draw closer the strong ties of mutual
affection which bind together the old

HOT FIGHT IN NEW JERSEY.
Democrats Making a Desperate Ef-
fort to Regain Control


New York, Nov. 3.-The gubernatorial
campaign in New Jersey was brought
to close last night with the leaders
of both parties claiming victory for
their respective candidates. 1t was one
OF the most stubborn fought in the
state. the Republicans leaving no stone
unturned to hold the state machinery,
which they have controlled for nearly
a decade, while the Democrats strug-
gled to take it from them Both sides
are now claiming victory. The Repub-
licans base their hopes on two things;
first, the large majority which must
be wiped out by the opposition: and,
second, on the fact that they think the
voters of the state are pleased at the
prosperous condition of affairs in the
nation, and will return a Republican
Governor as an evidene of their in
dorsement of the national administra-
tion and as an assurance to the pres
ent head of the administration that
they have confidence in him. 1t was
principally on the latter issue that the
Republicans made their fight.
The Democrats claim victory chiefly
on the personal popularity of their can
didate for Governor, James M. Sey-
mour. He IS very popular with the
working classes, and his strength is ac-
knowledged by his opponents. He has
thrice been elected Mayor of Newark
by large majorities.
Both state committees have COM
piled tables made up from reports from
various counties of the state. The Re-
publicans by their figures show that
Franklin Murphy, their candidate for
Governor who is also chairman of the
committee, will be elected by about 10,-
900 majority.
The table of the chairman of the
Democratic State Committee shows
that Mayor Seymour will have about
5000 majority

New York, Nov. 3.-The feature of
the local political campaign to-day
was the active part taken in it by the
pastors of the churches. Thirty-one
pastors. clergymen and two leaders of
independent church societies advertised
themselves to speak on the issues of
the election, and all of these clergymen
took for their subjects the alleged
administration of the present city
officers. Rabbi Schulman, the one
Jewish priest, whose sermon was re-
ported, urged on his hearers the sup
port of the fusion ticket because of
the revelations concerning vice in the
tenement districts.
All the Protestant pastors reported,
except two, talked for the fusion tick
ct, asserting that vice and unsanitary
conditions existed and a change was
needed. The exceptions were DR.. David
G. Wylie of the Scotch Presbyterian
Church and Rev. DR.. Van deWater of
ST. Andrews Episcopal Church, who
advised their congregations to examine
the two tickets closely and vote for
the best men on them. Henry Frank,

Ducey Alone for Shepard.
The Rev. Father J. Ducey of St Leo's
Roman Catholic Church was alone in
those reported who spoke on the cleo
ton for the Shepard side. One of the
features of the fusion combination has
been the work of the womans cam
paign committee. A report issued to-
day says this committee had distrib-
uted several hundred thousand copies
in English and German of a pamphlet
purporting to be an expose of vice in
the city. Democrats also had a wo-
mans campaign committee actively at
work during the canvass, but no report
of its labors has yet appeared.
While the fusion campaign prac-
tically closed last night a few meet

and Monday night. Senator Depew is

Democrats Met Last Night.
The Democratic campaign was car
rled on with vigor tonight. the party
leaders having engaged five theaters,
ana from the stages of these the ora
tors cheered their supporters with
words of coming victory
The Democrats intended to carry the
work up to the last moment, and to-
day have not changed their forecast,
which is that Mr.. Shepard will receive
majority in the greater city of about
$4,000

County Committee to-day repeated his

Gen. Botha, who had been joined by

guard Oct. 80 on the march and cap
tured two guns. but was unable to re-
tain them Col. Benson fell mortally
wounded early in the fight.
Mai Wools- Sampson took command,
collected the convoy and took up po-
sition for defense about 500 yards from
entertainments prepared by the Beers.
The captured guns were so situated
that neither side could touch them.
The Beers made desperate efforts to

charging repeatedly right up to the
British lines and being driven back
each time with heavy loss. The defense
was stubbornly and successfully main
tanned through the whole of the fol-
lowing day and the succeeding night,
until Col. Barter who had marched
all night from Bushfnan's kop, brought
relief in the morning of Nov /. The
Beers then retired. Their losses are

HAWAIIANS WANT CHINESE.
Sugar Planters Find Their Labor
Necessary.

Washington. Nov. 3.-Authority for
coins into corresponding coins of the
United States, and for the immigra-
ton of a limited number of Chinese
laborers, conditioned upon their en-
gaging in agricultural pursuits only
during their residence in the territory
upon. ceasing to be farmers, are the
chief recommendations of Mr.. H. E.
Cooper, acting governor of Hawaii, in
his annual report just made public.
The employment of Chinese and
Japanese by the planters" the report
says. never has. and never will, in
terfere with either American skilled
or unskilled labor but II an ample
supply of desirable labor can be OBJ
tanned it means millions of dollars
spent for machinery. buildings. ma
terials. tools. steel and iron and other
supplies of American manufacture.
Since annexation the immigration of
unskilled laborers has practically ceas-
ed. while many of the Chinese and
Japanese have returned to their ma
tive countries. Between June IA, 1900,
and Aug. 81, 1901, 4,079 Japanese have
left the territory, and while only 589
have arrived. All sugar plantation
stocks, consequently, have fallen far
below their former value, and this has
had the effect of producing a strin-
gency in the money market from which
many have suffered loss. If no relief
is forthcoming the most disastrous
results will follow. 1t is a physical
impossibility for the Anglo-Saxon race
satisfactorily to perform the severe la
Dor required in the sugar fields Ha-
waii, therefore. is entitled to legisla-
tion favorable to its greatest prosper
ity 4"
