why New Jersey Is Called Spain"

There are but few readers who have not,
either in reading or in conversation, heard
New Jersey referred to as 'Spain" and her
people spoken of as foreigners. While a
great many can readily give reasons for
this oddity of expression, the majority,
even though they be Jerseymen, find that
it is question not easily answered. The
taunt, which was originally good humored
raillery, originated in this way: Joseph
Bonaparte the eldest brother of Napoleon
/, came to America in the second decade of
the present century and occupied the place
called Point Breeze, near Bordentown, n.
J. He was an ex-king of Spain, but, dis
claiming all regal rank, he lived there
for several years, endearing himself to
his neighbors by his charity and good
nature In 1917, after Joseph had made
his mark as a scientist, and had been
elected member of many learned in
stitutions, the legislature of New Jersey
passed an act allowing him, as an
alien, to purchase and hold real estate
within the state. From that time forward
all who opposed the passage OF the bill
spoke of New Jersey as Bonaparte's king
dom of New Spain" and those who favored
the bill as ''his majesty's subjects" and as
Foreigners" st Louis Republic
