SO THE HOST BEGAN
ACTIVE POSSIBILITIES
After Routing Out a Judge the
Local Man Was Ar
rested.

William Fleming wal held by Judge
Hackleton, at Mi1lburn, in $1,000 bail
today. to await the action of the grand
jury for ill-treating his brother-in-law,
John De Groat, Of Brooklyn.
De Groat and his wife went last eve
ming to call on MI. and Mrs. Fleming,
in Lackawanna place, Millburn, where
much beer is said to have been con-
sumed. Later, when the hour for re-
firing had long passed, the De Greats
were averse to returning to their own
fireside, and announced their intention
of remaining at the Fleming residence.
In the alteration which followed, ow-
ing to a certain disinclination on the
part of the hosts to be h~ostpitable, Mr..
De Groat was rather badly banged up,
and after wandering around in the dark
ways of Millburn, routed out Judge
Hackleton and swore out a warrant fer
the arrest of his erstwhile companion
and antagonist.
When arraigned this morning Flem-
ing had no very good excuse for his
conduct and was thought sufficiently
culpable to be held.

That practically every vote in the

The time for the real work will be

John w. Roche for freeholder, and
this fact became known today when
the joke victim visited the Town Hall.
One of the town officers stepped up
behind him and deposited a ballot with
Roche's name scratched in the pocket
of Roche's unsuspecting friend.
A councilman, who happened along
was told of the matter, and he began
to jolly the man with the scratched bal
lot, and after much persuasion the joke
victim put his hand in his pocket and
drew forth the scratched ballot, much
to the delight of all present.

BITTERLY OPPOSED

Candidates Are Bringing Out the

The only women who ever ran for
Office in Arlington were busy today in
the Third and Fourth wards mastering
votes for school trusteeships. They
have been Endorsed by more than 500 of
the most prominent men in the town,
but strangely enough, they are opposed
most strongly by another woman, Mrs.
Belle butcher, who has another plan
for the management Of the schools.
And in the campaign of the women
there are as much practical politics as
any men could inject.
The candidates are Mrs. William C..
Eakins, of lakewood avenue, who wants
to represent the Third ward. and Mrs.
Louise NJ. Macarthur, who Is after the
Fourth ward nomination. Mrs. E9akins
has the Endorsement of the Regular
Republicans and Democrats, and is OPP
posed by G.. w. McClintock, who is
favored by the New Idea Repubiit ans.
Mrs. Eakins, it is confidently predict
ed. will have 10 trouble in getting the
nomination. but. all the same, her
women supporters are not resting for
a minute in their work for her.
Mrs. Macarthur expects to get the
Republican Endorsement at the pri-
maries, but she is opposed by the pres
ent secretary of the Board of Educa-
ton. John A.. Smith, also a Republican.
Mr.. Smith wants to hold on to his job,
which Is salaried, and he cant do that
unless he is a school trustee. c. c.

and a number of church clubs. The
members of these clubs have been MAX

candidates, holding mass-meetlngs ana
talking to every ma of their acquafnt-
ance in the effort to get votes.
Mrs. Eakins said today:
1.-THE principal reason why there
should be women on the Board of Edu-
cation is because there should be closer
cooperation between the school ana
the home. Women will be freer to ex-
press their views to one of their own

MAYORALTY CONTEST in
WEST ORANGE EXCITING
School Board Is the Contention
in Orange and Council in
East ORANGE.

Voters were out in good force in the
Oranges this afternoon, when the pri-
maries opened at 1 o'clock. In West
Orange the contest between Mayor
William e. Condit and Councilman
Herman Freye for the Democratic
mayoralty nomination brought inter-
ested citizens out early, and the big
fight In Orange over the school board
was the principal topic. The three tick
cts had many supporters and the men
were at the polls loon after moor but
ton-holing voters. In East Orange the
various contests for Council in the sew
eral wards proved topics for animated
discussion.
The saloons, when the polls opened,
were promptly closed and will not re-
open until 0 o'clock tonight.
There Is a large "vest-pocket" vote
in evidence this afternoon, the political
parties having sent tickets arranged
for voting by mail yesterday.
The New Idea men in Orange, back
ing County Register Edward S. Perry
for mayor, gent out ballots with the
Son-partisan school board left on. This
incensed the followers of the straight
Republican ticket, who are vowing re-
taliation on election day. The Demo-
Gratis are favoring the Straight" Demo-
cratic ticket, but it seems a foregone
conclusion that the Republican ticket
will have the non-partisan board nomi-
nees on election day.
In the. First district of the Second
ward the ballot In the Republican pri-
mary is twenty-five inches in length
and has seventy-five names on it. 1t is
expected the count of votes will not be
finished until daylight.

FLEET BRINGS MONEY.
Farmers Profk by the Visit OF the
Battleships


II is estimated that the farmers OF
the Pacific northwest have profited
to the extent of S1,500,000 through
the visit of the battleship fleet to this
coast, says the Coast Magazine. Scores
OF foreign, steamships were sent TO
this coast with fuel for the fleet of
Admiral Evans, and found 1t impos-
sible TO get anything but. a wheat
charter for the return trip. AS re-
suit of the sudden increase in the
charter market, rates tumbled harder
than exporters have known in years.
Six months ago steamship charters
were being made on the basis Of S6
TO 40 shillings for a trip to Europe. A
few days ago charters were made on
a basis OF 22 shillings pence for
steamships and 20 shillings for SAIL
ing vessels.
This slump in charter rates saved
the farmers of eastern Washington
S1.500,000. Grain exporters point out
that they have been paying to the
grain raisers the total amount of the
saving in shipping charges and cite
the fact that the difference between
Chicago and Seattle grain prices was
never so small.
