TRENTON LAwn4AKnes.
Buttonholed by Law and Order People
and Race Track Men.


TRENTON, Jan. 27.-The Law and
Order Society of Hudson county is de-
termined to cripple the Gutenberg race
track badly if it cannot destroy it alto
gether, and the news that the terms of a
bill to be introduced in the legislature
had been agreed upon by the managers
of all the tracks In the state has aroused
the society to instantaneous action, and
its representatives are here In force. Be-
tween the law and order people on one
hand and the race track men on the
other the average legislators lot is not a
happy one.
If the passage of the bill cannot be
prevented, every effort possible will be
made to so amend it as to deprive Gut
tenberg aud Gloucester of the right to
race i'll the winter. Heretofore the Law
and Order people have looked to Gov
ernor Albeit to kill any bill for the
legalization of pool selling; butt the pres
emit Legislature is so constituted that the
governor is powerless In the matter.
The best that he can do is to veto the
bill
If the statements of the racing people
are correct, they have enough votes to
pass it over his head in a jiffy. Little
dOuDt Is entertained OF their ability 10
do this. Long Branch interests suffered
greatly from the closing of the Mon
mouth track last summer, and the rep
resentatives from that part of the state
will therefore support the bill.
The senate passed bills providing for
the retention in Office of police officials
during good behavior, and giving the
} common pleas courts power to grant
liquor licenses in boroughs.
! Among the new senate bills is one by
Senator Miller, directing the governor tc
, appoint commission of three to visit
Holland and report upon its system OF
, sea walls with view of devising means
, to protect the Jersey coast property. The
; sum of $4,000 is asked for in the bill tc
defray the expenses of the commission.
Governor Albeit renominated Charles
, NJ. Jennison for lay judge i'll Somerset
county.
The new house bills include one fol
the appointment of new railroad com
:, mission, to consist Of three persons, who
shall serve five years, at "A salary each q
$1,000. The cost Of the commission j:
limited to $50 per year, ard til,
u whole expense is to he borne by til,
railroads of the state proportionately
Il There is q bill in also for the creation
- OF a bureau of agriculture.

Appealing for Calhoun,

A petition, asking Governor Rey-
nolds to pardon William Calhoun, who
was convicted of felonlous assault and
has served about four years In New
Castle Jail, is in circulation, and Is
being generally signed by the people.
Since Calhoun's incarceration his life
has been exemplary, and there is every
reason to believe that no has thorough,
ly reformed and would lead a different
life If sot at liberty. The four years
he has been imprisoned Is thought to
be quite sufficient punishment for the
BRINE for which he was convicted.
