will open their 1907 campaign for the

semblymen, a Board of Works Commits
sioner and several aldermen and school
commissioners. The meeting. which
will sound the initial formal appeal for

Fifth, Tenth and Twelfth Ward Demo-
Gratis, composing the strength of the

ranged for a parade through the streets
of those wards. All the necessaries of a

of the Fifth, and Albert H. Biertuemp-
fel, of the Twelfth, have arranged for
the parade and the mass meeting.
1t is the intention of h leaders not
to have the meeting a long one for the
reason that the audience Ia become
tired listening to long speeches, and
that before the meeting the prospect
of a long session may keep away many
who might be inclined to attend. There
fore the leaders have decided that while
there will be plenty of speakers the
spellbinders will be confined to a time
limit.
For tonight's meeting A~ssemblyman
Joseph p. Tumulty, of Hudson County,
an orator of the lower House of the
Legislature, will be the principal as
we'll as the only out-of-town speaker.

niger, nominee for the Board of Works,
