Two terms In that once; stephen D. stephens,
Jr., young man OF considerable ability, who
was elected last year and pleased MS con-
stituency, and Richard Christopher
well known resident OF staten Island.
The 6ght for the nomination will however,
rest between MT. Decker and Mr.. Stephens.
Tne latter promises his friends that II nominated
and elected ne can DO more Tor the county tnan
last year; II being his nrst Nme and not being
thoroughly posted he did not know AZ much about
the workings OF the institution 80 ne now
does. MI. Decker's friends are confident Of ms
nomination. several meetings Wero hello lass
