Has No Desire to be Joined to
Hoboken,

Weehawken people seem unit in their
opposition to the scheme to annex their
thriving town to Hoboken.
Assessor O'Donnell said when asking
for his views regarding the proposed an
nexation said:-'I know the people of
Weehawken do not desire that
our town should be annexed to
Hoboken. We can derive no
benefits from such an action and the ad-
vantage would all be to Hoboken. They
tried the same scheme eighteen years ago
but when it was left to vote Of the peo-
pie all the voteIs of Weehawken declared
against it.
Councilman Ressner said, 81 am op-
posed to such an annexation, and l am
not afraid to have my sentiments known.
1 believe it is our valuable
water front they're after. Ho-
boken may want Weehawken
but Weehawken does not want Hoboken. i"
Recorder Ryer said:-"I am opposed to
any such action. do not see how we
can gain anything and 1 do not believe
either city would approve annexation" !"

Mr.. Ewald to be a faithful Republican

business career built up an enviable rep
utation for honesty and business integ-
rity. He was firm in his beliefs but kind
in his actions.
When the rebellion began he organized
Il company which he drilled on Bergen
avenue until he went as it's captain to
the front. His bravery in the
war was recognized, and he was
colonel when it ended.
He served several terms as member of
the Board of Freeholders. and also held
the Office of Justice of the Peace. The
house he died in had been his home more
than fifty years, and it has been, during
that time, a familiar landmark on
Bergen avenue.
Mr.. Speer was married to his first wife,
Jane Thorpe. on July IL, 1885, and they
had four children all of whom are living
The son is William H. Speer,

JUDGE KNAPP'S LAST CHARGE.
Gross Misrepresentation as to Its WOrds
and Purport.

Gross Misrepresentation as to Its Words
and Purport.
Some people have issued circular. in
which they have misrepresented the dy-
ing words of Judge Knapp. The circular
insinuates that the Judge died denounc-
ing the Grand Jury for its failure
to find indictments against the Gutten-
burg race track people; it is well-known
truth that this is not so. Judge Knapp,
in that charge. did not mention the
Guttenburg track at all, but his entire
remarks were against Siegfried Cron-
helm, the notorious dive keeper of Ho-
boken.
Many members of the Bar of this
county denounce bitterly the action of
these men in trying to make capital for
their schemes out of the dying remarks
of the beloved jurist.
