Essex County Vote Shows Fall

Analysis of Tuesdays election re-
turns shows that the Republican AS

and 800 votes over 1914 in Essex coun-
ty, and that the Democratic Assem-
bly, vote fell off between 1000 and
$500. The Progressive vote all but
disappeared, but its logical successor,
the Independent Citizens ticket,
polled an average of more than 5000.
The Progressives in 1914 ran some
what above 5000.

Democrats MAY
START A NEW
ORGANIZATION
CilIen BacI.ers May Challenge
on State Commit
teeman.


An organization having vital ef-
feet upon the future OF the Demo-
cratic party hereabouts and perhaps
challenging the latter's present lead
ership in Essex county may result
from the recent successful campaign
of Board of Works Commissioner
Charles p. Gillen. The nucleus of
such an organization exists in the
body that aided the Gillen candi-
dacy.
A meeting of the Gillen campaign
committee viii be called later in the
month, it was stated today, when the
continuance and broadening of the
organization formed in the interests
of Mr.. Gillen's reelection will be dis
cussed. Mr.. Gillen gave no light to-
day upon his personal attitude toward
the proposition He admitted that
the retention Of the organization had
been urged by many of those active
in it, who were anxious of enjoying
one another's companionship in q so
cial body of some sort. Their asso-
citation during the campaign had been
most pleasant, he said. but the bust
ness in hand prevented the social in
tercourse many enjoyed
Mr.. Gillen remarked that he had
left his candidacy at the general cleo
ton up to a gathering of his friends,
ninety of them, in fact, and that he
would leave the continuance of the
campaign organization in the hands
of others likewise.

BANKRUPT BUYS
Off SETTLEMENT

How a bankrupt bought off the op-
position to a composition settlement
In the bankruptcy matter of Barnet
Kantor, who formerly conducted a
furniture store at 66 Market street,
was set forth before Referee Charles
M. Mason in the Bankruptcy Court
today.
G. F. Bartour g. Co., wholesale fur
niture dealers, of Philadelphia, who
hold a claim of $700 against the bank
rupt, filed an objection to a compost
ton settlement of 20 per cent. made
by Kantor to his creditors. This OBJ
lection is based on a financial state
ment made by the bankrupt to the
Bradstreet Company. on January l.
1t is alleged the bankrupt obtained
additional credit on the strength OF
this document.
At today's hearing George Furst,
counsel for the Philadelphia fim,
made the announcement that this
company has assigned its claim to
Louis Susskind, of Springfield avenue,
this city, on the request OF the bank
rupt.
When questioned by Referee Mason,
the bankrupt said he visited Phila-
delphia few days ago and urged
the Bartour Company to assign its
claim to Susskind-
How xnuch did Susskind agree to
pay the Bartour Conpany2" asked
the referee.
'sHe agreed to pay about fifty per
cent. Of the claim, answered Kantor.
What about the twenty per cent.
composition settlement offered by you
to all your creditors? And do you
mean to tell me that the company
agrees to release its claim for nearly
$500 less than the full amountT' asked
the referee.
"The company does not expect any
more than the sum paid by Susskind.
The $500 was gift .0rom the com
pany." replied the bankrupt.
The examination was adjourned u1-

Ex-Gov. Cole L. BLease
Makes Announcement

the most rcontemptible traitor to his
people and his principles that ever
disgraced South Carolina. His old
time friends view him with contempt
and his new-made friends CD laugh
at the mention of his name, which,
however, I assure you will never be
my fate. Ny enemies may rejoice at
my being a private citizen, but neither
they nor my friends will ever be per-
mitted to say Htat Blease went back
on them or failed them whenever they
called upon him. And, therefore, I
will never make any trade with any
man in this world VINO has not been
true to the peoples cause through
thick and thing, through defeat as well
as in victory
AS between Mr.. Cooper and the pres
ent governor, it is not necessary to
say which one I would vote for, but
I certainly would not advise a Bleasite
to vote for either.
AS to the latter part of your arti-
Gle, permit me to state, so THERE
CAN BE NO MISUNDERSTANDING,
that 1 have received letters from all
parts of the State. Some asking me
to run and others demanding that I
do run for governor next year, and
people from every part of the State
have been to me and requested me to
! run. l have said to many of them
that they let me rest and let's all agree
upon another man. Their reply, to the
man, has been: "You are the only
man who can get our party back to-
gether and to you and you alone are
We looking" 1t is for these reasons
] that 1 have taken tie position that I
have with reference to the campaign
next summer. In order that there can
be no further misunderstanding about
the matter, I now, to you, for you to
make such use of as you see fit, an
nounce that I will be candidate for.
governor in 1916, unless my friends
throughout the State change their
present attitude, which have not the
slightest idea they will do.
AS said when l left tne governors
Office and have since repeated, per-
sonally l am not a candidate for gov
ernor, but my friends nave made the
demand and 1 do not propose to for
sake them in defeat any more than
would betray them in victory.
At the first campaign meeting I
shall raise the peoples colors and fight
as l have never fought before for the
cause of the people, witch is right
eous cause and which the great God
of this Universe may allow to be tenn
porarily defeated, but will at last pre-
vail, for they are the principles of all
liberty loving men and the cause Of an
all-wise and just God. So I presume
it is now in order to say "on with the
dance, let JOY be unconfned."
Very respectfully,

RECALL FOR Won PApEN AND BoY-ED.

In asking Germany to recall Capt. Won Papen
and Capt Boyd, two of the embassy's at
taches in Washington Secretary Lansing has
taken action which many American citizens
feel is quite due, if not overdue.
The revelations at the time DIR. Dumba was
exposed as one of the principals in an inter
national plot, came very near duplicating
officials of the German embassy as badly as
the Austrian ambassador 1t will be remem-
bered that j. F. j. Archibald, the discredited
American correspondent, was carrying to Eu-
rope a letter in which Won Papen used phrase
generally translated as those idiotic
Yankees But the finding of this letter and
the publicity given his phrase was mere link
IN the chain of significant activities which
made Won Papen at least of doubtful useful
ness as a representative of the German govern
ment in the United States.
The long series of explosions and fires in
munition plants and supply factories making
material for the Allies, and of explosions and
fires on ships, point Enthusiastically to plot or
a number of plots in which Teutons and Teuton
sympathizers in the United States are inpli-
Gated. Incident after incident in which Off
Gals of the two Teuton embassies figured have
pretty thoroughly convinced Americans that
these officials must have some knowledge of
the plots. Many citizens have wondered at the
patience of the administration. That patience
appears to be at an end.
Notice is served upon the belligerents that
Uncle Sam S territory is not healthful soil for
eonspirators who imperil the peace and order
Of this nation.
In the role of residents engaged in private
business such conspirators are undesirable, in
the role:of official representatives of a foreign
nation they are doubly undesirable.
DR.. Dumba has been sent home, exposed as
an officihl who violated the good faith of his
Office and irreparably damaged his country's
cause ia the sympathy of true American citi-
zens. Won Papen and Boy Ed appear to have
used their Office with little scrnple;S and
presumed upon American tolerance as far.
Their lesson was looming to them.
