The Election

i Tuesdays primary contest was on,
of the most quiet ever experienced ii
this county and the result was not ex
actly as predicted by some who
protested to be in possession Of in
formation that indicated an entirely
different state OF Affairs than was
shown by the returns. 1t vas thought
that former Senator White would give
Senator Wells sharp run for renomi.
nation, although the chances were in
favor of the latter. Local option was
! quite an issue at first but the action OF
the Washington legislators on the
bone dry question eliminated that
part Of the argument and Senator
Wells wonsby a handsome majority.
The introduction of William Fl. Holt
as the man to unseat Assemblyman
Roberts was also a factor which some
thought would cut a figure. In fact
those who had some grievance, real or
fancied, against Assemblyman Roberts
were very sure what the result would
be, but the present member was never
in any danger.
On the local ticket in Mount Holly
there was not much contest outside of
the Office of township collector. Ed
ward P. Hullings, who was defeated in
the election three years ago, was the
successful candidate by 28 plurality.
Beverley c. Kingdom, defeated in the
election six years ago and in the pri
mary three years ago, again ATTEMPTED
to secure the nomination. Up to GER
tain time there were but the two
candidates in the field, but Isaac II.
Lippincott, the Garden street milliner.
concluded to get into tae race.
Whether he did this of his own Volt
ton or whether he was asked to get in
SO as to divide the strength of Kingdom
is not known, but the latter was the
result as Lippincott polled 20 votes,
number of which would have gone to
Kingdom. Lippincott openly said that
he did not have any expectation of
winning but he wanted to be on the
ticket That his action nominated
Hullings is beyond doubt.
The Democrats did not have anv
regular nominees but the names of
several persons were written on the
ballots. William Hinkle and Harry
Hawkins, ST., we're nominated for
township committee, and John B.
Herbert received the vote for town.

greater importance on the course
OF the war, and, perhaps, for peace
Than the - centimetre mortars.
'Of course. such giant cannon
