NINTH DISTRICT.
'Timken, DAILY and schinzel Will Be
the Winners in Hoboken.

Politics is the all absorbing topic in the
Ninth district In Hoboken. Aside from
the excitement of the election of Sheriff,
the people in this district viii have to
elect an Assemblyman and Freebooter,
and from Indications the contest for these
two offices will be an exceedingly bitter
one. The district comprises the First,
Second and Third wards of the city. In
Presidential election it has always
given Democratic majority of about
| 1000, but at county election party lines.
| as a rule, 90 for naught and the person
atty of the candidate is generally con-
sidered.
In the Second ward of this district Ex-
| Mayor Herman l.. Thinker, the Jeffers o.

name OF McPhillips on il is put before

ticket will be invariably voted. Thus

TIMKES's FRIENDS HUsTLINe.

| In the Third ward Thinker Will not get a

strong. A prominent Democrat said to
me the other day, IF Timken gets out
| in this fight and makes a canvass he will
carry the Ninth district, and mark we'll
| what am telling you" Thus the Ninth
| district will probably be lost to Bob
| Davis aud his protege, Johnny McPnil-
lips. This will. indeed, be severe blow.

cratic candidate for the Assembly and
will win although it IS said that yester-
| day a deal was effected between some al

was to be knitted for the purpose Of elect

| Notwithstanding this treacnery it is
| thought that DAILY will win. His oppon-
