Ovation for HnussIIng.

Mayor Haussling was given similar
ovation when he told the hearers Of his
past administration and solicited their
votes for a third term
There were many speakers in rapid
succession. The two candidates for
Congress from the Seventh and Eighth
Districts, Edward w Townsend and
Walter l. Mccoy, respectively, made a
great impression.
Mr.. Townsend dwellt upon the i'm
morality of licensing great corporations
to enable them to tax the public to pay
the dividends on their watered stock.
Mr.. Mccoy denounced Cannon and
Cannonism and acc Ised his opponent
on the Republican ticket of having
been affilated with the Cannon inter-
ests. He showed in a plain way that
the high protective tariff Was of no
benefit to the wage earners, but ena-
bled the corpora tions to fatten on
enormous profits at the consumers eX-
pense.
Mayor Haussling, who was intro
dueed by DIR. Charles f. Kraemer, the
chairman of the meeting, as the man
who has to contend with a Republican
Common Council and a Republican
Board of Works, but had ingratiated
himself into the hearts of the people
was roundly cheered.
II can point to my record during the
four years which I have been Mayor of
this city," he said. 81 want to repeat
what / have said in my platform, that
the meadows, if reclaimed will be the
largest asset the city ever had and will
bring large income.
"It is not necessary to call attention
to the fact that I am for home rule
now and all the time The valuable
market property in the centre of this
city could be made better use of. An
other thing Is the congestion on Broad
and Market streets, which will have to
be done away with. What good Is it to
us if we can come from New York in
nine minutes only to be held up at
Broad and Market streets for over half
an hour? Nobody needs to be ashamed
of the Democratic ticket and every
body can vote for it with sincerity.
Patrick ]. Ryan, candidate for the
Board of Works, spoke about the ne
cessity of minority representation in
that board and better public baths in
this city.
He was followed by Police Judge ST.
mon Hahn, who pleaded to his hearers
to support the entire Democratic ticket
and broke a lance for Mayor Hauss-
ling.
Former Mayor William II. F. Fielder
addressed the crowd briefly and touched
the topics Of pl evious speakers He
said Mr.. Mccoy was the only one of
them whom he never had known, but
that after hearing his speech he was
confident that he would be elected.

John Otterbein, former county super
visor. also appealed to the audience to
vote the Democratic ticket from the
standard bearer, Wilson, down to the
last ward officer, and Harry ]. Hull
candidate for register of deeds, added
similar appeal and admonished them
to forget all primary differences. Job
H. Lippincott, president of the State
Federation of Democratic Clubs, made
an eloquent address and said that a
Public Utility Commission with power
to regulate rates would be the first ac-
complishment of the next Democratic
Legislature.
Frank A. Boettner and Frank P.
Shalvoy, candidates for the Assembly.
rehearsed the workings of the last
out their platform and the records of
the Democratic Essex delegation at
Trenton in 1906.
Alderman Elmer A. Day urged the
election of a Democratic Common Coun-
Gil for the benefit of the taxpayers and
Frank Diener, candidate for alderman
in the Second Ward, introduced him
self in his first political speech to the
audience.
A telegram from State Chairman
