LEWIS T. STEVENS CEBTAIN OF NOMINATION Popular Capa May Asaamblyman Increasing In Favor cs Campaign Prograsssa; Gilbert Smith For Assembly The popularity ol Lewis T. Stevens, caadidate lor the Republican nomination for Uie Senate, against IT. Miles Pigar. is daily increasing, and ac Wording in present indication be is practically aasnml of Uie nomination at the primary election nextmonUi. Hi* nnminaUnn means biaelection, lor even Uie most sanguine Democrats concede Uiat ibis Pall will see a Republican victory in the County, aa in Uie State

as a whole.

Cpper Township is for Rigor, and he will undoubtedly carry Wildwood, although by a small majority Cape May , Stevens' home town, and all the rest ol tlie county, will go overwhelmingly for the little fighting Assemblyman. Ktevena has served creditably ij the Aaaembly lor two terms, and secured perhaps more publicity for Uie county than any one Assemblyman in the House. Hr has always stood for Uie best in politics, loi decency, law and order. Gilbert SmiUi is Uie logical candidate lor Uie Assembly, and will undoubetdly secure Uie nomination. Mark Lake, ol Ocean City, alio opposes him. His raid, merely entered the field to promote , lor Uigur imfeean City, hence Uie oppoaition from Uiat source will not be great. Smith is acknowledged to be, by all who know him, a clean-cut buaUrr, and a man who get* what lie goes niter. Best nf ail, bis entire political career consist* in having served his borne town, Avalon, as Mayor, winch position lie i:':w creditably holda. Electric Light Company To Extend Lines Tha Sea Isle City Fill ctric Light. Heat and Power Company baa secured from Uie Board ol F reeholders Uie right of way to extend its lines to SouUi Seaville.

It ia the plan ol Uie AUantic City Company to supply all ol Upper Township except Lndlam’s Island, and Uien run iu lines into neighboring counties. The ne-d lor electricity iu Uiese tecUons has been long felt, Uie residents being forced to resort to the old coal-oil lamp fur illuminaUon. Piano Valuable Asset to School Tlie K«a Isle public school ope-ied on Monday wiUi ttl pupils enrolled. The iusi of Uie week was taken up with organisation and preparauuu lor Uie
