the Essex county Republican chairman
Is fighting hard with an almost un-
limited dough barrel" behind him to
retain control of the eleven assembly
men, but it looks as if the people were
determined to punish them for their
insolency during the last session
Paster tricks of all kinds are being
resorted to in the hope OF saving the
Essex assemblymen from the wreck.
Mayor Haussling will unquestionably
be reelected by a plurality of 10000

Democratic Common Council
Expect 425.ooo Votes in State.
The total registration in the State is
close to 100000, and it looked at o'clock
as though more than 5000 votes would
be cast before the polls close at
o'clock tonight. There were 467,1I1 bal
lots cast in the last presidential cleo
ton, of which Taft received 2s5. .2ss and
Bryan 1882, the remainder being
scattered.

in Essex county $4,000 ballots and in
Hudson $1,000. A much larger vote is

100, 900 mark, while in the city of New
ark alone there are more than 6o.oeo
electors.
Returns VIII BE Late.
There win be considerable delay in
counting the returns tonight. not so
much because of the splitting of the
ballots, but because of the trouble that
will be found in the vote for the reduc-
ton of the freeholders and the civil
service proposition in both cities and
county. There seems to be little ques-
tion that the reduction of the freehot
ders is a popular one.
The police reports at 8 o'clock in New
ark show that quiet and order prevails
at all the polling places in the city.
But few arrests for illegal voting were
made.
Republican desperation was shown by
the intimidating methods employed By
Republican County Chairman Dal-
rymple bright and early this morning
At the polling place in the First dis
trict of the Fourth ward Dalrymple
tried to scare the Democratic workers
by shouting:
We've got this grand jury and wefrs
going to have the next grand jury with
US"
''You can't frighten us" retorted one
of the Democratic workers. and when
