Every day during the last four weeks
the daily papers have told their readers
that the army will move on Cuba to-
morrow. If the entire volunteer army is
in the condition of that portion encamped
at Pennsgrove, they are in condition to
move only after nightfall, being unpro-
yided with clothing to cover their naked
ness The truth is that the only State
troops which went into the service equip
ped to move on Cuba or any other place,
were the Jersey boys, who were all ready
for any duty. The war department
makes this explanation of The delay in
moving =
The State Governors reported that 80
per cent of their militia was equipped and
armed. As matter of fact only 40 per
cent of the State militia volunteered, and
the other SO per cent. kept their uniforms.
Their places were filed by men who had to
be supplied entirely"
The above does not apply to Jersey
troops, and the War Department shoull
say SO.

The Republican Congressional Conven-
tion for this district will be held at Mill
vile on Thursday, July IA, next. Elec-
tions to choose delegates will be held in
The various wards, townships and boroughs
on Monday, July II. Until very recently
the only candidate mentioned was the
present representative, Mr.. Loudenslager,
but within a week two candidates have
appeared, ex-senator E. L. Ross, of Cape
May, and lawyer John Fort, of Camden.
Some of the Republican editors have
recently taken time to inform themselves
as 10 Mr.. Loudnnslager's transactions with
the Woodbury. Heights Land Company,
and if they persist, and awake the dor
mant honesty in the party there is hope
that the infiictlon which the district has
sustained by his presence in Congress,
will cease with the present. session.

While Only Three Republicans Voted
Against the Administration Meas
ure-The Populist and Fusion Vote
Was About Equally Divided.
Washington, June 16.-By vote of
209 to 81 the house of representatives
yesterday afternoon adopted the New
lands resolution providing for the an
nexation of Hawaii. The debate, which
has continued without interruption
since Saturday, has been one of the
most notable of this congress, the pro-
posed annexation being considered of
great commercial and strategic i'm
portance by it's advocates and being
looked upon by its opponents as in
volving a radical departure from the
long established policy of this country,
and likely to be followed by the in
auguration of a pronounced policy of
colonization, the abandonment of the
Monroe doctrine and participation in
International wrangles. More than
half hundred members participated in
the debate.
From party standpoint the result
was awaited with the keenest interest.
The Republicans presented practically
a unanimous support to the resolu-
tions, but three Republican members
voting in opposition. In the Damo-
cratic ranks the division upon the guess
tion was more marked, Is Democrats
voting for annexation. The vote in
support of the resolutions was made UP
of 179 Republicans. Is Democrats, s
Popunsts and 4 fusionists The vote
against annexation comprised II DEM
ocrats. 8 Republicans, Populists and
4 fusionists.
Yesterdays session began at 10
O'clock, and the debate continued seven
hours. Few members were upon the
floor until late Ia the afternoon, and the
galleries had few occupants. AS the hour
for voting drew near, however, menu
bers began taking their places, and
there were few more than score of
absentees when the first roll call was
taken. The announcement of the vote
upon the passage of the resolutions
was cheered upon the floor and ap-
plauded generally by the spectators.
The resolutions adopted, In pream-
BILE, relate the offer of the Hawaiian re-
public to cede all of it's sovereignty and
absolute title to the government and
crown lands and then by resolution ae-
cept the cession and declare the ISL
ands annexed. The resolutions provide
for commission of five, at least two of
whom shall be resident Hawaiians, to
recommend to congress such legislation
as they may deem advisable. The pub
lie debt of Hawaii not to exceed 81
1000, is assumed. Chinese immigra-
ton is prohibited, all treaties with other
powers are declared null, and it is pro-
vided that until congress shall provide
for the government of the islands. all
civil, judicial and military powers now
exercised by the officers of the existing
government shall be exercised in such
manner as the president shall direct,
and he is given power 70 appoint per-
sons to put in effect provisional goy-
eminent for the islands.

The Supreme Court in decision rem
dered last Monday, decided that the anti
gambling amendment was constitutionally
adopted. The Court in it's decision said it
was sufficient for the amendment to have
received a majority of the votes counted
instead of majority of the votes cast.
The court holds that the Constitution does
not take into consideration votes that have
been Improperly cast and rejected ON that
account.
Justice Depue, in rendering his decision,
said that the Legislature was supreme in
detern lining the result or providing for its
determination, and that the courts were
powerless to interfere.
Justice Garrison fled dissenting opin-
ion, in which he took exception to this
latter proposition, but agreed with the
main proposition that the amendment had
been legally adopted.

New Jersey promptly and unconditlon-
ally furnished the quota asked for under
the Presidents first call for volunteers, and
her regiments have no superiors She
stands ready to answer all further de-
mands in the same patriotic manner. Yet
the State has been almost entirely ignored
in the distribution of military appoint
ments from civil life Senator Sew ell was
made Major General but was reluctantly
obliged to resign the position, because he
could NO. retain his present Office along
with it, and his two sons have been given
desirable staff commissions. Perhaps il
the Sewell family was larger, New Jersey
might have received more consideration.

The solid for-a-fourth- term Republicans
of this district held a harmony party at
Avalon last Sunday, and declared that the
district is solid for Loudenslager. Those
present from this county were: Collector
of Internal Revenue, Moffett ; Surrogate
Dubois; editor and County Collector A. S
Barber Senator Stranger, and ex-Judge
John M. Moore. From present indications
it is not likely that the weekday Conven-
tion of chosen representatives to be held
at MillYille on July IA, will be as solid fol
