Burpo for Bugbee,
Says He Will Make
The Best Governor

Foormer sheriff and former assem-
blyman, William Burpo of Paterson
has joined with other prominent Re
publicanS of PaSSaic county who are
supporting State Comptroller Newton
A. X. Bugbee for the Republication
nomination for governor in the pri-
mary election, Tuesday, September %.
Mr.. Burpo has issued the following
statement:
Il have endorsed the candidacy of
Newton A. X. Bugbee for the Repub-
lican nomination for governor because
know he is able, efficient and worthy.
AT the convention of the State
League of Republican Clubs held at
Trenton on June p last, the dele
gates from 40S Republican clubs, rep
resenting 100000 Republican voters,
ing the important questions of the day.
Mr. Bugbee has adopted these prin-
cipleS in his platform so far as they
concern the administration of the af-
fairs of the state. He therefore ap-
peals strongly by favoring the same
principles as have been endorsed by
the 100000 members of his party-he
becomes the standard bearer of Re
publican principles.
Mr.. Bugbee has been frank and
fearless in his discussions of all ques-
tons and issues, displaying unusual
qualities of sane and intelligent lead
ership. New Jersey needs Mr.. Bugbee.
Therefore, we serve our state well in
ination and election

The house is rented for one year only,

Suicide in Woods
Of Palisade Was
Named Wenzlau

While Louis Scutari and com
panion were going home last Saturday
afternoon about o'clock, they walked
through road just north of the Pal
isade Fairgrounds, running east and
west. AS they got close to little
stream running over some rocks, Scu-
tart saw the body of man stretched
full length about thirty feet north of
the roadway, under some trees, and
in a muddy bed, with no attractions
for one who was seeking an easy or
inviting spot in which to lie down.
Roots grew in all directions.
The boys at once notified police
headquarters in Fort Lee, and Police
man Rosenstengel went down to the
place with the two boys and waited
around until the body was rmoved to
Hoboken. y soldier who was sitting on
a rock near the place heard the officer
tell a Palisade man about the grue-
some find, and went with his COM
panion, a young woman, and viewed
the body The soldier wore lieuten-
ants uniform. He made photograph
of the body as it lay, first kicking the
mans foot and in iocular vein, said,
Here, wake up" adding, this is not
the first dead one | have seem
The dead man looked to be thirty
five years old, was dressed in a dark
summer sack suit, low shoes and
weighed 235 pounds. He had dark,
sandy, curly hair, and from documents
in his pockets, proved to be Herman
Wenzlail of 52S Washington avenue.

his lips: looked as though he had taken
poison and the froth left whitish
stain all over his lips. Loose cyanide
of potassium was found in his pocket
Otherwise he was not in the slightest
disfigured, and probably stumbled into
his damp last resting place because he
gradually lost consciousness and could
get no further. 1t was sad spectacle

Later investigation proved his resi-
dence and the body was carried that
night to a Hoboken undertaken Wens-
lau did not appear to have care in
the world, it was said. He was a we'll
TODD mechanic, had wife and two
young children. He had started out
grabbing and the rope he carried was
for the purpose of holding the net. He
went away about 8 Il. m Saturday
In one of his pockets was found a
good photograph of himself, with adj
dress of his home. He was a Mason,
insignia of that order being found on
his body. At his home no reason could
be given for his rash deed.

A BOLD CHALLENGE TO D|NTENFASS
ON HIS PAL|SADE LAND HOLDINGS
HOW CAN A SINGLE TAX MAN DO IT?
Candidate for Governor Writes His Own Lands, but
Editor Asks Him Few Questions Bearing on Land
Ownership, Restrictions and Community House.
Dintenfass Virtually Says Tams Lot Was
Too High, Anyhow.
DISCUSSION BECOMES INTERESTING

Does Mr.. Dintenfass use sOphistry
shrewdly? No one accuses him of
anything. He was asked if he were
not holding unused land in large guam
titles for investment-the unearned
increment value his political religion
teaches us to avoid. Also it is too
long IA story to extend in Il village
newspaper.
The community house matter Mr..
DintenfaSs hammers needleSsly. 1t
was decided unanimously at an open
mass meeting to have the management
of the community house connected
WITH the church, not BY it. That
was to avoid taxes, and was legitimate.
The suggestion that he would support
an idea that was "absOlutely Ameri-
can" is a curious admiXture of faith
at this time. The war is over. Moth
ing can be un-American now that is for
the good of all. The thought behind
the community house was that the
church belonged to the whole lcom-
munity and therefore the community
house next door would be the correct
thing in all the circumstances.
If Mr.. Dintenfass wants to help kill
off the present nefarious tax system,
and we are with him on it, why doesn't
he. farm his land and help kill his
taxes that way? Idle land is of no
value to any one but the state that
taxes it. Mr.. DintenfasS has home
with land aplenty near it and part
of it. That is not the land to which
we refer. Why buy piece or pieces
of land? Merely that "some day" it
may grow in value-be worth more
when you want to sell it?
These questions are asked in fair
spirit and not in criticism-for enlight-
eminent rather

Rob Guhse Home,
But Thieves Get No
Booty This Time

Last Saturday Mr. and Mrs Sibley
auto outing for the day ut Rockland
Lake Mr.. Guhse and the three Guhse
children. On their return to the min
iSter'S home that night at 9 O'Clock a
burglar was in the house, but escaped
out of Il second story window by jump
ing to the ground from the shed roof
on the east side. His getaway was
plainly heard, and an alarm ut once
raised. Several neighbors ran over,
and Policeman Heft, who was in the
neighborhood, also went into the house
and made an examination it is said
However, as usual, the horse was out
of the stable, the worst sort of luck
because everybody knows how anxious
the policeman is to catch one of these
smart chaps who have broken records
getting away
The thieves ranSaCked the house but
failed to get any valuables. They en-
tered through the north window of the
living room by smashing Il hole in the
pane about the size of a mans head
and turned the latch. That's all. Then
they climbed in. Mr. Guhse's study
was a sight but where the pot of
gold was the thieves didn't know, for
they missed it, probably because they
were disturbed
Mrs. Guhse says she noticed a Ford
car for several days being driven
around her home with several young
men in it and felt she might be the
next victim.

Bicycle Thief at
Noon Steals Wheel
From Andersons

Now quite the thing to do is to
yank off bicycles that don't belong to
you. Since PaliSade was born four
teen and Il half years ago, there have
been perhaps fifty wheels stolen at
various times. The latest was Miss
Marie Anderson who loaned her wheel
to a friend and neighbor to ride to
the post office last Saturday noon.
The wheel was soon brought back and
placed near the garage, and when it
was wanted about o'clock, it could
not be found and has not been seen
since. The police were at once no.
titled and Officer ROsentengle made a
close search for it all over the neigh
bOrhood, but with no success. A BIZ
cycle is something that can be readily
made off with, and once in the hands
of a thief is so altered that it is
difficult to recognize. Miss Anderson
will pay reward of SO for the re-
turn of the wheel and no questions.
