B. F. s. BROWN
FOR CONGRESS
Mata, an and Keyport Editor
Would Oppose Thomas J.
ScuIly This Fall.
HAS HIS PETITIONS OUT
Is a Progressive But Will
Stand on the Regular
Republican Ticket.

Benjamin F. s. Brown, editor and
proprietor of the Matawan Journal
and the Keyport Weekly, announced
today that he is candidate for the
nomination to congress on the regu-
lar Republican ticket, to oppose Con-
gressman Thomas J. Scully, Demo-
crat, of South Amboy, who Is out for
reelection. Mr.. Brown, who resides
in Matawan, has two petitions in
circulation in each of the three
counties in the second district, Mid
dlesex. Monmouth and Ocean, and
expects to file same on Saturday.
In announcing his candidacy. Mr..
Brown calls attention to the fact
that he is a progressive Republican,
but believes that the factional fight
in that party should be fought out on
another occasion than election day.
He declared that he would not have
entered the race If former Judge Ad-
rian Lyon, Of this city, or any other
progressive Republican, had con-
sented to accept the nomination. Mr..
Brown will petition the secretary of
state to have six words placed on
the ballot opposite his name, indi-
eating that the Matawan candidate Is
the nominee of the regular Repub-
lican party. Mr.. Brown has support
ed the progressive movement for
many years and was one of the origi-
nal Colby men in this section.
AS Is the case with Congressman
Scully, Mr.. Brown is a warm sup
porter of the deeper waterways
movement. He has been highly hon
ored In this respect by recognition OF
hiS O ohi1ttu I'M 10 n i'm.
portant state commissions by two
governors of New Jersey. He was
named by former Governor j. Frank
lin Fort, during the latter's term In
office, as member of the commits
sion which investigated the advisa-
bility Of purchasing the right of way
across the state for the proposed In
ter-costal ship canal The commits
sion recommended the appropriation
OF 100000 with which to purchase
the right Of way, which report was
adopted. This amount was later ap-
propriated by the legislature and the
necessary real estate holdings ac-
Quired.
This appointment was followed by
recognition of Mr.. Browns fitness by
Governor Woodrow Wilson, a Demo

Keyport editor as member of the
delegation which represented New
Jersey at the deeper waterways con-

tion at Philadelphia in January, last,

mission which will represent New
Jersey at the rivers and harbors con-
gress at New London, Conn, in
September.
Mr.. Brown was born in Keyport
fifty-six years ago and has made his
home ever since in either Keyport or
Matawan. He acquired the owner
ship of the Matawan Journal many
years ago and pushed that paper to
the front with remarkable success
In 1906 he purchased the control OF
the Keyport Weekly and has been
