ABBOTT SEEKING
ORANGE JUDGESH|P
Aid Society Agents Friends
Also Said to Be Working
in His Behalf.

Although declaring some time ago
that he was not a candidate for the
vacancy in the Orange Police Court
due to the resignation of Judge Jo-
seph b. Bray, it was learned today
that Augustus ". Abbott. agent of
the Children's Aid and Protective So
ciety of the Oranges. had asked Gov
ernor Wilson to appoint him for a
ive-year term.
Judge Daniel A. Dugan. who is
clerk of the Orange Police Commits
sion, denied a statement made yes
terday that the Orange Police Com
mission had held a meeting to in
dorse the aid society agent for the
job. Several of the members of the
body are out of town, it was said,
and the statement is said to have
been intended as a boost to the
agent.
For several months Abbott has been
acting as judge through some sort
of an arrangement with former Judge
Bray. and the sum he received as
Judge with his salary 81. 500 a year as
agent of the Children's Aid Society
have made his income quite sub
stantial. The police court pays
s., Zoo a year. and if the agent were
to hold both positions it is figured
he would receive 50, 700 a year.
Lawyers practising in the Orange
court have favored a member of their
profession, however, owing to the I'M
familiarity of laymen with legal re-
quirements. This has given rise to the
belief that a lawyer will be appoint
ed. Agent Abbott is a Republican,
and by his election as justice of the
peace in the Fifth ward has been able
to sit for Judge Bray.
Associates in the various societies
engaged in public charities have been
working in his interests. 1t is the
general impression in Orange, how
ever, that Edward l.. Davis will be
designated.

JAS. TAAFFE ENDS
EUROPEAN TOUR
President of Board of Educa-
ton Returns on Cedric After
Visit to british Isles.

James Taaffe, president of the
Board of Education, returned today
on the steamer Cedric after a sum-
mer tour of the British Isles. With
Mr.. Taaffe were his son, William ],
Taaffe, and his cousin, Frank and
Annie Callan.
At his home. 1853 Rooseville avenue,
Mir. Taaffe said on his return that
he was principally impressed with the
amount of rain that had fallen dur
ing their trip. Crops in England, he
said, were ruined by the abnormal
precipitation, and in Ireland and
Scotland it was almost as bad. Most
of the time Mr.. Taafe and his party
spent in travelling slowly through the
country. including a weeks trip in
Ireland on a jaunting cart.
They made fairly long stops, how
ever, at the principal cities. includ-
ing London, Glasgow, Edinburgh and
Belfast.

COUNCIL NOMINEES
PLEDGE SUPPORT
Assure Cooperation Will
Mayor in Event of Their
Election.

-Four of the five Democratic can
didates for the East Orange City
Council attended the meeting last
night of the Progressive Democratic
League in Eaton place and pledged
their support to Mayor Gregory in
case they were elected with him this
fall. The candidates present were
Charles Stillwell, of the First ward;
Bernard j.. O'Rourke, of the Third;
Charles B.. Clancy, of the Fourth, and
Oscar o. Glockner, of the Fifth.
Leon Albeit, of Hudson county, at
tended the meeting and delivered a
speech ~favoring harmony within the
party ranks. He felt assured there
would be no trouble for Governor
Wilson to carry the State and that
the Democrats should concentrate
their efforts toward electing Mayor
Gregory for a second term. The
mayor is an Independent candidate
and will have separate headquarters
in the city as he had W years ago
The ward candidates believe they
stand a good chance of being elected,
in case proper support is given their
cause by the workers, but the most
enthusiasm seems centered in the
Fifth ward. where there is a posi-
bility of a two or three-cornered fight
among the Republicans. The Demo-
Gratis last year were successful in
eleeting Councilman Lawless in this
ward, with the help of the Repub-
licans, and look for the same result
this year. 1t Is also being claimed the
chances look q little brighter in the
Fourth ward.
Mr.. Glokner says that the main
difficulty in the working out of prob
lens in the City Council at present
results from the fact hat many of
the members are unable to give their
full time to the work. He said he was
favored in this regard. as he had lots
of time to give to the duties, and
would follow this course in ease he is
elected.

days, Mr.. and Mrs. Carleton Wash
burn, whose marriage was governed
by a pre-nuptial contract providing
for the utmost personal freedom, de-
clare that marriage on this basis is a

self-respect, that we have a fuller,
broader love for each other than
other married people," Mrs. Wash

TURTON MAY WORK
AGAINST GREENE
Defeated Mayoralty Candidate
Said to Resent Alleged
Campaign Remarks.

In the political circles of Irvingtor
there Is considerable gossip as tc
just what attitude Police Recorder
w. Eugene Turton will take in the
present mayoralty campaign. He
contested the nomination in the
primaries against Councilman David
H. Greene, who defeated him by q
majority Of 121 votes.
During the campaign the recorder
frequently said in the of his
speeches that IL his opponent wor
put he would roll up his sleeves and
work for him. In a recent interview,
however, it is learned that the re-
corder has undergone a change OF
heart.
1t is understood that in the closing
hours of the campaign certain express
sions by Mr.. Green ~displeased
the latter and brought about the
that unless an apology is made
by Mr.. Greene to the recorder the
latter will not support him, and it Is
not unlikely hat he may throw his
support to Edward jacob, the can
didate for mayor on the Progressive
ticket.
