Some sharp Debate.

The meeting was marked by some
sharp debate over the question OF in
dorsing candidates. When the resolu-
ton adopted by the executive commit
tee was presented, that no candidate
be indOrSed unless he first made a
statement of his principles, opposition
developed. The resolution was offered
originally on Monday by Colonel Henry
y. Potter. of East Orange. and was
supported by him last night, During
the executive committee meeting reso-
buttons to indorse candidates were
passed against protests by Colonel Pot
ter and some others who thought it
antagonistic to the spirit of the direct
primary law. Assemblyman Martin
thought the resolution a work of
supererogation." because he did not
believe the league would indorse any
body who would not make a declaration
of principles in accord with those of
The league.
When the resolution was put nobody
opposed the resolution, despite the de-
bate.
It wa decided. on motion OF Gard
ner Colby. State president of the
league. not to indorse any candidates
last night. but to do so at the meeting
of next Tuesday night. The meeting
last night was small and special notices
to members will be sent out. to insure

His statement.

Il hereby announce myself a candi-

The statement was made during a
talk Mr.. Morgan was called on to make
during the meeting. He Is president
of the league, but owing to the fact
that he was to make his announcement
and that he expected to leave for Bos-

becomes OF the large number sup
piled every month. he watched the
waste paper baskets. From the bas-
kets OF these two offices. in one day
Mr.. Luhrer picked out twenty-one
penholders. A careful examination
shows nothing wrong with the hold
ers. except for an occasional Ink spot,
they are as good as the day they camo
