BOTH PARTIES
CHEER HARR|GAN
IN |RWNGTON
Candidate for Sheriff a Speaker
at Rally Where Annexation
Was Discussed.

Masonic Hall, I%rvington, was well
filled last night, when a meeting called
to ratify the Democratic nominees was
opened by Alfred T. ~Sorgenfree, presi-
len Of the Irvington Democratic AS
ISOLATION. Westfall Gardner, the
mayoralty candidate, after urging
every voter to support the whole ticket,
dwelt at some length or the subject OF
annexation with Newark. Mr.. Gardner
is an anti-annexationist, and said that,
inasmuch as it took the people seventy
five years to get for the town a govern
ment of its own, it should not be eager
to give it away for nothing.
William Harrigan was greeted with
a storm of applause from both Demo-
Gratis and Republicans when he an
peared. He said that he had Just beer
through the suburbs, and had spent
about ten minutes in each place. He
said that he did not expect to carry
~Irvington, but was confident of cleo
ton.
John A. Felndt, candidate for coun-
Gilman, had just started to address the
meeting when Harry V. Osborne made
his appearance. Mr.. Feindt immedi-
ately gave way to the senatorial can
didate. Mr.. Osborne's remarks were
brief. He said he thought he owed the
people of I%rvington a visit for the man
ner in which they treated him at the
primaries.

HELD BOOTBLACKS
BOX WHILE BOY.
WENT FOR CHANGE
That Was Dozen Years Ago and
the Boy Hasn't Come Back,
Says Kearny Man.

Frederick L. Pierce. the Republican
candidate for town collector of Kearny,
was the victim of a joke about a
dozen years g that he is just making
known. Mr.. Pierce, it seems, was born
in Upper New York State. He had
occasion n time to come Town to
New York city and when he arrived at
that city he was unable to locate the
people who were to meet him. He was
waiting around the depot a while, when
an Italian bootblack approached him
and asked him IL he wanted a shine.
Il looked at my Shoes" said Pierce,
land decided that they would stand a
cleaning, SO I told the bootie to go
ahead. He finished in a few minutes
and 1 dog down in my jeane for the
price. ] found that I had nothing less
than a IS goldpiece.
Ct getta da change spoke up the son
of sunny Italy, and I handed him the
gold coin. He gave me his box and
told me to hold it until he came back.
II have been waiting aver since for
the change and still have the box; IL
there is nyone who will give me $40
for 1t, they can have it,"
Mr.. Pierce is getting the laugh from
every n who heard how E. u. HI was.

some statements that he said Coun-
Gilman Clarence II. Van Deren had
made about him.
He referred to Van Deren as the
Gear of the Third ward.'
Millett said: "Mr. Van Deren would
like to know whether, If | am elected,
/ would stand by the Third and Fourth
wards. / had rather Clarence himself
asked me that, but in answer I will
say that If I am elected l will stand by

It'll stand by all that's good and

CAUSED DEATH
Otto Yeltz, After Fall from Car,
Escapes with Severe In
juries to Knee.
SENT TO POLICE STATION
INSTEAD OF A HOSPITAL
Long Line OF Cars Within Inches
of Crushing Him on the
Kearny Meadows.

With his knee-cap probably broken
and in great agony, Otto Yeltz, q years
old, of Sc Greenwich street, New YORK,
was locked up in the Kearny police
station all last night when he should
have been in a hospital having his IN
juries attended to.
Yeltz, who is a chimney builder, was
stealing a ride on a freight train on
the Pennsylvania in the Kearny
meadows last night with Charles Kes-
tovalski, who is also a chimney builder
and resides in New York. In some I'M
accountable way Yeltz fell from the
train and landed a few inches from he
wheels. He was unable to rise and
was in such a position that the waste
box of every car of the train that
passed, numbering ffty-flve, struck his
knee.
Meantime kestovalski missed his
friend, and getting down from the car,
walked back and found him in intense
agony. Detectives Valelley and Coax
ley, of the Pennsylvania Railroad de-
tective force, happened along and old
the two to accompany them to the
Kearny police station.
Today a Pennsylvania Railroad ply
sician visited the police station and at
tended Yeltz, whose knee he found to
be in a very bad condition.
Why the police did not send Yeltz 20
, a hospital could not be learned.
Both will get a hearing tonight.

