IF REPUBLICAN COUNTY OA.N- .. DIDATJSS.

JUsreUDtatlve Citizens to be Voted for liMt Tuesday—A Sketch of Tbelr Lives.

The Sunday Times, an enterprising news

paper published in the interest of organized

labor of this city, appeared last Sunday

with a Berles of handsomely illustrated

sketches of the Republican candidates of

Vigo coutny, as follows:

Jacob D. Early, Republican nominee for

state senator, is one of the most popular

and well known lawyers in this city. He

was born in Terre Haute, November 4, 1859,

within 100 yards of where he lives today.

After being prepared for college at a private

school in Baltimore, he entered Wabash

College in the sophomore year, from which

well known institution he went to Kenyon College, where he graduated in 1879, at the head of his class. He studied law at the University of Virginia and was admitted to the bar in this city in 1883 and has been In the practice of his profession ever since. He is one of the most thoroughly educated and best read men in the city. He belongs to numerous college and patriotic societies, is

Mason of high rank and a K. of P. He was the first exalted ruler of the original lodge of Elks. Mr. Early has been an active

politician, both in local, state and national politics. While he has been often mentioned for congressional honorB he had declined. With his wide acquaintance among well known people of the state and the leaders of his party, Mr. Early as state senator will wield an influence during the meeting of the next legislature that cannot be overestimated. He will add to the office a dignity which its importance well deserves, and no man who votes for Jacob D. Early for state senator will ever have occasion to regret it.

On* D. Davis.

Ora D. Davis is a son of S. B. Davis, editor of the Hoosier State of Newport, where the subject of this sketch was born November 30, 1870. He attended the schools of his native place and entered the law department of the University of Michigan, and was graduated therefrom in June, 1891. In December of that year he was admitted to the Vigo county bar, with which he has since been identified. In the general election of 1894, he was elected to represent Vigo, Vermillion and Sullivan counties as Joint repre-

sentaitve in the state legislature, receiving

a majority of 715, overcoming a previous

majority of 1,680 in the three counties. In

the legislature he served with credit, being

a member of the committees on judiciary,!

legislative apportionment and education, all

being important positions, and he was also

chairman of the committee on phraseology

of bills. It was his first experience as a member of the legislature, and from the favorable showing he made it may be safely

said for him that he has a bright future be- 1891

Republican, has never aspired to office. He

has been prominent ln politics, and was for

several years Republican committeeman

from his township, but never before .was a

candidate for the suffrage of the peoDle.

Farmers generally, no matter what their

politics may be, agree that there is no more

practical farmer, or mo~e honest, upright

man that Homer Morean. He is the father

of seven sons, every one a staunch Republi-

can. Mr. Morgan, Republican candidate for

representative, is a director of the Vigo

Fair Association, and is well known to the

tion with the Vandalla Railroad Co.,!

mfhlirln., with a leg ative office Mr.

bein£ one of the coolest and molt reliable members of the force. He resigned his position In 1892, 'When the Republicans nominated him for sheriff, and although he nude a creditable race, he went down in the landslide of that year so disastrous to the Republicans. In 1894 he was again honored by his party by the nomination for the same office, and although pitted against an unusually strong man, Mr. Butler was successful by the decisive plurality of 354 votes. He is possessed of the qualities essential to the position he holds, is affable in manner, yet linn when duty requires it.

James E. Piety.

James E. Piety, Republican candidate for judge of the Circuit Court, is a native of Prairie Creek township, Vigo county. He was born on a farm on the 6th day of June, 1867, and is 38 years of age.

At the age of 18 he commenced teaching in the schools of his district, earning the money wherewith he was enabled to attend college at Valparaiso two yearB, and to prepare himself for the profession of his choice, that of an attorney. He read law in the office of the law firm of Golden & Wilkin of Marshall, 111., for several years, when he was admitted to practice at the bar by the Supreme Court of Illinois. In 1883 Mr, Piety took up his residence in this city, taking a prominent part among the attorneys of Terre Haute and holding the office of pj"osecuting attorney from 1888 to 1890, and at present is connected with his brother, under the law firm of Piety & Piety, In conducting a large and lucrative business in fact, it may be said of him that he is a self-made man in more senses than one, and if elected will discharge the duties of the office with ability.

William Tichenor.

William Tichenor Is a self made man in the best sense of that term, he having worked his way up from the bottom to ari honorable position in his profession. Coming to this city In 1892, he has made rapid strides in has profession. Mr. Tichenor has always been a Republican and he is in politics what he is in everything else a hus

tler. His party honored h.m with the nomination for county prosecutor at its late convention. Ho was born in Centervtlle, in this county, In 1859, and was left fatherless at the age of three years. He lived on the farm until he attained the age of 17 years, when he left home to begin for himself.

Thomas W. Adams, commissioner from the first district, and candidate for re-elec-tion, is a native of Parke county, but moved to Vigo county when a mere boy, and has for many years resided in. Nevins township. So popular is he in that community that although the township is strongly Democratic, he was elected township trustee as a Republican in 1888, and filled the office with credit. He had the honor of being the first Republican ever elected to that office. Mr. Adams is regarded as one of the most prosperous farmers in Nevins township. His careful management of his own business affairs is sufficient assurance that he is a safe man in whose hands to entrust the business of the county. He is serving his first term as commissioner, and has in ev

ery

way proved himself worthy of the entire' confidence of the people. Careful and economical, he has ever shown himself to be a friend to the taxpayers, who certainly are interested in having men in these imoortant positions who will look after their interests. He has added to his already large list of friends since he assumed the office, and it is safe to say that he will be re-elect-ed next month by a largely increased plurality. Mr. Adams has always been an earnest worker for the best Interests of .his party, and the night was never too dark or thp weather too.bad to curb his enthusiasm or decrease his efforts in behalf of the party to whose interests he attaches him
