WHAT THEY SAY.

The nomination of Daniel S. Voorhees,
for the County Clerkship has brought
forth the following encomiums from the
members of the Morris County Bar:
The Hon. Alfred Mills telegraphs the
CHRONICLE from Washington: Daniel
S. Voorhees, has made good deputy and
will make good clerk. / hope he will
be elected.
Theodore Little-"The nomination of
Daniel S. Voorhees, l think is the best
that could have been made. The office
under his management is in excellent
condition and doubt if there is another
in the State that is in as good shape.
His election will be credit to the
County"
Philander B. Pierson-Dan is stickler
for order and is very methodical. Judg-
ing by his work as deputy think he will
make model Clerk. The Office is today
one of the best in New Jersey.
John Callahan-The nomination of
Daniel S. voorhees, suits me. He is just
the man for the Office. Morris has the
best equipped and managed County
Clerks Office in New Jersey, and it is
largely owing to his efforts that it is SO.
John E. Fennell-l think that every
Republican and Democratic member of
the bar should vote for Daniel S. Voor-
bees, as an untried man in an Office of
that kind would be an experiment that
no one interested in the Office would care
to try.
Guy Minton-"The party which pro-
vides the best official for the discharge of
public offices is the party best answering
the demands of the people and in the
long run receives the popular support.
Daniel S. Voorhees, is the only man in
the County who could personally dis
charge all the duties incumbent up.

R. B. Moriarity-"The nomination of
Mr.. Voorhees, is most admirable from
whatever standpoint it is regarded"

suitable man that could be named for
the clerkship. He is affable, thoroughly
understands the requirements of the

Proprietor Cooney's Unusual Procedure to

Quite a spirited discussion took place
at the meeting of the Excise Board We'd

the Rev. DIR. Batten This gentleman
was present to take advantage of Edward
F. Cooney's failnre to sign his applica-
ton and to make affidavit with reference
to a renewal of license at No. Al Speed
well avenue The applicant was repre-
scented by Thomas O'Brien, who asked
that Mr.. Cooney be allowed to make aft
davit and sign the application. Dr. Batten
contended that the city ordinance pro-
gided that the signature of the applicant
was necessary during specified time
before the matter could be considered
Mr.. O'Brien made it clear that this not
only was unnecessary but was not pro-
vided in city ordinances. City Counsel
Muir was asked for an opinion and he
cites parallel case in which Chief JUS
tice Magic had decided that an applicant
could fulfil requirements in question on
day application was made. On motion
of Mr.. McCullum the applicant was per-
mitted to sign his name and make Aft
davit and by unanimous vote renewal
of license was granted.
Petitions were presented and read
from residents calling attention to Pat.

Sunday selling was carried on, and dis
orderly persons were harbored, making
the place nuisance, and asking that
the license should be forfeited in this
as in case of Harry R. Piper, who it was
claimed sold to minors and in quantities
other than that prescribed by law A
resolution introduced and carried will
compel the two saloon-keepers to show
cause why their license should not be re-
voked or fine be imposed.
When the application of Robert J.
Wilson came up for consideration Of re-
newal of license at place located No. "a

place upon several occasions in quanti
ties other than the law allows Mr..
Batten said lie could secure additional
evidence if the Board desired to act in
the matter. Mr.. Fox said the charge
should be investigated and asked the
applicant what he had to say. The lat
ter denied having violated the law in
any instance and renewal was granted
without dissenting vote.
Licenses were also granted to William
Smart for wholesale trade at the corner
of Elm and Morris streets and for resi-
dent wholesale place to be conducted on
EzaaIer street BY Charles Bontempo.

thanks were expressed to those who had
performed this, sometimes tiresome,
duty SO faithfully. The president
then spoke Of the universal
kindness and generosity which
the committee had met with in all de-
partments of the work, and said that al
though the need for the present was
over,l the Morristown Auxiliary would
always be ready to do its share in
