ORDERS FOR BALLOTS
County Clerk Stack vii
Receive None After
Today.

After today County Clerk Maurice
Stack will receive no further orders for
official balfUts from candidates or others
interested in their distribution before
election. Tomorrow the work of printing
the over 100000 ballots that will be used
at the coming election will be begun and
it is expected that by Thursday of this
week, perhaps Wednesday, but certainly
not later than Friday, those who have or
dered ballots for advance distribution will
be able to obtain them.
Already the work of preparing copy
for the six different tickets that will be
handed voters when they enter their re-
spectiye polling places next Tuesday has
been begun by Deputy County Clerk Ed
ward w. Gritten and Chief Clerk Daniel
Haggerty of County Clerk Stacks staff.
In all there will be over fifty changes on
these ballots AS both of the leading
parties have fall tickets in the different
wards of the three cities of the county a
different ticket will be required in each
ward.
The combination of city, county and
State elections for the first time, this
fall, it was thought, would make the bal
lot of unwieldy proportions on account Of
the number of candidates to be voted for
in the three cities Of the county. The
County Clerk has decided, however, that
all the names can be included on a
ticket 2s4xS inches and all the ballots, in
including those of the municipalities out
side of the cities where there are no local
elections will be of that size
The ballots that will be handed to vot-
ers on election day are those of the
Democratic, Republican, Socialist, Social
ist-Labor. Prohibition and Citizens Inde-
pendent Union parties. The last ticket,
outside of Hoboken, will bear only the
name of Franklin Murphy for Governor.
Hoboken it will have in addition the
names of the yerdonite candidates.
The shortest ticket in the matter of
printing will be that of the Citizens In
dependent Union. The largest will be
that in use in the Fourth Ward of the
city of Hoboken. which will contain the
names of twenty-nine candidates and fif-
teen titles of offices. In the Fifth Ward
OF Hoboken, where no candidate for con-
stable has been named, there is one less
title, but thirty names on the ticket. The
Jersey city ballots will contain twenty
five names and eleven titles Of offices to
be voted.
The ballots to be printed will have
changes for the twelve wards Of Jersey
City for both the Democratic and Re-
publican parties, for the Ave wards OF
Hoboken, I'VE wards of Bayonne. and
there win be one ballot for each party in
all the municipalities outside of the. cities
of the county.
Instead of procuring the ofieial ballots
from the printer this year all persons
Interested in their advance distribution
must obtain them from the County Clerk.

tion to the Water Department has been
most creditable.
Colonel Smith came here in 1862 He en-
tered the employ of the Cunard Steam
ship Company at that time, and by faith
fully performing his duties in most
thorough and efficient manner he has
risen to the position Of Assistant super
intendent of the New York docks He
occupies position of trust which he
earned only by service of a most loyal
nature.
In 1877 he entered the Fourth Regiment,
National Guard. His. popularity won for
him many friends and as a reward for
his services he was selected Colonel OF
the regiment in 1885, He is held in high
esteem by the officers and men in the
regiment. He was selected by the Cover
nor as Colonel OF the volunteer regiment
organized during the war of 1888 with
Spain. He remained with the regiment
several months until he felt sure that
the regiment would not be sent to the
front.
In the spring of 1898 he ran for the po-
sition of Street and Water Commissioners
against John H. weastell, beating him by
3,7l0 votes. The Colonel is a member OF
the Carteret Club. Robert Davis Associa-
tion, Masonic Order, Knights of Pythias,
Elks and Colonel of the Davis Pioneers.
He is the man for the place and his ma
jority this election will undoubtedly be
equal to that he received in 1898

Many Republicans Say That Mr..

ItJVs significant that during this cam
paign many Republicans, men Of the
highest character and standing in this
city, have openly declared that they will
not vote their local straight ticket, but
cast a Democratic ballot Being business
men they argue that man who is to be
at the head Of the city government ought
to be business man possessed of a head
and experience, and to fill that require
ment Mr.. George T. Smith is the man
for Mayor
Especially is this the case in the Sew

Republican strongholds. In these wards
there is a large number of men whose
business is in New York. They only
come home to Jersey City to sleep, as it
were, and perhaps once in month come
down town. They therefore look at the
present election purely from business
standpoint and everywhere one hears the
conclusion:
George T. Smith is the man for Mayor.
He is a business man with head and
experience, while his opponent would
have to be years in office to acquire even
some bare understanding about the busi-

JAMES 7. LILLIS.

Few candidates for election are 80
thoroughly acquainted with the duties OF
the office to which they aspire as IS
James T. Lillis, the Democratic candi-
date for Surrogate of Hudson county
Since 1873. a period of twenty-eight years
Mi. Li.lis has been connected with the
Surrogate's office in one capacity or an
other. What he does not know bout tho
intricate affairs of this department Or the
county,s records is not worth knowing.
He began his career in the office as re-
cording clerk under Surrogate Robert Nc
Cague. Jr When Mr.. McCague's term
expired in 1880, William McAvoy became
Surrogate and James H. o'Neil deputy
surrogate. Mr. Lillie's abilities were
recognized and he was advanced to the
position of Chief Clerk under the deputy
surrogate. Surrogate McAyoy died in
1885 and Deputy Surrogate o'Neil was
made Surrogate. Mr.. Lillis was then
raised to the position of Deputy Surro-
gate. which he held till 1886, when he was
elected Surrogate, defeating his opponent
bv majority of 100 votes. The result
of the election was firm proof OF MT.
Iillis's popularity, as he and the late
Sheriff Heller were the only two Demo-
Gratis elected in the county at that time
Since he has been In office Mr.. Liilis
has done much to improve the system
of conducting the work Of the depart
ment. The business has increased com
siderably in the past few years, so much
80 that larger quarters have been neces-
earv. Prior to 1883 the Surrogate's de-
partment occupied cramped quarters in
the old Court House building. When the
present Hall of Records was built 1t was
moved into that building, but the rooms
set apart for it were too small and II
was not until 1898 that the present quar-
ters were secured Even these have be-
come too small. The vaults at present
are overcrowded and it will not be long
before they will have to be enlarged or
new quarters secured.
Mr.. Lilliss careful training in the duties
of his office has enabled him to build up
the department to it's present admirable
condition. He has both experience and
Integrity and ne has performed his duties
with credit to himself and to his county.
His modest and unassuming manner has
made many friends for him while he has
been in Office and his strict attention to
duty has been appreciated by everybody
with whom he has come into official con-
tact.
Mr.. Lillis was born in this county and
he has lived here all his life. He was
graduated from Rutgers College.
