DEMOCRATS IN UNION HILL
Big Meeting Held In That Town
Saturday Night.

A demonstrative gathering assembled in
Union Hill Saturday night when the
Democracy of that town flung IT'S Bryan
and Stevenson banner to the breeze. The
occasion was gala one, marked with the
booming Of cannon, the display of red fire
and sky rockets in abundance. A parade,
consisting of the First Ward Democratic
Club and the Reinhardt Association of
West Hoboken, the Union Hill Democratic
Club, and various other associations of
the town, comprising in all five hundred
men at whose head was a brass band,
preceded by a line of mounted officers,
formed at the corner of Bergenline ave-
nue. and Franklin street and marched
through the principal thoroughfares. Ar
riving at the starting point the paraders
were dismissed by Mayor Zeler. Fully
five thousand people were assembled when
Chairman Charles Singer from the stand,
prettily decorated with American flags and
draped with red white and blue bunting,
declared the meeting opened.
After touching briefly upon the issues OF
the campaign, he introduced the first
speaker young Mr. O'Brien, who made
the speech of the evening. Mr.. OBrien
eloquently attacked the policy of the pres
ent ADMINISTRATOR ana then lduHcHeu
forth into a powerful arraignment of the
trusts and their methods. His arguments
went straight to the mark and were de-
cIdedly interesting. IHe was interrupted
with frequent applause and at the end of
his speech was greeted with loud and
prolonged cheering.
Mr.. Standish was the next speaker and
by his witty remarks he caught his audi
ence from the start. His arguments on
Imperialism were very convincing and well
received by the crowd
Mr.. Standish was succeeded by the Hon.
Leon Albeit, who produced additional
facts about imperialism, following with a
discussion of State affairs in which he was
well versed. Mr. 0farnell. ex-Assembly
man from Hoboken, was then introduced
and he made a strong plea to all present
''to help save the Republic and to forever
keep out of power the embryo emperors
at Washington
The other speakers, Messrs. Herley,
Loterie and Mcpherson, further enlight-
ened the assemblage as to its duty on
election day, and as the last speaker con-
cluded the band struck up '.The Star
Spangled Banner and the crowd dispersed
duly impressed with what it had heard.

Sir Tomn,y,s Pine.

To a close personal friend in the New
York Yacht Club. who has been in Lon
don and Ireland during the past summer.
Sir Thomas Upton told good story on
himself-he never falters when the game
or the luck is against him. or when the
story is on him, says the New York
Commercial"
Recently" said Sir Thomas. '.I stepped
into a smoking compartment on Gale
donian train, and was followed a minute
later by an elderly woman who carried a
small and rather obtrusiye dog.

me, snatched the pipe from my lips and

ed Over the Action of the

The residents of the Lafayette section
are disappointed over the result Of the
meeting of the Board of Finance a few
days ago, at which the school question

Finance Commissioners makes them lose
all hope of placing their children In the
schools for at least another term

the three Lafayette Schools under his SUI
pervision, asked the Board OF Finance,
through the Board of Education, for 5000

would accommodate $50 pupils II rooms
were divided off and seats provided. Di-

drop fusion.

1t will be seen that Mr.. Ca.chings
