FOR Mayor, have decided to accept ths
petition OF Londrigsn and all the other
independent candidates. and they will be
allowed to run on official ballots. Il Is
within my power to throw all of these Pc
tlttons out. Every one Of tue petitions Is
faulty in some respects. But when Mr..
Stanton told me that be did not want TO
disfrancnise any onegon any tschnicaffty
and requested me to let them all run, 1
decided TO do sop
w. d. DAILY, the counsel to theSDemo-
cratic City Committee, who discovered
the flaws in the petitions, aud who on be-
half Of the Democratic Committee entered
piotests against them, has been requested
BY the committee to withdraw his objec-
tions, aud has done so.
A prominent member of the Democrats
committee said this morning:-ssAfter q
consultation Of all the leaders of the COM
mittee it was decided to give every
1 -
had them where we wanted them II we
desired TO insist on our protests, and our
entire ticket would have had no opposi-
tion at ALL But as each of the Inde-
pendent candidates had several followers
who would be disfrnnchised, we agreed TO
be liberal and let them all run. Our entire
ticket viii be elected"
Now that II is positively known that all
OF the lndeDeudent candidates are going
TO run, things will hum and the next two
weeks will be the liveliest that Hoboken
has seen in some time
IN the Mayoralty race Edward r. STAN
ton is still in the lead and will land q
winner. He is opposed by John f.
Tangemann and Patsey Londrigan
Tangemann was drawn into the race By
the Federal pap Of the Republican party
and the influence of John Reid, DIR. Kiel.
A. s. Baldwin and Billy Mahon. Be-
cause he is German It is figured that he
VIII capture the German vote. which is
quite a factor, but he viii not get the
German vote. Edward r. Stanton is re-
teiving the endorsement OF Germans all
through thc eisy, 40 they regard Mr.
The Republican vote that Tangamann
will poll win be microscope.
PatseY Londrigan's strength Is confined
entirely to one ward, the Third. He Is at
present an Alderman from that ward and
because he could not get a RECONCILIATION
he got in the race for Mayor
In the First Ward the lndependent cau-
didate for Councilman is Michael Byrnes.
The regular nominee is August BeBig.
Byrnes is a very popular man, and VIII
poll a surprising vote, but It is extremely
doubtfal IL he viii beat the regular
nominee.
In the Third ward will ne the hottest
fight of the city. This ward is the big
gest ward in the city. There are four
candidates for Councilman. Cornelius j.
TaheD is the popular Democratic nomi-
nee. John r. Havens. Sr., is the Repub-
hcau nominee, and there are Two Inde-
pendent candidates. School Trustee John
b. Acker and James Roarty. T2hen, it is
thought. will win handily.
Abe Sanford Is the regular Democratic
nominee for School Trustee and John
Gsehwinge has the Republican enaorse-
ment Sanford viii probably win by
small majority.
In the Fourth ward there are two can
didates for councilman William Fentou
has the regular Democratic nomindtion
aud Republican endorsement. Isaac
Ingleson is the independent candidate.
Fenton is a young man, An employe of
