TOURING RUSH HOUR
Earth Slide at Ninth and Bank
Caused Temporary Suspen-
sion of Cars.

Serious slides Of earth in the eXca-
vations for the new Rueser Hotel
caused the temporary closing OF Ninth
Street to traffic yesterday afternoon
about o'clock, just at the time the
uptown movement was heaviest. The
slides were under the sidewalk on
the Ninth Street side Of the new es-
cavation. and were apparently IN
creased by the vibration OF each pass
ing car. Passageway along that side
Of the street was closed by the contra.-
tors, and, fearing a repetition OF the
disastrous Eighth Street slide. the
Police Department closed the entire
street to traffic. After heavy beams
had been placed to prevent further
collapse. Building Inspector Beck or
dered the removal of the barrlcades.
and street car traffic was resumed
shortly before s o'clock. WITHIN
few moments after the barricade was
erected, General Manager {. b. buch-

Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-08-31

II think that the city of Perth AM
boy needs man of Thomas F.
Burke's calibre for mayor" said
Thomas Brown this morning when
asked if he thought Mr.. Burke would
be candidate for the mayoralty
nomination. "The city at the present
time is too fertile q field for the pro-
fessional politician. There is too
much opportunity for wrong doing
and everyone knows that such politi-
clans have no interest in the welfare
of the community. He is an unnec-
essary adjunch to the progress of the
city and he is non-producer in the
interest Of the taxpayers.
Il am pleased to note the interest
taken by the NEWS in the recent
ferry project which, in my opinion,
was most serious. Perth Amboy is
developing in every respect, conse-
quently the professional politician
will find grand opportunities for
double dealing not only in ferry mat
tiers, but in police and fire depart
ments and other branches of the
city's work. What the city needs, in
my opinion, is a man who is thor
oughly honest, one successful in pri-
vate life and who will have the in
'erest of the city at heart. Such a
man is Thomas F. Burke. A univer-
sally respected citizen and a man of

staunch honesty and integrity, who
would not bow down to the dictates
of political porch climbers.
'Mr. Garretson has made an envfa-
BILE record as a public office holder
and 1t would be loss to have him
out of office. What we want is more
Garretsons and less politicians.
There is matter of vital import
ance to the wage earners and factory
workers in the coming campaign.
There Is no doubt that the Work.
mems Compensation act will be
amended at the coming legislature
as at the present time it is crude In
its construction. Every man, woman
and child of this city is vitally in
terested in any change the legislature
may make along this line. From what
l understand there Is man aspiring
for a state office who at the present
time is on almost every pay roll of
the various corporations in this city
and who has in the past been a me-
mace to the workers welfare. Fancy
the representation and protection
this man will give the workers well
fare, if elected, especially in the
amendment of the compensation act.
arthur A. Quinn, who is seeking
the nomination for assembly on the
Democratic ticket, is deserving Of
every mans support, as the next ses-
sion of legislature will need such
men as Mr.. Quinn to guard the In
terests of the local wage earners.
Il will do all IN my power to have
Mr.. Burke enter the field. With Mr..
Burke as mayor and Garretson alder
man-at-large, riparian rights, fire and

provements will be in honest and safe

CIVIC UNION IS
IN EXCISE RACE.
Has Placed Men in tho Run
ming for Republican
Nomination.
ONLY ORGANIZED EFFORT
Large Number of hspirants
All Struggling Individually
for the Nomination.

The only effort thus far to bring
order out of chaos in the free for all
race for the nomination of an excise
board, has been made by the Civic
Union which has been organized for
the sole purpose of studying excise
conditions in the city, to reduce the
number of saloons and protect the
laboring man from the liquor deal
ers and the brewery trust. The
Civic Union now has five men in the
field for the nomination of excise
commissioner on the Republican tic
ket. All of these men are of non
partisan leaning and are little known
in politics. In fact, were it not for
their petitions, the average citizen
would not know VIII ether they were
Republican or Democratic.
Lawyer Peterson, who Is chairman
and prime mover In the Civic Union,
informed NEWS reporter today
that the i've candidates of the
p from both parties If nominated, and
expect to work for the best interest
of the city, If elected. Mr.. Peterson
states that the candidates of the
Civic Union enter the race at a sac
iISC VI Iiillo anu pcISOUdl lS0lluSS,
which will be further set forth in
letter now in course of preparation.
The candidates are: Daniel w.
Boehm, T. D. Waring, j. D. Land,
who have already been mentioned,
and Harry Germs, of the New Jersey
Terra Gotta Company, and Michael
Seaman grocer, of Washington
and Division streets.
The petitions indorsing candidates
for excise board nominations, along
" tn other city petitions, must be
filed with City Clerk Wilbur LaRoe
not later than closing time of his
office at city hall on Wednesday,
September 4. A number of petitions
have been filed with City Clerk La
Roe, but several have held their
documents in reserve in the interest
of harmony in their party, or per-
sonal reasons.
At one time the non-partisan
board seemed assured, as the Demo-
Gratis expected to exert every effort
to this end but the snuabble over
the mayoralty nominations has given
Athe leaders plenty to think and talk
about, to the expense of the nom
PARTISAN idea. The Civic Union has,
in measure, carried out this idea,
kalth0ueh all five Of its candidates
e classed as Republicans. These
ndidates declare that they enter
lie race at the earnest requert of
their fellow-mer Iers in the Union,
and will run on the platform of bet
ter excise conditions In Perth Am
boy. The Civic Onion candidates
increase the number of the aspirants
on tn, Republican ticket to about
fifteen.
