tice of the law at Greenfield. In 1870 he was unanimously nominated as the democratic candidate for congress, but not elected. He again resumed the law practice in Green- field, where he has resided for more than thirty-six years.
CLEM. STUDEBAKER.
He was born in Adams county, Pa., on the twelfth day of March, 1831. His father, John Studebaker, was a wagon maker, and built the first Studebager wagon known to the world. At the age of four years Clement came with the family to Ashland county, Ohio. At the age of twelve he was going to school and devoting all of his spare mo- ments in earning his board. At fourteen he engaged himself to a farmer at two dollars per month and board. Tiring at this, he returned to his father's roof and began learn- ing his father's trade, and at the age of twenty, with a few dollars in his pocket, he came west and stopped at South Bend with only two dol- lars as his worldly capital. Failing to get employment at once, he en- gaged in school teaching on Pal- mer's prairie. To keep ahead of his
pupils he had to devote much of his night time to study. In his teach- ing he gave good satisfaction, and made many life-long friends. In February, 1852, he formed a part- nership with his elder brother, Henry, under the firm name of H. & C. Studebaker, with a capital of sixty-eight dollars. This was the beginning of the great house of Studebaker Bros. Manufacturing Company, which is at this day the largest of its kind in the world. In 1869, the joint stock company as it now exists was formed, and Clem. Studebaker was made its president, which position he now fills.
Mr. Studebaker has filled many positions of trust and responsibility in the county and municipal gov- ernments to the general satisfaction of all.
JOHN M. STUDEBAKER.
John Mohler Studebaker, the third son of John Studebaker, was born in Adams county, Pa., October tenth, 1833. His inheritance con- sisted in a good constitution, a happy mental nature, and habits of probity, industry and economy, which, combined, form the best capital a young man can possess. At the age of twelve he began bus- iness on his own account by taking
a contract to clear a swamp for the sum of twenty-six dollars, clearing at this ninety cents per day, which in those days was considered large wages. He soon after cleared thirty dollars by working a sugar camp, which earned him the name of the " boy contractor." In 1851, he came with the family to South Bend, and in the spring of 1852, he engaged himself to a German wagon maker,

but which was one year after brok- en. At this time the California fever was at its height, and John, now in his eighteenth year, resolved to seek his fortune in the gold fields. He traded the first wagon he ever made for passage to the Pacific slope, which wagon was the first Studebaker wagon ever seen in Cal- ifornia. At the end of the trip this wagon was the best one in the whole train and readily sold for three hundred dollars in gold. Ar- riving in Placerville, he at once procured employment with Mr. H. L. Hines, (now an honored member of the Studebaker Brothers Manu- facturing Company,) and com- menced making wheelbarrows at twelve dollars apiece. In 1858, he returned to South Bend and pur- chased the interest of his brother Henry, (who retired to a farm near South Bend,) thereby becoming an equal partner with Clem, under the firm name of C. & J. M. Studebaker. His arduous labors in his business
affected his health, and threatened him with a serious decline, so much so that he spent fifteen months in Europe with his wife, visiting Eng- land, France, Germany, Italy, Switz- erland, and Ireland. He returned fully recuperated, and in a physical condition to successfully meet all the stern vicissitudes of an active business life. Mr. Studebaker pos- sesses great mental and physical endurance. His moral sentiments are well poised and his religious nature active. He is a consistent member of the Presbyterian church, and an active worker for, and a free giver to all works of true charity and benevolence. As a citizen he stands high, taking a lively interest in all public improvements and reforms. In social life he is pre- eminent; his friends are many, and foes are few or none. Mr. J. M. Studebaker, in point of age, stands second in the firm, and fills the position of vice-president of the company.
PETER E. STUDEBAKER.
The subject of this sketch, Peter Evans Studebaker, was born in Ashland county, Ohio, April first, 1836. He is the fourth of the five sons of John Studebaker, and the only one who was not bred a wagon maker. In boyhood Peter mani- fested a strong ambition to become a successful business man, and soon developed marked abilities in that direction. At an early age he en- gaged with a brother-in-law, who was a merchant, with whom he stayed two years, when he started west, arriving in South Bend with a five frank piece in his pocket as his sole moneyed capital. The day
after his arrival, he engaged as a dry-goods clerk, which he retained for three years, with a constant in- crease in his salary. With a capi- tal of one hundred and fifty dollars, as the savings of his three years salary, he began business on his own account. Mounting a ped- dling wagon, he struck out into the country, in search of his fortune. Although meeting with many diffi- culties and rebuffs incident to his avocation, he managed to add to his small beginning, the handsome sum of seven hundred dollars. At the age of twenty-one he married, discontinued his itinerancy, and in

