Kelly and his father. John Kelly, extremely well. John H. was a great son of a great man. Probably few men have been privileged to wield such strong political Influence In both parties.

municipal judge The death of John H. Kelly comes as a shock and irreparable loss to his personal friends and to the city which has received so much from him. John Kelly was a great leader In his community, but he was also more than that; he was a warm friend. Throughout the city, state and nation are thousands who will mourn his death as a personal loss. Sioux City has lost a man whose biography Is virtually a history of the community.

Every worthy civic enterprise during the last three decades has received his enthusiastic help. Every project of concern to the people of his beloved middle west has been given his militant aggressive support both individually and through his newspaper. He was a fighter for the principles he believed, to be right and his campaigns for economic justice for the farmer were little short of crusades. Although John Kelly Is dead, the projects and enterprises which he fostered and developed will live on as a monument to his memory and a tribute to their sponsor. Vincent J.

Harrington, state senatorThe death of John H. Kelly, editor of the Tribune, came as a shock in political circles and marked the -passing of a true friend and neighbor.

Kelly, with whom they had worked for the betterment of Sioux City and territory, civil, business and political leaders of the city paid unstinted tribute to him in statements issued after they had received word of his passing. His loyalty to Sioux City, to his friends and his business associates, his untiring efforts in the interest of Sioux City and his fearless leadership as an editor and civic worker were cited In words of praise. Following are -tributes from many of Sioux City's prominent citizens who had worked Mr.

Kelly in various enterprises and had been associated with him intimately in business, civic or political matters for many years: W. D. Hayes, mayor of Sioux 3ty In the death of John H. Kelly the city of Sioux City has lost one of its outstanding citizens. During his lifetime he always was found at the head of all progressive movements which tended toward the betterment of conditions in the city, state and nation.

He possessed a wide and extensive acquaintance with the promi nent men of the nation and that en abled him to be of Incalculable bene fit in all questions affecting the wel fare of his community. He always responded to the call of civic neces sity and he belonged to that school of journalism that believes in a full and free expression of public opinion. The columns of his newspaper were open for the discussion of all publij questions and in this policy he carried out the past traditions of his father, the founder of the Tribune. In the history of the civic affairs of this city he certainty exerted a pronounced influence. His death coming at the height of his powers, is a civic calamity.

Howard V. Martin, department store executive I join as a personal friend with the community generally in expressing-tsorrow at the passing of John H. Kelly. His personality has been felt In most every matter of general public importance since he succeeded his father as editor of the Tribune. His espousal of a cause has always added dynamic force to that cause and he has been an active force in behalf of the town and territory in the presentation of the economic reforms he felt were needed to revive the importance of this agricultural area.

Any project Mr. Kelly undertook had his wholesouled and aggressive support, so it was a natural sequence that the community accorded him leadership In so many affairs of public moment. His untimely death is a personal shock and brings sorrow not only to his family but to the whole community. Frank B. Davidson, department store executive.

It Is very difficult to give for publication a tribute to a man whose loss I feel so keenly from a personal standpoint. John Kelly was my very dear friend. To say that I shall miss him acutely, grievously, is beside the point. Sioux City will miss him as it has not missed a half dozen men since the city was founded. The nation Itself will miss him and the new president of the United States will miss him.

John- Kelly possessed Sioux City's most brilliant mind and the warmest personality of any xnanI ever have known. He was utterly fearless mentally and physically. His death leaves a void in our community which cannot be filled by any other, man. R. W.

Tackaberry, general secretary of the Chamber of Commerce-It will take days, and weeks for us to fully realize how great has been our loss today. Scarcely a citizen of Sioux City or of the trade territory but knew of the powerful Influence of John H. Kelly In local, state and national affairs. He was most willing to give the time necessary for the good of his fellow citizens and the needs of the middle west. Always the master of a situation, he inspired and led; his personality was such that he could command a most favorable hearing even under most unfavorable circumstances.

His passing Is an irreparable loss. Fred P. Johannsen, commander of Monahan post. American Legion The loss of John H. Kelly will be felt very keenly by the ex-service men of Sioux City and the state of Iowa.

As a member of the national executive committee of the American Legion he was instrumental in obtaining much favorable legislation for ex-service men of the world war. He had much to do with the policies of this great organization, both nationally and locally. The members of Monahan post and the. ex-service men of this community will miss his guiding influence, for he was loved and respected by them all. Gordon Hollar, chief of police In the death of John H.

Kelly. Sioux City has suffered an irreparable loss. Always In the forefront In ail matters concerning civic betterment, he was constantly striving to effect Improvements in his city and state. We remember him best in the service he gave to his country as an officer fled advertising department Later he became a reporter, then city editor, then managing editor, and upon the death of his father was well equipped to succeed him as editor.
