HON. ROBERT s. HUDSPETH.
THE ID ETOCR1TZC ASSEMBLY, C1NDL-
Dd1E IN THE SIXTH.

a MAN who Has HTnde a Record for Him.
self of which the People OF the Sixth
Ds-tsic:, without Regurd to Parry,
sasala verl Proud His Record.
The subject Of this sketch, Mr.. Robert
5. Hrdspetll, who represented the Sixth
Assembly District Of Hudson county in
doe Legis ature last year, is candidate
for reelection for the same office at the
approaching election. Mr.. Hudspeth re-
aceived a denomination by acclamahon'
the hands OF the Democratic Assembly
Convention last Monday evening, no other
name being thought of or considered; and
the choice of the convention meets with
the universal commentator of the Demo-
cratic party and the residents of the Dis
trict generally who have the welfare and
material interests of not only the Sixth
District but of the State at large at heart.
A nomination for the Assembly in the
Sixth District of Hudson county, by
citEer the Democratic or Republican par
ty, is peculiarly gratifying to the individ
uai SO fortunate as to receive 1t, as it
carries with it verdict of approval and
g; the highest respect for the character,
ability and the popularity of the nominee.
The Sixth District now occupies one of
the most important positions, in point of
population, wealth, intelligence and all of
the factors that are essential to constitute
the greatness and power Of any commun-
ity in the State. 1t comprises part of
Jersey City, in fact nearly all of that por-
ton of Jersey City lying southwest of
Communipaw avenue and bounded by
Newark Bay on the west, New York Bay,
en- the east and the Morris Canal and the
city of Bayonne on the south, and also the
entire city of Bayonne. The population
of the District is now about $4,000. Po-
Iitically, the District is very uncertain,
embracing as it does withinits boundaries
miles of the most important and valuable
water front in the State, immense
manufacturing and coal industries, the
Philadelphia & Reading and the Central
Railroads.&c. New Jersey travers;ng the en-
sire length, and in the near future its water
front being the termini of probably all the
great trunk lines, now having their termi-
rlal in other parts Of the country.
Owing to the varied nature of these inter-
ests and the importance of the questions
that necessarily arise concerning them in
the Legislature of the State, and the de-
eire of property holders and residents of
she district to nave the material interests
OF the section properly and intelligently
cared for and its great natural facilities
and vast resources utilized for the pur-
poses they are so apparently designed, yet
with jealous regard aud fixed determine

porations and other large and varied in

attracted to this section, shall not enjoy

GEN. RAMSEY'S REFORM.
LITTER AN ARDUOUS HUNT FOB AN
ISSUE HE FINDS III.

General John Ramsey is in favor of Re-
forml General John is opposed to all
abuses in our municipal government. Gen.
eral John has confided this extraordi-
nary condition of his mind to his friends
by means of circular, in which he also
assures them that he is candidate for the
Republican nomination for the Assembly
in the First District. The Generals po-
litical ambition may have had something
to do with his attitude in relation to Re-
form and to municipal abuses. OF course
candidate for the Assembly ought always
to be in favor Of something and opposed
to something else. Otherwise he would
not have an Issue" on which to conduct
his canvass The General astutely real
lied this fact and set about picking out
something that he might favor and some
thing that he might oppose. He could not
very we'll announce as his platform that he
was in favor of 'sfulls" beating s'fushsss,
and is unalterably opposed to opening
jackpot on two deuces- These sublime
principles command the assent and rever-
ence of all intelligent men, but as there
can be no controversy about them, tAey
lack the essential elements of an tissue"

THE 10TH DISTRICT NOMINEE
a MAN WHO DID NOT SEEK THE NOMI-
NATION--HE WTLL SERVE If
ELECTED.

Edward Lennon, the Democratic can
didate for Assembly in the Tenth
District, was born in New York City
in 1916; has lived In North Hudson
county since he was three years old; is
now engag> n il the book business In New
York, which claims the .ost of his atten-
ton. He has served one term, in the last
Legislature, and has not sought the nomi-
nation for reelection. He did not see,
nor did he communicate with any mem
Der of the nominating Convention till af-
ter the nomination was made. A position
in the Legislature is of no advantage to
him. as ii Is in conflict with his business
interests; but if his constituents select
him to serve he will yield to their wishes
and perform the duties of the position to
the best OF his ability.

