Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-08-08

cry man who went down to Sea Girt
yesterday from this city and New
Brunswick. He has spoken three
times in Perth Amboy, holding in
formal receptions on every OCCASION,
but his history making speech yes
terday afternoon on the erand OF
New Jerseys summer capitol was
none the less interesting to the Mid
dlesex county Democrats. 1t SEEM
ed like old times to hear him speak
again, although those who know his
oratorical abilities expressed much
regret-as did the governor-that
he was required to read from manu-
script.
Judge Woodbridge, of New Bruins
wick, is probably in set of mo-
ton pictures taken Of the scene. He
stood in front, a triie to n side,
of a large picture machine erected
in the center of the lawn. His fire.
quent smile >of pleasure, indicated
however, that he was enjoying the
governors remarks regardless of the
continual grind of the apparatus,
which could be heard owe the entire
grounds. A few feet in front OF Mr..
Woodbridge, towards the speakers
stand, a small fistic encounter oc-
Cured during the beginning Of the
candidates speech of acceptance.
One man showed another man and
then the fight started. 1t was quiet
ed before any loud rumpus was
raised.
Wilson and Ramsay Friendly.
After the exercises, DR.. Ramsay's
party inspected the grounds and met
such men as Joseph P Tumulty, pri-
vate secretary to Governor Wilson,
Mayor Wittpen and others prominent
in state politics. AS. DR.. jenkins
had never before heard or met Gov
ernor Wilson, the party formed in
line in front of the cottage and was
presented, in course of time, to the
states chief magistrate. Mr.. Wilson
greeted DR.. Ramsay with a friendly
smile and a How Nare you, Doctor"
which will probably set at rest all
idle rumors that good friendship does
not exist between the local physi-
clan and the governor. DR.. Ramsay
became a warm supporter of Mr.. Will
son while in the House of Assembly
two years ago.
Sheriff B~ollschweiler appeared to
an advantage yesterday at Sea Girt,
as he is personally acquainted with
nearly every Democratic politician
of any Importance in New Jersey.
One Of the many men of note with
whom he exchanged greetings was
Adj. General Wilbur F. Sadler, of
the National Guards, who had charge
Of the police details at the exer-
cises. General Sadler, it will be re-
called, came to Perth Amboy during
the heighth Of the great labor strike,
as personal representative Of Gov
crnHlumboh cspf1q volEiRSPPfdIb
ernor Wilson, and assisted Sheriff
Bollschweiler in settling the differ
ences between the local Industries
and their dissatisfied employees.
General D. F. Collins, of Elizabeth,
well known here, entertained the To-
cal delegation after the exercises at
the club house Of the New Jersey
on the grounds. General Collins was
accompanied by several we'll known
Union county politicians including
Edward F. Whelan, Joseph T. Hague.
and Edward j. Butler. After a plea
SAINT hour as the guests Of General
Collins. who was in Perth Amboy
on July 4, 1911, at a dinner given
by Sheriff. Bollschweiler, at that
time mayor of the city, in honor of
the safe and sane" celebration, the
noses of the autos were pointed
~homeward.
Stops to Get Gasoline"
A stop was made at prices" and
"Murphy's" at Pleasure Bay, where
many in the Perth Amboy delegation
appeased the inner man. Sheriff
Bollschweiler exchanged places at
this point with Mr.. Greger, who &C
companied DR.. Ramsay and his party
on an early trip to Perth Amboy.
A stop was made at Red Bank,
where a light lunch was enjoyed.
The real meal was enjoyed at the
Packer House, this city, after all
stains of the memorable trip had
been removed. The remainder OF the
Perth Amboy delegation reached
home at various hours, running
from s to IL o'clock. but nothing is
more interesting to relate than the
fact that Mr.. voorhees, and his
pathfinder party arrived here safe
and sound In time to see the light
ing of the Smith street white way"
One Accident Reported.
One accident to a Jersey party was
reported Mayor Wittpen's huge
automobile was struck by a trolley
car while en- route to Sea Girt, but
no one injured. The machine was
wrecked and the Jersey City mayor
and his friends were forced to hail
a coming car for assistance AS fort
une sometimes plays, the life say
ers" proved to be old friends, J. B.
Connolly and party from Newark.
Mr.. Connolly, who formerly resided
in Perth Amboy, gladly gave assist
ance to Mr.. Wittpen and the trip
was resumed. Congressman Thomas
j. Scully, of South Amboy, played
a prominent part in yesterdays af-
fair, but found time to welcome his
Middlesex county friends.
Many present yesterday remarked
on the similarity of the scene as com-
pared with that at Baltimore two
months ago. There stood the i'm
passive form of Ollie James, looming
up as the central figure Of a gather
ing of national Importance, COM
handing the respect Of the crowds
by his warn personality. Once, dur
ing Governor Wilson's remarks.
when Mr.. James raped on the little
table with his mighty fist for COM
plete silence, the men gathered there

heen in at Baltimore
