Candidates for Freeport's
Coming Village Election
The Brooklyn Times says: ¦ Preeport, Feb. 3.—Two tickeU are expected to be presented at the annaal  ilUjM election on March 16, one of the People'a party and another of the Citizena.
The People's party will be headed by John Mahnken, at present a trus¬ tee, for the oflkci of President. He will have running with him for trus¬ tee Franklin Bedell, who has served a number of terms, and Raymond J. Miller. For treasurer and collector the People's party will endorse the preaent incumbent, S. Dimon Smith and D. Frank Seaman.
The Citizens' party will be headed by Clarence A. Edwards, a fonner town assessor, wlio announced his candidacy for Village President last week. Hia running mates for trus¬ teea are expected to be Howard E. j Pearsafl, an ex-chief of the Fire De¬ partment, and Clarence Williams, the preaent Are chief, or Jay Randall, who is also a past fire chief.
The nominations will be made by petitions. The People's party has been victorious in all but a few of the village elections held since incopora- tion, more than twenty-five years ago. —Brooklyn Times, Aa announced elsewhere, the editor is unable to fully cover these news items and cannot say how much of the above itf m has been verified.
We do feel sure, though, that How¬ ard E. Pearsall will not oe a candi¬ date for any office. He is -.low work¬ ing out of town, ani in a recent dis¬ cuaaion gave us to understand quite positively thit he was so busy that he would not think of Uking the offlce and could not give it justice, being away from the village every day. As to Chief Williams we also doubt if he .would be a candidate as he has had but one year as Chief of the Fire Department and will probably be el¬ ected for another year. We are un¬ able to Interview the others mentioned iri time for this issue. .

Unusually High Tide
FoUows Severe Storm
Special to Nassau County Review Preeport, Feb. 5, 10 A. M.—Al- though according to the almanac it is high tide at 9:00 a. m, the tide is still ristng, and is n6w completely cover¬ ing the lower section of the village in the western part, being up to the trol¬ ley tracks on Atlantic Avenue.
While these high tides have oc¬ curred in the'spring it is unusual to have one at this seaaon of the year, and if the atorm ahould be foUowed by freezing weather it would cause much damage.
(The weather man predicU warmer weatlier following the storm.—Ed.)
Firemen Have Difficult

(And do it)

The blaze sUrted in a large shed formerly used as a lumber shed when Foreman's lumber yards were at the end of South Main Street (evidently incendiary) and the sky was well lighted up when the alarm was sound¬ ed. There, was a heavy wind blowing which carried the sparks to the home of Mrs. W. Weiss, across the road¬ way running dow^n to the docki and the biggest fight was in saving this home, which was afire several times. The sparks blew under the. stoop and atarUd burning up the walls, so that H required a large lot of water to drown it out, and the furniture was badly damaged by water but the flame* were kept from doing any dam- i^se to it—a matter of compliment to the firemen as there was no insur¬ ance on the contents o' the building, although the house was fully insured.