THE FRIEND OF THE woRK1SaMEs

M. b. Holmes Gives His Reasons for
Supporting Congressman McAdoo,
To the Editor Of Sunday Morning Nsrs:
I favor the reelection of Congressman
William McAdoo because he has faithfully
discharged every duty intrusted to him by
the people in this county. In his place in
Congress he has manfully stood up against
all the temptations and allurements with
which he was surrounded for the rights and
liberties of the people, eontending that the
humblest wage worker had as good if not q
better right to combine with his fellow
man mutual protection against the ag-
gression of the capitalist as had the railroad
kings and other grinding monopolists who
meet in secret conclave to determine how
much they can wiring from the hard work
ing mechanic or humble workingman for his
ton of coal or his barrel of -four.
Since first Mr.. McAdoo accepted public
Office as member of our State Legislature
to this day his record is clean and his con-
duct above reproach. In our State Legis-
lature, he was mainly instrumental in de-
feating bill 1877, which would have robbed
Jersey City of her entire water front. No
man can point his finger to single public
act of his that was not for the benefit of
the people and opposed to tyranny and
corruption.
During the few years in which he has
represented this district in the National
Legislature, he has, by his industry and
perseverance. worked his way upward to
position which reflects credit upon him
and the people whom he represents.
There Is one act in Mr.. McAdoo's Con-
gressional career apart from all others that
would insure for HIM my support. re-
ter to his advocacy of the Alien Land bill.
Ii / am not mistaken IL was the first
Congressman of either party who intro
duced bill to prevent foreign aristocrats
or syndicates from owning public lands in
the United States. When we contemplate
the fact that not less than 30. 000, 900 acres
of our public lands are owned by men who
hardly ever set foot on American soil and
who are entirely opposed to our system of
government, and who spend the princely
revenue derived from this land in London,
PARIS and other European centres of
fashion, would we not be untrue to our
selves and to the institutions of our coun-
try did we not show our gratitude to the
pubic man who tried to put stop to such
an infamous system of landholding in the
United States?
MIR. McAdoo. since his entry into Con-
gress has voted for and spoken in favor of
sUaxy measure which was designed to inn

TEE LEGISLATURE, TOO I.


News from all parts Of the State points
to the universally of the opposition,
even among Republicans, to the return Of
a Railroad Republican, or Railroad man,
whichever you please, to the United
States Senate. In Newark we know the
feeling against the monopolies to be as
strong as it is in this county. Jenkins Of
Morris is having lively fight with the
Anti-Sewell Republicans, in his efforts to-
reach the State Senate. and he is COM
fronted besides with dangerous labor
candidate, and a probably more dangerous
Prohibition candidate His path to glory
seems to be thorny one indeed, and it is
doubtful if he can hold out to the end
Speaker E. Amber Armstrong, Gen. Sew
ellis chief cook in the Republican kitchen,
has an independent Republican contest
against him, with s'Jim" ScoveI as an ac-
tive candidate, and altogether the prospect
of the three Sewell candidates there ia so
unpromising that one of the local papers
there says that they all think seriously of
Withdrawing. The railroad question in
its political and economic aspects-is tho
overtowering issue in the progressing cam
paign, and if the taxpayers of Hudson
county are true to themselves, they VIII
see to it that all the Republican railroad
candidates here are eliminated from poll
tics on election day, and the Democratic
Anti Monopolists sent to carry out the re-
forms already happily inaugurated by the
closing administration. It is not enough
to elect a Democratic Governor to insure
the large corporation tax reform that is
needed, or even to make that which has
already been accomplished permanent and
staple. An adverse Governor could, it
must be admitted, throw serious obstacles
in the way of reform but, after all, the
practical work of reform must be done by
the Legislature It is there that the law
must FIRST be made Till the Legislature
has taken action, the Governor is power
less 10 move. He can only approve what
the legislature directs, and execute
after it has been directed. But withou
the Legislature there is nothing for hin .
either to approve or execute. Let u
therefore remind the voters not to over
look the Importance of carrying the AS
sembly nominees who are free from rail-
road influences through, in their COM
mendable enthusiasm to make sure thing

Press Comment.

