Political Notes.
b. H. MINCH,
EDWARD s. LEE,
w. II. CARTER,
A. Il. SMITH.

Next Tuesday will be primary election
day. Do your duty as citizen and vote.
DR.. James Mecray, of Maple Shade.
who was defeated for Surrogate on the
Democratic ticket, five years ago, is said
to be willing to again be a sacrifice.
J. Howard Burr has withdrawn from
the contest for the Republican nomination
for Surrogate. This leaves Franklin P.
Endicott. William P. Lippincott and
Howard Russ to'tght the battle.
The term of George w. Ebert, as a
member of the Board of Freeholders,
from Southampton will expire this year.
We suppose it is out of all question to
hope for Republican member from that
Republican township.
There is to be quite contest in Florence
over the Chosen Freebooter. Charles
A. Bovine, who has filled the Office two
terms is to have opposition. There does
not seem to be any dissatisfaction over
Mr.. Bowne's administration, it being ac-
knowledged that he has been faithful
official and very valuable member of the
committee at the insane asylum
In casting your ballot do not overlook
the personnel of the men who wish to rep
resent you at the political conventions
Several gentlemen are seeking support
from Republicans to aid them in being
elected as delegates for candidates who
have openly abused the Republican party
There is no reason in the world why true
Republican should help any one who
openly says he will do all in his power to
injure that party.
Joseph L. Hilton will seek reelection as
a member of the Board Of Freeholders from
Chester township. There does not seem
to be any opposition to him, many Demo
Gratis promising their support. This is
the right thing to do. Mr.. Hilton is one
of the wide awake members of the Board
and is always on the alert for the interests
of the county at large, for, while he pays
attention to the affairs of his own town
ship he always has the entire county in
view in all his movements.
The petitions of those who wish to be
come candidates for township Office in
Northampton township have been fled
The Democrats do not seem to care to
form ticket, as the only name mentioned
is that of Harry Hawkins, ST., for Town
ship Committee. The Republicans are
Collector, Frank s. Davis; Freebooter,
William B. Ireland; Township Committee
(two to be voted for Samuel A. Dobbins
Jr., Joseph E. Elbertson. Christian ]
Krayer, Benjamin W. Zelley; Justice of
the Peace. Herman Heilbron; Supervisor
of Roads, Henry G. Claypoole; Surveyor
of Highways, Abraham L. Sailer.
An exciting contest for the nominations
at the primaries next week is expected in
Beverly, where -four members of the
Council are to be chosen. The Republi-
cans will be divided in two factions, the
regulars" and the adherents of the Colby
anti-machine line Those mentioned
among the Republicans are George w.
Adds, Morris r. II. Levin, now president
of Councils VIM. Worth, for reelection;
Edwin Vansciver, William P Crispin and
a number of others. The Democratic can
didates include Colonel r. W. d. Albury,
for reelection; William T. Kirk, James
D. Fish, former Mayor, and Harry Wool
man. Mr. Albury was favorably men
tionediby the Democrats for State Ssna-
tor, but has declined, preferring local
politics.
