that Montclair could have a freebooter

CLUB MAY
SELECT WAITER
IN ASSE MI RACE
Special Meeting of Democratic
Organization Called to
Consider Matter.

The question as to which of the
West Hudson candidates for the As
sembly shall get the Endorsement of
the Kearny Democratic Association
will be settled in all probability on
Friday night. A majority of the exec
utive committee is said to favor Coun-
Gilman James j.. McAteer for the office.
At a meeting of the association last
night friends of Mr.. McAteer strongly
urged that body to declare in favor of
his candidacy. A resolution was in
troduced setting forth that he was the
choice of the club, stating his claims
and pointing out the fact that Kearny
had not been favored in fourteen years
by having one of its own citizens in
the Legislature. Mr.. McAteer was
present n spoke in his own behalf,
as did also several of his friends.
1t was contended that the club should
make an immediate Endorsement, mas
much as there was no other Kearny
candidate for the office mentioned, and
as a kearny man would find such in
dorsement helpful in his anvas of
the county, which would have to be
entered upon at once. 1t was contend
ed that time would BIZ lost in refer

require, to the executive committee,
but this course was finally adopted by
President Alfred l.. Moorshead. The
executive committee met after the
regular session and heard Mr.. McAteer
state his position, and 1t was decided
to report at a special meeting of the
association on Friday night to expe-
dite matters.
The executive committee consists of
Dennis Mcguire, Dennis Dunn. Jr.,
Samuel Meakem, Patrick Maher, James
Furphy, Daniel Desmond Edward j..
Bannigan, Ford E.. Suderley, James j.
McAviney, George Reed and William
r. Barry, A majority are known to be
now favorable to Mr.. McAatter, n 1t
is likely that a unanimous recommen-
dalton will be made that the club in
dorse Mr.. McAteer, who saw active
service at Trenton last winter as pri-
vate secretary to Speaker Edward
Kenny. He carried the Republican Sec
ond Ward of Kearny twice for coun-
Gilman with good majorities.

under police supervision for using
strong liquor, was knocked down by a
negro coal HEAVIER at the Lindsey coal
yards, in Lincoln avenue, Orange. last
night, and sustained a broken finger

of soft coal over Halls head as he
TODD talking to the negroes at work,
and, after wiping his eyes, the veteran
then jumped off the wagon, it is al

disastrous results.
Roundsman Graham and Policeman
Giordano were sent for and arrested
Lewis and also took Hall to the lookup,
after he had his wounds dressed at
Orange Memorial Hospital. Hall was
under the influence of liquor n the
police say he has been frequently
warned to behave himself.
Judge Bray told Charles A. Lindsey,
of the coal firm, however, that because
the veteran was a dlsorderly character
he was not open to attack, and then
held Lewis in $500 bail to await the
action Of the grand jury on a charge
of assault and battery Hall was sent
to Jail for six days for being intoxi-
Gated.
