entire district. Even with all the lively
work the OH party men were alarmed
at the prospect of defeat which cepfront-
ed hem. and when the vote Was being
counted, showing lead for Wlnton. his
opponent left the field in disgust, satisfied
that he had been beaten. The vote Was:-
Tr.er, As; Winton, AZ.
Mr. Winton says:-"Had it not been for
the barefaca9 introduction OF voters from
the old Tenth ward and the status OF the
Meyer scavenger gang, Mr.. Trier would
have been showed under. The pull which
the Trier ticket had with the election

The Clinton Democratic urinary cleo
tions at Irvingtou last night developed q
strong fight for supremacy between the
factions OF the Democratic partv-the
Irvington Democratic Association and
the Independent Democrats, headed by
Calvin Van Cleve, the Peckwells, Frank
lin Kissam and John j. Farrow. The
Independents won. The Association put
up Walter e. Kimber, Sr.. for delegate
and Lloyd Mckee for alternate,
who were defeated by John j.
Farrow and William j. Fader, the
vote standing 106 to II. The Asso-
citation men are anything but satisfied
with the result, and claim that not only
was fraud resorted to to accomplish that
result, but that the whole election was il
legal. In appointing the judges of cleo
tion the County Committee ignored the
existence of the Association and selected
Henry Peckwe and William j. Fader.
As Fader was running on the independ-
enG ticket for alternate it is claimed that
he was incompetent to act as judge.

in this city. He took the 4:03 O'Clock train
for rHackettstown, where he is spending the
summer. He said to a NeqUs reporter that
he had no desire 10 antagoniZe Mr.. Smith
in Essex county" If wish to go to Tren-
ton as delegate need only to go to my
districts primary, but Mr.. Smith is en-
entitled to the Essex delegates" he said.
81 shall be at Trenton, however, at the
Trenton House, in room 6. 1t Is ridiculous
to see Mr.. Smith endeavor to pose as au
opponent of those who voted for the Read
ing consolidation scheme. Why, he
actually sent men up to Morris county to
oppose Cornish on the ground that he had
voted for the Reading bill He supported
Ford Smith, one of the Asse blymen who

success. He will not be more successful
at Trenton next week. He talks of Judge
Werus as candidate when the Judge has
positively refused to run. Moreover.
Judge Werts said in my hearing that if he
received the nomination he would de-
cline to accept it. That was no halfway
declaration"

friends say the election was quietly con

surprising ease. In fact it couldn't be

mand his credentials.
