HERMAN ANNOUNCES
STAND ON COUNTY ISSUES.
Arraigns Republicans for Their
Mismanagement.

With an arraignment of the acts of
the Republican administration, Peter
]. Herman, Democratic candidate for
freeholder to represent South Orange
village and township, today announced
the platform Hpon which he expects to
be seated In the county board. The
employment of incompetent and neg
lectful help in institutions, the mis-
appropriation of funds and failure to
keep the county roads in proper con-
dition are some of the charges made in
his declaration.
Mr.. Herman criticizes some of the
acts of the Republicans in South Or
ange, one in particular being the re-
paving of the stretch leading from
South Orange avenue to the Lacka-
wanna railroad station with cobble-
stones. According to the Democratic
offlce-seeker the gutter is no better
now than 1t was before the work was
done. This, he declares, was an un-
necessary expenditure of about 5000.
With proper overseeing. Mr.. Herman
said. the work could have been done
properly for that amount of money.
The employment of a foreman to look
over gang" consisting of one is also
charged against the Republicans.
LAS a member of the New Jersey
Road Horse Association / have always
favored good roads," he said. 1.-THE
condition of some of the roads just at
present, however, is anything but good.
Springfield avenue. for instance, from
Valley street through the Hilton sec
tion. is in a disgraceful condition.
There are heaps of mud and large holes
in the roadway, making 1t very un-
pleasant for driving, as well as for the
comfort of residents who live and walk
along the thoroughfare."
The condition of South Orange ave-
nue., particularly In the business sec
ton OF the village, comes In for critl-
cism
"The undesirable conditions have ex-
listed In county institutions and brought
to light through the newspapers are
anything but creditable, and pledge
that should I be elected I will make a
firm stand for efficiency in the man
agement of all public institutions" the
candidate concluded.

HARRISON MAYOR
PLACES BAN ON
LURID POSTERS
Newark Company Tears Down
the Objectionable
Bills.

Mayor Joseph P. Riordan, of Har-
rison, was highly indignant when he
learned last night that thea trical pic
lures of a suggestive nature and harm
full both to the eyes and minds of the
young, had been pasted upon bill
board at the corner of Harrison ave-
nue. and John street, Harrison. The
Mayor at once communicated with the
police and instructed Chief Rodgers to
see that the lurid pictures were torn
down today.
The Newark Bill Posting Company
which concern places the posters, must
have learned of the Mayors instruc-
tions, for bright and early today rep
resentatives were in Harrison. and
they covered the offensive pictures
with others with which no fault could
be found.
Chief Rodgers visited the board this
morning, and, to his complete surprise,
found posters bearing tolerable pic
lures, instead of the alleged objection
able ones he had been complained to
about. The chief reported the matter
to Councilman Clarence r. Van Deren,
chairman of the police committee of
the Harrison Common Council, who
said today that he would communicate
with the bill posting people and inform
them to place no more offensive posters
on town boards.
Some years ago tie Harrison Coun-
ell began a crusade against the lurid
pictures, and they had not appeared
in the town until recently. Mayor
Riordan in discussing the matter to-
day emphatically stated that he would
not tolerate such pictures on the
boards of the town and would here
after keep close watch upon them.
