s HORSES BURN
AT ROOSEVELT
Stable and Warehouse Of
Mayor Joseph A. Hermann

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Roosevelt, Feb. 2e:-Six horses,
several hundred chickens, together
with eight tons OF hay. much build
ing material and several contracting
implements we're consumed when
fire destroyed the stable and ware
house of MayorfJoseph A. Hermann,
in Woodbridge avenue, last night .
The damage aggregates $4,000 and
this is covered by insurance. 1t Is
believed the fire started from defec-
tive insulation ON an electric light
wire.
The fire. occurred while Mayor
Hermann was attending a confer
ence of borough officials 1t was
discovered by a passerby about $3.50
O'Clock. He a to the headquarters
of FIRE company No. 2 and summoned
aid by crying fire. Firemen and
other residents did good work and
saved adjoining buildings. The fact
that the burning structure was To-
Gated about a hundred feet back of
the handsome two-story brick resi-
dence of the Hermann family, saved
the latter building. Vain efforts
were made to save all OF the live
but the fact that several toms
of hay were .afier prevented firemen
from getting out all Of the horses
and chickens.

Ocean Boulevard Matter Dis
cussed by Committee.
Special to tho EVENING NEWS.

Atlantic Highlands, Feb. 2e-
Two hundred citizens of Bedford,
Keansburg, Atlantic Highlands,
Highlands and Seabright assembled
here last night in the borough cham
bers and discussed methods to raise
an additional $4,000 forSth Ocean
boulevard to meet the deficiency ex-
listing between the amount appro-
priated by the state, county, borough
and township and the lowest bid re-
ceiyed at a recent meeting of the
Monmouth County Board of Free
holders, $29,169.
Three plans were selected. The
first was to petition the state for an
extra appropriation of $1,000 and
the county OF a like amount; sec
endly, to petition the state for the
entire amount, $4,000 to be paid
by July 4, thirdly, start work fmme-
diately and continue until the $780,
600 on hand is expended. The state
has appreae dated SO eco; county,
$4,000; Middletown township, ST.
600, and Atlantic Highlands, $1,000.
The extra cost, it ia declared, can
be attributed to the amount of grad
ing necessary and large retaining
walls necessary along Hilton Park
lands, which are the highest points
on the Atlantic coast, south of
Maine, it is claimed.
Following was the committee APP
pointed to take the matter up today

HOW WILL PRESIDENTIAL
ELECTORS GET ON BALLOTS?
The Primary Law Apparently Makes Provision for This
Important Office.

The question of how the names
of presidential electors are to b,
gotten upon the official ballo
this year is one that is said to b,
greatly agitating the politicians
of both parties at Boise. The
primary law under which al
other candidates get their names
upon the ballot, by some strange
oversight of the legislature, has
failed to say a word about pres
idential electors. There are meth
DDS provided for United States
senators, congressman, governor,
auditor, secretary of state and
all other state officers; the way
is clearly designated whereby
candidates for county commission
er, members of the legislature,
judges, sheriffs, county recorders,
and all other county officers may
get ON the official ballot, but
there is not word about pres
idential electors, so it is said.
AS is generally known voters
at the polls in November, do not
vote directly for president-there
will be no votes for Taft or for
Roosevelt or for Calrk or for
Bryan or for Wilson, even should
two of these men be named as
the presidential candidates, one
for the republicans and the other
for the democrats, but the names
of four men should be placed at
the head of the republican col
umn and four at the head of the
democratic column and whichever
of these four received the larg-
est number of votes would cast
Idaho's ballot for president.
But how are these eight men,
four republicans and. four demo-
Gratis, to get their names on the
ballots? Who shall pick them
out and who shall certify them
to the proper officers so that
their names shall be printed on
the official ballots for the Nov
ember election9
In July the people of the state
will go to the polls and vote for
various nominees. The republi-
cans will vote to determine who
shall represent that party and
the democrats will vote to deter
