East Brunswick And
Madison Political Data

OLD BRIDGE, Nov. The vot-
ers of Madison township are taking
considerable interest in politics this
year and their chief interest ac-
cording to opinions expressed is to
see "a new set" of freeholders in
Middlesex county. Growing opposi-
ton against the present Republican
board is seen as the direct result of
exposures made in connection with
the financing of county affairs and
the regiment of janitors employed.
A general feeling prevails hat the
freeholders have not given the land
owners and farmers of the town
ship a square deal, and that the
freehclders have neglected the
country people entirely. Considera-
BILE campaign work in the interest
of the Democratic candidates for
freeholders has been made here in
recent weeks with the hope that
Madison township may receive some
consideration when new members
are elected to the Board of Free
holders.
Locally. the forthcoming election
holds little interest. A township
committeeman is to be elected.
Richard Burlew, Republican of
Browntown stands to win the cleo
ton since his Democratic opponent,
Milton Rose of C~heesequake, has
failed to qualify, according to re-
ports.

lean committeeman in all of the five

thinks the time is ripe now to push
this project to a reality and end the
delays week-ends, which with in
creased traffic are bound to continue
and increase. This is becoming a
main highway between two states,
and a bridge here would be used
very extensively by the vast popula-
tion for miles in and about New

phia. The B. G. o. management have
stated that they will not oppose it,
and this being true there ought not
to be much in ,le way of it's coming
in the near future. The manage
ment of this road also say they are
agreeable to the idea of electrical
operation, in accordance with the bill
recently passed in Albany requiring
all roads to be electrified in this city
within a limited period, and it will
lo a job laid out for the assembly

at the meeting of the Carteret DEM
ocratic club at Coughlin's auditor
lum last night. Klemmer Kalteis-
sen, candidate for freebooter. again
attacked the Republican freeholder
board, charging that thew have COW
cred the county roads with 'molas-
ses' instead of concrete paving. He
called particular attention to the
strip of road leading to Keashey
which he said the freeholders spent
$4,000 on and also said that the

Joined Madison township in their
efforts to overthrow the present Re-
publican Board of Freeholders. Dis
satisfied with the present county
administration. the people of the
township, formerly a strong Repub-
lican fertilization is now swaying
its favor toward the Democratic side

ments of roads in the township, de-
claring that the freeholders ha e
entirely abandoned them. They

of improving county roads so as to
help the farmers who make up the
population of the township.

township committeeman. The can
