nelson Pumyea is a candidate fer the
position Of treasurer of Northampton
township.
Robert t. Evans, Of Mount Laurel, is a
candidate for County Collector.
A. Engle Haines. of Lumberton, has
announced himself candidate for the Of
Zee Of County Collector.
The regular meeting of the Board Of
Freeholders should, under the rules, be
held tomorrow. but there appears to be
reasons for delaying it week. SO the date
has been changed to Friday the Goth.
Many surprises are said to await the
public when the Board of Freeholders
settles the business of the past year. One
Of the stories is that the floating indebted
ness win be Of such an amount as to
astound those who are really ready to be-
lieve almost anything.
The question has been asked why 1t lie
necessary to have county engineer as
there Is very little road buildingl done.
The answer Is that an act of the Legisla-
ture Of 1909 makes it obligatory to elect a
road supervisor and an engineer.
Already candidates are getting in shape
to try and succeed Thomas G. Shreve as a
member OF the Burlington County Board
Of Taxation. While this may not be any
business Of the Republican party. we can
not help paying tribute to Mr.. Shreve,
with whom we have been associated on
this Board since 1t was first organized.
We have no hesitancy in saying that he is
. valuable official, and his knowledge of
many affairs that have been brought to
the attention of the Board has been of
great value to this county. In efficiency
and attention to business are to be con.
sidered one would think Mr.. Shreve would
succeed himself.
That there is trouble brewing in connec-
ton with the organization of the new
Board of Freeholders is undoubtedly the
case, and from present indications the
oldtime custom Of selecting candidates by
caucus will be abandoned and there will
be free.for-aIl on the floor, as some Of
the members have announced their inten.
ton of not abiding by the caucus decision.
This seems to have been brought abou. by
the evident intention on the part of some
to force the reelection of Earl Thomson
az county engineer. There has been much
dissatisfaction with Earl's administration
and rumors which 1t Is said can readily be
fanserted into facts are floating In the air
With this situation before them some OF
the members thought 1t would be good
idea to select new man. To this, OF
course, Thomson and his friends entered q
strenuous objection, and fight has been
precipitated which will involve several
matters.

OFFICIAL ELECTION RESULTS UNKNOWN MaderO Himself Knows
 Nothing Definite REPORTS ARE SLOW Dispatches From All Parts of the Re- public Indicate the Absence

 Election
REPORTS ARE SLOW

Mexico City, October 2.-Within week perhaps Mexicans may have acquired q belief as to the identity of their new vice president, but not even Madero him. self can be certain who his lieutenant is to be until the third week in oeto- Der at the earliest. This will be after the electoral college, consisting of about 20.000 members, have voted and their ae- ton has been reviewed by the chamber of deputies.
 At the headquarters of the progressive party claims of an undoubted victory for Jose Pino Suarez were made, but the Catholics are equally confident of vic tory, in many cases claims of one party overlapping those of the other. Mean- while partizans of pr. Francisco Vasquez Gomez complacently state that both Cath olics and progressives are counting Vas quista. districts for their own. It appears reasonably certain that the federal district will send up majority of electors, who will be supposed to vote the Madero-Suarez ticket Vasquez Gomez admits this. It is denied by ths Catholics.
 As a matter of fact, there are polling places within two hours of the national palace that had not made their reports tonight.
 In reporting to headquarters party chlets are not sending in figures, but merely the flat statement that the party has been successful in their respective dis tricts It is not necessary under the law that the authorities report the vote to the government.
 The process outlined under the present clumsy electoral laws is that each elec- toral district sends its chosen representa- tive to the electoral college armed with his credentials These electors will bal lot in various parts of the republic oh October 15, the result of their action being sent bv mail to the chamber Of depud ss. On the assumtion that these electors win not vote in accordance with the de- sires of, their parties. the character | the vote might leak out before the tetfi tbut the party leaders, admitting that the l contest probably was close. frankly de- clare that they will continue their cam paisnl until the very day Of the meeting of the electoral college in order to pros elyte the electors of their rival parties l The press of the capital reflects the mystification that has followed the cleo ton With big type but few facts, the partisan papers declare the election U their chosen candidate but the indepenh- ent press publishes the same facts and admits the uncertainty.
 Dispatches to the department of the in- terior today from all parts of the re- public indicated an absence everywhere of disorders growing out of the election In Tehuantepec, according to meagre re- DOTIS. there occurred row aliSino from local dispute regarding the jefe politieo. Seven men were killed in a factional flght
 in the street. Another clash that e. suited in a few fatalities but which had nothing to do with the elections was thaz near the border line between Puebla ard Guerrero. when federal troops encoun.er- ed a small band of Zapaotista rebels.
