nation. 1t was conceded that 1t was
rather early to make selection LOT

conclusion was reached. The Shrievaity

thority, is an open one.
The list of candidates for city and coun-

AS to the Hoboken nominations, Adolph
Laundering is slated to succeed Mayor
Pagan.
Mayor Egbert Seymour of Bayonne is
slated for denomination.
The twelfth member of the House of
Assembly, to which Hudson county, un-
der the new apportonment, is entitled, it
was definitely settled, will go to North
Hudson, making two Assemblymen from
that section. Who will be Assemblyman
Lutzs colleague will be known Friday
night, when the Executive Committee
will hold a meeting and make the selec-
ton. Ex-Freeholder Emil Groth was
mentioned as possible candidate, but
the man who was regarded as the most
available nominee was ex-Freeholder
Frederick Rippe Among his supporters
Hills Democracy.
Adolph Lankering, who is slated as the
Mayoralty nominee for Hoboken, was in
excellent humor and said that the situa-
tion in Hoboken was all that could be de-
sired. The talked of fusion between dis
gruntled Democrats and Republicans did
not phaze him in the least, and his friends
agreed with him that no matter what ac-
ton was taken by his opponents the
Democratic ticket would be successful
Some said that Fagan would run on a
fusion ticket. Others thought that Coun-
Gilman Frommell, Republican straight,
will be the man Mr.. Lankering will have
to beat.
Regarding Bayonne, indications are
that Mayor Seymour will have no prac-
tical opposition even to reelection. OF
course the Republicans will nominate
candidate; but, as the Bayonne Demo-
crat'' says, this will be a mere matter of
form.
Alexander c. Young appeared upon the
grounds in the afternoon and actively
pursued his candidacy for temporary
chairman of the State Convention. This
appointment is at the hands of the State
Committee, and it was said that Mr..
Young had the promises of several OF the
members. Chairman Gourley said he did
not know whom the committee would ap-
point. The name of DR.. John D. McGi1l
was heard in connection with the same
honor and many expressed the opinion
that he would make an ideal presiding
officer. 1t was not known, however, that
the Doctor had consented to the use of
his name in connection with the appoint
ment DR.. McGill is a warm advocate of
Seymour's nomination, and this fact leads
many to believe that he would not de-
cline the invitation if rendered him.
