for the last few days. and indications point to
sweeping Republican victories In Rutherford and
East Rutherford next Tuesday. The Democratic
tickle, I'm Rutherford none too strong at the best,
was weakened by the absolute refusal OF Rudolf
Dannhem the candidate for Mayor, to run. Mr..
Dannhem is a man OF much personal popularity;
while for his successor OH the ticket william r.
Sturm not much be said, except tha' he can
make a partisan Democratic speech. The biunder
of nominating a candidate for collector was seen
by certain respectable Democrats who were unable
to prevent the action OF the primary. Collector
burrows has been placed on the Republican ticket
and will probably run ahead of his remarkable vote
a year ago. The Republican tickets In Rutheriord
and East Rutherford fortunate in being headed
by o. such standing as Edward j. turner
and Mayor William Mckenzie. The average OF
ability of the candidates on both tickets IL I'M