IUCsOS TINES: No better evidence ol loyalty and obeiience to law can bt furEished than the patience with which the peTsecuted clt!zens of this Territory bear these outrageous mIsreBresentn. lions and insults. Were 1t not for the fact that they were Obeiient to law and trust and hope for that deliyerance which the general government IS in duty bound tO send them, the course pursued by Governor ZulIck would ol itself, be sufficient Co bring abont the very state of things which be falsely represents as existing to-day.
 TUcsoS STAR: The people of the entire Territory are at peace with all mankind, IL Is true that the people ot Graham and COchiss counties are taking tue necessary precautions against the hos tile Apaches, but the Star fails to see any wrong ID this. It IS a natural born instinct tO piOtect ones own life. lt k not tO be supposed for H moment that the governor expects tEe people Uf Ari- zona t1 si'ently submit tO having tneIr tlrcata cut and th ir scaips lifted. No the governor is no fool; he is as keen as two edged sword. be has either been faarfully misiaf1rmei Cr imposed upon, Cr tLe Proclamation may be u canaTd.
 ALBrerEEQUr JoyESAL: Governor Zulick has issull proclamation urging the people Of Arizo-a Co obey the laws and aid the general government ID its efforts 10 subdGe tue hostile Apaches. His proclamation vas unneces- -ary. No other people on earth would have been so law abiding under ihe circumstances.
 ErITAFu: Rather than have been a party to this slanIerous libel upon a lonr-suffering but laH-sbiainS people, he should have resigned the office Co which Ee was but recently unanimously welcomed b. ths people.
 TovBsro,E: Governor Zulick, recall that proclamation, and come out Rs a man should lo and tell tine aiministra- ton that we have been trampled uVon by these savages for the past eight months. Do this, Governor Z1ick, ID the name of justice Und humanity, eyeL if yo' have to resign your office within a week after II leaves your hands.
 PHESIx GAZETTE: The present admin lstration Is not justified in the issuance of n proclamation which can do no good at home and which edlcts outr5ges which were never contemplated save in the minds O. over jealous writers.
 PHESIx HERALD: The message sent forth by Governor Zulick, which seams to be founded on the fear of an uprisinE, of the citizens of the terrItory against the Indians in general, was hardly called for. The people of the southwestern portion of the territory have concluded to be sure, that the only way to rid themselves of the hostile Apscbes is to form a company of rangers and hunt them down. In this they are undoubts edly right: but 1t is not to be inferred from their action that they con- template general war of extermInation against all Apaches. To su outside observer it would appear that they should receive the hearty support of the Governor instead Of his denouncing them, in 6 manner, as outlaws.

TIE recently issued and ill-advlsed proclamation of Governor Zuhck has been the chief topic of conversation since it was gwen publicity, and 1t re- ceiyes general condemnation. Had there been sufficient grounds upon winch to base such Hn arraIgument of the people of Arizona, the document would have been accepted as having been inspired through proper motive. The pretext of an uncoudrmed and senseless rumor that fifty men would raid the reseTvR- ton Is not sufficient to justify the course of the governor. It was an Idle rumor, and a moments reflection would snow the folly and absurdity of such a scheme. Ten times that number would be too small force far sucn a task. The pe0- ple have been starrlad at the official hn- nouncement that they are a desperate and rebellious element, standing ready to defy the laws ot the country and of humanity, and thIrsting to revel In hu- man gore. They are grieyed that Eucl rnisre2Gesentations or their characjes should be heralled abroad to the wc1i to be brought up in accusation agauSt them. If the governor had any ap- prehensions that a massacre of the res ervation Indians was seriously couem- plated, he might at least have fully satisfied himself that they weIi true, and then quietly anticipated such, move ment by interce epting the outlaw. We as- sure the governor that he misskes the character and the loyalty of tle people of Arizona. The temper in fhich they have quietly submitted p repeated Indian raids, outrases Ipi military in- conpetence, trusting b the final and complete triumph of a mighty nation over a few score of 1vages, Is full guaranty that the peoye can be trusted in the greatest emergecy. Their trials, priyations and frontr hardships have schooled them not hly ID wonderful patience. but impylal justice and ul- swerying pstriotls' and sooner than merit the defsmAon ot character ex- pressed by tLe .overnor, they would tstbsr theIr rigt hands palsied. We rac,et the In6cretion that brought torth the dootnent, and as greatly do we deplore f effects of its disgrace. .,;1ona has hdure1 woes of indescrib. .ble seyeritEith a semblsnce Of cheer
