specsai to ths Jersey CITY Ne.ss.

OCT. 10, lS9B.-HeSterday
was the last day for fling certificates Of
nomination and petitions naming candi-
dates for Congress and electors. The law
provides that these shall be filed with
the Secretary of State at least twenty
days previous to the election. 1t requires
that they shall be filed for ali candidates
for office to be filed by voters of the en-
tire State or any district or division
thereof greater than a single county.
As Hudson County embraces all of the
Seventh Congressional District, 1t is con-
tended by the election officers there thai
it is not obligatory on them to file these
certificates or petitions. Essex County
also embraces an entire Congressional
District. but certificates are always filed.
When the law was passed in 1892 no
single county comprised a Congressional
Distrist, but since that time the State has
been redistricted.
Hudson County has made its nominal
tons and they are included in the list
given herewith.
The National Democrats have named
candidates in all but the First District. In
the Fourth District Mahlon Pitney, the
Republican nominee. has been placed on
the ticket of the gold Democrats. This
Will help along the good work of defeat
ing Gus Cutler, who is trying so hard
to get a Congressional seat. The Fourth
District has been the only dangerous sill
yer spot in the State, and with the gold
Democrats and Republicans united Cut
ler's defeat Is almost assured. Cutler is
the poor old soul who has tried his luck
with all the new Populistic schemes that
n a xrc rrnronfad fhnr4cn1xnc r1rfn hts
career.
All the present Representatives in Con-
gress have been renominated, and the
present outlook is that all VIII be returned
Prohibition parties have placed, in nomi-
nation candidates in nearly every district.
