BALDWIN OUT
FOR CONGRESS-
NOMINATION
Says He Thinks the Race is
Open One and That Howell
Has Been HOnOred.
us POPULAR IN THIS CITY

G. c. Baldwin, of this city, an
nounced today that he is a candidate
for the republican nomination for
congress in the third district He
says he feels that the race is an open
one; that the position of congress-
man belongs to no one man; that, in
his opinion, Benjamin f. Howell has
had the place long enough to get all
the honor there is attached to 1t, as
well as fair slice of the remunera-
tion, and that there is no harm in
any man trying for the place.
Mr.. Baldwin, since he has taken
his stand, will probably have solid
delegation from this city for him at
the convention. He is we'll known
and popular in Perth Amboy. He
had the backing of this community
for delegate to the Chicago conven-
ton, but was beaten by the Public
Service president, Thomas McCarter,
supposed to be from Monmouth coun-
ty. Mr.. Baldwin then went as an al
ternate.
Mr.. Baldwin is recognized as a
clean and intelligent man we'll fitted
to represent the district in congress
and, should he be nominated and
elected, he would be credit to his
city, district and to the nation.

SUIT AGAINST
CHEMICAL co.

Lawyer Joseph e. Stricken, repre-
senting five residents of Mechanic
street, in the vicinity of plant No. 2,
of the Roessler G Hasslacher Chem
ical Company, has issued declarations
and summons IN another action
against that concern. A similar suit
amounting to about $4,000, has
been started and may be tried in the
September term of the New Jersey
Supreme Court. In the former ac-
tion the plaintiffs seek to recover
1880 each, for suffering and an
noyances they have undergone while
living near plant No. of the de-
PENDANTS, from a certain time to the
date of suit. The new action has
been brought in the same amounts
to cover the period of disturbances
from the date of the last suit in De-
cember, 1906 to the time of the pres
ent action. Should each OF the plain
tiffs win out, as did Doyle in his suit
against the same corporation, they
will each be enriched $1,000. And,
unless the company remedies the nui-
sances OF makes a permanent settle
ment, other similar actions are likely
to follow. The plaintiffs are. An

During a special meeting Of the
Board Of Aldermen last night, after

ton OF State street, the following
resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That the street COM

Resolved, That the street com

on State street as required by their
franchise Upon their failure to So
do that the city will have the same
done at their expense"
Alderman Cannon said that he had
heard that the Hastings company
had received the contracts from the
railway company. but that it would
do no harm to pass the resolutions,
even If the matter had been settled.
Alderman Shultz spoke ON the way
the Public Service had been treating
the city and after he had concluded
Alderman Cannon said. 1T is time
that we let them know that the city

Mayor Bollschweiler's letter. In
which he rebuked the Public Service
Railway Company, was ais follows:
The Mayors Letter.
ITO the Honorable Council of the
City of Perth Amboy:
"Gentlem en-
Since the latter part of June OF
this year, or, to be more accurate,
for a period of upward of six weeks
the Public Service Railway Company
has officially known of the intention
of the city to pave State street with
asphalt blocks As mayor, / have
made several attempts to communi-
cate with the representatives of the
company concerning the matter, with
the idea of amicably hurryinge the
work. Seeing the dilatoriness of the
Public Service Railway Company In
doing their part to promptly begin
and complete their part Of the paw
ing, l was constrained to believe that
it was their intention to hinder and
delay the same.
"They well knew that a contract
had been made by the city with the
Hastings Pavement Company and
that the latter company could not
proceed with their contract until the
railway company should be prepared
to do their part OF the paving They
knew that 1t would be only at
great additional expense that the
street should be paved to a point
where the railway company should
begin to pave and that your honor
able body could not, in fairness,
cast such additional expense upon
the property owners or upon the
city, and that you would hesitate to
take steps which might involve tne
city in litigation.

morrow that National Chairman Nor
man T. Mack viii preside at the notlf-
cation exercises. Rev. Father E. ].
Nugent will deliver the invocation. Mr..
Bryan has asked Mr.. Kern to make a
speech, and It is probable that he will
accept. Ten special trains, mainly
from Nebraska towns, it was an
nounced, will arrive In Lincoln today.
Representative Clayton, chairman Of
the notification committee, visited Mr..
Bryan and read his speech of notii-
cation. After Mr.. Bryan read his ac-
ceptance speech Mr.. Clayton was high
" delighted. at is mighty strong
document" he declared, "and so much
more decided and original than Taft's
that there is no comparison. Bryan Is
his own man. aud Taft is another
mans man, and the two speeches show
it." Mr.. Clayton's own speech con-
tains 700 words.
Mr.. Bryan agreed to a plan to or
ganixe the southern vote In northern
states. 1t is estimated that there are
100000 southern votes In New York
state alone There is a heavy south
ern vote In Indiana, Illinois and Ohio.

which to defray the expenses of the

Conspicuous among the decorations
are Bryan Autographs. It is said that
1900 Of these were distributed in the
city and county within the past week.
Comparatively few Taft Autographs
are in evidence either in the city or

The disposition Of the Republican

of the notification even by insisting
upon a display of Taft and Sherman
