HONoRs FOR nR. BIBLE.

The Democrats of Ionia, Mich,
have nominated Mr.. John F. Bible
for Mayor and his election is as
sured by the failure of the Republi-
cans to put out a candidate against
him. The Ionia Sentinel explains
this by stating edltorIally that the
feeling among Republican business
men that Mr.. Bible should be elect
ed without opposition was so strong
that the convention decided to defer
to this plain wish of the voters.
Both parties made up full tickets
except for the Office of mayor which
the Republicans conceded TO Mr..
Bible without a contest. He ac-
copied the nomination.
Mr.. Bible, as is we'll known, is a
'son-in-law of hopklnsville, hav-
ing married Miss Mary Bell, of this
city, a daughter Of Mr.. John H F.,
Bell. His election as mayor will
probably be but stepping stone to
the highest Office in his State, as
the Democrats are more than likely
to make him their candidate for
Governor at the ensuing State
election.
