The straightforward conservative business-like administration of the affairs of the West Town, as rendered by Mr. Dwyer, was. so highly approved by the press, and the public in general that. Mayor Washburn induced him to accept a position in his cabinet as superintendent of the Water office, which position he filled with credit to himself and the mayor that appointed him.
In 1894 Mr. Dwyer was nominated for State Senator from the Seventeenth Senatorial district, which is admittedly a Demo- cratic stronghold, the Democratic nominee being one of the most popular and influential Democrats on the entire West Side. Notwithstanding all these disadvantages, the friends of Mr. Dwyer rallied to his assistance, and elected him State Senator with a very handsome majority over his opponent.
Being possessed of more than ordinary intelligence, besides- being thoroughly conversant with the many defects in our statute laws, especially that which applied to governing large cities, it will beremembered it did not take Mr. Dwyer long to master the situation, and soon his ability was recognized to such an extent that during the last two years of his administration he became the recognized leader of the State Senate.
Many of the best laws and reforms which appear on our
191
statute books today owe their existence to Senator Edward J. Dwyer, among which may be mentioned the Civil Service law, the Torren's Land Act, the new Revenue law, and the Special Assess- ment law.
Mr. Dwyer was a member of the Republican County Cen- tral Committee for four years, during which time he served as secretary of that body for two years.
Mr. Dwyer has long been recognized as a leader in Republican politics of the West Side, and so faithfully has he performed the duties that devolved upon him, that he has been called into what is known as the confidential inner circle of the party for advice regarding the situation, and the advice of Mr. Dwyer in such matters has always been regarded as being sound, and in the best interest of the Republican party.
Mr. Dwyer was married in 1894 to Miss Mollie V. Lawler, daughter of Joseph Lawler, and niece of the late Hon. Frank Lawler. One boy has blessed the union, and brightens the new home of Mr. and Mrs. Dwyer, which is at 1658 Jackson Boulevard.

HON. JOSEPH. C. BRADEN.
1
THE UNTIRING WORKER OF THE SANITARY DISTRICT BOARD OF CHICAGO.
Hon. Joseph C. Braden is one of the most faithful and untir- ing workers connected with the Sanitary District Board of Chicago.
Mr. Braden was born at Joliet, Illinois, some forty-one years ago, his parents being old respected residents of that city.
Mr. Joseph Braden, the subject of this sketch, received his early education in the public schools of his native town, and after leaving school at the age of nineteen years, began his business career as an insurance writer. He soon built up a large business, and at one time was accorded the credit of writing about one- third of all the insurance premiums carried in that town. Mr. Braden came to Chicago in 1882, and continued in the insurance business ever since, having been most of that time associated with the firm which he is to-day connected with. He enjoys a large patronage among the very best commercial circles of this community, all of whom regard him as a very honorable and straight forward business man.
Mr. Braden who has always been a Republican, first became prominent in political circles during the fall campaign of 1895, when he was elected Secretary of the Republican County Executive Committee. He did such excellent work in this con- nection that he made a very favorable impression on the powers that usually control conventions in Cook County, consequently Mr. Braden was rewarded with the nomination and election as Sanitary Trustee of Chicago in 1896, which position he has ever since filled with credit to himself, and the general satisfaction of the public. Although a very busy man with his insurance and other business interests, Mr. Braden has never missed a meet- ing of the committees of the Sanitary Board, whether a member of said committee or not.
193
He has at all times opposed extravagance and his vigilance in this direction while a member of the Sanitary District Board of Chicago, has saved the taxpayers thousands of dollars.
Mr. Joseph C. Braden has a very extensive acquaintance throughout this city, among whom he enjoys an excellent reputa- tion, both from a business and political standpoint. His success in life has been entirely due to his own efforts, along the path- way of perseverance and energy. He is very domestic in his tastes, a devoted husband and spends his happiest hours by his own fireside.
Mr. Braden is eulogized by his extensive acquaintance who regard him as a splendid type of American citizen. But little doubt is entertained by his many friends but what his name, which is in itself a tower of strength, will again appear upon the official ballot to succeed himself next November.
In the history of Chicago, a more important elective body never legislated in the interest of this community than the Board of Sanitary Trustees of Chicago. For years and years, this city was infested with the foul stifle of stagnated water of the Chicago river, the water of Lake Michigan was polluted with refuse and sewerage overflow, and in fact relief seemed almost hopeless. The present splendid Board of Sanitary Trustees, of which Mr. Braden is a much valued member, done much toward accomplishing the desired relief in this direction for the people of Chicago. Under the present splendid Board of Sanitary Trus- tees the work was prosecuted with such dispatch, that contractors were compelled to work day and night. When contracts were let, a clause containing a time limit for completion was inserted, and the work which was watched very closely by Mr. Braden and the other members of the board was completed January 2, 1900. For generations to come this great American waterway known as the Sanitary District of Chicago, which now flows with a rapid and clear current from Chicago to the gulf, will serve as a living monument to Sanitary Trustee Joseph C. Braden, and his other associates on that important board.

ALEXANDER H. REVELL.
A SELF-MADE MAN OF WHOM CHICAGO MAY WELL BE PROUD.
Alexander H. Revell, the subject of this sketch, is one of the best known merchants not alone in Chicago but throughout the entire West.
Mr. Revell was born in Chicago in 1858. His father David James Revell, came to the United States from Ireland in the early '40s, and was engaged in the grocery business in a rather successful scale up to the great fire of 1871.
This often told disastrous fire destroyed the earnings and accumulation of a life time of not alone Mr. David James Revell, but of almost hundreds of thousands of others.
David James Revell died soon after the big fire of 1871, and his son Alexander H. Revell who was then at a very tender age, was thrown upon his own resources to provide for himself and contribute to the support of the remainder of the family.
From the humble position of clerk in a furniture store at $8 per week, Mr. Revell climbed the ladder of life until he is
195
-
today at the head of the immense furniture house known as Alexander H. Revell & Co., located at Wabash avenue and Adams street.
Alexander H. Revell's ambition did not even rest here at the head of this great commercial institution. He has frequently lent his aid to the building up of the great Republican party not alone in this city but of the state and nation, being prompted by no selfish motives in doing so.
Mr. Revell is a Republican of the pure political school. He is a thinker, a reader and a student of civic affairs. He has repeatedly devoted his time and talents in the interest of good national and municipal government during campaigns.
Mr. Revell served one term as president of the Union League, which is considered the foremost club of this city. He has traveled extensively, having set foot in every quarter of the globe. He is an athlete, a member of the Chicago Athletic Club, an excellent boxer and a good swimmer. His varied tastes include a love for military affairs, and he carried a rifle in Com- pany D, First Regiment, I. N. G. He was formerly president of the Marquette Club. During the World's Fair his position as director and chairman of the committee on publicity and promo- tion identified him closely with the success of that undertaking.
Mr. Revell is a member of the Lafayette Memorial Com- mission. He is also a member of the board of trustees of the Northwestern University and is prominently identified with many Chicago organizations.
