OUR Trenton letter in another
column shows that, apart from the
fact that he is a Hudson man, Mr..
MulTone's chances of the Speakership
are as good as anyone's, or better. 1t
is said that Hudson is not going to be
in fashion this year at Trenton. We
are very sure, however, that Hudson
win be in fashion among Democrats
when the election comes around,
and it will be expected to
turn up its customary eight
or nine Democratic Assemblymen and
its new Democratic Senator when Mr.
Mcdonald resigns, and its customary
ten or twelve thousand Democratic
majority when Governor Abbett's
successor is to be chosen.
All things considered, the Assembly
may do well to go out of fashion and
give Mr.. Mullone the Office the people
want him to have. He will be a good
Speaker and Democratic Speaker.
He will be much better Speaker
than Mr.. Bergen, who is well enough
in his way, but not wonder OF
strength or intellect.
