Against Patent Paving

METUCHEN, Sept. 7-Opposition
to closed specifications in road con-
struction, and also to patent pave
ments being constructed at the pres
ent time throughout the state and
county, is expressed by Arthur K.
Hillpot, a Republican candidate in
the freeholder primary contest.
Mr.. Hillpot favors concrete roads
and if bitulithic surfaces are re-
quired he favors the use of asphalt
which can be secured from a county
taxpayer, the Barber Asphalt Paving
Company. If elected. he promises
to war against patent pavements.
In connection with Mr.. Hillpot's
campaign against patent pavements
1t is said the board of freeholders are
repairing a road from Cranbury to
the Aqueduct with bituminous dress
ing over macadam stone. 1t is claim
ed that it is costing the county as
much for this two-inch bituminous
dressing as Mercer county is paying
to construct a road with six inches
of concrete.

TWO TICKETS
FOR METUCHEN
Both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis Will Have Separate
Candidates

METUCHEN. Sept. AT a eau
Gus of prominent Republicans of the
borough last night, a complete ticket
for the coming elections was named.
This action was delayed for some
time in an effort to have the Demo-
Gratis and Republicans agree on one
ticket, made up of the best men in
the borough. A. u. Quint, president
of the Republican Club of the bor-
ough, made a report of various at
tempts to reach an agreement with
the Democratic leaders, and stated
that three Democratic leaders with
whom the matter was discussed were
antagonistic to making the move.
Republican Slate
The Republican slate for election
is as follows:
~Mayor-Washington Wilson, re-
election.
Councilmen-Rufus Reninger and
f. Marmaduk Potter.
Assessor-Walter Tausig.
Borough Collector-B. d. Ford.
Constable-No candidate named as
yet.
1t is likely that the Democrats will
also name a complete ticket, prob
ably as follows:
Mayor-G. Resham Ennis.
Councilmen-Fritz GARRISON, H.
Raymond Senior and George A.
Kelly.
Assessor-John Breen and James
Powers.
The Democrats have not decided
on candidates for constable or bor-
ough collector. and it is possible that
John Breen will not seek reelection
for the assessorship.
Name Committeeman
The Republicans of the borough
have named committeeman from
each district in the borough, four in
number. A. U. Quint, Max Friedman.
william McClerg and . E. Riddle. Sr..
and two women, Mrs. Josephine Car
men and Mrs. Edna Crowell. Mrs.
Edward Morris and either Mrs. Ar
thur Hillpot or Mrs. Peter Gay will
be committeewomen from the other
districts.
A finance committee has beer
named to collect funds for the cam
paign. as follows: Max Friedman
Enos Faratt and John ]. Clark. trea-
surer of the Republican Club. Ar
rangements are being made for 6
public mass meeting to be held be-
fore primary day. probably on the
night of September 20, a week be-
fore primary day.

than occasions for the submission OF
reports from the cabinet members to
their chief, and in return to receive
from him the orders of the day. Now
all that is changed. Each member
of Mr. Harding's cabinet was selected
for his ability to contribute to the
success of the republican administra-
tion, and when they assembled togeth-
er each is invited and expected TO
offer his opinion to ay question that
may be under discussion.
Now, children, the phrase popular
government is one about which we
heard much during the campaign Of
last summer. It is mentioned fre-
quently now when reference is made
to Mr.. Harding and his policies. But
the country has suffered so much and
so long under an administration that
has patterned its actions after the
monarchies Of the old world that we
can scarcely say too much about the
return to popular government that
has come at last.
I 81 saw and heard many things while
| was in Washington that may be OF
more interest to you than what have
been telling you about. Perhaps you
will hear of them some other day. l
wanted to tell you first of the great
change that has taken place in our
national affairs so thai as you grow
up, you can remember this time as
one of the great turning points in our
history without the sort of govern
ment provided in the constitution. the
United States could not long endure
For eight long years the country
has seen steady departure from
those principles our forefathers de
clared were essential to our welfare
as Il nation. But the turning point
has come at last and the country
is rapidly retrieving the loss TO it's
prestige and prosperity that it has
suffered.
The energy with which President
Harding has put into practice the the
ories upon which he won his election
/ is little short of marvellous. With
such beginning the success of his
administration is assured, and We
may look for successive reports from
Washington telling of further accom-.
plishments for the godd of the
people. II is subject that should re-
ceive not only the closest attention
OF every one OF us grown men, but
your teachers In the schools would
do well to impress upon the children
the Importance of return TO the
sort of government under which we
lived up until eight years ago. and
as each act OF the Harding admins
tration marks nearer approach to
that end call II to the attention Of
the class.
Now. children, II is time Tor bed
Before you go to sleep Just think over
what ! have told you. Some other
time will tell YOU Il story to make
you laugh. but tonight | wanted not
only to tell of what | had seen In
Washington but TO draw lesson from
that you could remember with pro.

ing address, and the scenes about the
white house. What want to tell
you of is what Mr.. Harding has done
as a beginning to the return to popu-
lar government that he promised One
of his first acts-of little concern. but
Indicating the policy that he intends
to pursue-was to throw open the
gates of the white house grounds to
the public. 1t was the first time the
common people have been admitted
within the enclosure for years and
they were prompt to take advantage
of the restoration of their old privil-
eyes.
Two days after his Inauguration
President Harding had q dinner at
the white house to which wea 3 invited
the leaders OF the republican majori;
ties in both the senate and house of
representatives. Such an event was
practically unheard OF during the
time his predecessor was in office, and
the resumption OF conferences with
the legislative branch of our govern
ment was as much an innovation as
the admission OF the people to the
white house grounds. The members
of congress were not called in by the
President to receive orders at his
hands, but to advise him on the press.
ing matters that are before him for
disposition. II was said by one OF
the guests that President Harding did
far more listening than talking dur
ing the meal and the discussion that
followed They were all impressed
with the changed atmosphere that had
come over the white house, and were
filled with confidence when they
thought OF the helpful relations that
will exist between the President and
congress In the future.
Another conference was arranged
by Mr.. Harding with a group of his
friends in the senate. only n day or
two after his inauguration. II tnok

tunjty for the President to learn al

upon whom he must rely TO put his
policies into the form OF laws.