WANT SEPARATE
ELECTIONS HELD
IN EAST ORANGE
Republican Club Will Be Asked
to Work for Passage of
Necessary Law.
VOTING DEVICES MAKE
MORE BOTHER THIS YEAR
City Clerk Rowley Has Had
Trouble Finding Machines Big
Enough to Hold Names.

The board of governors of the East
Orange Republican Club. one of the
largest political organizations in the
State, will shortly be appealed to by
prominent men of the city to work for
the passage of a law for the separation
of national, State and municipal cleo
tons. 1t Is understood that Edward s.
Pierson, chairman of the City Council,
and a member of the board, will also
advocate the taking up of the question
and work for the passage Of the neces-
sary legislation.
Mr.. Pierson said last night that 1t
was highly improper to have the present
/ arrangement continue. 81 am opposed
to the SYSTEM declared Mr.. Pierson.
'and am confident that in the nea
future enough sentiment will be
aroused to have the Legislature pass a
law doing way with the mixed cleo
ions which make matters so COM
plicated for the average voter. 1t Is
true that the matter will be brought
to the attention of the board of gov
ernors of the Republican club, and I
hope for success. l an certainly very
much in favor OF separating the cleo
tons"
The situation in East Orange Is par
ticularly trying this year, as the voters
in every ward but the First will be
compelled to use the voting machines.
In some districts there have been SO
many candidates that City Clerk Lin
coin e. Rowley found it was impos-
sible to use the regular sized machines.
He notified Secretary of State Samuel
Dickinson, who secured the State in an
effort to secured anger machines. 1t Is
said that, as a result of the strenuous
search, the larger machines will be
located in the troublesome districts.
and voters who have been against the
continuance. of the device in the city
will be further bothered.
Members of h East Orange Demo-
cratic Club also favor the separation
of elections and the organization will
work against the present law in the
near future. :

k|NkEAD'S LAST
KEARNY SPEECH
STIRRED VOTERS
Takes Another Fling at Crich-
field in Final Democratic
Rally There.
DENIES CONNECTION
WITH PUBLIC SERVICE
Hears Opponents Expenses
Were Paid by Vice-President
of Asphalt Trust.

A fitting speech ended the Demo-
cratic campaign of Eugene F. Kinkead,
candidate for Congress from the Ninth
congressional district, at least as far
as that candidate is concerned in
Kearny.
MI. Kinkead visited the Kearny Town
Hall last night and made one of his
best speeches. He said in part:
I'VE have fought the fight and the
verdict will be known Wednesday. l
have put forth my arguments to you.
They have all been fair, and / think
| am entitled to ask you to support
me. l stand on u American prin-
ciples, such as are being advocated by
Democrats and the best of Republi-
al I am here under no false pre-
lenses. l nave always been consistent
ly a Democrat, but I have advocated
all good measures put forth by good
Republicans"
The congressional candidate then
took a fling at his opponent, George
w. Crichfield. Some time ago 1 asked
Mr.. Crichfield to make public the fact
"a WIN was pdylllS his ex-
penses. Last night he met me and
told me his brother. who is vice-presi-
dent of the asphalt trust, was footing
the campaign bill and would spend
thousands of dollars IL necessary to in
sure his election. This is all l ever
wanted to have him say I thought 1t
from the~start, but, OF course, lacked
confirmation.
Mr.. Crichfield asked me what the
Public Service Corporation, had to do
with my campaign and this was my
answer: Some time ago an independent
lighting company came to Jersey City
and sought a franchise. Their rate was
lower than that of the Public Service.
and 1 as an alderman voted to grant
them the franchise, and would do the
same thing again. Conclude yourselves
as to how I am mixed in with the
Public Service. I told Crichfield that
every dollar l spent was earned money,
and I defy him to say the same.'
1t is said many Kearny Republicans
will vote for Kinkead.
