The several absentees on the
teaching staff are slowly resuming
their places in the schoolrooms. To-
day every teacher Is returned to the
high school, where the classes have
been crippled badly for the past
three weeks. There are twenty teach
ers absent today from all the schools
in the city.
At School 4, four teachers are alb
sent and with the low temperature in
many of the rooms the ordinary daily
routine has completely changed and
many of the classes have had to
double up.
Royal Predmore, principal Of the
night schools, reports that the night
schools will close for this season this
week. More interest has been shown
in these classes this year than even
before and q very successful season Is
reported. Next week there will be
graduation exercises when it is ex-
pected that J.. M. Gurnett, chief of
he naturalization examiner of Phil
adelphia, will talk to the students.
About 40 have been enrolled in
the five night school classes this
term. At the grammar school the
instruction is in charge of Miss 1. d.
Miller, Miss Helen Wright and Miss
Lillian Fritz; at No. S school, Louis
Jacobson and Miss Agnes Hardiman.

er Association of the Grammar

WONEN'S VOTES
First Political Move in That d.
reCtiOn in Letter Today
Gu Special Correspondent.

Gg Special Correspondent.
TRENTON, Feb. 16:-The first bid
for the vote of the women of New
Jersey was made today when Repuh-
lican State Chairman Edward G.
Stokes sent q letter to each of the
twenty-one county chairmen of his
party in the state calling their atten-
ton to the probability Of women vot-
ing next fall and suggesting that they
be given instant recognition as auxil-
larry members of the county commit
tees until women actually have the
right of suffrage when they can be
legally elected members, should they
desire to serve upon the committees.
The ratification Of the woman
suffrage amendment by the legisla-
u of this state makes 1t probable
that the will vote in the near
future" said Mr.. Stokes to his chair
men in the respective counties, land,
therefore, we must begin to organize
this new electorate. / suggest that
you communicate with the members
of your county committee and secure
the anne of women who will be in
terested III the Republican cause in
each election district of the state,
and enlist their services as an advisor
or associate to each member In your
county committee. This official rec
ognition Of the now voter will enable
them to organize their conferees with
authority"
With New Jersey safely cover the
top" for ratification and other states
rapidly falling into line SO that only
five more are needed to make the
Susan B. Anthony amendment a part
of the constitution of the United
States, the advent of votes for
women" after years OF battling seems
to be accepted by the political lead
ers as here.
The move of the Republican state
chairman today may be regarded as
a plan to obtain for his party some
of the thunder which has gone to
Governor Edwards, as the head of
the Democratic party in the state, in
his open advocacy OF the suffrage
u and his influence In the legis-
lature in bringing about ratification
in that body during the last two
weeks
Mr.. Stokes letter states that the
advice and assistance of the pine
In each district will be highly bene-
fetal to party success this fall. One
woman in each district, he believes,
working side by side with the duly
elected party representatives of the
district, will produce good party re-
suits.

nixon CASE IN
CIRCUIT COURT
Suit is Result Of Sale Of Land at
Camp RaritanI
8V StdH Correspondenr.

81 btd1 correspondents.
NEW BRUNSWICK, Feb. 16-The
circuit case of Russell +. Wat
son VS.. Lewis Nixon again came up
for consideration before Judge Frank
L. Lloyd here today. The witnesses
IN this case were heard in tho Sep
TENDER team of the circuit court and
decision was withheld until both sides
had summed up their easel Judge
Peter +. DAILY and John Kirkpatrick
represent Nixon.
Although Russell L. Watson ap-
pears to be the complainant in the
case he represents Rodney Miller, of
Metuchen. who claims that &c., 600
is due him from Nixon as part of a
! compact entered into by the two on
February Is. 1918. According to the
: details of the case learned in court
Miller agreed on that date to ALLOW
Nixon to take over an option on GER
tain property belonging to Miller for
$40, 600, this land being situated at
what is now Camp Raritan. The men
agreed. it is said, that If the govern
ment paid not less thai S2S5,00O and
not more than S295.000 for the land.
Miller was to get $4,000 additional
and If more than $4,000 was receIv-
ed, all In excess was to be equally d.
vided between them.
Another agreement entered into be-
tween the two men, it is said, was that
IL the property was not sod to the
government in one year. that was by
Feb. Is, 1919. Miller was to relinquish
all claims and Nixon take over the
land upon the payment of $4,000 ad-
ditional. The cases., from appearances
seems to hinge upon the question of
whether the government has yet taken
title to the property and If so on what
date. Miller claims an additional $1O,-
600 to hat which he received from
Nixon when he first made the pact
with him Is due him.
Figures brought out in the case
showed that On Jan. rs, 1918, an
award of ~$21.979.82 was made Miller
for occupancy of certain lands and
on Feb. 6, 1919. $327,242.99 was paid
for property of which hat in question.
