BY request OF the Legislative Com
rnittee OF the Board Of Freeholders As
sembIyman Mills has introduced bill
which provides that the charges and
expenses incurred by the municipal
clerks (including town, township and
1orough clerks for rooms for polling
5laces, and fitting up and arranging
she same, for any and all elections,
general, special or primary, shall be
naid by the respective municipalities,
0wns, townships and boroughs. Un-
der the present laws these charges and
expenses are paid by the Board of Free
SOLDIERS upon the order of the clerk of
ghe municipality in which the election
gas held, and the amount to be paid
rests entirely with the clerk, as under
.yae law he can contract for any
amount he sees fit. In recent case
$50 was allowed for the use of a room
ii a rural district. The freeholders
refused to pay this ex0rbitant amount,
suit was brought and Justice Garrett
son ruled that it was discretionary
Eith the clerk to contract for any
smount he saw fit and the freeholders
must pay it. It is believed that ifthe
municipalities have to pay these bills
the clerks will not have such exalted
IDEAS OF the value Of a room for cleo
Jon purposes. If the bill becomes a
law the county will save nearly So, 900.

in stating that Jersey City would be

of the bill, all property coming with

that he did not believe that commit

Strong opposition was also made on the
part of the board OF athletic control
to the men playing under any manage

While no definite threats were made, it
was limited that the men who partici-
pated In such games would be ex-

Inasnuch as the men had intended
to play ball this spring In order to as

THE MAYOR RESIGNS
Another Warm Contest This Year at
Nevada Is Expected in tho Coming
Municipal Election-Mayor Fitchpat-
rick's Resignation Not to Take Effect
Until After tho Regular Election.

Special to Times Republican.
Nevada, March 5.-The coming mu-
nicipal election In Nevada is expected
to develop into ore of the warmest con-
tests that the town has experienced for
years At special meeting of the
city council held Friday evening the
resignation of Mayor Will p. Fitchpat-
rick was rendered to the body and ac-
cepted. The resignation will not take
effect until after the regular election,
in order that 1t will not be necessary
to call special election or be without
a mayor.
Mr.. kirkpatrick won the nomination
in the republican caucus last year
after one of the hottest caucuses ever
held in the city. M. c. Allen,a we'll
known business man Of the city, who
has long held the reputation of being
the most strenuous advocate of put
ting the lid on Of any citizen in the
town, was the candidate against him,
and his candidacy was supported by a
large IOiloWlns o VolefS VI line opih
ion. Mr.. Kirkpatrick had the united
support Of the younger voters of the
town, as we'll as large portion of the
business men of the town. He received
the nomination by large majority.
His resignation will now necessttate
a repetition of the fight of last year,
and candidates are already being
sprung by the different factions. The
contention Of the younger element in
city politics is not for an "open town."
but for a more liberal administration
of municipal affairs.

suit for damages brought against Wiley

under two charges. He was merely

was introduced and the lawyers fought

foregone conclusion that there would be
verdict for defendant, but when the

DEATH BY INDIGESTION.
A Long Train Of Fatal Ills Is tho Direct
Result Of Undigested Food.


Undigested food, by fermenttng,
forms poison in the stomach and
this is absorbed in the blood. II this
goes on very long, and your heart hap
pens to be weak, you'll be found some
morning dead in bed, or you may fall
back down the stairs about an hour and
half after dinner, and the doctor
will call It heart disease. Yes, that
may be the result, but not the cause
The cause is Indigestion. Indigestion
is a simple. common word, but 1t has
a terrible import.
And you may get apoplexy, ana die
suddenly while you're standing.
If YOU have a weak liver, the poison
Of undiRested food will attack 1t and
you will get jaundice. If you have
weak kidneys you will get Br1ghts
disease or diabetes, from which there
is no rescue for any man.
It was a learned physician who said
that the progress Of race depended
upon the stomachs Of it's members.
And you have at some time IN your
life eaten a heavy meal. or eaten IN
hurry and felt that lump OF lead" I'M
mediately afterward. That lump OF
lead is hard ball of undigested 1000.
The stomach can't digest 1t, ana mas
it hard to throw it out. And so 1t
sours, and it makes you sour and every
body sour who talks with you. IL gives
YOU a bad breath and Is building Tor
you the road to dyspepsia and death,
unless you stop it.
Stop it with Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's. Just think, these little tablets are
every bit as powerful as the gastric
Juice in your stomach. One grain will
digest 1000 grains Of food. Isn't this
wonderful? And it is true, just try It.
and prove 1t.
If you have any brash, gas on the
stomach, fermentation. burning,
bloaty feeling indigestion, dyspepsia or
heartburn, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will make it disappear before 1T can
do any harm to your heart or other
organs.
They will inv!gorate the stomach, re-
lieve the stomach Of two-thirds OF lis
work, and give 1t a chance to rest.
They will increase the flow of gastric
Juice and IL you will ever live" in your
lifetime II will be after you have eaten
good. hearty meal, and taken one Of
these little tablets Immediately after
ward. You'll just feel fine.
Take stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at
ter your next meal today and you will
