WINNING IN THE NINTH
Major Bedle's Splendid
Chance = Republicans
Utterly Demoralized.


The true state of affairs existing in the
ranks of the Republican party in the
Ninth ward was clearly shown at a
ratber warm neetir,r of the Bergen Re-
| publican club held last evening. Apathy
there is and lots of it. This was said in
open meeting.
| Mr. William r. Harrison. a dyed in the
| wool machine worker, said that the Re-
publicans do not want to be laboring
under the impression that they hayeT a
| walkover.
| In my precinct l did not see one Re
| publican about today taking any interest
| IN the registration" ne said, while there
| were many Democrats about doing
actlve work. This apathetlc feellng wont
do. we nave to work.

Mr.. Graham said:-"Gentleme and fell
low Republicans. it ill-becomes a mem
ber of the State Committee to make such
report. Mr. Landrine did not take an
active part in the fall election"
Mr. Landrine said:--.It is all very well
for YOU to talk of doing good to the
party. There is some doubt about that,
for YOU know that a member of the State
Committee who is not a member of the
County Committee. cuts no figure. If
your committeeman do their work rela-
tive to the registry lists as well as we
did ours last fail. there will be no trouble
| am perfectly willing to have others do
the work | have done. I am now con-

be well to add that these disputes and
pettv controversies which arise when ad-
vice is offered do the party or club no
eood Tf Won talked less and did more
work Won wonld he better off,

AS Freslueht Shdrfes mason, OF the ciub,
STATED during the meeting last evening,
the Democrats We're never In better
position to achleve successful results than
at present. lie said two very strong
Democratic clubs had been organized and
the work done by the members would
prove detrimental to the Republican party |
unless immediate action was taken to Off
set it. This result will never be obtained. !
