ITALO-AMER|CANS
MAKE CLAIMS ON
REPUBLICANS
Organizing for the Purpose
Throughout Newark and
Essex County.

AS the first step in a concerted move
ment on the part of a number of prom
inent italian American Republicans of
this city and Essex county to force
recognition from the leaders of the Re-
publican party, a tentative slate has
to be filled this year. and plans are
being made for a vigorous fight at the
primaries If necessary.
For a long time, the leaders of the
movement say, they have been asking
the party leaders for better recognition.
Last var they succeeded in having one
mar from their ranks placed on the
primary slate at the last moment. This
year, in reply to their requests for fur
Their recognition, they have been told,
last year and should be satisfied. In a
final conference last week between the
Republican Regular leaders and the
italian representatives no concessions
were made of any nature whatsoever,
SO the latter claim.
Yesterday, on an outing of the Roma
Circle, of Orange, a political organiza-
ton with great power among the Ital-
ian-Ameriean element, the leaders s'got
together and made up the following
slate:
For surrogate, P. NJ. Megaro; for
street and water commissioners, Do
menico A. Valentine and Antonio Pc
trone; for members of the General AS
sembly. Eugene Dotto, j. Victor D'Al-
ola, Joseph Federico, Paul Eppolito and
John D.. Biasi. The other vacancies on
the Assembly ticket will be soon filled.
The Italian faction is confident of the
support enmass of their countrymen.
In support of this, they claimt that the
many petitions they have been receiv-
ing from, all over the city and county
from the various political clubs show
the deep feeling behind the movement.
If the Regulars do not support their
ticket at the primaries, the order of
campaign will be to nominate their
entire primary ticket under the laws
OF 1898 by petition, to run them at
the polls, and in that n so knife
the Republican Regular ticket by the
withdrawal of the Italian support that
practically the whole of the Demo-
cratic ticket will go through. That
their strength is sufficient for this
there is no doubt, the leaders claim.
They have made several quiet automo-
bile inspection trips throughout the
county and city, visiting the Italian
centres, and have sounded the senti-
ment of their fellows. A solid backing
in all their efforts in the Italian Re
publican ranks is, as far as they can
determine, practically assured.

THE authority given to the President
to use agents to assist him in the appli-
cation of the maximum ard minimum
section of the statute and to enable
officials to administer the law gives a
wide latitude for the acquisition under
circumstances favorable to its truth of
information in respect to the price and
cost of production of goods at home and
abroad. which will throw much light m
the operation of the present tariff and
be OF primary Importance as officially
collected data upon which future ex-
ecutive recommendations may be based.
The corporation tax Is a just and
equitable excise measure. which it is
hoped will produce a sufficient mount
to prevent a deficit and which Incl
dentally will secure valuable statistics
and information concerning the MANY
corporations Of the country, and will
constitute an important step toward
that degree of publicity and regulation
which the tendency in corporate en-
terprise in the last twenty years has
shown to be necessary"
