LAST MINUTE
MAYOR FIGHT
MataWan Republicans Enter
Thompson in Race Against
Sutphin for Mayor

MATAWAN, Nov. 6-The Repub-
leans at the last minute today an
noInced the fact that Councilman
stephen c. Thompson would be their
candidate for mayor. This came as
a great surprise to the Democrats
for il was felt almost certain that
William II. Sutphin would have the
field entirely to himself for this Of
fee. Mr.. Sutphin is an e~x-serviee
man and has made an excellent
showing while in charge of the bor-
ough government. Councilman
Thompson is running on stickers
which were printed at the last min
ute.
1t is likely that the Democrats
be sprung at the last minute that
a candidate would have been placed
in the field by them against Francis
c. Bedle, the Republican candidate
for collector. 1t vas generally believ-
&c that a "deal' had been made
whereby Mayor Sutphin was to run
unopposed for reelection and Fran
els G. Bedle for collector.
Indications early this morning
were that a good vote would be cast
before the closing of the polls to-
night. Matawan voters seem to be
considerably interested in the race
for state senator in which Ward
Kremer of Asbury Park and William
A. Stevens OF Long Branch are the
contestants. There are also contests
for the assembly and for freehold
ers and sheriff. The latter contest Is
extremely between John II. Van
Mater of Atlantic Highlands and
Thomas l.. Smith of Keyport. Van
Matters name appears or the Demo-
cratic ballot and Smiths on the Re-
publican ballot.
There is another interesting con-
test in the borough election. This
Is for the Office of councilman and
Is between Charles l.. Little and
Jacob A. Lewis, representing the
Democratic ticket and William H.
Gall and Henry L. Fucker on the
Republican ticket. The term is for
three years and there are two to be
