Many Bergen Men
Throw Hats In Ring

The suggestion of Secretary of
State Martin that State Senator
Thomas Barber, of Philipsburg, be
the Democratic candidate for Con-
gress in the Bergen Warren-Sussex
district is not being taken kindly in
Bergen county.
While Senator Barber has opened
his campaign for the nomination it
is also quite certain that he will be
opposed by at least one Bergen man.
There is talk that District Court
Judge Peter w. Stage of Hackensack
will run for the Congress nomination.
The name of former State Senator
]. A. C. johnson has also been men
toned for Congress.
For Sheriff next fall County Tax
Commissioner VIM. w. Conklin, of
Englewood, is being talked of. Free
holder Hecker of East Rutherford is
also mentioned for Sheriff. On the
Republican side Freebooter Martin J.
Brestel, Freeholder-elect ]. Blauvelt
Hopper and Charles Robertson of
Tenafly are mentioned. Sheriff
Robert N. Heath may run for the

blows Fohce whistle
Calling Dog Nights,
People Lift Windows

Some person in the heart of Pail
SADIE owns dog and police whistle.
Almost any night doggie is liable to
stray off, so that calling him becomes
necessity, because the owner OBJ
jects, and very justly so, to staying
up all night waiting for doggie to
return to the home that so gladly
shelters it. Very proper.
One night last week, this little Cor
big!) doggie just would not come
home when let out around the usual
bedtime hour. Hence the police
whistle was blown and blown and
blown. Several people who had retir-
ed and were asleep, were awakened
by the whistling.
"There must be a robbery some
where" he suggested to his wife.
"Why don't you call up somebody
and ask?" was the reply of the lady
of his choice for life.
"That's no police whistle" said
one neighbor to whom appeal was
made. Its dog whistle. Go to bed"
Of course, the owner of the doggie
and whistle are all right, but if they
would only tether that doggie nights
when they let him out for run,
there are several people who would
appreciate the courtesy.

Fielder Shows FAVOR
For Edwards To Lead
Democrats Next Year

Governor Fielder is said to have
declared himself in favor of being
succeeded in office for governor, next
year, by State Comptroller Edward
F. Edwards. Comptroller Edwards
is now in California, and on his re-
turn is expected to make the an
nouncemet of his candidacy. The
story to this effect is believed to
have been given out as feeler to
the public.
Those who are known to be be-
hind the Comptroller's candidacy are
Governor Fielder, Secretary of State
Martin, Surrogate Egan, and Sheriff
Kinkead, of Hudson county. The
movement is essentially a Hudson
county one; Naval Officer Wittpenn
is also spoken of for United States
Senate.
But there is opposition. President
Wilson, for one, is convinced that
the Comptroller, being a recognized
friend and ally of big corporations is
not available.
Other New Jersey counties are be-
lieved to be opposed to Hudson
county's receiving so much of the
honors in the campaign. State Chair
man Edward E. Grosscup is spoken
of as possible candidate.

Bergen County people will go to

ing Saturday afternoon to inspect
the site of water works which the

The tour will start from the City
Hall at Paterson and the trip will be
made in autos which will leave Pat

Glen Ridge, Harrison, Passaic, Pat
erson and other municipalities have
already agreed to take a supply of
this water from the State. The new
water works are to be ready in about
five years.
Bergen county municipalities are

Jersey City, Nov. PHI. Otto
Wittpenn's candidacy for the Demo-
cratic gubnatorial nomination has
been formally launched. While the
naval officer has not declared HIM
self publicly, the issuance of care
fully prepared statement Saturday
over the signature of State Senator
Charles M. Egan is viewed here as
the official opening of the Wittpenn
campaign. whether Mr.. Wittpenn
will be candidate for the governor
ship nomination l do not know" Mr..
Egan naively remarks, but if he does
not know, all the rest of the State
does.
Mr.. Wittpenn is the first candidate
in whose behalf anyone has issued a
statement. Since his Comeback" on
primary day over the opposition of a
formidable array of adversaries, in
GLIDING a governor, a secretary of
state, the sheriff of the county, the
surrogate and a number of other
prominent leaders holding public Of
flee, it has been accepted as a fore
gone conclusion that Mr.. Wittpenn
would be formidable aspirant. His
name was connected with the United
States senatorship for a time, but
critical observers were confident that
he would ultimately go after the CUB
ernatorial nomination. Indications
that the Wilson administration will
not get behind Senator James E. Mar
tine is believed to have been factor
in Mr.. Wittpenn's selecting the gov
cs1loisa ipS 30 ahis1,,s IL il..ks q iigss,.
A number of those who have been
mentioned as possibilities for the
nomination for both senator and gov
ernor are close friends of Mr.. Witt
penn. Most of them are expected to
get behind his gubernatorial candi-
dacy, and also to keep out of a fight
with Senator MARITIME rather than en-
danger Mr.. Wittpenn's chances in
any way.
Mr.. Wittpenn's greatest ambition
for many years has been the COVER
norship. AS naval officer, by appoint
ment of President Wilson, Mr. Witt
penn has a salary almost equaling
the salary of $4,000 received by the
governor. He is Independent of

