Hurrah for Uncle Danny" Hur-
rah for Tom Hillery! Hurrah for
Charlie Baker, Three cheers for the
Republican party! Didn't Dan run
though The latest count gives him
over 3, 100 plurality, Hillery 1900 and
Baker 1900. Old Morris once more
puts itself once more ON record as
sound in Republican principles and did
it with glorious majorities.
A more propitious day for Repub-
lican success could not have been
asked for than on Tuesday. The sky
was clear, the air invigorating, and
temperature moderate. Such weather
conditions are generally sure signs of a
Republican victory.
There was not a large vote out,
however, but the returns showed that
the Republicans, at least, came to the
polls. AS an "of" year the results
are gratifying. At no time during
the day was there any apprehension of
Democratic success. In all four
wards in this city the workers kept
busy, and prevented confusion.
There was apparently no backbiting
or billingsgate.
Mr.. Wise, the defeated candidate
for County Clerk, walked about
quietly, gave away cigar now and
then, and in nervous excitmente ate
peanuts. Mr.. Voorhees,, the success

thirty-seven and the Democrats
twenty-three.
The three Democratic candidates
for Assembly elected in Union county
are Joseph f. Hague, Charles l..
Moffett and Joseph III. Gum. Their
election was the outcome of a faction
al fight among the Republicans in
Union county.
In Cape May county the Repub-
licans elected a Senator by about 500
plurity. An Assemblyman was
elected by about 800. In Gloucester
county the fight was made by the
Loudenslager Republicans and Demo
Gratis to defeat the Republican AS
sembly nominee, but he won by a
majority of nearly 500.
In Trenton most interesting
fight over the mayor took place.
Mayor Frank S. Katzenbach, the
Democratic nominee, was elected.
He was repudiated by the party
organ, the True American.
In Middlesex the Republicans won
the fight, by electing three Assembly
men.
In Sussex the results were sur
prlsing and deplorable. DR.. j. Cole
Price, the Democratic candidate for
Senator, received over 100 majority,
while Lewis S. Tiff received 900
majority for Assembly.

Whether it was the "Old Boy" that
got possession of the boys last Satur-
day night or the "Old Nick" it was
some unknown power which did it's
best to cause lots of disturbance in the
old town. Such was expected how
ever, as Hallowe 'en has come to be
celebrated in old-fashioned style. All
kinds of faces are put on, and every
known costume in the country and in
foreign climes, are worn. 1t was hard
to tell if the boy was the girl or the
colored servant, or the servant the
man of the house. Arm in arm they
paraded the streets until late hour,
and tick-tacked the windows of houses
in their neighborhood.
The police didn't care. In fact they
only wished they could cast off their
blue uniforms with brass buttons for
an hour or two and join in with the
merrymakers.
Only one accident happened which
many way marred the pleasures Of the
night. Down on Elm street where
Lem Hing conducts little laundry
several naughty boys had been plan
ming the greater part of the evening
how they could have some fun with
Lem. They would run into his quar-
ters and halloo ''ching, ching, China
man," etc., but Lem rather enjoyed
this, although he would let fly a
stream of water from his mouth once
in while which he held to dampen
clothes. This mild sport did not
please the boys enough and so they
got into real mischief. A large tin
can was gotten and filled with stones.
While Lem was ironing shirt, the
bad boys let the can fly at the window.
Crash went the glass, and large
stone and several pieces of glass hit
poor Lem, cutting his head. Seeing
they had hurt the Chinaman the boys
ran for home. For few minutes the
laundryman was beside himself. He
forgot about his hot iron and this he
threw on several unlaundered shirts,
while he painted number Of ironed
collars and shirts a scarlet red from
the blood which dripped from his
wounds.
Lem bandaged the cuts, but he
cried, so it is said, when the thought
of doing the "washy" all over again
this week.

GOLF CLUB MEMBERS NETTLED
to New York Papers. Last 6 Fake''
Made From Whole Cloth.


A "fake" appeared in the New York
Press on Tuesday morning from it's
Morristown correspondent. 1t read;
With live stag for game, pack
of sixty hounds and field of 100 horse
men, the hunt, which will take place
tomorrow election day. from the
Golf Club here, bids fair to be one Of
the biggest events of the kind ever
given in America"
When this story was taken to the
Golf Club to be authenticated it was
pronounced untrue. At the home of
Mr.. Benjamin Nicoll, who had charge
of the hunt, it was stated that there
was no intention of hunting with a
stag The fabrication not only an
noyed the Golf Club members and
the huntsmen, but created indignation
among the State Game Commissioners
Commissioners and wardens. When
Commissioner Mcclellan learned of the
report, he at once communicated with
Warden Jones, of Madison, and also
telephoned to the Golf Club that it
was against the law to hunt stag,
and any attempt would be dealt with
accordingly. AS the Golf Association
had no Intention of turning loose a

1t is fifteen years since few women
met one afternoon in a parlor and or
ganized the Morristown Branch of the
NeedlewOrk Guild of America. The
object of this guild is the collecting
and distributing once year new cloth
ing to those in want and to hospitals
and other charitable organizations.
This work, small at first, has quietly
and steadily increased, and can show a
grand total of over $4,000 new gar

those who needed them.

Burlington county goes Republican
by about 5000. Somerset county
elects, Democratic Assemblyman by
over $50 majority, also Warren county
gives Democratic majority of 700.
Hunterdon county gives it's usual
Democratic majorities. 1t elects a
Senator and Assemblyman.
The Republicans of Essex county
did their duty. They elect their
Assembly ticket by nearly $4,000, and
carry Newark by over 1850.
At night several members of the
Republican County Committee met in
the Republican Club rooms in the
Chronicle building and received the
returns by telephone. When it was
certain the ticket had been elected,
the Morris Plains Band was sent for
and the musicians came down in
stages. They played several tunes,
which stirred the sleepy citizens who
were standing around and comforted
the sorrowful Democrats.
An effort was made at compari-
lively early hour to find the temple of
Democracy, but it could not be found.
Now and then an old warhorse was
seen on the streets and he would tell
how gloriously the Democrats won in
New York, but Morris ounty-well,
he was afraid-yes, it knew it, but
he didn't think the Republicans
would win so nicely.
