SCISSORS Mt salary of $1,000 per an
mum. Mr.. Record has been thorn in
the side of the Republican machine
leaders for years, and there is no man
In the progressive movement who Is
so cordially hated by them as he.
When he first came to Jersey City
from New England he was Democrat
and early understood the gigantic task
of reforming the old fashioned Demo
cratic machine of Hudson, which was

presidential candidate he Joined the
Republican party and became the right
hand counselor Of Mayor Mark NJ

the mayoralty of Jersey City. Mayor
| Pagan made him his corporation coun-

assured that enough senators would
vote to confirm him before his nomi-
nation went In. II appeared, however.
