County Political Situation

NEW BRUNSWICK, July IL
Signs CLEANED from the cloud or
steam issuing from the merrlly 1o!'-
ing Republican pot now indicate
that G. b. Meyers, mayor OF MllltHWh II
and recently named candidate LOT
the assembly, will not enter the race.
Business reasons are given in sup
port of the assertion. Mr.. Meyers
is employment manager of the .Ilch-
elm Rubber Company plant and Is
said to feel that his work would not
permit him to devote sufficient time
to assembly duties if he were elected
to Office.
Another new name for the assem-
bly, post is that of Samuel Bennett
son of former Freeholder James Id
gar Bennett, who died while in office.

of informed party men, that If
strong man be found who is able
to bear the Republican standard 10
victory, Mr.. Hilker will not enter
the race.
The county treasurer's friends
have been naming him for surro-
gate because of alleged weaknesses
that are seen in the former slate
prepared by the organization. His
decision, it is generally accepted,
will depend entirely upon the iden-
tity of the other men in the field.

site direction. The crew of the sec
ond car say that the victim of tie

ed a fractured skull
