HEARD IN
SALEM
DenOunceS GrafterS and
Pleases Crowd Started
for Camden Today.

SALEM, Oct. 17.-At last nights
mass meeting. in the. opera house
here, Mr.. Katzenbach got a SPLEEN
did reception. The people turned out
in large crowds and made a lot of
noise about it. They applauded the
speaker when he denounced the graft
ers at the State Capitol. They were
also evidently favorably impressed, as
the former Mayor of Trenton told
something of his record in hat city's
politics and stamped and showed their
approval at his strong advocacy of
the abolition of all voting machines.
The principal speakers of the evening
shared the platform with ex-Judge
Howard Carrow and ex-Judge Thomas
A. Henry. of Newark. These three
were escorted with lively demonstra-
tons from the Fort House. under the
ocratic club. The candidate had had
but a short half hour for dinner, hav-
ing returned very late from the Du-
pont powder works at Paineville, where
he had a %handshake with a hundred
! odd employees.
The touring party left here for Cam
den at 6 o'clock this morning and
boarded an early train for there to
Hammonton, where it is expected auto
mobiles were waiting to take the mem
bers of the party on a trip through At
lantic County.
Leaving the train from Woodbury. at
Elmer yesterday, Mr.. Katzenbach had
the auto ride of his life, he ex-
planned, when he got back in a little
twelve-horsepower 1904 runabout that
kept buckjumping all over the road as
though intended for a churn. When he
came in from an eighteen-mile run out
through Greenville, Centretown and
Altar CO it was so severely shaken uI
hat a remembrance of the jaunt was
forced upon him every time he at
tempted to sit down throughout the
rest of the day.
There was a pretty little episode or
the road from Elmer to Woodstown
when Mr.. Katzenbach, after a short
noon speech at Elmer. had got under
way again. Opposite what Is known
as the Pool Tavern six or eight mer
and women a gathered ito see tho
Governor go by" and the automobiles
stopped so that Mr.. Katzenbach might
say "how-dy-do" all around. When ht
got out a little 9-year-old girl, dressed
in the best of sashes and fresh, fluffy
skirts, came forward. and, with a pretty
little curtesy, gave him a big bunch Of
flowers. She was Margaret Shade
daughter of John d. Shade. and will
her was little ~7-year-old WoodburI
Mick1e, son of John Mickle, who aIst
bashfully presented a bouquet. TheI
the three posed for their pictures il
front of the Did inn, which stands oil
what used to be known as the post roaC
to Camden. The building was in us
during the Revolution. n near it L
an arsenal where combustibles wer'
kept during the war of 1912,
Mr.. Katzenbach, continuing, mad
stops after lunch at Woodstown, Au
burn, Pedricktown, Penn Grove an
Pennsville. In the farming country h
met many funny characters. Not tn
! least amusing of these was an old ma
at Auburn.
; ST don't know nothin' stal abou
votin' machines" he told the Guber
, material candidate, "'but If you kin tel
how to keep the cranberries from get
tin frost nipped. and how to stop tn
hogs from havin' cholera, its liable {
appeal to me rs much as anything"
