Apparently every institution and or
ganization in Perth Amboy and South
Amboy had a friend or friends, who
had acquired the voting habit. The

EVENING NEWS Office from every
source asking mention in the contest

determined to enter the field of battle
for good books

tailor made suits and overcoats, 1t is
well to refer to the fact that the con-
test clothier, Mr.. BRIGGS, has on hand
the most attractive line of patterns and
samples they have ever shown 1t is
a well known fact that the workman
