An Objection to HeydIer.

The chief objection to Heydler was the fact that he stood by his umpires. Heyd- Ter because of this objection never had chance in the recent election, but the ap- pointment of Lynch fig sure to yindicate him. Lynch and Heydler know what good umpiring means and they say they will work in perfect harmony.
 A story was told today Of clash Lynch. az an umpire, hah with sc, tain club owner in the days of riot ous conduct on the ball field. Lynch had rendered Il number of close decisions against the home team ond was ieaving ne grounds when the mngnate coniront- cd hirn at the door of the clubhouse.

 Let me tell you something" replied Lynch hotly. Ill umpire just as l think is right and if your players break the rules I'll punish them severely. If you will mind your own business I'll be much obliged I'm not afraid of ycu or any body else, and nobody but President Young can make me quit" The next day Lynch fined several of this club owner } players and put the manager off the field As he was leaving the grounds the magnates, all smiles. met him and said
 Mir. Lynch you're made of the right stuff Let me commend you for the nrm stand you've taken today
 ..Im glad you've changed your mind, sir snapped the king Of Inapires, as ne walked away the personilication of dig nity. Jack Doyle. the former New York and Baltimore player, who had several rows with Lynch on the ball field, said today:
 .Iynch is a man. He fears nobody and I take off my hat to him. The National league could not have made better se- lection. He'll keep baseball cleaner than ever before"
 President Lynch will take up his res- idence in this city immediately, so as to be in touch with the major league situation at all times.
 Triumph for Brush.
 Baseball men agree that the election of Lynch at the last moment was tri- umph for John T. Brush of the New York club. But those who have known Lynch eyer since the beginning of his career as an umpire are sure that Me Graw and the Giants will receive no fav- ors from the umpires. Brush has long regarded Lynch as an Ideal baseball leader.
 The New York magnates consulted Lynch many times in 1897 and 1898, priol to the introduction of the famous Brusf

FIGHT FOR
WATER CONTRACT.
North Arlington Council Makes
Award to Jersey City Company
After Protracted Struggle.

North Arlington's long fight over the
award OF its water contract ended last
night when the mayor and Borough
council decided to give the contract 10
the Jersey City Water Company. The
price was on a graduated scale, being
500 a million gallons up to 5000, goo a
day, and $40 per million gallons when as
much as 1000. 900 gallons are used
daily.
The resignation of Councilman Roll
and the subsequent appointment of
Walter Steup to fill the vacancy, made
the contract possible. the vote for and
against 5eing: For-Councilnen Nc
earthly. O'Hara. Fleming and Steup;
against-Councilmen Kingsland and
Stockton. Many citizens protested
against the giving of the contract be-
cause it was alleged proof had not been
given that the pressure was sufficient
to a,-ow water to come from Jersey
City 20 North Arlington or that the
water, so coming, would be pure.
The Suburban Water Company HAD
been trying for some time to land this
contract. their price being a fiat rate
of $3.50 per million gallons. In sup.
port of their action, the Mayor and
Council showed that by giving the con-
tract to Jersey City there would be a
clear saving to the city of $3.50 wher.
the amount of water used was 5000, 900.
and $3.50 per million gallons when the
supply amounted to 1900, 900 gallons.
The resignation of Councilman
George A. Roll was accepted with re-
gret, his reason being that he was
about to move from the borough.

KLEIN DESERTS
REGULARS RANKS
Former BeIleviIle ~Assemblyman
Says He Objects to Or
ganizatiOn's Methods.

The New Idea faction of the Republi-
can party secured a notable acquisition
today in former Assemblyman John n.
Klein, of Belleyilie. He made q formal
announcement today of his desertion
of the regular forces and his intention
to support the whole Colby ticket at
he coming primaries.
The former ~assemblyman was a
stauneh supporter of Major Carl Lent
when the latter made his last fight for
the Craftsmanship of the county COM
mittee. Klein was in the thickest of
the fray. He was a member of the
Republican County Committee for near
ly eighteen years. and for most of that
time was Republican leader in Belle
vile. He has not been so active IN the
last three years. He was in the Legis-
lature in 1899 and 1900.
In his announcement today of his
change of fealty. he stated that he had
always believed in the principles of the
Colbyites. In fact, he thought the
majority ~ Republicans throughout tht
county believed likewise. Like others
though. he objected to the methods
of the New ldeaites. Lately, however
the methods of the regular organiza.
ton had become as Objectionable al
the other side. he said. The machines
as organizations. are about equal. O
all the candidates of the several fac,
tons, he iked the Colby nominees best
Colonel Colgate. he says, is a gooG
man and had a fine record in the Leg,
islature. As to the candidacy of Rus.
sell for surrogate, the former assembly
man said that this had a lot to dt
with his desertion of the Regulars. II,
would not vote for him under any con
ditlons. he added.
Mr.. Klein sought the nomination 70
County Supervisor last fall. but wa
defeated by the present incumbent, Su
pervisor Baldwin. He was also a can
didate this yea for the Assembl.
nomination, but the Republican execu
tive committee in Belleville indorse'
Emil c. Mertz for the office. and whei
the latter declined Harold A. Mile
was named as second choice.
