ATLANTIC FOR
THE COMMISSION

Atlantic City, N. J., May 1.-THE
Commission plan of government was
adopted by the voters of this city to-
day BY a margin of 122 votes out of
6486 votes cast. 1t was only necessary
to have half that number of votes
cast, and majority of that half would
have carried the election.
AS soon as the result became known,
there were rumors as to who would
be the commissioners. The names of
Malcolm B. Woodruff, police chief,
was most prominently mentioned.
Others We're City Treasurer Albert
Byer, Councilman Cuthbert, former
Councilman William Riddler and May
or Bacharach.
There will be about fifty candidates
at the primary, June II, at which time
all but ten will be eliminated The
ten highest will then be voted for
July 8, at which time five of the ten
will be selected as commissioners.

ROOSEVELT
WINS CALIFORNIA
Carries the Golden Gate
State.
VICTORY IS DECISIVE.
20, 900 Votes at Least Will Be the
Majority in the State for
Colonel Roosevelt.

San Francisco, May 14.-Theodore
Roosevelt has won in the Presidential
primaries held in California today,
according to returns received in this
city up to 8 o'clock tonight. From
every Congress district the story is
the same, and some estimates make
his lead at least 10000 votes.
In all sections Roosevelt received
a substantial plurality. In some Sec
tions Taft was helped by the unex-
pected showing male by LaFollette,
although the total vote polled by the
latter throughout the state is small.
The women turned out ins large
numbers, an in some sections of the
state, notably in Riverside, outnuh-
bered the men at the polls. At 9
o'clock tonight, ninety precincts COM
plete in San Francisco give Roosevelt
1892; Taft. 3,2O5; LeFollette, 1885;
Clark 1,423: Wilson, 603.
In Los Angeles sixty-two precincts
complete give Roosevelt 3,43S; Taft,
Lila; LaFollette, S43
Returns from San Bernardino, Riv-
erside, Santa Barbara, Fresno, Bak-
ersfield and other centres of the
southern part of the state give Roose-
velt an overwhelming lead, with La
Follete a bad third. The northern
counties, from incomplete returns, are
all for Roosevelt. In Alameda Coun-
. ty, Roosevelt has beaten Taft by at
least 10 900 votes.

THOUSANDS OF
TICKETS PRINTED

The Pioneer presses are turning out
many thousands of election tickets to
be used in the City of Brid8eton and
in many of the townships. The sam
pie official ballots are being run off
so that the various municipal clerks
can make the distribution on Tuesday
next to the election officers. One
week from today the various precinct
election officers must mail to each
registered voter a sample ballot of
each political party.
The ballot is printed TO conform
with the new law, with the square for
marking the voters preference at the
left of the name rather than upon the
right as heretofore. Owing to the
many names that appear upon the
ticket, the official ballot will be the
largest that has ever been used in this
county.

ter explained that the purpose OF the
meeting was to promote the candidacy
of Mr.. Roosevelt; that the meeting was
| not political in the usual, and accept

thereto, an executive committee, n
nance committee and membership
committee These committee to be
selected by Wards-two or three from
each.
The meeting Immediately proceeded
with the election of officers. For

WILSON WON'T
STUMP new JERSEY

Trenton, May 14.-Following a con-
ference with his advisers today, Gov
ernor Wilson decided not to stump the
state in the soming primary campaign
for the election of delegates to the
Democratic National Convention. The
Governors advisers, it said, are so
confident that he will carry the Demo-
cratic primaries that they feel his
presence on the stump is unnecessary.
There were some persons here, how
ever, who ventured the opinion that
with President Taft and Colonel
Roosevelt stirring things up, Governor
Wilson would be lost sight of, and
that it would not help his prestige by
taking part in campaign that did not
promise large audiences.
The Wilson supporters, however,
have organized a large corps of spell
binders, which will be turned loose
in couple of days. In the last week
of the campaign they will have some
help from the outside Among the star
orators who will tell the Democrats of
New Jersey why they should select
delegates favorable to the nomination
of the Governor will be Senators John
Sharp Williams, of Mississippe, and
Thomas P. Gore, of Oklahoma.

The members of City Council met
last evening in an informal session to
discuss a number of matters which
are shortly to come before them for
Legislative action.
The meeting was not called for any
public discussion of these matters, but
as it resulted. there was considerable
of the evening taken up with the prop-
osition to light the down town streets,
as proposed by the Merchants Asso-
citation
The members of the association were
represented to the extent of about a
score, and they presented their claims
for recognition, to the extent of hav-
ing their lighting scheme adopted
President Glaspell, of City Council
statde to the gentlemen present, that
their visit, while appreciated, was en-
tirely unexpected, and that council
was not prepared to discuss it to the
length that they desired, for the rea-
son that figures which they desired
had not been compiled
Since the gentlemen were present
the meeting was thrown open to them,
and several of the merchants present
addressed COUNSEL in favor of the pro-
ject Among the speakers were H. A
Haffer, President, and John M. Laning,
Secretary, of the association, together
with John M. Stiles, Fred F. Smith
and others.
Following the arguments advanced
by the merchants, council stated that
personally the members had been ap-
preached by small property owners
who had advanced objections to the
plan of placing fixed lighting charge
on the city of this character, claiming
that it was class Legislation, and that
the tax burden was already becoming
