Kearney's so to 100 Republican major :
ity, and Jersey City, and even if the
latter did as badly as in the election
just held, the county would still be
Democratic by 1900 majority. Per-
haps these indisputable figures will
remove q great deal of anxiety from
the minds of Trenton and other rural
editors of both parties, and stop a
great deal of foolish speculation. We
venture to prophesy, despite some
recent errors OF judgement into which
we fell in company with numerous
very good politicians, that Hudson's
total Democratic majority in Hudson
county will range from 4,50O to 5000,
and that Jersey City will contribute
from 500 to 1000 to that result.

LET us now look at the vote in
Hudson from another point of view.
1t is frequently said that to carry the
State the Democratic party must
carry Hudson this year. We are not
by any means prepared to admit that;
but assuming it, for the sake of argu-
ment, let us see if there is the ghost
of doubt as to the party carrying
Hudson. We think there is not.
Now, we are not of those who think
the recent party reverse altogether
ephemeral in its effects. Frankly. we
do not expect to see Jersey City roll
up its old time majority in November.
We think many people have been
estranged from the party who cannot
be brought back at once, and whose
votes will go against us in the fall. At
the same time, nobody but lunatic
can claim that there is any prospect
of the Republican party carrying the
city on the Presidential electors, Gov
ernor, Congressman or Senator. We

The Vote in Hudson in November.
In the coming election, the County
of Hudson will be pretty well divided
up SO far as the Federal contests are
concerned. 1t will figure in no fewer
than three Congressional Districts, the
Fifth, Seventh and Eighth, and its
stalwart democracy will be relied on
to help carry all three for the party.
All the North Hudson towns belong
to the new Fifth District. They are
grouped in it with Bergen and Passaic
Counties, and there can hardly be any
doubt as to what the result will be in
that district. The Hudson towns con-
stituted the Tenth Assembly District
in 1890, and they gave E. F. Mcdonald
a majority of 1,116. Bergen County
is surely Democratic. 1t gave Cad
mus 692 over Beckwith in 1890, and it
is good at any time for 500 majority.
Passaic is doubtful county with a
Republican tendency. 1t gave Beck
with 1874 majority; but there is no
conceivable possibility Of its counter
balancing the majorities of the other
two sections of the district. The
Fifth District is good for about 1900
majority.
The new Eighth District is to con-
sist of Hudson county, some of the
Orange townships of Essex and the
city of Bayonne. Union County gave
Senator Marsh plurality of 1888 in
1890, and in the Congressional strug-
gle gave Geissenhainer 1867 votes.
The party is in better shape there
now than ever, the Wilson feud being
at an end, and all factions harmonized.
Union is good for at least 1, 500 major
ity for any Democrat. To this, Bay
onne will add from 500 to 600. The
Essex towns are Clinton, Republican
by 80; South Orange. Democratic by
100; West Orange, Democratic by 400,
and Milbtffn, Democratic by 100; net
result, Democratic by 600. This leaves
theaentire district sure Democratic by
1000. as.
Finally, there is the Seventh dis
trict consisting of Jersey City,
Hoboken, Harrison and Kearney.
Perhaps our Republican friends think
they can carry it. They are welcome
to try. They would not have
thought of trying even, We're it not
for Colonel Wanser's recent surprise
party. But that has given them
some courage. We desire to gently
remind them that they carried the
city in 1890 also for Colonel Wanser.
The official count gave him some
thing like 1850 majority. Yet, in that
same contest the Democracy carried
the city for Edward f. Mcdonald by
700 majority. Hoboken gave Nc
Donald majority of 2,07O; Har-
rison gave 500 Democratic major
ity, and Kearney went Republi-
can by 80 votes. McDonald's net
majority in the territory embraced in
this new district was, therefore, $3.50
votes. 1t seems to us perfectly safe to
set the Seventh district down as surely
democratic by big majority.
Thus we see that in all three Con-
gressional Districts which Hudson
contributes to form, Democratic vic
tory is certain, and Hudson will do
her part towards rolling up the Demo
cratic majority in each.

The Scramble for Appointments.

Ingenious publicists ought to de-
wise some plan whereby the dis
graceful scramble for appointive
places that follows a change of the
national, state or city administra-
ton might be prevented.
From the present outlook every
community in the country is in
danger of being disrupted by con-
tentions growing out Of the aspira-
tons Of Tom, Dick and Harry to
attain office.
1t would be a relief all round if
there were some winnowing process
that would eliminate the worthless
material from the swarms of appli-
cants. And it would be better still
if there were a board of honest and
unselfsh men who would relieve
the executive of the duty of weigh
ing the claims and merits OF the
numerous applicants for places.
