were adopted.
Ex-President William Berger, of the
Twelfth ward branch of the association,
against whom also charges Of disloyalty
to the party were preferred by Otto y.
Dahl, the defeated Republican TWelftn
ward candidate for Alderman, said he was
glad to be reminded that he was not the
only pebble on the beach-that he had
lots of company. He referred to the fact
that Dahl was beaten by 683 votes.
He said the charge had been preferred
against five of the McEwan men and the
latter were still being ousted while the
howl was going forth for reorganization.
Mr.. Berger alluded to the celebrated 262
Republican majority in Hoboken, and said
1t could partially be explained by the fact
that Clement De G. R. Leonard and
Charles Guisto, both machine men, had
been appointed by Mayor Pagan as Tax
Commissioners at $1,000 apiece year. He

M0UNSEY SUPPORTED
McEwanites Declare They
Will Fight the
Ring.

The terrible drubbing which the Repub-
lican machine got in the recent election
has had the effect of stirring up the CEN
trail organization of the Thomas MeEwan
Association. Its meeting last night, at
which the annual election of officers was
held was one of the largest and most
enthusiastic since the standard bearer
withdrew from the Mayoralty race. The
associations principal fight has been for
a change in the leadership and general
reorganization of the party. Now that
bowling for reorganization the McEwan-
ties think they are entitled to the most
say in the matter.
The election of officers last night re-
suited as follows:-Gamaliel Christie, of
West Hoboken (re-elected; r. H. Men
now, President re-elected); Counsel
lor H. J. Morris, Second ice-President; j;
G. A. Pfingsten, Third Vice-President;
Charles R. Wall, Fourth Vice President;
Jonn Dipple, of West New York, Fifth
President; ex-Freeholder Abe Wilson.
Sixth Vice-President; Frank Piercy, Sew
enth. President; A. Raymond, of Ho-
boken, Eighth Vice-President. Four more
Presidents are to be elected at the
next meeting. Secretary Zachou declined
to serve another year as Recording Secre-
tary, and F. A. Sofield was elected in his
stead. r. C. Gaddis was elected Corre-
spending Secretary; George Allen, Finan-
cial Secretary; James Coghill, Treasurer,
and w. o. Jennings, Sergeant-at-ArIns
President Mason of the Bergen Republi-
can Club was present as a guest and he
was called on for remarks. He expressed
the hope that all differences between Re-
publican factions will be healed. He said
he felt sure that the County Committee
looked at the matter in the same light.
Great changes he said were contemplated.
| If success was expected harmony must
prevail. The ones who worked about the
polls should have most to say concern
ing changes. The Republicans of the
Ninth ward would not stand for dis
loyalty.
County Committeeman Mounsey, who
halls from the Seventh precinct of the
Ninth ward, and against whom charges
of disloyalty have been preferred, was
also presented and made speech. He
said the disloyalty consisted In piling ur
sixty-three majority for Voorhees,.
| Tom Mailley interrupted the speaker
| with the remark lit is because you
| voted for our standard bearer for chair

The Veterans OF Camp Stephen D..
Lee desire to express their hearty ap-
probation OF the handsome cOntribu-
ton made by you for the fund for the
Reunion in Charleston.
During the long trying months OF the
war, and especially us those months
heightened into weary years, it was the
brave, cheerful. tireless help OF the
mothers OF our Southland that inspired
our armies to endure with fOrtitude the
many hardships we cencountered. When
the war was over it was tile women
who taught us first to resume Ourdutles
with chcerfulness. Many OF our COM
radcs had fallen, and lay in neglected,
unmarked graves, while We were
almost too broken to do them honor,
but you and your mothers took up the
loving task. and while too poor to raise
monuments, decorated their graves
with spring flowers and tears. Soon,
with returning prosperity, aye, even
before it returned, you began to raise
monuments to those heroes of a Lost
Cause, and in your hearts we are as
sured that the sacrifices OF the C0nfed-
crate soldier will be cherished and
remembered, and that to future gene
rations you will transmit that nndylng
principle of liberty for which we
fought, and the sentiment and romance
OF the Old South, which we esteem
more precious than the triumph OF those
who fought lis.