Roosevelt Will Not
Return To The Fold

New York, Dec. 2.-Colonel Roose-
welt has absolutely no intention of
returning to the Republican party,
according to George w. Perkins,
chairman of the Progressive Execu-
tive Committee, who was slated for
a conference with the Colonel today.
"The Colonel's action in withdraw
ing his name as a Presidential can
didate from the Republican primaries
in Nebraska should end all talk that
he is going back to the old party"
said Perkins.
Perkins statement apparently is
backed up by recent actively at
Oyster Bay. During the past few
weeks several Progressive party
leaders, particularly those from the
middle west, have been in conference
with Colonel Roosevelt. Victor Muir
dock and Medill Mccormick have
conferred with the Colonel within
the past fortnight. Chairman Frank
P. Corrick, of the Nebraska Pro-
gressive State Committee, was at
Oyster Bay on Tuesday. Chairman
Clarence P. Dodge, of the Colorado
Progressive State Committee, ex-
pected to see the Colonel some time
today.

Ex-Postmaster Carney, secretary

regard to the progress of it's investi-
cations, said that everything pointed
to the successful carrying out of the
Commissions plan to secure from the
Public Service Corporation it's as
sent to the building of an imposing
roadway along it's right of way. Mr..
Carney said that the Corporation
had, in Difference to the Commissions
request, discontinued the erection of
its proposed metal fences. In all
likelihood, these would not be taken
again until the spring, if it all.
"The Commission has accumulated
a tremendous amount of data. and
of the most valuable information in
regard to the local problem, as we'll
as the operating of railways in gen.
eral," said Mr.. Carney. "The Com
mission has met weekly since its
creation, and held midnight sessions
and later. There is reason to hope
that we will be able to convince the
Public Service Corporation that it is
to their interest, as well as the bor-
ough's to give their cooperation and
also the necessary land, for the
creating of the roadway"
Mr.. Carney said that the Com
nilsson would soon have the matter
in shape to bring it to a successful
and satisfactory issue.

are R. w. McClave, president; P. j.

Must Raise
$500. For
A Watershed

The Eastern Bergen County i'm
provement Association, having ap-
proved the Wanaque River water sup
ply project, will now send circular
to the AZ Bergen county municipali-
ties who will be asked to make a
contract with the State Water Sup
ply Commission for supply from
the Wanaque shed. In this circular
the municipalities will be asked to
join in the raising about $500 to pay
for preliminary survey which is to
precede definite action in the way of
a contract.
Mayor Byron Huyler, Of Tenafiy,
the president of the Eastern Bergen
County Association, says:
"The capacity of the Hackensack
Water Company, which now supplies
most Of the Bergen county munich
palities, is 35,0e0,O0O gallons daily
At the present time the company dis
tributes 100000 gallons daily. If
the population of Bergen county in
creases at the present rate the Hack
ensack Water Company will not be
able to meet the demands upon it
in five or ten years. That will mean
serious situation for Bergen coun-
ty. 1t is the part of wisdom for the
people to look around now for new
and abundant SURGE of supply SO
that we may have the needed water
We also want water that is not load
with chemicals to kill the germs in

