NEW-JERSEY Is FIGHTING.
BOUND TO SHAKE OFF CORRUPT DE
MOCRACY


COUNTY OF A CRIME-RIDpEN STATE.
The Republican. of New Jersey enter upon tho last
week Of the campaign with the full assurance that
for their Of hard work they will be handsomely
rewarded and that this reward will be OF a nature
thew scarce dared hope for when the campaign was
,eeun II is safe to say that every Republican
yorker I'm the State confidently awaits the coming OF
Election Day with the belief that John Kean, IT, VIII
h. declared Governor OF New.Jorsey THIS 1eeihs OF
security In success at the polls does not In an! way
c.usc relaxation OF effort to bring out every Repub
liean vote and to influence every doubtful voter 70
give support to the Republican ticket
From figures now In tie possession OF the Rcpnb-
ucan state Committee, the estimate is made that the
n,ur,uv for John Kcan In New-Jersey this fall Will
s.. between 5000 and 5000. This hopeful outlook
for Republican success Is Justified By careful can
ys>s made BY tho state Committee In each OF the
twenty one counties.
The State Republican canvass has never before
leen carried on thoroughly Us 1t has In the last
few weeks. Republicans who have watched the work
~ their party since It was organized away back IN
1855 are free in c0ncssng that the present hght Tor
good government In the State. and for wise admn'
.tr,ton of National anuirs has never been equnled
in their memory. Every city. town. borough and
hamlet hns received repeated visits from able Re
puican speakers who have discussed the issues OF the
campaign clearly and honestly.
New.Je~seys election law provides for house-to
house canvass for the registry Of voters. Nv visiting
.v.rv hou.e IN the several election districts It would
sos smposMbe 10 the casual observer that any voters
should be missed BY the registry clerks II has been
found however, that the most careful Work can
not prevent errors and omissions IN the registry -lts
Iorunt servants left IN charge Of houses during the
absence Of the occupants fail 10 understand me I'm
portance Of answering fully the question put to them
nv the CLERKS and gve evaslve answers. and thus
<hsir OF
the same name living IN one house have been unable
10 vote because the registry clerks failed TO obtain
their names The only way for Reptoatrans In
NswJesey to know that they can vote for Harrison
and Reid for them to present themselves IN person
before the election clerks registration CAV. ana
ascertain II they are regularly registered. Tuesday
November I. Is the last registry day In New-Jersey
II Is the duty Of every Jcrseyman 70 satisfy nim'en
on that day that he Is registered.
The Republicans OF Somerset County are sure to DO
