GREAT NIGHT FOR VARUS
It was the greatest night the Varea ever
had,
They said so themselves at a Jubilation
party held In the office of the Director of
Public Safety, where State Senator Kdwln
II. Vare and his brother. Congressman Wil
liam S. Vare, and twoscore of their follow
era received the election returns
I'very one who Is prominent In the Vare
camp "dropped In" to remain for at least
a few moments during the late.jilght and
early morning hours, and to congratulate
the newly elected and le-elected county
oftloers They partook of n buffet lunch
and even had the pleasuie of meeting
Mayor Smith, who Joined them with his
family and the families of Senator and
Congressman Vare, W Freeland Kendrlck
and Recorder of Deeds Hazlett, for a short
time.
It was also a night of worry for the
Vares nnd their followers. The Vare
marching clubs. Including thb Sheehan
marchers from the Twelfth Ward, were
ready to inarch as early as 8 o'clock, but
the early returns were dlsconrertlne to the
Organization. They Indicated a Town
Meeting party sweep, and the marchers
were told to wait.
Tho VareH, with the county office candi
dates on the Republican ticket, and many
of the Vare ward leaders, assembled In the
eftlce of Director Wilson early
SIIUnilAN'S NEW- SILK HAT
When the returns from South Phlladel.
phla and most of the central section of th
city came In they ordered the parade to
start, James B. Sheehan donned the new
high silk hat he purchased In a burst of
confidence & week agu, and led his follow
ers up and down Broad street and down
Chestnut. The Vare clubs were closed be
hind, and Congressman John R. K. Scott's
ward club was not far behind.
The red lights they carried completely
dimmed the march of the Carey followers
from the Fifth Ward, the antl-Mackey
parade from the Forty-sixth, and the other
" Town Meeting ward organizations that had
gallantly marched through the crowded
streets earlier
Shortly after midnight the police returns
gave the Republican ticket a majority of
approximately 26,000.
Congressman, Vare then Issued the fol
lowing statement:
"The victory represents a vindication
bf the Itepubllcun party and la complete
evidence that the. honest and upright voters
p Philadelphia cannot be deceived by a
campaign of abuse and vilification and
slanderous falsehoods. The good name of
Philadelphia throughout the country has
Wen redeemed "
Director Wilson's only comment was,
Ttni return speak, for themselves "
The Vare majority, as returns con-
fioUMt to eae In, climbed to 30.QOO and
