Sporting Notes.

The Florence Burlington base ball team
came to Mount Holly on Saturday with a
firm idea that it would be an easy task to
defeat Mount Holly. 1t was not new
idea" with Florence, but it was one that
had been removed more than once and 1t
was again dispelled on Saturday. Rubart
was the pitcher for the visitors and he did
good work. Randall was in the box for
Mount Holly and he put the balls over
the plate with so much precision that the
Florence hitters could not do any effect
i've work. There were no disputes over
the decisions of the umpire. Conner, an
American League official. was the man to
decide all points and he did it all right.
The game was interesting from the start.
Up to the ninth neither side scored. In
Mount Holly's half, Loveland got to Sec
ond base The next man at the bat hit
one to center field. Loveland Immediately
started for home and the ball was thrown
in. The runner, the ball and the umpire
were all at the plate about the same time
Florence's catcher made jump for Love
land. but he failed to touch him and the
umpire decided him safe. The score wal
one to nothing, with one man out, anC
the game was over
Then began the usual arguments among
the crowd about the 'robber umpire,
declarations that the runner was out, ant
all that sort of hot air that usually follows
but it came from those who were not in
position to see the play, and who wer
hackers of the defeated team. The um
pire, experienced and without favor fo
any one, was right on the spot, and say
the play.

Surrogate Convention.

The greatest interest in the political
contest was manifested at the convention
in Bordentown, to nominate candidate
for Surrogate. At half past ten O'Clock,
Harry L. Knight, member of the county
committee from Medford township, raped
for order, and Walter E. Borden, of North
Hanover, was nominated as temporary
chairman.
Mr.. Borden thanked the convention for
the honor. With the idea that the time
belongs to the convention and not to the
chairman, he declined making speech
and called for nominations for secretary,
Fred w. Branin, of Medford, and Joseph
l.. Thomas, of Riverton, were selected.
The chairman announced the following
committees:
CredenttdEs-Robert Gotham, Florence; ]. G.
r. Rogers, Lumberton; Winfield 5. Gale
NOrtham pton.
Permanent Organizotion.-Tho H. Marter
Chester; William K. Harvey, Beverly city

Haines, Mount Laurel
| Resolutions DIR. A. IL. Paterson, Mansfield
DR.. Elmer ID. Prickett, Northampton; Edgar
| Il. Allen, Pemberton.
Before calling the roll chairman Border
made himself the most popular man in
the convention by announcing that he
wanted the chairman of each delegation
as he answered roll call to get the dinne
tickets for his delegates. Mr.. Borden ex
planned that this was his own contribution
and was not in any way to be construed a
an attempt to influence any one present
The chairman was given rising vot
of thanks for his kindness in looking afte
the interests of the delegates.
The committees reported, The temper
ry..officers were continued, there were n
contests, and no change in the rules.

In the first district of Northampton
township the men who wanted to run as
Colby delegates followed the regular
course and circulated petitions to be placed
on the ticket. IL the second and third dis
tricts there was apparently not going to
be contest, but an attempt was made to
get votes under false colors and Colby
delegates were put up. Where the fight
was open the delegates got an average of
"a votes. Where the sneak trick was
used the average vote was: Second dis
trict, 10; third district, "a.
There seems to be disposition on the
part of some to make capital out of the
action of the Republican convention in re-
fusing the Colbyites the privilege of put
ting in the platform a resolution to suit
themselves. There is no occasion for any
feeling on this score. The convention was
governed by the rule of majority, the
same as other organizations are, and leav
ing that point out of the argument it is
not easy to see where the Colby people
were entitled to any special privileges.
Their entire object has been to do some
thing that will interfere with the Republi
can party They refused to accede to
many of the things proposed at the meet
ing; they refused to allow the nomination
of Samuel K. Robbins to be made unani-
nous, thus avowing themselves against
the resolution pledging support to the
ticket and it is n0w given out that the
man who they supported for Senator is
going to run on an independent ticket for
the purpose of defeating the regular nom
inee. If any one can show where these
disturbers were entitled to any special
consideration in the convention of Satur-
day we would like to have them do it.
One of the meanest campaign tricks
ever played wasthat of the Colby followers
in this township. Republican tickets
were secured and pastors put on but the
words Choice for Senator, Samuel K.
Robbins" were not crossed off. For
tunately the trick did not amount to any
thing, unless it was to act as a boomerang.
One of the men whose name appear ed
under this false flag was approached by a
voter who told him he was glad to see he
was a Robbins man. The fellow squirmed
and said he was for Wildes. He was then
plainly told that he was either for Robbins
or was liar. Instead of coming oat like
a man and acknowledging trick he evad-
ed the matter by saying that he was not
responsible for the situation, he did not
arrange the tickets. There may have
been political tricks played before but
none so dirty as this, which was all the
more noticeable because it was the work
of Performers, men who had beenlpreach
ing reform and purity in politics. AT one
of the meetings it will be remembered
George Wildes told how nauseating some
of the practices of the Republican party
were and how he wanted to forget many
of them. This one prepetrated in his be-
half would be a good one to efface from
memory. If any of the Republican
leaders had given aid to such despicable
act there would have been extra new
idea" meetings at which the trick would
have furnished the entire text.

weeks later the body of dog was wash ed
ashore at Palmyra, and although the
collar which had usually adorned Leo's
neck was missing, still there was no doubt
that the body was that of the prize bull
dog. Suit was at once instituted against
young resident of Riverton, and inter
est was great as to the result, but it was
all washed out by the announcement of
the settlement. The terms were not made
public, but rumor has it that the owner of
Leo received $1,000, counsel fees and
court expenses.

Rnard of Taxation.

The Burlington County Board of Taxa
ton finished the compilation of the tax
duplicates on Friday and fixed the tax
rate for the ensuing year. In every town
ship in the county there has been de-
crease in the rate, with the exception of
Northampton. Here, despite the fact that
valuations were increased nearly half
million of dollars, the rate will be the
same as last year. This is due to the fact
that the township committee were 100
liberal in their recommendations for ap-
preparations, which were advanced too
heavily. The county tax rate this year is
70 cents against $100 last year, and the
state school tax is 10 cents, being II cents
last year. Following is table giving the
rates for this year in comparison with
those of last year:
