APPLEBY'S MAJORITY MORE Than 100
over HERBERT IN THIRD DISTRICT
Carried Monmouth by About
1,200 Votes and Made
Good Showing in Ocean

With complete returns from Mon
mouth county giving T. Frank APP
pleby, the Asbury Park Republican
congressional candidate, 1853 votes
more than John w. Herbert, of Hell
meta, his nearest opponent, and
incomplete returns from Ocean
county giving Appleby 600 majority
over Herbert. it looked today as
though Appleby would carry the dis
frict by 1,750 votes and possibly
more.
The complete Monmouth county
returns which consist of reports
from all OF the ninety-eight polling
districts in the county give Appleby
7,419 and Herbert 6.266, difference
OF 1,153 in favor of Appleby.
These figures show that Appleby
gained about ESQ in the returns from
the twenty-five districts, which had
not been heard from up till noon
yesterday. Appieby, according to
the figures available at noon yes
terday, led Herbert in Monmouth
by about 800.
Twenty-nine of the thirty-four
districts in Ocean county had been
heard from up till noon today, these
giving Appleby a lead of 6S2 over
Herbert while Thompson led the
county almost 1000 ahead of Apple
by. With five districts missing, the
official vote given out at the County
Clerks Office at Toms River was:
Thompson, 2,717; Appleby, S22;
Herbert, lao. 1t is estimated in
Toms River that Thompson will
carry Ocean county by from 1900 TO
$500 when the complete reports are
In. Whether the five unheard from
districts will add to Appleby's ma
jority over Herbert Or detract from
1t is question but 1t is known that
Thompson's total will be given a big
boost.
With both Middlesex and Mon
mouth county reports complete and
but i've districts to be heard from
1t appeared at noon today as though
Applebys majority over Herbert
would be increased from 100 to
1880 when the entire vote of the
Third congressional district is COM
kiied..
Ramsay Has Nothing TO Say.
DIR. Wflifam K. Ramsay, Demo-
rratic candidate for congressman in
lhe third congressional district, to-
day sdecIined to have anything to
ray regarding the nomination of I.
Frank Appleby. of Asbury Park, as
the Republican candidate who will
oppose him in the general election.
DIR. Ramsay stated, however, that
he will not deal in personalities in
his campaign.
Indications at the present time
are that the campaign between DR..
Ramsay and Mr.. Appleby will be de-
voted to the issues concerning the
district, with the wet and dry issue
taking the lead. If personalities
can be avoided they will play no part
in the campaign
