KEARNY RESIDENTS
DEMAND CLEANER
CARS ON HUDSON
Traction %Company's Coaches Are
Filthy, Board of Trade
Declares.
BOARD OF HEALTH TO
LOOK INTO MATTER
Smoking Allowed in Passenger
Coaches on Part of the
Trip.

Unless the Hudson River Traction
Company does something to better the
conditions of its Ears that now run
through Kearny and which at certain
Lours of the day are in a filthy condi-
ton, there will be some trouble made
for that company. The Arlington Board
of Trade at a meeting last night took
up the matter, and made it a subject
of lengthy discussion in which nearly
every member Of the board voiced his
Indignation at the condition of the cars.
Axel Sydow, a member of the board,
brought the matter up. He told of how
in the early morning hours. the cars
were a sight, the smoking compart-
ments had been taken out Of some OF
the vehicles and passengers were al
lowed to smoke while the car was
north of Arlington, so that when 1t
reached Arlington the floor was strewn
with cigar and cigarette Quits"
1t seems that two crews handle the
cars; the Public Service people assume
charge of the cars at Arlington, while
north of that point the car is in charge
of a Hudson River Company crew IT
was explained that nc smoking Is al
lowed after the car reaches Arlington.
and the Public Service crew takes
charge, so that tho fault really lies
with the Hudson River people.
Mr.. Sydow moved that the matter be
to the Kearny Board of Health
and have that body get after the Hud-
son River Company. The motion was
unanimously adopted.
A lengthy report on the value and
beauty of shade trees and the advisa-
bility Of appointing a shade tree COM
mission was read.

kINkEAD MAKING
STRONG RUN AND
MAY WIN KEARNY
Poll About Normal, with lndlca-
lions of Heavy Vote Before
Day Is Over.
MUCH INTEREST IN
MATTER FOR COUNCIL
National Ticket Is Sure to G0
Through with COlOrs
Flying.

There is plenty of life in political
circles in Kearny today. The vote In
the town up until noon was about nor
nal; tina is to say, in every dlstrlct
about half of the registered voters
had &c st their vote In the Third and
Fourth wards the vote will be extra
heavy. and it will be well into the
small hours of tomorrow morning be-
fore the counting will have been COM
pleted. In the other wards the results
will be known about midnight or short
~ after.
The town is ordinarily Republican,
but today there are some good ngnts
being waged by Democrats. For in
stance, Eugene F. Kinkead, the Demo-
cratic candidate for Congress from the
Ninth congressional district, is making
a fine run in the town, and it is stated
from good authority that he will carry
the town by a substantial majority
over his Republican opponent, George
w. Crichfeld.
The fight for the office of town clerk
will also be an interesting one. This
is between James McAviney. Democrat,
and William B. Ross, Republican. Nc
Aviney is making q stiff fight, and, In
fact, is surprising the voters of the
town, as 1t was at first thought that
on Of his being a Democrat he
would not have a .look-in."
James j. McAteer, Democrat, and
Thomas Chamberlain, Republican, are
fighting it out in the Second ward FOR
the Office of councilman and there is
more interest centred OF this contest
in the ward n town in general than
there Is in the presidential election.
McAteer is expected to best Chamber
lain, and in order to insure. his election
he has hosts of friends not only at the
polling districts but all through the
ward. Chamberlain is working hard
and feels confident of being elected.
In the Fourth ward there is another
good fight for the office of councilman.
This is a three-cornered fight between
william Barry, Democrat; Alfred An
dersoD, Republican, and John Liebfeld,
Independent. Liebfield was defeated for
the Republican nomination at the pri-
maries by Anderson, and he decided to
run independently. From the charac-
ter of the talk heard around the polls
today, it seems that Barry will poll a
heavy vote and come out on top.
AS far as the presidential election is
concerned, it's plainly a case of Taftand
Sherman all through the town. Mrs. Will
liam C. Eakins is out for the office of
school trustee in the Third ward, and
II Is conceded that she will win by a
big majority.

BALLOTS FOUND

Democratic Ticket Too Late
for Correction.

Another error has been discovered IN
the Belleville ballots to be used today,
in hat the appropriation for the poor
was left off the Democratic ticket.
The mistake was found yesterday,
but 1t was too late then to make cor
rections. As a result 1t Is thought that
most tickets will be voted without the
appropriation rather than risk invali-
dating the ballots.
