Lamb, has been presented to Select- man Willlam J. Johnson for the elec- tion of a permanent town clerk at the tall election, which will take place on Monday, October 2. There are 20 signers of the petition. At the present time, Judge Meritt 0.

[Furrey expects the Freehold police to arrive in town sometime this afternoon when the | matter can be givén consideration, Plainville Briefs, heen appointed by Selectman Johnson to fill the unexpired term of the late Robert C. Usher. Judge Ryder in turn, appointed Miss May Morgan as assistant town clerk \Mr, Johnson will therefore notify Edwin H. Hil's, chairman of the re- publican town committee and William #J. Foran, head of the democratic com- mitted that candidates for the office of town clerk, will be nominated at | the coming caucuses this month. Oth- ervyln. unless the petition had been circulated, Judge Ryder would have acted as town clerk for another year, assisted by Miss Morgan The signers of the petition, how ever, were in no way prejudiced ugainst the present incumhent, but merely felt that with the increasing bulk of the business the office has daily the need of a permanent town clerk was essential. Mr. Ryder sacrifices a great deal of hig"time at the office when he is not busy with his duties at the Trumbull Electric Manufacturing company or at the judge's desk and can be found at the office nights. The great amount of work he must do in order to keer up with the filing at the town clerk's office is too much for him, states Selectman Johnson. The circulating of the petition will give the voters of the town an oppor- tunity to elect a successor to Mr. Ush- er or name Mr. Ryder if they so choose, This matter will no doubt be the main issue of the fall election and interest is keen as {o» who the candidate# will be. Both parties are understood to be ready for nominatine 1 successor, especially the democrats, in order to wrest the office from the hands of the republicans who have ~ontrolled it for years and years. The general belief in town is that 1 woman will he the next town clerk. Miss Morgan, who has been execut- ing the duties of the office for the vast several months, has been con gratulated on the capable manner in which - she handles the problems which confronts her from time to time when she is unable to call upon Mr. Ryder for assistance. The town pays a salary of $800 to the office holder and coupled with the ‘ees from filing various papers and deeds, totals about $1,200 a year, Up to about a year or two ago. when Robert Usher was town clerk, the office called for but part time at tention. \Mr. Usher, however, wa- forced to remain at his duties all da on account of the business coming in from out of town. Night work also calls the town clery to his duties and it is on this account that the position would be hard for a woman to exe cute, believe many of the townspeo- ple.
