of the sale of water, also a sinking
fund at / per cent. for the eventual
repayment Of the principal to the
municipalities, and the rates of
water are on the basis of cost to
cover the interest and sinking fund
charges and the maintenance of the
reservoir, as set forth in Section 7
of $685., laws of 1910, included in the
reports of the Water Commission"
says the circular.
Patterson, Newark and Passaic,
three of the largest municipalities in
the state, are preparing to establish
source of water supply that will
practically monopolize the most avail
able watershed in the vicinity of
Bergen county. Immediate action is
necessary by the municipalities of
this county, not only to cover the
present necessity, but to provide for
the future in order to insure to this
region source of water supply that
will meet the demands of the dis
trict, which is developing more rap
idly than any in the United States.
"In 1905 the population of Bergen
county was 100000; 1910, $4,000;
1915, $4,000, or 70 per cent. in ten
years.
"From the above table you can
readily see that lack of an adequate
water supply in the next few years
is sure to be not only injurious to
health and property interests, but
may occasion the sacrifice of human
life in case of fire.

LACKAWANNA

SCRANTON. Pa, May 17.-Governor
Brumbaugh carried Lackawanna County as
n candidate for delegate-at-large in 81 out
of ISL districts. Brumbaugh is leading
Penrose by 500. Complete returns may In
crease this lead to 1000.
The vote for the other candidates for del
egate-at-large is coming in slowly. Candi-
dates of both the Penrose and the Brum-
baugh factions are known to have polled a
heavy vote here. There are no figures
available in the vote for President Will
son was given a virtually unanimous vote
by the Democrats. There were scattering
votes for Roosevelt and Ford. In 81 dis
trlcts out of 1S1 Kephart is leading Clark

Snyder, for Auditor General, had about
the same lead over Amber. On the Demo-
cratic ticket Murrin, in his home county
beat Lenny to 1. Scott, Sobel, McLaugh-
lin and Lafean are leading for Congress-
man-at-Large in the order named.

DAUPHIN

HARRISBURG, Pa, May 17.-Estimates
made yesterday were that Harrisburg poled
less than half of the ordinary primary vote
and that in some parts of Dauphin and
Cumberland counties the vote would run
less. Fragmentary returns from this city
and the Lykens Valley showed that Gov
ernor Brumbaugh was running behind some
of his own delegates-at-large, and in Steel
ton and other towns the name of Roose-
welt was written into the ballots below that
of Brumbaugh.
Indications are that the Penrose dele
gates received a good-sized vote and that
Snyder and Kephart swept Dauphin and
adjacent counties The partisans of Scott
and Lafean made strenuous efforts for them
in this vicinity.
The returns from Jefferson township,
Dauphin County show six votes cast for
the Penrose delegates-at-large and none
for the Brumbaugh list. In number of
other rural districts the Brumbaugh slate
got two and three and the Penrose list from
Is to 90, In some Harrisburg city districts
Penrose was ahead about to l. Senator
Snyder received a good vote in the upper
end of Dauphin County. where he was born
1t is estimated that he will beat Amber
to l in the county. The surprise of the
returns is the small number of Ford stick
ers and the number of instances in which
Roosevelt's name was written into the ball
lot. especially in the mining and steel works
districts.

LEHIGH

ALLENTOWN May 17.-By vote of
two to one Penrose forces carried Lehigh
County over the Brumbaugh candidates for
delegates.at.large, and Colonel Edward NJ,
Young of Allentown, and Judge Robert
Grey Bushong. of Reading, were elected
delegates to the Republican National Con.
vention. The vote runs about 5000 for the
Penrose candidates and 1900 for the Ants.
Virtually all the 400 Lehigh Democrats
who came to the poll voted for President
Wilson, but Republicans, were far from
unanimous in thus honoring Brumbaugh,
and the scattering vote for Hughes, Penrosc
and Ford equal that accorded the Governor.
The result on presidential preference shows
that Lehigh is not for Roosevelt. The vote
between Bonniwell and Orvis is close, with
indications that Bonniwell may carry the
county by 200.
Cramer, Democrat. for State Treasurer,
carries the county by 1000 while Kephart
will have about the same over Clark. For
Auditor General Lenny, Democrat, will
