TICKET CHEERED
Rousing Meeting by the
Eighth Ward Democrats
When a Parker Ban
ner Was Raised.


Happy Home Hall. Monticello and
Harrison avenue, was packed to suffoca-
ton last night during mass meeting
held under the auspices of the Eighth
Ward Democratic Club. The Club swung
a magnificent Democratic banner to the
breeze in front of its headquarters early
in the evening 1t bears the portraits of
the Democratic National candidates and
the county ticket and the name of Thos.
f. Rooney, candidate for Street and Wat
ef Commissioners The raising of the BAN
ner was accompanied by fireworks and
music
At the indoor meeting speeches were
made by Congressman Allan Benny, John
Milton, Alex Hamill, j. A. Warren, JOS
eph TumiIty, Thomas f. Rooney and OF
to Wittpen. Congressman Benny who is
seeking reelection as Congressman was
given a rousing reception similar to that
he received at the Peoples Palace meet
ing. Considering the fact that he was
on both occasions in the home of his OPP
ponent, Marshall Van Winkle, in the
strongest Republican Ward in the county,
things look promising for Mr.. Benny. As
on the former occasion he attacked Mr..
Van Winkle on his recent appeal at the
Bergen Republican Club for votes on the
ground that unless Republican is elect
ed, there is no chance to secure a new
post Office building, Mr.. Benny declared
that the Republican Congress at its last
session ran up other expenditures to such
rate that no appropriations for Govern
ment buildings We're made for any part
of the country, but said that matters were
in such shape that Jersey City will get a
new post-office and sthat its foundation
will beslaid before Mr. Van Winkle could
be sworn in as a member of Congress.
Mr.. Benny and all the other speakers
discussed the equal taxation measure and
each mention of the name of Charles G.
Black was received with loud and con
tinued cheering.
Thomas F. Rooney, candidate fol-
Street and Water Commissioner and OF.
to Wittpen, as candidate for County Su-
pervisor, were both given oyations.
The meeting was intensely enthusias-
tic.

W0MEN'S LEAGUE
MEETS TODAY.
Assemblyman Fielder and
Henry G. 0ondict to
Speak on Equal Taxa
ton at Odd Fellows
AGGRESSIVE CAMPAIGN PLANNED
Association Is Pledged to
Forward the Election of
Charles @. Black AS
Governor.

The Women's Equal Taxation League
means business in its own way and is
destined to play a very Important part
in the present political campaign. This
afternoon the club is holding meeting
in Odd Fellows, Hall, Bergen and Fair
mount avenues and listening to the adj
dresses, by Assemblyman James Fielder,
Henry G. Condict and others well versed
on the subject of equal taxation. The
League was organized to assist Charles
G. Black, the Democratic candidate for
Governor, who is the recognized cham
pion of equal taxation. 1t has quite a
large membership, which includes Mrs.
Althea A. Bedle, widow of former Gov
ernor Bedle, Mrs. Werts, wife of former
Governor George T. Werts, Mrs. Nc
Dermott, wife of Congressman Allan L.
McDermott, and Mrs Black, wife of the
Democratic candidate for Governor,
Those at the head of the movement are
well versed on the subject of equal tax
alton, but it is their intention to familiar
ize themselves with every detail and to
enlist the interest and services. of other
women in the cause. They will meet
from time to time at one another's homes
to perfect plans for an aggressive CAM
paign and will hold number of public
meetings under the clubs auspices.
Candidate Black is indeed fortunate in
having such valuable allies and the fact
that such women as compose the member
ship of the club have taken up the cause
and are working so enthusiastically for
its accomplishment shows that it is a just
one and that they believe that Mr..
Blacks experience as head of the State
Board of Taxation for SO many years
eminently qualities him to bring it about.
They believe in his sincerity and are shy
of evasive Republican promises.
They feel that the present system of
taxation affects their homes and the
homes of the great masses of the people,
and though they cannot vote, they have
made up their minds TO overthrow the
| system, and bring about laws THAT will
tax all property owners alike and not
burden the people for the benefit of the
wealthy CORPORATIONS. In Charles G.
Blacks candidacy for Governor on such
| a PLATFORM they see an opportunity to
assist in a great political movement.
Most of them are neighbors of Mr. Black.
| They know that Mr.. Black is sincere and
| it is their confidence in him that caused
them to organize club to assist IN his
/ candidacy.
| The officers of the League:-Mrs. AL
| thea r. Besile, president; Mrs, Willard G
| Fisk, Mrs Allan L. McDermott, Mrs
Henry NJ. Traphagen, Mrs. James Flem-
ming, vicepresideuts; Mrs. Albert l.
Drayton. secretary; Mrs. William r
Barrieklo, treasurer. They are busily
engaged in working out plan whereby
they may increase Mr.. Blacks vote next
| month.

LICENSE FOR nAr1o1A1 HOTEL.
Police Court Case Nolle~ Pressed and
Application fol-, injunction
withdrawn.

The controversy between Col. O. G. Sta
PIES, proprietor of the National Hotel, and
the District officials. relative to the grant
ing of licenses to Col. Staples for hotel
and for a bar room in the hosiery, has
been amicably settled and all legal proceed
iEgs thus far begun have been discontinued
The District excise board, at its session this
morning, upon reconsideration Of the case
of the application of the National Hotel for
a bar room license decided to issue liquor
license to the hotel and the permit was
taken cut by Col Staples before noon to-
day.
The injunction proceedings against the
District Commissioners instituted by Col.
Staples Wednesday night have been dis
missed and the case against Col. Staples
before the Police Court, in which he was
charged with conducting hotel without
license. has been nolle pressed
AS stated in yesterdays Star, an agree
ment was reached between Col. Staples and
the District Off clals yesterday whereby the
National would be legally licensed as no.
tel. Late yesterday afternoon Col. Staples
filed with the District building Inspector a
statement that the requirements of that
official with respect to the electrical wiring
III the hotel would be complied with and the
building inspector issued certificate stat
ing that when the electricity had been cut
off from the hotel he would have no OBJ
lection to the granting of a license for the
hosiery.
Before nightfall Col. Staples had all out
side electrical connections cut out and also
dismantled the dynamo in the hotel, and
license for the hotel was then granted to
him by the District assessor. A temporary
permit was also granted Col. Staples last
night by Assessor Darneille, chairman of
the excise board, allowing the proprietor to
open up the bar in the hotel. AS previous
ly stated, the excise board this morning is
sued license to the hotel for bar room
Stipulation Agreed To.
According to the stipulation filed by Col
Staples with the building inspector the
hotel will be lighted only by gas until such
time as the electrical wiring has been put
in a condition satisfactory to the District
authorities.
The red emergency and fre-escape guide
lights in the hotel building, which hereto
fore have been Illuminated by electricity
have been changed to gas burners with red
globes, and one difficulty which was
ticipated in the cutting off of the electrical
supply has been overcome. Col. Staples
stated to the District officials that he will
proceed at once to make the necessary re-
pairs in the electrical wiring in the hotel
and it is expected that the building will be
lighted by electricity within a reasonable
length of TINA.
