AGKERMAN TO DRYDEN.
Union County Senator Thinks i
About Time for Dryden to Quit
and Save His Party.

PLAINFIELD, Jan. 31:--Discuss-
ing the letter of Senator John F. Dry
dem in which the latter has asked for
)an omen conference with the state
lawmakers, State Senator Ernest K.
Ackerman, who has opposed Dryden's S
tandfdacy from the start, made a
statement yesterday in answer to
Drvden's declaration that he has
earned recollection. Mr. Ackerman
said:
sMhat have we as Legislators in
our possession which Mr.. Dryden can
claim as d debt? What have we as
legislators which he can claim by
authority? Does Mr.. Dryden throw
down n challenge for the senatorship,
and on what basis2
ITS ii not clear that there is q
strong and growing opposition among
the people to his return to Washing
ton? Would it be wise for Mr.. Dry
den or the republican party to at
tempt to throttle this difference of
opinion among the people? What do
you think the people will do to a
political party should it attempt to
make valid the personal claim of any
gentleman?
1--WE are not here to liquidate
aUtUtS vi Stllit CidluiS. OuI uulN Is
plain and well defined. We are to
elect senator to congress. We must
select a gentleman who will be salts
factory to the people.
These are times for disinterested
unselfishness rather than for attempt-
ing to fasten a claim on the party,
and we have now reached that criti-
cal moment as sohwn by the obiec-
tion to Mr.. Dryden on the part of the
people. What will be the result?
am generous enough to credit Mr..
Dryden with desire to serve the
best interests of his party rather than
to claim everything without regard
to party politics.

DOM WANT REPEAL
OF BISHOPS LAW

PLAINFIELD, Jan. 31:--Plain-
field saloon keepers are not in sympa-
thy with the bishops bill repeal meas
ure, and say that should it be passed
it will be of no benefit to them. The
local saloon men say they do not want
the clause providing for the opening
of the saloons part of the Sundays to
become law
I'VE don't want to keep open Sun
day or any part of Sunday" said
Christian Gloecker, one of the local
liquor dealers I'VE can do business
enough in six days and we need one
day off in the week. Besides, we are
being treated pretty well by the peo-
pie and if they don't want Sunday sell
ling, we don't either"
when the bishops bill was
passed" said he, we felt little hurt
for it classed us along with the rest
of the fellows in the big cities who
have need for some law to make them
keep straight But we don't need it.
We keep closed after hours and keep
orderly places and there is no kick
ing. We felt it was a little hard on
us to have the license fee doubled up
to $1,000 year.
''The only thing we don't like is
that part of the law that makes us
take down the window screens.
don't see what good it does anyway.
There isn't anything inside that we
are ashamed of, and if there is any
thing that the public is ashamed of
wouldn't it be better to keep up the
screens than to take them down?
mo. hope that they don't do
anything with that bill They had
better let we'll enough alone. We don't
want to sell on Sundays anyway"

DIAMONDGONE
AND CASE
PUZZLES
No Evidence THAT Burglar
Got Into Wand Home in
Lincoln Avenue

robbery that is shrouded in mys-
terry was reported to the police of the
Second Precinct Police Station last
night by Charles w. Wand. of 232 Lin
coin avenue. 1t is supposed to have
occurred about $40 o'clock and while
the members of the Wand family were
at home. A diamond ring valued at $3S
was reported stolen. Roundsmen
Wright and Feller and Policeman
Brady were sent to the house to in
vestigate the case, but were unable to
learn anything that would throw light
on the matter.
1t was shortly after 0 o'clock that
Mrs. Wand called up the Second Pre-
cinct Station and told the desk SER
geant that her house had been robbed
and that a diamond ring was gone.
! tShe told the police that about O'Clock
1 her sister, IS years of age, living with
her, started upstairs to retire. She
said that the sister had been gone only
a few moments when she came down
stairs and told her that there was a
man in Mrs. Wand's bedroom.
Mrs Wand Immediately telephoned
for her husband to come home, and in
the meantime examined the doors and
two women then went upstairs and
went through the different rooms, but
no trace of a burglar could be found
The windows on the second floor were
also secure. In Mrs. Wand's bedroom
bureau drawer was open and a jewel
case in which she kept her engagement
ring was open, and the ring had disap-
peared. Mrs. Wand is unable to say
how the burglar could have gotten in
the house as some member of the fam
lily was at home during the entire day.
She is also nonplussed to know how he
made his escape as every avenue of
egress was secure when she and her
sister examined them a moment after
she was told that a man was in the
house.
The police are inclined to believe that
there is some mistake and that the
ring has been misplaced. An examina-
tion about the house on the lawn failed
to find any trace of a mans foot prints.
