CHANGING over this summary, can any
one truthfully and without prejudice say
that Senator Vreeland's record in the
Senate this year, cannot be excelled in
its cleanliness, straightforwardness and
uprightness? If Morris County is to be
as well and faithfully represented in the
Senate during the next few years as she
has been in the past term, she will be
most fortunate.
Mr.. Vreeland is "a capable, conscien-
tious gentleman Of high character
Banner.
Senator Vreeland's choice by Gov
ernor VOORHEES, for Law Judge of Morris
leaves the field open in that County for a
new Senator. Mr.. Vreeland has been
one of the most useful members of the
Senate in the three years he has repre-
sented Morris. He is a Republican of
much force and ability, and withal a
liberal partisan. .-NeaU York Press.
Governor VOORHEES, has nominated
for Law Judge of Morris comfy State
Senator John B. Vreeland, and his
prompt confirmation will follow the
announcement in tie Senate on Wednes-
day. Senator Vreeland, whose term will
expire this year, is one of the ablest and
most influential members of the upper
branch of the Legislature, and will fill
his new Office with that dignity and
stern impartiality that is its due. Cam

Senator John B. .fVreeland was nomi-
mated Monday evening by Governor
VOORHEES, for law judge of this county in
place of Willard w. Cutler, whose term
expires the first of April. The nomina-
tion was confirmed yesterday by the
Senate. This is an excellent appointment
and highly satisfactory to the people of
the county. Senator Vreeland is well
qualified for the judgeship, as to his
education, experience and uprightness -
Boonton Bulletin,
Senator John Beam Vreeland was
named by Governor VOORHEES, for judge
of Morris county and the Senate at once
confirmed him. Mr.. Vreeland will not
take his seat on the bench until April 1 ,
so it will be unnecessary for him to re-
sign his seat in the Senate.
Mr.. Vreeland was born in Newark in
1852. He has been prominent in politics
in Morris county, having served there as
deputy county clerk, acting prosecutor
of the pleas, and also city counsel Of
Morristown. He was elected to the State
Senate in 1856 1Sy ION True american.
Senator John B. Vreeland, whose
nomination was for law judge of Morris
county reached the Senate just after ad-
journment on Monday night, was sent in
again on Wednesday and promptly con-
firmed in executive session. The ap-
pointment is an admirable one, repre-
senting the better element in the politics
of the county. 1t meets with the ap-
proval of the masses in the county and
pleases prominent Republicans and
Democrats alike throughout the State
Mail and Erpress.
The nomination of Senator John B.
Vreeland as Judge of Morris County,
which was sent to the Senate by the Gov
ernor Tuesday, was promptly confirmed.
The Senator, who is very popular, was
warmly congratulated by the Senators,
irrespective of party, and other friends.
as soon as the Senate adjourned. He
will not resign his seat in the Senate un-
til day or SO before the time fixed for
his assumption of the judicial office,
which is or April 1st. He can act as a
legislator until that time. His confrma-
ton as Judge does not vacate his present
office. 1t is only when his commission is
issued and when he is sworn into Office,
that he becomes disqualified from acting
as Senator.
From newsboy to Senator and then
to a Judge of a county court, is quite a
rise in life. Senator Vreeland not many
years ago was newsboy in the city of
Newark. He was born in Newark, and
is of Dutch ancestry. The term of his
new Office is five years and the salary $3,-
600 year.-Trenton State Gazette.
