DEMOCRATS ON OUTING
SLATE ASSEMBLY MEN
CONTINUED from page IL

ton at the primaries. The opposi-
ton, if there Is any, will be by Harry
Cook, another New Brunswick law
yer, who had an assembly petition
In circulation on the boat yesterday.
The petition was circulated about
town several days ago and received
a number of signatures. Mr.. Cook,
however, has not the organizations
support and has little chance of be-
ing nominated, the leaders declare.
The assembly slate was no sur
prise, as for some time it has been
generally understood that Ramsay,
Booraem and Streitwolf would be
the men. 1t was stated In yester-
days NEWS that they would proba-
bly, be endorsed. The republican
assembly candidates as announced
yesterday, who will be supported by
the county organization, are: John
F. Ten Brock, of this city; Arthur
V. Schenck, of New Brunswick, and
Rene P. Won Minden, of New Mar
ket. With the filing of the petitions
today, the time limit, the county
tickets of both parties will be com
plete, there being no other vacancies
this year.
Silzer Optimistic.
pVldbOt oItLCI WuCu dShSt, ytSLSl-
day, what he thought of his chances
for a gu~bernatorial nomination, re-
piled: Il think / have a good
chance, if the Middlesex delegates
stick to me. / am In the fight to win
or lose and under no conditions will
[ withdraw. There Is going to be
something doing at the convention
and whoever wins | believe will have
| had a -ha rI fOht KDtzonhnnh WI
son, Wittpenn and myself will each
have support, but I don't think any
of us on the first ballot will get
enough votes to win. There will
have to be a break and l don't want
1t to come from Middlesex."
County Chairman Thomas Hager-
ty is also optimistic over Mr.. Silzer's
chances and declares that the forty
three delegates will go to Trenton
from Middlesex solidly pledged for
the senator. Mr.. Hagerty says that
the organization throughout the
county Is even better this year than
last year, due to the continued eff
fosts of the committee since election.
The county leaders feel sure of Sill
zer's election if he is nominated and
declare that the democratic assembly
ticket In the county will win by a
large majority.
Excursion Crowd Jolly.
Socially, financially and political
ly the excursion yesterday was a de-
cided success. Not an accident oc-
Cured to mar the day and it tended
to bind the democratic leaders into
a stronger body. The steamboat
Howard Carroll" was to have car
ried the excursionists to the grove
but on account of an unforeseen
difficulty the "Glen" was pressed
into service. The boat left New
Brunswick with a large crowd of
county seat politicians aboard early
yesterday morning and proceeded to
South River, where Mayor Joseph
Marks and "a good representation
boarded. At South Amboy, the next
stop, Mayor Thomas Scully, Free
holder Alfred T. Kerr's band and a
big delegation embarked.
1t was after II o'clock when the
boat reached this city and took on
Mayor Bollschweiler and over 100
of Perth Amboy's prominent demo-
Gratis. Leaving here shortly before
11:30 o'clock the journey was con-
tinued to Roosevelt, where Mayor
Joseph Hermann and another crowd
of democrats Joined the ranks. The
trip to College Point was then made
without further stops, arriving at
the resort shortly before 2:30
o'clock. Headed by the band the
democracy of Middlesex marched TO
Donnelly's Grove, where a genuine
Rhode Island clambake was served.
There was entertainment during the
feast and following it the excursion
lists enjoyed the attractions in the
grove. Pinochle was a feature on
the boat. Joseph Fiigen and Will
liam Howley, of this city, who are
summering at Locust Grove, l.. l.,
near College Point, Joined the party
shortly after It's arrival.
While the outing last year was a
success the attendance yesterday
was double. Besides the four may
ors, County Clerk Bernard M. Gan
non, Surrogate Peter F. DAILY, Coun-
ty Engineer Fred Simons, Asbury
Fountain and most of the Board of
Freeholders were prominent In the
gathering. Mayor Bollschweiler, Of
this city, as usual, was greatly in

will be filed today.
