Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1914-09-23

Bumps were given and received at
the primaries in Newark and Essex
county yesterday by the warning ele-
ments of the Republican party. The
timer circle" meaning those candi-
dates whom Thomas p. Alworth repre-
sented as fiscal agent, emerged from
the scrimmage with the lions
share of the plums, but lost two of
those most highly priced,
the Newark mayora1ty NOM
ination and the county surrogateship.
1t was disputed point for a time
this morning even whether or not
the "inners" had not lost out in the
shrievalty contest, Republican Can
didate Wallace V. Colby holding that
he instead of Ralph B. Schmidt was
the winner. The question of victory
rested between himself (Colby) and
Harry r. O'Connell This idea was
soon dissipated, however.
Late returns, supplied through the
medium of police bulletins and other
sources, early this morning indicated
that Schmidt had won by a safe mar
gin, with Colby second and O'Con-
nell third in the race.
The same medium nominated Fred
G.. Stickel, jr., for surrogate and
Thomas l.. Raymond. for mayor of
Newark. Both Stickel and Raymond
were in the Left Outs" class. Her
bert w. Taylor, chairman of the Re-
publican County Committee, was the
organization choice for surrogate,
while Andrew G. Snyder was o. KID
by the same body for the mayoralty.
Daniel r. Gaven, Scott German and
Francis Clark. candidates for surro-
gate on the Left Outs" ticket, re-
ceived the losers end of the eontro-
versy.
Essayed Difficult Task.
The organization entry for county
supervisor, Lewis Bowden. defeated
Ferdinand Roemmele and August
Soffel. who essayed the generally diff
fcult task of beating the organization
forces out.
Harrison. Lacombe and Malta,
backed by the inner circle for
freeholders had comparatively easy
sailing. as did the twelve assembly
candidates having county committee
sanction.
There never was any question as to
Austen Colgate for state senator. He
won in a walk. Richard Wayne
Parker is the white-haired boy in
the Ninth Congressional district, out
stripping two rivals by comfortable
margin. w. Lincoln Adams appears
TO have beaten out his most danger
ols competitor, Frederick r. Lehl-
bach. of this city, in the Tenth, while
in the eighth district Edward w. Gray
brought down the persimmon. His
closest rival, Arthur J. Archibald
ran on the Republican and on the
Progressive Roosevelt ticket. He will
be the Progressive nominee.
"Higb Jinks" with the MayoraIty.
High Jinks" was raised in New
ark over the mayoralty nomination
snyder was backed by the party or
ganization, while Raymond was left to
his own resources Raymond was re-
turned the victor and will be Mayor
Jacob Haussling's opponent.
Arthur r.. Denman and William
Tries. jr., the organizations favor
ties for the Board of Works nomi-
nations, outran Louis Pfeifer, John
II. Murray jr. and August j. Miller
and Oscar Block, who were among
the "left-outs.'' Pfeifer was third in
the race.
FOR time late last night a rumol
r-ained currency that in the Demo-
cratic contests, Frank Nd. McDermit
Fad defeated Richard Stockton fol
state senator, that William Harri-
ran had beaten John ]. Bracken fol
Sheriff and that Samuel Kalisch, 1r.
had taken Harry f. Backus's mum
Ter in the struggle for the surrogate.
