The Next New Jersey Senator

The Next New Jersey Senator.
Ten years ago next January John
r. Mcpherson was chosen a Senator
in Congress from New Jersey. The
contest is memorable in the history
of that staid old Presbyterian State.
The number of members of the State
Senate was twenty-one, and of the
Assembly sixty. The Democrats had
a majority Of one in the Senate. The
Assembly was a tie. Leon Albeit,
now Governor of the State, was then
President of the Senate. He was an
ardent advocate of the election of MIR.
Mcpherson. Judge Ashbel Green of
Tenafy, and Senator John P. Stockton
of Princeton, both Dem ocrats, were
sharp competitors of Mcpherson. The
three candidates were on the ground
at Trenton for several days previous
to the election. Each was backed by
an enthusiastic following, and the
campaign was lively in all the hotels
of the ancient town that usually
drowses so quietly on the bank of the
Delaware.
The election was to DE by ballot In
Joint convention of the two Houses,
where the Democrats ought to have
majority of one. But it was currently
reported that their lines were so weak
at two or three points that they conld
be broken if an attempt should be
made to carry Mcpherson through,
especially as an effort to hold Dem
ocratic caucus, wherein he would
doubtless have been nominated, had
been unsuccessful. A rumor was cir
culated in confidential Democratic
quarters, and fully credited, that two
rich Republicans offered to give a
large sum of money for couple of
Democratic votes, and that if the pur-
chase was made then. all the Republi-
cans would wheel into line and sup
port the man who could command the
most strength in his own party. 1t
was further reported that some money
was actually paid, cash in hand. This.
perhaps. was TO prevent the contract
being pronounced void under the
Statute of Frauds for want of consid-
Grafton! If the foregoing was not true
in substance, then rumor was greater
liar than she is usually supposed to ne.
However, when the joint ballot was
taken Mr.. Mcpherson was safely borne
through the breakers and triumphantly
landed by majority one, Mr. Albeit,
the President fthe Senate, was nnder-
stood to have rendered very valuable
aid to Mr.. Mcpherson.
A Senator in Congress is to be chosen
in New Jersey next January to sue
coed Gen. sewell Republican. whose
term expires in March. Now inst as
it was ten years ago, the Legislature
consists of 81 members. Next winter
the Democrats will have 40 members,
and the Republicans will have 40.
There is one more, and he was chosen
to the incoming Assembly as a Labor
candidate. He will hold the balance
between the two old parties What
will he do about the Senatorshin ?
Who knows? Who can tell? Will he
try to elect himself?-Nelc York Sti1.

Ar the last State Convention Of the
New Jersey Prohibition party, the 10y
atty of State Senator Chattle. of Mon
mouth, who was a delegate, was seri-
ously questioned and he found it nee
essary, in order to make himself solid
with the party, to reiterate his alleg-
lance in the most emphatic manner
1t was reported that he did give some
sort of promise not to take any part
in the caucus of either of the old par
ties in the Legislature, and to vote
only for temperance men for Office.
If this is correct, will Senator Chattell
take part in the Democratic joint eau
Gus for the nomination of a United
States Senator; or will he not rather
feel bound by his pledge to remain
out of the caucus, and to nominate
and vote in joint meeting for Gen.
Fisk, his neighbor and the late leader

The Trenton True American would
have the people of New Jersey believe
that the late election in this State was
fought and won by the Democrats on
a high-toned platform against great
odds. 1t says:
"The Erie was the single railroad corpor-
alton in New Jersey which refused to con-
tribute to a general fund for the election
of Republican Legislature. The Penn
sylvania had large stake in the election
of its employee TO the United States Sem

belief that Democratic Legislature
would hasten the establishment OF equal

bered against what great odds they had to

cheeky sentence:

knowledge thereby afforded that it pays
though you have to subject yourself to
the opposition of the corporations.

SENATOR SHERMAN regards the tariff
agitation as settled for the next three
years. He hopes for some needed
non-partisan legislation from Congress
this Winter-the passage of some inter-
state commerce measure. of bank
ruptcy bill, etc. With the desperate
efforts of the free trade contingent to
kill the protective features of the tar
iff abandoned, he thinks there may
be an intelligent effort to reduce the
revenue by increasing the free list,
placing thereon q number of articles
not produced IN this country, and by
reducing the tariff wherever this can
be done without injury to American
industries.
AS to the contest of 1888. Mr.. Sher-
mans reticence can mean only that
he is a candidate for the nomination,
though he frankly acknowledges that
Mr.. Blaine, if the situation remains
as at present. can have the place if he
wishes it. However, there is no use
in talking Of events a year and half
ahead-for it will be that long until
the national convention shall meet.

litical situation possible within eigh-
