parole Horrell has been conducting a
barber shop in this city.
Horrell was positively identified to-
day as one of the robbers by Mrs.
Thomas Gleason of Stockton and Miss
Anita Gleason, two of the victims.
Thomas Gleason, also bound and
robbed, would not make a positive
Identification, though he declared Hor-
rell very strongly resembled one Of
the perpetrators of the crime.
Mrs. Lee Horrel was found by the
police this afternoon and taken to the
central station, but not detained, as
there was no evidence to connect her
with the crime of which her husband
is suspected.

Wolber added that Mr., Timm had
consulted DIR. Hexamer. president of

no man or set of men had any right to
indorse any political candidate and
claim to represent the organization as
the Hoboken men had done.
1t was finally decided that the mem

the candidates are whose liberal views
are unquestioned and vote accordingly.

SAYS WILSON WILL WIN
E. ORANGE BY 1000 VOTES,

Returning yesterday from a South
ern trip. Thomas r. Creole, a promi-
nent Republican of East Orange and
former Fairgrounds commissioner, an
bounced that he shortened his trip in
order that lie might get home to work
for Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic
candidate for governor. He predicted
last night that East Orange would give
Wilson ! 800 TO 1000 majority and sup
port the Democratic candidates for
Assembly. While Mr.. Creole was max
ing these predictions Howard Mar
shall, president of the Commuters
League of New Jersey, was at h Re-
publican meeting in Commonwealth
Hall, East Orange, lauding Mr.. Creede
as a playground commissioner.
East Orange. normally. is a Repub-
lican stronghold Mr.. Creede said, but
this year we are not going to be nor
mal--at least not politically. 1 have
been home but a few hours and have
talked already with half a dozen of
my neighbors who have been good Re-
publican followers for years. They say
they are going to vote for Woodrow
Wilson,
"They have asked me to arrange for
d iltttltlk llGl1 " eos so
leans. They want DIR. Wilson to adj
dress tina meeting. They want TO see
him, to hear his views and to know
what manner of man he is. They want
the meeting to be purely a Republican
one, and they are willing to guarantee
that it will be largely attended and as
enthusiastic a gathering as n Demo-
cratic audience he has addressed dur
ing the campaign.
East Orange, SO far as | can learn,
feels pretty much the same way about
the Assembly ticket. The Republicans
who live here are asking themselves
If any set of Democrats could be greater
political bunglers than the Republicans

ing to vote for him In fact, | am
going to vote for the best men. In my
opinion. for every Office.
Il consider DR.. Wilson better fitted
to become Governor of New Jersey
than his opponent, because he would
work for the people and not for a
political machine.

reelection of Mayor Haussling.
The mayor was present, and at the
end of thu speech-making walked
through the hall arm In arm with the
sheriff.
The sheriff said.
II want everybody to make himself
a poll committee of one, and get out
and elect Mayor Haussling by the
biggest majority he has ever had.
An unusual incident was the fact
that the chairman Of the committee IN
charge. Thomas j. smith. is the Re-
publican candidate for alderman. of the
Twelfth Ward, in which the church is
located. MI. Smiths opponent, Alder
man Albert II. Biertuempfel. was
among the Democratic candidates pres
ent. Spying him, DR.. Charles r.
Kraemer. who followed Sheriff Harri-
gan and Mayor Haussling, said, un-
conscious of the fact that B%iertuemp7
fels opponent was in charge of the at
fair.
And let's all try to reflect Mr.. Bier
tuempfel. too. If it were not for the
loyal support which h and other eff
cient Democratic office holders have
given the Mayor, Mr.. Haussling might
have a different story to tell of what
he had accomplished during the past
four years. Let's send him back by
the biggest majority he ever got"
Mr.. Smith laughed heartily at the
odd turn Of affairs. AS chairman. he
had volunteered permission to speak
ers to utter a few political thoughts"
II they were SO inclined. Sheriff Harri-
gan was the first speaker to touch upon
politics. After the forrnalities he locked
arms with Mayor Haussling and went
through the hall.
