masses should be undertaken, regard.
less of party.
2. If elected, we would be unpledged
to any man, party or interest on any

8. If elected we promise to vote for

mon justice to the taxpayers.
4. We disfavor any favoritism in the
letting of contracts for public i'm

to rout out all attempts to allow any
bid or contract to be other than fair
and honest. This means that We
would at least try to prevent advan-

all contracts entered by the Borough
of Fort Lee.
5. We believe in a qualified head of
the police department, SO as to di-
vorce the police department from poll

lection.
6. We believe that all improvements
must show their full contract price, so
the abutting property owners will
know the exact cost thereof.
7. We believe in deed restrictions
and that the building and zoning ordi-
nance be lived up to.
s. We believe in better roads.

That the Cliffside Park Republican

and in so doing is giving the voters
of the borough an opportunity to be-

"SPERLING SPONSORS"
HOLD LIVELY MEETING
Differences of Opinion Among
Those Present; Cadien Speech
Brings Retort From Preston.

The Sperling sponsors held small
meeting of their campaign committee
at the Borough Hall on Wednesday
evening, and what was lacking in
numbers was made up by lively dis
cussion and differences of opinion.
The meeting was proceeding in a
very orderly manner when John Ca
diem, former mayor of Cliffside Park,
made speech praising the candidates
and urging the election of the entire
ticket from top to bottom. The sug-
gestion brought forth protest from
Recorder Joseph Preston, who is in
terested in Mr.. Sperling's candidacy,
was pledged to support only Mr..
Sperling and not the entire ticket,
and he thought the Endorsement
should refer to Mr.. Sperling alone.
Mrs. Banville, vice president of the
Board of Education and husband of
the Democratic candidate for mayor,
protested against this attitude on the
part of the members, was ruled out of
order and the meeting again resumed.
The plan of issuing circulars for
Mr. Sperling was then discussed, and
it was declared that the school chill
dren be used to deliver the circulars
School Trustee James Kenny arose
and stated that as a member of the
Board of Education he considerd that
politics and school affairs should not
be intermingled and strenuously OBJ
jected to using the children to pro-
mote any school teachers campaign.
Altogether the meeting was very
interesting and more than usually ex-
citing.
William R. Sperling, standard bear
er of the sponsors, made a short ad-
dress in which he expressed his graft
tude for the support during the cam
paign.
Several other speakers addressed
the crowd on boosting Sperling for
collector.
