The document lists Republican candidates including Taft for President Sherman for Vice President Fowles for Congressman Ackerman for State Senate Kirste Echwantz for Assembly Pierce and others for various local posts. It includes Ackerman’s renomination bid with broad defense of his record and public service in Union County, and discusses municipal concerns about brewery influence in Elizabeth.
