Asssssors must be filled by Democrat. and If
the appointment goes TO Miuoiese" e'' ava
r,.,er or Mr.. Parsons is likely to get 1t. Both
are anti Ross Democrats. Mr.. Flsher Is " VI IN
manufacturer while Mr.. Parsons has shu1i

after the job.
Senator Stokes's bills repeating the charter vi

The passage Of Senator Johnsons concurrent
resolution requesting New-Jersey's representa-
t,ves IN Congress to vote for the passage
OF the bill 10 preserve the Palisades leaves
Serators Seweu and Smith and the eight
Cong-essmen no excuse for Indifference or mac
tion. The request amounts to an order from
mon IN close touch with the people whose SEN
+,noents they are yoicing. There were rumors
recently that one or Congressman We're
lukewaru IL not hostile. to the bill III thar
is correc. they might well take the hint now
as later
Governor John W. Griggs has received let
fer from John w Griggs. OF st. Paul, son OF
yohn w Griggs OF Boston congratulating MN
on his election The Governors correspondent
does not say whether ne is a Republican or
Democrat He thinks that they may both pe
descended from the Grygges family, OF Eng

Senator Rogers's Anti-Garb bill is going to
stir I'D some ill-feeling 1t is a copy OF the
pennsylyania law over which there was so
much ruction. Last year Senator Rogers IN
troduced a similar measure Senator Skirm op-
posed It, and when he came up for reelection

". The Mercer Senator is not likely to abate
any Of his hostility to the bill when II comes UP
again.
Senator Bradley is having a bill prepared to
re-enact in constitutional form. the law
knocked out by the Supreme Court prohibiting
the sale of liquor within mile Of Asbury Park
and Ocean Grove.
There is a large grain Of truth in the report
that Governor Griggs feels disposed TO recog-
nize the decent element Of the Democracy in
naming the District Court Judges In Jersey City
and Newark Each city has two courts. One
of the Newark Judges Is Thomas S. Henry. who
incurred the displeasure Of the gang" by
speaking in laudatory terms Of Mr.. Grggs I'M
rnediately after the latter was nominated. Judge
Henry has been on the outs with the Demo-
cratic ring for several years as he was open In
expressing his dislike for their methods. Gov
ernor Griggs will probably reappoint him.
