BURLINGTON, N. J., July %
A fire at the Young America Hook
and Ladder Companys house has
fused into a renewed bond of friend
ship factions in the local fire depart
ment which had been split in the
wrangle over the selection of a chief.
Firemen forgot their squabble and
the threat of a strike of the volun-
teer fire fighters when they found
the home of fellow firemen burning.
There are yelled charges of in
cendarism in the origin of the fire.
The sudden burst of flames nearly
trapped four members, who were on
the second floor. An alarm failed to
reach the other fire houses, and an
investigation disclosed severed wires.
An alarm carried by Boy Scouts to
the Endeavor Company house sum-
moned the department to the scene.

The commissioners said that lease

way to be explicitly safeguarded.
I'VE cannot predict that at no time

as we can that an attempt to fix and
determine reasonable rates shall not
be obstructed by the plea that a

approved by this board is not open
to question:

revenue for northern New Jersey. be-
cause Secretary Tunulty and Senator
MARITIME are not favorable, comes the
announcement that Mr.. Cannon HIM
self is not particularly anxious for
the job.
Several friends of Mr.. Cannon were
here today and intimated that he is
perfectly willing to give up his
chances of the Newark office if he is
assured of another term as county
clerk of Middlesex.
According to the Jerseymen Mr..
E Cannon is resting on his oars to find
how the political tide is running. If
he can determine to a definite degree
that he will be able to succeed him
self as county clerk he will turn down
the job that Dr. H. C. H. Herold must
vacate. 1t was intimated that the

gubernatorial candidacy of former
Mayor H. Otto wittpenn, of Jersey

Mr. Gannon's decision. 1t will then
be shown to what a degree the party
is divided, and Mr.. Cannon can make
pretty fair guess on how he stands
for the denomination netx year.
Then, too, there is the question of
salary. The Middiesex county office
pays $500 a year, while the internal
revenue office yields only S4,50A
Another term in the office, with the
year that he still has, would give him
five years, at total salary of $27 500.
He might be retained in the Newark
Office. however. only until the next
Presidential election, if there is a
change in party, and he figures his
total income then would not have
reached $4,000. His Jersey friends
feel sure that he has a good chance
to be reelected in Middlesex and say
nat he would be foolish to sacrifice
$12.5o0
Mr.. Cannon is powerful factor In
Middlesex politics. His friends be.
1ieve that it would be political suicide

said that this is another reason why
he is hesitating.
