Dunn, of Elizabeth, candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Congress in

yesterday morning about the effort that
is being made, so it is said, to divert
Ale xander May ybaum's and some of his
strength to James E. MARITIME of Plain
field, in order to nominate MARITIME.
Il set out to get the nomination." said
Mr.. Dunn, 'sand l have elected enough
delegates to getin. am sure of seventy
two delegates, while sixty-one votes will
nominate. My success depended mainly
on my own exertions. I do not place
much faith in this whine of Marines
friends that he was betrayed bv the
Union county bosses. I know that SEN
ator Marsh told MARITIME that he was for
me because the people OF Elizabeth
wanted me nominated, and he could not
afford TO act contrary to the wishes of the
people of Elizabeth.
II want NO more interference from out
side. II there is no such interference
will be nominated. l make no threats
and will make none. but If through any
manipulation of people outside the dis
trict the will Of the people who voted to
nominate me is thwarted, then something

by nominating John S. Edwards for mem
Der OF Assembly. Mr.. Edwards was ut
one time. in the dim aud faded past, when n
Republicans held high carnival in this
city. Fire Commissioner. After
he was relegated to private
life he contented himself with
the enjoyment of the lucrative
business of coal dealer. His partner has
the euphonious name of Walker. The
place of business is on Central avenue,
near Kessler's Hall, and Mr.. Edwards re-
sides on Webster avenue
Johnny Macarthur, an ex-Alderman,
was candidate for the Office and nearly
every one believed he would re-
ceive the nomination. When the
Convention nominated Edwards
by vote OF nineteen against fourteen for
MacArthur bitter expressions were in-
dulged in. ara the Convention was de-
nonnced as s'bood!eu one.
Democrats in the district are rejoicing
for they say that anyone can beat Ed
