SHOENIHAL MAY
GIVE UP POLITICS
WHEN TERM ENDo
Orange Mayor Likely to Limit
His Campaigning to a
Single Address.

Considerable interest is being evil
6enced in Orange in an effort to induce
Mayor ~Shoenthal, of that city, to take
the stump for the~success of the Demo-
cratic ticket. 1t is known that promi-
nent leaders from the city and Newark
lave urged the executive to speak for
the candidates, while other friends are
urging him to refrain from making any
addresses.
Alderman John c. Fineran, of the
First ward, received the promise yes
terday from the mayo that he would
deliver an address in hat section Mon
day night for his friend, William Har-
rigan, ~shrievealty candidate, and Arthur
B. Seymour, m~ayoralty aspirant. The
mayor made the promise after consid-
cradle urging. 1t is probable, however.
that he will not deliver any more ad-
dresses during the campaign.
Many politicians express the opinion
that the mayo is not enthusiastic over
the actions of some leaders during the
primary contest. 1t is said that after
he retires as chief executive of the
city at the beginning of the new year
he will give up politics altogether.

SHOENTAAL WON'T

Despite advance statements given
some publicity yesterday that Mayor
Isaac ~Shoenthal, of Orange, would be
confronted with further legal troubles
in an effort to compel him to sign the
warrant to pay the American La
France Company for an Orange fire
truck which the Mayor declares is not
in accordance with specifications, there
will be no further effort to get the
name of Mayor Shoenthal on the war
rant.
His honor retires as Mayor at the
close of the present year and as post

next of a proposed hearing on a rule
to show cause, the fire truck row, SO
far as Mayor Shoenthal is concerned,
Is practically at an end. His successor,
Councilman Arthur B. Seymour or
County Register Edward S. Perry, will
be called Upon to sign the warrant.

Mayor Shoenthal today when discussing
the postponement of the hearing to a

pose IL Mr.. Seymour is elected there
will be a further contest, and If Mr..
Perry wins the truck concern is no
doubt satisfied that he will sign the
