Political Notes.

The greatest interest centres in the non
imation for assembly and all the candi-
dates are quietly at work.
The official calls for the Republican
conventions are in this weeks News. In
terest in the campaign will now begin in
earnest.
1t appears to be generally conceded that
Joseph G. Bower of Northampton, is to
be given the nomination for Sheriff on the
Republican ticket. There are two or
people are united on Bower. He deserves
the recognition he is about to receive.
1t is reported that county auditor Wor-
rell is to have opposition in the conven-
tien. The objection TO Mr. Worrell comes
from few officials who have not been al
lowed to collect bills as they pleased re-
CARELESS of law and justice. 1t is hardly
probable the county will retire good of
ficer simply because he has done his duty.
While other counties are struggling
with ia ctional fights, Burlington is free
| from all strife. Whether this state of af-
fairs will continue remains to be SEEN If
| jealousy, envy and desire to trample are
to dominate, if good men are to be relegat-
ed to the rear merely because they NAV be
in the way of somebody's ambition, then
the trouble will begin There is no need
for any such state of affairs in Burlington.
George F. Harbert, steward of the aims
house, will be renominated. For three
years he has been faithful to the interests
of the county, and there is much indig-
nation at the unjust attack just made up
on him for practice that has prevailed
for the last quarter of century. There
was also surprise at the lack of discretion
in casting the mean slurs. Mr.. Harbert
did not deserve such treatment, nor was
there any necessity for furnishing, in ad-
vance, ammunition for the enemy
There are various conjectures about the
result in the assembly convention, but it
is quite likely Messrs. Wright and Horner
will be returned. There is very little
reason for a change at this time Mr.
Wright has, by his faithful attention to
affairs at the capital, attained a position
that makes him valuable 1t is by re-
tanning members in service that other
counties have gained prominence while
those who frequently change go backward
rather than forward There is a general
desire on the part of the people to see both
of our representatives return to Tren ton.
After working for years for the Repub-
lican party and contributing much to its
success in that former Democratic strong
hold-Pemberton township-Isaac Rogers
was last week startled to see himself an
nounced by the "oldest Republican paper
in the county as willing to stand for
the stewardship of the almshouse on the
Democratic ticket" in addition to the
statement that he recognizes it as a good
berth in which the incumbent may. if he
cares to, entertain his friends and family
while the county pays the BILL" Ike
thinks it bad enough to be denounced as
Democrat, but to have the balance tack :
ed on was terrible. But SIGH is fame

Along Shore.

Bicycle thieves are working ipdustri-
ously at Lakewood. Three machines
were stolen last week
John w. Salmons, school teacher, at
West Greek, encounted bear in Hawkin
swamp one night last week Bruin went
one way and Salmons another.
The Ocean county assessors met at
Toms River on Tuesday. The assessed
valuation of the county was found to be
about half million dollars higher than
last year. The increase at Lakewood was
$3.50, 600
While Frank Ellsworth, of Lakewood,
was attending court at Toms River, on
Tuesday, he was arrested by Monmouth
county constable on charge of stealing a
gold ring and some money from man at
| Asbury Park He was taken to the Park
and locked up over night. The next
morning the missing articles were found
in pawn shop, and it was then learned
that Ellsworth was entirely innocent.
The Ocean county grand jury consid-
cred 90 complaints and returned % bills
OF indictment. This jury has the record
of handling the greatest number of COM
plants in the shortest time according to
the statement of Judge Martin. The
Grand Jurors introduced resolution call
ing the attention of the Court and the
Board of Freeholders to the lack of priv
acy of the Grand Jury room, owing to its
location, also to the fact that there were
not proper accommodations for witnesses
who were obliged to appear before that
body.
There is fight over the assembly nom
nation in Ocean caunty, between the
friends of Senator Shinn, who are sup
porting Mayor William r. Butler, of
Beach Haven, and the friends of ex-Sena-
tor George t. Cranmer, who are support
ing Assemblyman Holman for renomina-
ton. Ordinarily the assemblyman is ac-
corded a denomination. Holman is serv-
ing his first term. Ex-senator Cranmer
is making personal fight for Holman
For sheriff. Courtney G. Carr, of Mana
bawken; Moses L. johnson, of Dover;
James Moore, of Vanhiseville, and Charles
Lecompte, of Lakewood, are all in the
| fight Carr is in the lead, but the assem-
bly, fight has complicated the situation SO
that there are likely to be surprises. W.
G. Conrad, of Barnegat. father-in-law of
ex Senator Cranmer, a Holman adherent,
seems to have no opposition for county
collector, while Joseph Grover, of Toms
River, Butler man, seems to have no
opposition for the surrogate nomination

Hired Man Turns Horse Thief.

James Gallagher, farmer of Evesboro.
about week ago hired a man to work on
his farm. The man was stranger and
told Mr. Gallagher he had been working
for Elmer Kay at Ellisburg. He was a
nice looking young fellow and worked all
right. On Wednesday night Gallagher
and his new man took load of truck to
market, the former staying in the city to
Sc the trnck and the latter drove the
team back to Evesboro.
He put up the team and at once got out
