Spreading Campaign Fiction.

The usually correct and conscientious
editor of the Elizabeth Journal" in mis-
zeal for the election of his friend, Foster
NJ. Voorhees,, has allowed himself TO be-
come unfair, to say the least. In Satur-
days issue of his newspaper he vicious
1y attacks Allan L. McDermott, and
brings against him the heinous crime Of
being the paid counsel of race track gam
blers. If there is a man in Hudson coun-
ty, including Mr.. McDermott himself.
who ever denied that Mr.. McDermott did
his best as a lawyer to defend the race
track men when regularly retained in the
ordinary practice of his profession, he is
unknown here. Mr.. McDermott did de-
fend the race track gamblers and as
ISOLATED with him as paid counsel in
that defense, was the Hon. John w.
Griggs, late Governor Of New Jersey and
now Defender in Chief of the war poll
icy of the present National administra-
ton. Yet the Elizabeth Journal sup
ported Mr.. Griggs as the paragon of all
that is good and holy, both in and out Of
politics, and advocated his election in or
der that under his guidance New Jersey
might become a political Utopia.
Consistency, thou art not a Republican
editor!

An Enthusiastic and United Demo-
cracy.

There is no doubt of the attitude of
the Democracy of Hudson county this
fall. II anywhere in the county anyone
entertained the idea that the party was
rent asunder by differences on the cur
rency question, personal animosities or
ambitions or resentment at the failure of
favorites to obtain nominations, that idea
was dispelled on Saturday evening.
Two mass meetings, the like of which
have seldom been seen in this State,
were held, one in Pohlmann's Hall, in the
northern section of the city, and the other
in Bergen Hall, in the southern section.
Crowds Of citizens thronged both halls
to the overlooking point and listened
with enthusiasm to the speakers as they
laid bare the hypocrisy and duplieity of
the Republicans p-retensions to political
virtue.
Ex-Governor Werts presided at one
meeting and Robert Davis at the other,
while on both platforms were men promi-
nently representing every faction which
had heretofore striven at c-ross-purposes
TO the defeat and humiliation of the
great Democratic party. Allan L. McDer-
mott and William D. DAILY on the same
platform extolled each other and pleaded,
each for the election of the other. The
mention Of each name was the signal
for enthusiastic applause, and the recep-
tion which each received when he appear
ed upon the platform was most fattering.
That the Democracy of this county is
solidIy united and prepared to roll up a
majority for the entire Democratic ticket
which win cause the Republicans much
trouble can be no longer in doubt.
Reliable information received from all
sections Of the State indicate that the
same excellent condition of affairs exists
II every county, and that unless all signs
fan IN overwhelming victory for Demo-
cratic principles and the redemption Of
New Jersey is at hand.

AS years of age, 5 feet 101a inches in height and un- assumingly carries around 613 pounds of excess baggage in the form of fat.

'The Cotton King" is next weeks play at Morosco's. George P. Webster, who starred at this house last week, will play Shillinglaw, while the leading role will be given to another newcomer, H. Percy Meldon who will direct future produc- tions at the big opera house, besides play ing in the stock. Meldon has an excellent Eastern reputation, a good stage appear ance. and possesses magnetic personal lty that will soon make him a favorite with the audiences. The plot of the play is an interesting one, replete with strik- ing and exciting incidents the comedy element is clever and amusing, and the scenic features of the order that calls for the ingenuity of the mechanical force. A strong scene shows the machinery and busy operatives of the huge cotton mills in action.

 Probably no city on this continent Is so independent in its criticisms and so discriminating in it's patronage of amuse- ments as is this city of San Francisco, said John Henry Martin, Clay Clement s manager "I have known attractions to come here carrying with them the highest encomiums of the Eastern press, only to find that they were up against a total lack of public approval or the approval of the press, and hence distressing vacuum in the box office. I brought MT. Clement here out of season, and 1 instructed my advance representative to refrain from any rash and reckless promises for MT. Clement as an actor and The New Do- minion as play. We knew well from experience that it made not a particle of difference what other publics had thought or other papers had said about MT. Glenn ent and his play. We knew we must suit the public of San Francisco or take the

Kerbynew, a rich old tar, Father Bernard; Edith Hall as his devoted companion, Little Pete, the cabin boy; Frank McGlynn as the Cover Arthur Boyce as Captain Thompson. New scenery, costumes and effects have been prepared and a superb chorus and aug mented orchestra will lend efficient aid. A new finale for the third act. entitled

Loretto to perfection They have a clever sketch replete with ludicrous situations and duces her songs and dances. Alburtus and Bartram claim the worlds cham pionship when it comes to club swinging. They were here two years ago and made a great success, and they have a more sensational act now than when here be- fore. Ezra Kendall promises an entirely new line of comedy. As a humorist he excels This week he will talk on a num- Der of local subjects. Retained from last weeks bill are Al Leach and the Three Rosebuds, who begin the last week of their engagement.
