Does This Mean
Three Cornered
Fight For Clerk?

One of the biggest surprises in
years was given the members of the
Democratic party, who are not in the
know, when the petitions were filed
last week Friday for the offices of
County Clerk and Chosen Free
holder on the Small Board. A petit
ton was filed endorsing for the office
of County Clerk on the Progressive
Roosevelt party ticket Charles F.
Thompson. Another petition was
filed endorsing on that same party
ticket, for the office Of Chosen Free
holder, seven men, among whom are
N. D. Campbell, of Hackensack, and
William j. Mahoney, of Fort Lee.
All three Of these men are Demo-
Gratis. Unless the filing of these
Progressive-Roosevelt party petit
lions can be satisfactorily explained,
and the nomination declined by
these three gentlemen, such action
will bid fair to rent the Democratic
party asunder in this county and may
cause steps to be taken to read out
of the Democratic party eveny candi-
date and "leader" who fails to give
his pledge to abide by the result of
the Democratic primaries.
When the news was first published
in the Evening Record of last Satur-
day, those who are candidates for
these offices Immediately began to
inquire why such petitions were filed
and a conclusion was quickly reach
ed. 1t is the common belief that the
filing of the Progressive Roosevelt
party petitions is a trick to get
around the law passed by this years
Legislature, known as Chapter 100
of the Laws of 1915. This is an
amendment to the Geran Act. en-
acted for the purpose of preventing
defeated candidates in the primaries
from boiling the outcome of the pri-
maries and running again in the gen
eral election by filing petitions.
This the ew law prohibits in the fol-
lowing words provided, however,
that any person whose name was
printed upon the official ballot of any
party, at the preceding primary who
failed of nomination, shall not be
eligible to have his name printed on
the official ballot for said election by
petition"
By the filing of the Progressive
Roosevelt party petition it now makes
it possible for County Clerk Thomp-
son to run at the general election as
the candidate of that party, in the
event of his defeat in the Democratic

Fairuiew Schoolboard
Meets on Thursday.

Fairview School Board met on
Thursday evening last. No great
amount of business was transacted.
Opinion of the trustees seemed to be
about evenly divided on the plan to
furnish the school building with
electric clocks. Estimates We're re-
ceived from the Standard Electric
Time Company, as follows: Lincoln
School, Day avenue and Anderson
avenue, S493; wiring, 5000; School
No. l $341.
Discussion was revived on the pro-
ject of building new school in the
Ridgefield section of the town. The
school which is there at present is
said to have been built in 1855.

For Fairuiew Borough

FdlrVleW, IN. y. sept. 8, 1919
To the Voters of Fairview:
Primary day is approaching. Have
you given cpreful consideration to
the question of the qualifications of
those to whom you intend to entrust
the affairs of the borough of Fair
view. Do not wait until Election Day
and then cast your ballot for the man
whose name appears on your party
ticket. Now is the time for careful
and considerate deliberation into the
qualifications of those who are to
represent you?
The Declaration of independence
says: Mankind are more disposed
to suffer while evils are siderable
than to right themselves by abolish
ing the forms to which they are ac-
customed? So it is in municipal af-
fairs; matters take certain form be-
cause the entire electorate do not
act in unison and their own best in
terests are made subservient to party
affiliations.
Are you satisfied with the hand
ling of the borough's affairs or are
you one Of those clinging to the ira
sditioh that to change is to -eApefi-
ment? Are you satisfied to see your
taxes mount higher and higher I'M
til they reach a point where many
will have to give up their holdings
through their inability to pay the ex-
horbitant charges?

Mr.. Kerwein Talks
Of His Position
On The Movies

Mayor Kerwein, who is the Repub
lican candidate for MAYOR of the
Borough of Fort Lee, was asked if
ne had anything to say regarding the
challenge laid down in the last issue
OF the Sentinel asking where he stood
upon the moving picture question.
Mr. Kerwein replied:
Il don't see any sense to the
question. Anybody should know where
l stand on just matters relating to
the borough's best interests. The eff
fort, of course, is intended to draw
me out, and l am easy to draw out
on a question of this kind"
Eyes, but will you be specific in
your reply?"
Yes, as specific as is necessary.
81 stand for a square deal on NOV
ing picture business exactly as
stand for square deal on any other
business in the borough that requires
attention, protection or proper as
SeSSmenC ana taxation.
Il hold to the very substantial
doctrine that no institution of any
kind has a right to special privileges,
and do not propose to make an ex-
ception of the moving picture inter-
ests that are now so largely con-
gregated in Fort Lee. At the same
time these people have come here to
do business right and so far as |
can see and judge they are not here
to bamboozle anybody out of any,
thing for any purpose. | think the
people connected with the moving
picture interests are entitled to the
| same consideration as any other bust
ness enterprise is. If their business
| requires special attention they ought
| to have it; if it requires special
| police protection they ought to pay
| for it.
Just why this question was asked
of me is beyond my ken. have
| never faltered in my line of duty
4 towards the people of Fort Lee, nor
have | undertaken to do things that
are either outlawed by custom,
precedent or right. l am before the
people seeking their ballots on the
basis of what | represent as man.
Anybody who undertakes to inter
polate into this campaign any fool
ish questions will have their thanks
their pains. This is not foolish
| business. 1t is a sincere effort on
my part as it should be on the part
of every candidate to go before the
people on an issue that is square and
honest. If there is any falsehood
4 about my position it will all come
out in the wash.
! My record is behind me. be-
lieve the people of Fort Lee will
recognize that it was a proper kind
of record and if they think so they
doubtless will back me up at the
polls to the limit of their faith in me-
Il do not undertake to say that l
will be elected, but l hope so because
believe the people want clean
| government, and | shall not under
take to give them any other kind.
you may say that l stand on the
moving picture question where every
honest man should stand, or any man
should stand with grain of common
sense left in him."

Congressman
A. 6. Harris
Auto In Crash

Two automobiles, one of them
owned by Congressman Archibald C..
Hart, of Hackensack, figured in a
head-on collision at Broadway and
10th street, New York, on Sunday.
Mrs. Margaret Stichnoch, of ITO
east Ninety-first street, who, with
five others, was riding in the other
car, owned by DR.. Charles Slade, of
245 West Seventy-sixth street, suf-
fered sever decorations on the face
when the windshield was smashed.
Congressman Hart was not in his
auto at the time of the accident. His
chauffeur, George Hammond, was the
only occupant and escaped with slight
injuries. Both cars were badly dam
aged. -Hackensack Evening Record.

He has no for advertising.
There is a difference between an eeotst and

this is with cooperation of the public.

OF the acroplane as real commercial
element in the everyday work of the ma
ton.
The War and Navy departments have
been working in aeronautical science
with very little regard to its use in any
thing but military problems, but have
made discoveries Of great value to the
general science and so far their discov-
cries have been kept to themselves for
the simple reason that there was no CEN
trail organization. Military and naval
attaches in foreign countries have been
keenly alive to foreign developments. and
their reports have been placed in the
Libraries of the two departments. The
army and navy have officers assigned to
the development of air craft. Each es-
tablishment has experimental stations.
The army has plants at Fort Myer. Va.
and Omaha. Nebr. The navy has by

science is shown in the great Roadway

$50 to sI0.Hy0. and the statement was
made in the House of Representatives
that the navy had not yet spent the 500.

This was an example of the chaotic state
in which aeronautics has fallen i'll this
country. Secretary Daniels himself. in
eyDlaining the matter to the Naval AZ

Secretary Walcott has predicted that