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES.
April, 1856, opened a retail store at Goshen, Indiana. This he carried on with varied successes until 1860, when he engaged in selling wagons for his brothers, C. & M. In this he was eminently successful. He removed from Goshen to South Bend in 1863, and in the year fol- lowing, at the age of twenty-eight, he became an equal partner with his brothers, C. & J. M., the new firm organizing under the name of Studebaker Brothers. Leaving im- mediately for the west, he settled at St. Joseph, Mo., that being the great outfitting point for California, Oregon, Montana, Santa Fe, and the
entire west. He soon commanded a large trade in the sale of their wagons for the plains, and the Studebaker wagon was favorably known throughout the whole west to the Pacific coast. He remained in St. Joseph until 1871, when he returned to South Bend, where he is now settled for life.
Peter E. Studebaker possesses rare financial ability, strict integrity, indomitable will, and great endu- rance. He is the treasurer of the concern, which position he fills with credit alike to himself and the company.
JACOB F. STUDEBAKER.
Jacob Franklin Studebaker, the fifth son of the family, and the junior member of the Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company, was born in Ashland county, Ohio, May twenty-sixth, 1844, and is con- sequently now in his thirty first year. At the age of eight, young Jacob followed with the family train to South Bend, but afterwards returned to Tiffin, Ohio, where he learned the trade of wagon and car- riage making with Peter Van Ness. Returning to St. Joseph county, he

No man in the west, perhaps, has a better knowledge of the wants and needs of the people in his specialty, and very few persons have better taste and judgement in all matters relating to the manufacture of fine carriage work.

CHAPTER LXXIX.
THE NEWSPAPER PRESS OF INDIANA.
T HE PRESS of Indiana has had a growth full equal to the development of her material resources. Nor can we easily estimate the extent to which the general prosperity of the State is indebted to the efforts and influences of the local newspaper. At the present time there are published within the State twenty-five dailies, two tri-weekly, three semi-weekly, two hundred and twenty-three weekly, sixteen monthly and two quarterly publications. Some of these have gained a national reputation. Prominent among these are the India- napolis Daily Sentinel and the Indianapolis Daily Journal. Both of these papers have become national institutions, and exert a powerful influence in the Union for the respective political organizations which they support. The latter is a Republican and the former a Democratic journal, yet both are liberal and independent in the discussion of great questions, and seem to manifest more zeal for the material prosperity of the State of Indiana than to promote mere partisan ends. The Sentinel is under the editorial management of Mr. John Fish- back, with Mr. Joseph O'Connor as the practical managing editor. Mr. Fishback is also President of the Sentinel com- pany and the principal stockholder in the corporation. The Journal is under the editorial management of Mr. John D. Nichols, with Mr. Charles M. Walker as political editor. Mr. Nicholas Ruckle is President of the Journal company.
Following is a list of the newspapers published in Indiana, with their size, circulation, location, and the names of their publishers: *
* Compiled from Geo. P. Rowell & Co.'s Newspaper Directory for 1874. The same cir culation is here used, but it is safe to increase these estimates twenty-five per cent. for the circulation in 1875.
