REPUBLICANS WILL CONTEST
FOR LOCAL OFFICES
The Unexpected Has Happened and
the Result of the Primary Will
Be Awaited With Interest.

According to the decision of many
lawyers an amendment to the election
laws passed at the last session of the
Legislature requires the filing of nom
mating petitions forty-ive days be-
fore the primary instead of twenty-five
days as heretofore. Accordingly a num-
Der of petitions for municipal offices in
"Pleasantville have been filed by Re-
publicans with City Clerk Andrews.
Those filed are:
Mayor-Thomas F. Crawford and
Charles j.. Adams.
Councilman-at-Larg = Albert E.
James.
Councilman, First Ward-Wilbur
w. Adams.
Councilman, Second Ward1Walter
j. Anderson and Jacob Derr.
Freebooter, First Ward-Clark
Adams.
Freebooter, Second Ward-John P
Ashmead.
equity committeeman Il list NdIu-
Arthur H. Stiles, Louis R. Smith, Reu.
ben e. Adams, Walter w. Whitman.
County Committeeman, Second
Ward-David D. Martz and Japhet
Price.
From which it will be seen that a
contest is brewing for the Mayoralty
nomination, for the Councilman from
the Second Ward and for the County
Committeeman from the First Ward
where two are to be elected.
No petitions at all were filed by the
Democrats. Whether they intend to
allow the municipal offices to go by
default, or whether they are working
on the theory that the twenty-five-day
requirement for filing petitions is still
the law, is moi known.
1t is safe to predict that the contests
among the Republicans will be hard
fought and probably close and inter
esting.

Edgar Danielson, son of A. E. Dan
ielson, formerly of Pleasantville, and
now Somewhere in France" writes
that he is in a balloon company and
likes it exceedingly. In part, he says:
4From what I've seer the boys over
here are doing well. Fellows who, be-
fore they left home, never had the
physique of a soldier, look, in my es-
tfmation, like real fighting men. with
square shoulders and we'll developed
chests. There is nothing in the world
will hold us back, once we start driv-
ing into Berlin.
Il am in the Eighth Balloon Com
pany. We have the reputation of be-
ing the best of the balloon companies.
We have just come from the front,
and the courage and spirit the boys
have shown thus far is enough to con
vince them all what we are in it for,
and what we can do. The Huns, as
they are called, have taken notice that
the Americans are a different class of
fighting men from what they expected
we we're. They won't come out in the
open and fight like men. When our
crack gunners shoot one or two hard
balls at them, you ought to see them
go.
Just wait. When we start, we will
never give up until it's over, over
here"
