MAYOR PAGAN FREQUENTLY REBuFFED
His Efforts to Hurt Stanton in Hoboke
Not Very Successful.

His Efforts to Hurt Stanton in Hoboken
Not Very Successful.
Mayor Pagan of Hoboken is not meet
ing with Inc success he would like in his
opposition to Sheriff Stanton. He is
making a personal canvass. but has met
with considerably more rebuffs than he
anticipated. Will q every one has the
highest respect for Police Co mmissiouer
Patrick Smith. yet Jnsy begin TO see that
his opposition TO Stanton is a wee biz
personal also, aud the result is that peo-
pie think before they decide to heed the
advice of either Pagan or Smith. One
prominent citlzen, talKinR of the matter
last night, said:-'Fagan is decidedly
wrong this time. If he thinks his frieuds
are going to fight SJsntou because the
two have personal feelings, Que against
the other, he Is mistaken. Faxan wants
to down Stanton. and he is willing To
wreck the De macratic party in the county
to 10 SO. What Pagan should have done
was to have made his fight at the prim-
aries. There he houiu have fought
Stanton and what he calls the ring. II
ne did this aud sent TO the convention a
goodly numbe of delegates opposed to
Stanton, the convention might have
nominated another man. But Pagan
didn't do this. he let his own delegates
even vote for Stanton, aud then he turns
around aud bolts the ticket. crying ring,
etc. This plainly proves he is making the
hight for personal reasons only, aud care,
very little for party"

POLISH CITIZENS FOR STANTON.

An Enthusiastic 5ieeting Addressed by
sheriff Stanton and Oscar Kreis.
Sheriff E. R. Stanton received a
rousing greeting last night at No. 361
Grove street, where nearly three hundred
Polish and Hebrew citizens were gath
cred.
Mr.. Stanton was introduced, and re-
ferred to the record he had made in the
Sherif's office during the past. He said
that his enemies were crediting him with
acts for which he was not responsible.
The affairs of the Sheriff's office had been
SO conducted that LAWYERS, independent
of party, had declared their approval. If
reelected, he will discharge his duties as
faithfully in the future as he has done in
the past.
At the close of the Sheritf's address,
Mr.. Oscar Kreig, Assembly candidate for
the district. entered the room and was
warmly received.
Mr.. Kreig thanked the meeting for its
welcome, and declared his intention of
looking after the peoples interest, if
elected, i'll the Legislature. Mr.. Kreig's
words were loudly %applauded, and a
resolution was carried supporting Messrs.
Stanton and Kreig, and. indeed, the
entire Democratic ticket.
Although informal and hastily con-
vened, the meeting was remarkably
enthusiastic.
Mr.. FERRY" J.. Mcdonald spoke, and
commended the candidates for Sheriff and
Assembly.
Nh. Kreig's opponent in the Fifth
District is not named.
