Big Scrap in Monmouth County for
Republican Freeholder Nominations—Democrats
Will Have No,
Scraps at the Primary.
The primaries in-New Jersey will
be held next Tuesday.
Not in many
yeara has so little interest been taken
in the primary election as is the case
this year.
The Democrats nave no
primary contests and in the Republican
primary the interest seems to
be confined to tho candidates and
their perfldnal friends.
John W. Herbert, T. Frunk Appleby
and Joseph M. Thompson are
striving for tho Republican nomination
for congress. Mr. Appleby
seems to huve the best of it in Monmouth
county, for he ia. a Monmouth
county man.
Each .county has a
candidate und each county is expected
to stand by ita own candidate.
Mr. Appleby believes that he will
not only carry Monmouth but will
carry Middlesex nlso, whicji is Mr.
Herbert's home > nunty. Mr. Thompson
believes that he has as good a
chance as either of the other men,
although Ocean county, where he
lives, iB the smallest county in tho
congressional district.
Six Republicans are trying for the
two nominations for freeholder. The
county ring and the Red Bank ring
are said to want Dallas G. Young of
Keyport and Jesse P. Manahan of
Red Bunk. Mr. Young voted against
women to vote when th
SOLD HIS BUSINESS.
B. {Horn's Dolicctateon Business
Bought by-Benjamin Alperin.
Benjamin Alperin hns bought tho
delicatessen business of 0. Blom on
Broad street and will take possession
of it the first of January.
Mr. Blom
will go to Holland and will visit his
mother, whom he has not aeen in 22
years. Mr. Alperin will continue his
candy business in the Sigmund Eisner
building, formerly the First national
bank building, until Jwuary
1st,
when hjs lease expires.
Mr. Eisner
bought the hahk property upwards of
five years ago from tho Red Bank
trust company. The deed contained
a provision that tho building should
not bo used as a bank until five years
after ita purchase by Mr. Eisner.
That restriction has now expired and
there ia a current rumor that Mr. Eisner
will start a banking business in
the building.
Mr. Eisner says thero
is no foundation for this rumor and
that he has not decided what use he
vacated by Mr. Alperin on January
1st.

PANIEL W. IRWIN DROPS DEAD
IN HIS BLACKSMITH SHOP..
Chapel Hill Loses a Civil War Veteran
and One of Its Best Known
and Most Reopteced Residents—
Funeral Friday Afternoon.
Daniel W. Irwin dropped dead yesterday
morning in his blacksmith
shop at Chapel Hill. He was found
lying on the floor of his shop beside
two horses which he had been preparing
to shoe.
He was born at
Chapel Hill 7li years ago and was a
veteran of thc civil war. For a time
he. lived at Ilolmdel, but nearly all
his life was spent at Chapel Hill.
He took part in several important
battles in the war.
Hia wife, who
was Cornelia Crawford of Ilolmdel,
died seven years ago.
Any • one who has read Longfellow's
immortal poem "The Village
Blacksmith" could easily imagine
that the blacksmith described in this
masterpiece waa Daniel
Irwin of
Chapel Hill.
Longfellow, of course,
never know Mr. Irwin, but his poem
is an almoat perfect description of
the old veteran who has just pa.-sed
away. He had the same honesty, the
same kind and rugged character, the
same great strength and all the sterling
qualities with which Longfellow
clothed his "village smithy" of poetic
fancy,

of Sewer Worlt.
Mayor Arthur A. Patterson made a
second unavailing attempt Monday
night to appoint John S. Stiles supervisor
of new sewer work on Kaafc
Front street and other streets in that
end of the town. On a previous occasion
the mayor recommended the
appointment of Mr. Stiles, but when
strong opposition developed Mr. Patterson
asked that the appointment of
a supervisor be deferred.
The council
acceded to the mayor's wishes with
the result that the matter came up
again Monday night.
The job pays
$5 a day,
Councilman G. Howard Lippincott
forced the scrap from the start.
He
said that the appointment had been
delayed too long and that it should
have been ,made several weeks* ago*
as the work was well under way. This
was at the outset of the meeting. Mr.
Patterson insisted that the matter be
laid over until later in the meeting
and thia was done.
