TO MAKE FIGHT
IN Sd DISTRICT
M. F. Ross Is at Work Ar
ranging Anti-WiIson Ticket
for Primaries.
RUNYON AND B0GARDUS
Candidates Mentioned But
Runyon Cannot be Reached
--Bogardus Non CommittaI
RUNY0N ,AND BOGARDUS

There Is every indication now that
a Smith-Nugent ticket will be put in
the field in this district at the prl-
maries next month, in an effort to
defeat Governor Wilson. Smith has
a close friend in Millard F. Ross, of
New Brunswick, who has been con
sidered the Democratic leader in
Middlesex and it is understood that
Ross has taken up the cause of
Smith determined to make q last
stand in his behalf.
w. Parker Runyon, who is closely
associated with Ross in politics, has
already been mentioned in these
columns as a probable candidate for
delegate on the anti-Wilson ticket.
1t is reported that the other dele
gate will be Dr. o. c.. Bogardus, of
Keyport. as representing the Smith
men in Monmouth.
Mr.. Runyon could not be reached
today. 1t was stated at his office
that he was still on vacation and
would not be back until the middle
of next week. 1t is declared, how
ever, that he was in conference with
Ross in New Brunswick yesterday.
DR.. Bogardus was reached by tele-
phone at Keyport. He was asked
whether or not he would become an
antiWilson delegate at the prima-
ries IN May. In reply he declared
that he had not made up his mind
one way or the other. He said he
had not discussed the subject with
anyone and did not know that his
name had been mentioned. He re-
IN of nj Ia CT n
ment regarding the probability OF
his becoming candidate.
There Is also some doubt as to
whether or not Mr.. RunyOn will al
low his name to be used. If he re-
fuses to make the run It Is said that
Samue! Schleimer, q lawyer living
in New Brunswick, but having
Offices in Elizabeth, will be chosen.
This action on the part of Millard
F. Ross makes a complete split In
the Democratic ranks in MiddloseX
as far as Wilson Is concerned. The
new and progressive leaders In the
party, including County Clerk B. M.
Cannon, County Chairman Thomas
H. Hagerty. Judge Peter f. DAILY and
City Chairman Richard f. White, of
Perth Amboy, are known to be
avowed Wilson men. Congressman
Thomas j. Scully, of South Amboy,
has consented 10 run .as -WilsoH
delegate along with State Senator
John w. Slocum, OF Long Branch.
This means that all the active work
ers IN the Democratic ranks In Md
dlesex are out for Wilson and 1t
looks like the downfall Of Ross RS
the recognized party leader.
1t is understood that the Ross
men practically admit that they can
not win, but their loyalty to Smith
leads them to at least make the best
showing possible. 1t Is practically
conceded in political circles that the
Wilson delegates will be elected.
The Smith forces have been back
ing the Champ Clark boom in this
state, but Clark has refused to allow
his name to be placed on the primary
ballot. 1t IS now planned to have
the antl-Wilson delegates run unin-
structed and to have the voters write
in the name of Champ Clark on the
primary ballots.

TRADE BOARD
TO Get $500
Aldermen Make Decision in
Committee Session Last
Night--To Advertise City.
POLICE PENSIONS LIKELY
Start Action Again for Con-
veryPiace Extension--Deie-
cation of Residents.

The Board of Aldermen at its
committee session last night decided
10 give the Board of Trade $500
with which to advertise the city; to
start the proposition Of extending
Convery Place all over again by
acting through the city attorney; and
practically decided to adopt a police
pension law in this city. The city
fathers also decided on purchasing
hose and a Hart nozzle to be used
as a water tower in connection with
the new aerial truck.
Committee from Trade Board.
A committee from the Board Of
Trade appeared before the aldermen
last night and told OF how the board
proposed to spend the money for ad-
vertising the city In the best way
possible. The aldermen decided to
provide for the appropriation in the
coming June budget. They were In
formed that the Board of Trade
would use it to conduct a vigorous
mail scheme of advertising Perth
Amhoy and to erect signboards and
display posters for the same purpose.
A number Of residents Of the
northwestern parts of the city ap-
peared at the committee session and
asked that the proposition of extend
ing Convery Place be pushed with
all speed. The city fathers decided
that the best course was to begin
anew and have the subject handled
in a thoroughly legal manner by Sc
curing the services of the city attor-
nev former special counsel, James
s. Wight, having been discharged by
the board.
Favor Police Pensions.
Every alderman seemed In favor
of granting pension list to the
policemen of the city. Efforts are
under way to have matters so ar
ranged as to introduce the subject
IN an official way at the council
meeting to be held Monday night
The aldermen viii Investigate the
provisions of q referendum declared
to have been passed this year.
Reports on proposed new pave
mentg were heard last night and IT
was decided to continue them until
Monday night. SO many appllca-
tions are before the aldermen that
they are In a quandary as to where
to start.
Action was taken to have an as
nhalt pavement laid on the sidewalk
in front Of the entrance to the ne"
Liberty frehouse In Wayne street.
