in the case of the New Jersey State Den-

pointed to Investigate the general sub

cety. That was held during the past
summer at Asbury Park, and the commits
tee made its report, in which it stated
that one of the oompany's products
should be given preference above all oth-
ers. The company, never having been
accused Of being slow, lost no time in
securing i. copy of the report and spread
ing it broadcast over~the country. II was
an excellent advertisement and was pros
ducing good fruit when the society OBJ
tained from Vice Chancellor Reed rule
to show cause why the company should
not be restrained from publishing the re-
port further on the ground that It IS
contrary to the practice and ethics OF
the society to officially recommend or
approve any proprietary article in use by

SEVENTIES REPUBLICANS
Every Man Wants Every Nom
ination and Confusion
Reigns Supreme.

The Republicans in Greenville have
been thrown into state of chaos during
the past few days, and scarcely one of
them can tell you just where they are at.
Probably no other ward in the city has
produced so many aspirants for office,
and surely no other section of the city
has such lot of changeable men.
President William Reed of the Z. S.
Grant Association is responsible for the
biggest party of the disorder in his party 8
ranks. Since last summer he has twice
been out hustling for the Freeholder
nomination and twice for that of Boule-
yard Commissioner. His latest 1op oc-
CURED on Thursday night, when he
changed his claim from Freeholder to
Boulevard Commissioner. When Reed
first came out for the Freeholder nomi-
nation, the Minkakwa and League Re-
publican Clubs proceeded to shape things
accordingly. Both clubs put an aspirant
in the field for the nomination of Boule-
ward Commissioner Later Reed thought
that he would like to look after the in
terests of cyclists and he announced that
the Boulevard Commissionership was
what he wanted. His club approved of
this move.
Each Republican club had man in the
field at that time, and it simply went to
show just how harmonious were the Re-
publicans in Greenville. Shortly after
ward, Reed topped again, and he return
ed to his former position as claimant for
the Freeholder nomination. Last week
President Charles Merker, of the Minkak-
wa Club, magnanimously gave up his
claim ON the Boulevard Commissioner
nomination. and Edmund Birch, the
League man. was left alone in the field,
that is, in Celeryyille But not for long,
however, as Mr.. Reed again last week
declared that he thought he stood as
much chance for the Boulevard end of
the deal as Birch, and once more he
announced that he would make a hustle
for that particular nomination. Such is
the state of affairs in the Seventh ward.
Now that Reed, who was looked upon
as the next Republican Freeholder can
didate from that ward, has relinquished
his claim on that nomination. it is not
known who will make a play for it, The
Minkakwa Club will meet this evening,
but what action will be taken no one
knows, not even the members. Some say
that that club will put man in the
| field for Freeholder, and others say that
the League people will do likewise at
their next meeting
An amusing thing is the fact that
neither of the clubs appears to approve
OF the others action and that general
good feeling is entirely absent.
