Congressional Candidate Makes
Breezy Speech to Montclair
Second Warders.

"~Cannonism' was fred at by Edward
w. Townsend. candidate for Congress
in the Seventh district, at a meeting In
the Second ward of Montclair last night.
Among other things. Mr.. Townsend
said:
There has been a somewhat sudden
but very strong uprising of public feel
ing against the czar-like methods of
Speaker Cannon. His arrogance. his
unfairness, his determined n persist
ent protection of special interests, his
~insolent stand against even a discus
sion in the House of Representatives of
any bill seeking a relief for the people
from the extortionate exactions of the
protective tariff, have made anti-Can-
nonism, 1 find, a popular issue with the
people,"
Speaking of his own campaign, the
author-candidate said:
81 met a friend from Boston who
said that it was too bad they could not
vote for me in New England, as | was
running strong in the newspapers up
there. A brother of mine who recently
came from Chicago told me that he
was on here to see If I was running as
we'll in the seventh Jersey district as
I was in the ewspape of h Middle
West. OF course, my friend and my
brother made the similar remark by

NUTLEY Man FINDS
FAULT BECAUSE He
HAD NO TAX BILL
Not Only Willing, but Eager to
Pay, He Makes Formal Conn
plant to Council.
SECOND WARDERS KICK
AT THEIR ASSESSMENTS
Engineer Sheperd's Figures, I'm
satisfactory to Residents, Com
frmed by Town Fathers.

A willing taxpayer has been dis
covered at last, and Nutley is his place
of residence. Christopher Gilman is his
name. Mr.. Gilman appeared before the
Nutley Town Courcil last night and,
instead Of Directing because he had
been over-assessed or anything like
that, astonished the members by act
ually making a complaint that he had
not received any tax bill. He was
ag~grieved because he had not been
given the chance. He desired to have
the matter attended to at once.
The Second ward section OF the town
was well represented at the meeting
to protest against the High street
sidewalk assessments. This matter a
been UP before the Council at several
previous meetings, and last night was
set for the purpose of adjusting the
difference of opinion between the resi-
dents of High street and Town
Engineer Frank t. Sheperd. Abijah c.
Fox and John Howilngs were spokes-
men for the protestants. who claim that
there was a difference of about 50
between the figures of the residents of
High street and the engineers figures.
Nothing of a satisfactory nature was
arrived at.
Arbitration Proposed.
The town engineer made q PROPOSE
ton that a competent engineer be Sc
lected by Mayor Thomas S. Brown, on
condition that, if Sheperd's figures
should prove accurate the citizens in
terested must pay the expenses of the
engineer selected, and all other ex-
penses incurred in the matter. If Shep-
erd's figures prove inaccurate he would
bear the expenses. This was not alto
gether satisfactory to Mr.. Howlings
and Sheperd withdrew his proposition.
Finally, on motion of Councilman
Henry Mortimer Libby, the assess
ments were confirmed. The sidewalk as
sessments in Hillside avenue n Co
lonial teri ace were confirmed.
An amendment was offered to section
6 of the shade tree ordinance, making
the number of members of the COM
mission six, instead of three. Free
holder Abram Blum requested that the
town engineer be instructed to give the
street lines of Brookfeld avenue to the
county engineer, to enable him to pro-
coed with the widening of the bridge
over Third River on that thoroughfare.
License Revoked.
The chairman of the police commit
tee submitted a special report in refer
ence to the Albert Campbell Hot Il, in
River road. A letter from Campbell
was read, stating that he had left town
and had nc further interests in the no.
tel. Campbell requested that the Coun-
Gil revoke the license, and this was
done.
Michael ]. Freeman. whose license to
keep an i'm and tavern at the corner
of Walnut street and 'Avondale road
| was held up and a license fee of 5000
returned to him, appeared before the
Council to request that the interest on
the money for the time it was in the
hands of the town be paid to him. On
motion of Councilman Arthur N. Carr
it was decided to pay Mr.. freeman at
the legal rate.
