Mr.: Hainer dealt impartially with Mr..
Belcher, with whom he had been a CO.
worker for many years, dwelling on
his weaker points. as well as his many
recognized good qualities. Mr.. Hainer
declared that in the darkest hours, just
following the sudden death of the late
pastor, it had seemed to all that the
work in the Hilton Christian Church
must stop then and there, so thorough
" had Mr.. Belcher infused his per-
sonality in every branch of the work.
Later thought brought hope and then
confidence, he said, that somehow a
man will be found who will carr yon the
work. He warned the congregation
against disappointment, saying that

who will enter the work as did Mr..
Belcher, who gave his whole time over
to the work for almost no monetary
compensation. The choir sang two
anthems.

Their plea being u~navailing, the
youngsters pelted Sternfield with any
thing that came handy. The dog
catcher drew his club, threatened the
children and drove away
Wallace's friends could not think of
his being done away with, 70 it was
agreed that everyone chip in. This was
lone and the crowd visited the Town
Hall, but could not get the dog be-
cause of the absence of the catcher.
After being assured that Wallace would
hot be killed they left the hail. prom

HARRISON LIKELY
AGAIN TO ELECT
MAYOR R|ORDAN
He Has Agreed to Be Democratic
Candidate and Will Have
Republican Approval.
INSISTED ON RULING LAW
WAS UNCONSTITUTIONAL
New Legislation Will Enable Him
to Hold Office If
Elected.

Former Mayor Joseph P. Riordan, of
Harrison, who was ousted from office
last fall when the law under which he
held the position was declared invalid,
today announced that he would be a
candidate for Mayor at the Democratic
primaries in September. He made the
following statement:
Through the constant urging of
many citizens 1 have agreed to again
become a candidate. The town was de-
prived of a Mayor through no fault of
the people nor of mine, but rather the
fault of the law" There is now al,
existing law permitting the town to
have a Mayor.
This probably means hat the Re-
publicans will indorse Mayor. Riordan's
candidacy, as they have done in the
past.
1t was never definitely known by the
public who the persons were who in
stigated the proceedings to unseat
Mayor Riordan. Previous to the office
of mayor being created, deadlocks were
common in the Town Council, 1t being
composed of eight members, and this
condition of affairs was ended when
Mayor Riordan took office.
Since he was unseated the old con-
dition of affairs has cropped UP In
the Council. a deadlock being on at
present for the office of town clerk.
