REPUBLICAN CITY TICKET.
Mr. Dickinson, candidate for mayor,
is a man of the people. He believes in
the best interests of the city of his
choice,- the home of bis family, and
where his children are being educated.
As waa said by Mr. Gluek when nomi
nating Mr. Dickinson, "there is no man
in the county in whom the people have
greater confidence; he has the best in
terests of the city at heart. He will be
the mayor of no faction, but of all the
people with a view to the best interests
and the rights of all concerned.''
Mr. Dickinson, in his essential charac
ter, his occupations, his habits of
thought and his friendships, is a plain,
honest, genial, fair-minded man and
neighbor, and these are included in the
qualities which make good executives
fidelity, honesty and capability.
Bert J. Galley for treasurer baa no
opposition in the race and will do as he
has done, account promptly, faithfully
and rightly for every cent received and
disbursed by him.
J. M. Curtis for police judge, is un
usually well qualified for the position to
which he. has been nominated. He will
continue to do his duty. Judicial in
tegrity is one of the qualities somewhat
rare among men. Pick from your own
recollection of past events some trans
action, endeavor fairly and impartially
to hold the scales even, while weighing
pros and cons, putting aside every prej
udice, and you will find how difficult it
is to get rid of preconceived notions in
the decision of what is right or wrong,
personal feelings have so much to do
with influencing the judgment. Judge
Curtis has the judicial mind.
J. H. Galley, candidate for member of
the school board, is without opposition.
He has for a long while been a member
of the board, is well versed as to every
phase of school work, and the patrons of
the schools may well congratulate them
selves on being able to secure his
services.
J. A. Ernst, candidate for council
from the First ward, is the well-known
resident of the ward, residing on Seventh
street where his father used to work in
the early days as a blacksmith. He is a
man who attends strictly to his own
affairs, and as councilman, will, as he
did when he formerly held the position
of councilman, attend to the business of
the ward and of the city in general, so
far as his individual vote and influence
may go, with fidelity and force.
C S. Easton, the candidate for coun
cilman, Second ward, the well-known
business man of Eleventh street in that
ward, is worthy every vote in the ward
without respect to party lines. He be
lieves in treating all men fairly and
squarely, and on the council would not
allow any preconceived notion of his,
personally, to weigh in his judgment
against duty and right. He is compre
hensive in his views of publio affairs,
and would work for the general interests
of the city, which always include the
particular interests of the Second ward.
Thomas Boyd, candidate for council
man from the Third ward, is a young
business man, who has the respect and
confidence of all who have dealings with
him. His experience in public life has
been along the right lines, and when he
shall enter upon the duties of the office,
the occasion will be but a step forward
in the line of public duty, illustrating
the same general principles which have
actuated him hitherto in his individual
affairs.
lards came down the river and at aaignsl
from Counter, Proproski started to raise
his gun and in so doing brought the
muzzle in front of Lis fees, when it went
off killing him instantly, the body pitch
ing forward upon the gun. Three men
from Shelby were in a blind a few rods
away who hastened to the scene and
assisted in getting the body to the shore
which was nearly a mile away, it taking
about three hours as tbeioe waa thin and
would not hold. They then placed the
body in a wagon and Counter started on
a lonely drive across the country with
the body of his dead friend, arriving
here at about eight o'clock. The deceas

a year, and leaves a wife and one child

Coroner Johnson came down Wednes
day morning but as the death occurred
in Merrick county he notified the coroner
of that county who ordered the body
taken back to the scene of the accident,
where an inquest was held Wednesday
afternoon. The verdict of the jury waa
to the effect that the deceased came to
his death from an accidental wound in
flicted by a gun in his own hands.
Undertaker Pearson then brought the
body to Genoa and from here it was
taken to Columbus for interment.

reproduced in The Jocbnal, where the

may be informed of the sad end of a

The body of the unfortunate man was

The evils of hazing, as practiced in
many of the so-called colleges and uni
versitieB of the land are, without doubt,
very serious, but the common sense of
the country ought to be equal to the
occasion. It is scarcely compatible
with the American's idea of a school of

John Hubsr, sn, who had been ailing
for many months, and who, at times, had
Buffered amaaingly, died of liver trouble,
at 7 o'clock Tuesday evening of last week.
He was born April 13, 1828, at Geneva,
New York. In his early manhood, be
removed to Warrington Junction, Vs.,
and at that place, where be was employed
during the War of the Rebellion as a
railroad engineer, he had some thrilling
and unusual experiences, consequent,
mostly, upon Mr. Huber'e custom of
telling out loud plainly his inner
thoughts, because he was a Union man.
From South Bend, Indiana, where he
was engaged in the livery business sev
eral years, he came to this city, we be
lieve in 1871, engaging in the same busi
ness here. He carried the U. S. mail
for a term of years between Columbus
and Albion, also to Norfolk; wss deputy
under Sheriff Spielman, and for about
twenty years was bailiff in the district
court. To a goodly portion of the gen
eral publio be was beat known, probably,
as an auctioneer. He waa prominent in
all matters concerning protection against
fire, was a charter member of Engine
oompany, and always an ardent worker
for the interests of the fire department.
He had joined the Odd Fellows at an
early date in life, and Wildey Lodge
held him in high esteem, the brethren,
in the beautiful and touching ritual of
their order, paying their mat tribute of
respect at the grave Friday afternoon.
Mrs. Huber died here about four years
ago. The children surviving are: Mis.
Emma Williams of Beloit, Wisconsin,
and John Huber, jr., of this city.
Services at the Methodist church were
conducted by Rev. Luce, in the presence
of members of Wildey Lodge, I. O. O. F.,
and of the City Fire department, besides
a huge number of friends and acquain
tances. Mr. Huber was a frank, sincere man,
and in the matter of charities, help to
the helpless, and the kindly offices that
always prove the native good-will of the
donor, his was the honest doing of the
deed, he did as he would be done by.
His kind heart responded readily to
every real call for help in distress. He
believed in doing his duty to the best of
his ability, and had done a share of good
work during his life time. Peace to his
memory.

Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God
to call from our ranks an honorary mem
ber in the person of John Huber, and in
view of the loss we have sustained by his
death, and in view of the still heavier
loss sustained by those who were nearest
and dearest to him, therefore be it
Resolved, That it is but a just tribute
to the memory of the departed to say
that we mourn for one who was in every
way worthy of our respect and regard.
Resolved, That we sincerely condole
with the family of the deceased, on this
visitation with which it has pleased
Divine Providence to afflict them, and
commend them for consolation to Him
who orders all things for the best and
whose chart isementa are meant in mercy.
Resolved, That this heartfelt testimo
nial of our sympathy and sorrow be for
warded to the family of our departed
