LAW MAKERS
HARD AT IT
Anti-Spring Election Bill Not
Wanted Outside Of Cities.
Fight On for Boulevard Along
Ocean Groves Front-TrentOn
to Have an Armory-AdJOurn-
ment in Sight.


The present week of the legislature
has been one very negative in charac-
ter. Forty bills we're passed, 16 by the
Senate and "a by the House. A legis-
lative week. however. should not be
judged solely by the number or i'm
portanoe of the bills passed and the
present one witnessed the considera-
ton of at least one topic of vast I'M
porance to the State at large. AS
predicted in the Chronicle last week
a caucus of Republican Senators was
held Monday night Immediately after
the session and the subject of the
abolishment of spring elections
thoroughly discussed. The caucus
also took somewhat the form of a
hearing for a number of professional
political leaders appeared before the
Senators and espoused the proposed
innovation i'll strongest terms. No
very satisfactory conclusion was
reached, however, and although it
was announced at the conclusion
of the caucus that there had been a
change of heart on the part Of the op-
ponents of the measure. yet 1t could
be plainly seen that the matter was
but little nearer solution than before.
The gist of the trouble seems to be
that the representatives from the conn
ties containing large cities are in
favor of the abolishment of the spring
election, while those coming from
counties with more rural population
strenuously oppose the measure. The
feeling is also rapidly gaining ground
that after all it may be merely trick
of Major Carl Lentz TO secure better
hold on Essex County, whatever may
happen to the party throughout the
State.
In the House the same troublesome
subject came gup when Assembiyman
Meeker withdrew his oonglomerated
measure introduced last week and in
troduced another in it's stead, contain
ing a number OF changes, bnt differing
principally in that Justices of the
peace are exempted from its povisions
Mr.. Meeker's efforts to hit or miss the
subject in hand are provoking con-
siderable laughter at his expense ana
hardly anyone considers his bills in
seriousness. If an anti spring election
bill comes from anywhere it will
probably be born in the Senate,
Reapportionment Problem,
That other momentous SUBJECT OF
the present legislature, the reappor-
tionment of the congressional districts
of the State advanced one step this
week in that joint committee was
named to take the matter in hand.
More of the subject is likely to be
heard next week.
