Independents to Hire entires. The

an lmportnnt part. The defection of
nominal lieutenants of Senator l'enroe
helped greatly. The apathy of .inn.noo
"slacker" voters completed the debncle.

Eleven Sure of Election
As eleven Republican magistrates
are to be elected in November the eleven
men nominated on the Republican
ticket Tuesday, virtually are certain of
landing "Judgeships," which are worth
$1400 a year, in addition to the per
quisites and power that go with the
office.
Six minority party magistrates are to
be elected in November. The Demoerats
nominated eleven candidates Tuesday
and In the ordinary cource of events
would Kent six of the eleven on the
minor bench.
But the Combine, it is reported, does
not intend to let events develop along
ordinary lines. Flans are under con
sideration for the jTe-emption of a new
party tit'e, which niii't be done twentj -ight
dayH before the November election.
By running candidates for ningistrntu
under the new purty title the election
then will develop into u grnnd scram
ble as far ns the minor representation
Is concerned. By similar tactics two
rears ago the Vnre organization elected
Magistrate Carney.
Under the law the seventeen candi
datei for magistrate who receive the
highest vote at the November election

COUNCIL FACTIONS
SEEK MONTGOMERY
Both Combine's and Mayor's
Friends Want His Voting
Power
MAY GO ALONG WITH MOORE
Tho Combine faction and friend of
the STnyor nro trying to line up lltigh
Ti. Montgomery, Councilman from the
Seventh District and n friend-of Judge
Brown.
From authoritative sources It was
learned that Montgomery will lino p
with tho friends of Mayor Moore, al
though prior' to election he often voted
with the Combine forced.
The Importance of Montgomery's
vote will be realised when It la under
stood that the Mayor's friends In Coun
cil, provided Montgomery goes along
with them, will be nble to prevent the
Combine from passing bills over the
Mnyor's veto.
If the Fifteenth Ward member flops
back to the Administration, Judge
Brown will be In a splendid strategic
position from which to manlpulnte deals
on Important Issues, as the line-up will
be twelve to nine In favor of the Com
bine, nnd It takes a three-fifths vote,
or thirteen, to pass a bill over the
Major's disapproval.
With tho Important gas question
about to come up for consideration, the
situation will be entirely changed If
Montgomery stays with tho Mayor. The
opinion was general that immediately
after election Council would take steps
to nld the United Gas Improvement
Company and go through with It. re
gardless of the Mayor's attitude. With
only twelve votes, however, they will
have nothing to do but to allow tho
Mayor's vetoes to stand.
Montgomery Ib chnlrmnn of the Com
mittee on Public Utilities nnd Trans
portation. He Is also a member of the

BERKS AGAINST CONVENTION

Returns Nearly All In

defeated In BerkH County by a vote of
two to one. With about twonty pre

shows 3275 in fnvor nnd 0851 against.
Mnny voters ignored the subject al

ocrats gave good pluralities to their
two candidates for delegates, Joseph F.
Morris and William Abbott Wlttman,
with Laurence II. Riipp, of Allentown,

n large plurality, it is likely both the
Berks candidates would hnve gone on