ACID FUMES CAUSE OF ALL THE EXCITEMENT

Governor Fielder was severely
criticised yesterday by Franklin P.
Duryea, chairman of the acid fumes
committee of the West End Associa
ton for his refusal to attend the
dinner of the association on Deem
Der II at the Hotel Astor. The Of
ficers of the association had planned
to have Governor Fielder meet Gov
ernor Whitman and discuss some
means to prevent acid fumes from a
dozen factories on the Jersey shore
from reaching the Riverside Drive
territory.
Papers in a suit against the Of
Tending factories, prepared by Deputy
Acknowledgement Leonard j. Ober
meier, have not yet been filed in the
Federal Court, because the associa-
ton had hoped that the two Gov
errors would appoint an interstate
commission to investigate the mat
ter and thus obviate the necessity
for litigation.
Mr.. Duryea said that Governor
Fielder was asked to attend first by
the association, by civic associations
in Edgewater, Cliffside, Grantwood,
and other New Jersey towns, then
by personal friends, and finally by
Borough President Marks, but he re-
manned firm in his refusal. Borough
President Marks yesterday addressed
letter to Governor Whitman tell
ing of his failure.
Mr.. Duryea said yesterday that
although on November 10 invitations
were sent to officers of the offend
ing Jersey factories to attend the
"peace dinner" no replies were re-
ceived.

The first meeting of the council
of the Borough of Fort Lee in De-
cember, took place on Wednesday
evening, in Schlosser's Hotel on Main
street. All councilmen were present
and Mayor White called the meeting
to order promptly.
The first business of the evening
was a communication from Edward
Mallon, of Fort Lee, who stated that
he had been placed as Waterman up
on a fallen wire of the Public Service
Corporation and after rendering sew
eral bills had to date received no re-
Spouse. He asked the council to as
sist him. The matter was turned
over to the clerk for adjustment.
A letter from Philip Hook was next
read in which he stated that he did
not want to pay the interest charged
against him on his sewer assessment,
amounting to $685., because, as he
claimed, he had never received bill.
The letter was turned over to the
collector for adjustment.
Mr.. Garoni wrote that he would
like to pay his sewer assessment bill
in ten installments, which was agree
able to the council.
Mr. Brannigan Wants Lease
Mr.. Thomas Brannigan, of Coytes-
vile, wrote that he would like to
lease two vacant lots on the west
side of fourth street, the same hav-
ing been sold by the borough some
time ago for non-pa yinent of taxes.
In the discussion which followed, it
was clearly shown that the borough
had no right to lease property and
the clerk was instructed to notify
him accordingly and find out what
use he proposed putting the lots to.
N. w. Bolan, of the Public Service
Corporation, stated in letter that
he was taking up the matter of fix
ing the junction of the company's
tracks on Main street.
Mr.. Hauser, in letter represent
ing Mrs. Logging, complained that
her sewer assessment was too high
and the matter was turned over to
the engineer.

that an erroroneous assessment had
been made on his bill of lot No. 10,
which he claimed did not belong to
him. The collector was instructed to
take care of the matter.
Borough Clubs Letter
Borough Club in a letter address,
ed to the mayor and council set
forth a resolution for an appropria-
ton to cover the cost of publication
of the tax list in full. Considerable
discussion followed the reading of
this communication and Mayor White
said that he did not think the scheme
an economical one and that the only
way he saw of such a document be-
ing published was by the taxpayers
paying extra for it. He reviewed
the very large amount it had cost
when last printed. The letter was
ordered filed.

Strange Auto
Accident In
Fairview Rid

A party, which included four joy
riders from Brooklyn, are thanking
their lucky stars that they are alive
and enjoying good health, following
an automobile accident, when the
car in which they were riding cap
sized as they were rounding a turn
near Nungesser's Hotel, Fairview.
The auto came speeding up the
boulevard, and as the driver turned
into Bullsferry road, he misjudged
his distance and the front wheel of
the car smashed into the stone curb
ing along the roadway.
Frank Murray, of Murray & Oaks
garage, witnessed the accident from
the garage door on the boulevard.
After calling several men to assist
him, Murray started on what he ex-
pected would be the gruesome task
of hauling the dead and injured from
underneath the car.
A couple of heavy hydraulic jacks
were used in lifting the car and those
pinned underneath were found to be
unhurt save for a few minor injuries.
AS the car was lifted from them the
occupants began crawling out one by
one, much to the establishment of
their rescuers.
After giving themselves thorough
examination and finding that they had
suffered practically no injuries from
their experience, the passengers of
the car assisted in getting it back on
its wheels and resumed their journey
without revealing their names to
their rescuers. The car was not in
jured to speak of.
