STATE POLITICS IN THE FUTURE.

STATE POLITICS IN THE FUTURE.
The following hopeful view of the
future political situation in this State
and its possibilities is from the Press
at Camden
With good candidates and the
proper exertion there will be no diff
Guilty about re-electing Republican SEN
ators in every comfy now SO represent
ed. Wesshall hold Camden and Glou-
cester and also Salem, with harmoni

our East Jersey friends can take care
of themselves, we shall be in o better
position to re elect Mr.. Cattell to the
Senate, or any other Republican, than
we now are for Mr.. Rises term Demo
crat) from Cape May, will expire next
year, wheE Republican will undoubt-
edly be chosen as his successor. With
the present state of feeling in the Dem
ocratic ranks, shonld it continue, as
there is every probability that it will
by the selection of superior men, and
disregarding the Office seekers and
bankers now in office, we can carry the
state, elect Republican Governor and
Legislature, and secure United States
Senator for six years. The lookout is
hopeful, and we make bold to say that
if the Republicans do not secure all we
have claimed for them the fault will be
theirs"
We like cheerfulness anywhere, and
much prefer the prophet Of good to the
seer of evil-but there is little good in
deceiying ones self or our playing the
ostrich game" of sticking the head in
the sand and insisting that nobody can
see you. The predictions of the Press
would be all very we'll if-if what
Why, if it were not as notorious as is
Democratic trickery and cheating in
Tammany and in Hudson county, that
there is wide spread and deep feeling
of diss ttisfaction and Encouragement
pervading the Republican party in this
State that will not be dispelled by pref
ty talk Does the Press imagine that
the Republican masses can look on
with indifference, while their wishes
are utterly ignored, their advice is
scorned and their friends are insulted,
and the interests of the whole party are
made subservient to the private ambi-
tions and avarice of small clique OF
Office seekers and tools of men in office,
or that the party can under such Cir.
cumstances be rallied to earnest work
No, Mr.. Press, you are mistaken, sadly
and fatally mistaken in your prediction
taking things as they now are. Jersey
