II is the individual votes which foot up the hun

win handsomely without the aid of Indifferent

New-York tribune., 1901-11-04

That Franklin Murphy is such man is con-
ceded by the bitterest political adverssries who
have known him either in a business, personal
or social way. He is not a rr1elight hero-just
a plain citizen. but Of that temperament which
makes him his severest critic. As Governor
Of New-Jersey he will do his best TO give the
State an administration guided by intellect and
governed by conscience. Every Republican.
every independent voter. yes and every Demo-
crat whose partisanship isn't paramount TO all
other considerations, can vote for him with alb
solute confidence that no act of his VIII bring
the blush of shame TO Jerseymen proud OF their

New-York tribune., 1901-11-04

There always are stay at homes, even in the
most exciting and critical times, and ii is this
element which often upsets all calculations
The results Of observations intended solely TO
obtain the actual facts indicate to-day that
Franklin Murphy's plurality will be not less than
100a0 with the probability that il will reach a
much higher figure But a few absentee Re-
publicans in every election district OF the State
might wipe out that plurality and leave him
stranded. To-day ana tomorrow are the times
to think over this; on Wednesday it will he too
late. Individual action is necessary because
except in Hudson County, mans neighbors are
not allowed to vote for him.

New-York tribune., 1901-11-04

About James NJ Seymour, the Democratic
candidate, II is unnecessary TO say anything
bitter or cruel. Personally he is honest man.
but the mcrobe Of ambition has turned his head.
"JoIlying+' and playing TO the gallery have been
his chief aids in pushing forward in politics. He
has rarely II ever. dared have, for pUblfca-
ton, positive views on anything; but he agreed
with pretty nearly everybody in his semi
private conferences and talks And talk about
his independence is all poppycock. After Sen
ator Smiths money and influence helped elect
him Mayor Of Newark, Mr.. Seymour became
independent solely because he wanted TO sup
plant the Smith machine with one of his own.
Was MI Seymour independent OF the New
ark brewers when he appointed his Excise
Board, and stood by silent while II was under
deserved criticism? Was he Independent OF
the Trolley Trust in the appointment Of Tax
Commissioners who received no urging or re-
buke from him while they were lodging their
duty in the matter Of taxing the trust2
To say that Mr.. Seymour made his own ap-
,o,utnents is to reflect on his character
and intelligence. The police justices named by
him for instance drew upon themselves the
severe censure Of the grand jury. and the unfit
ness Of other appointees might be demonstrated
II any public end were TO be served by doing so.
No. there isn't any Of talking about Mr.
Seymour's independence If he became Gov
ernor he would go into the State House bur
dened with obligations TO E. F. c. Young. the
trolley 1nagnate to Bob Davis, and to other
distinguished statesmen Of that ilk. Those
who don't want 10 see M Seymour struggling
with The conflicting feelings Of obligations to the
bosses backing him, his own further ambitions,
and sense of duty TO the public will be doing
him real service by voting for Franklin Muir
ply. Mr.. Murphy isn't owned by anybody; he
will go into office under pledges TO nobody, and
he can be relied upon to do his duty to the
State TO the fullest measure Of his ability

Everybody in New-Jersey has made up MS
mind as TO whether he wishes to have Franklin
Murphy or James NJ Seymour as Governor, ana
il is perfectly apparent that an overwhelming
majority prefer the former. But opinions and
good wishes do not carry elections. 1t does not
count at all TO have man shout enthusiastical-

TO FLOAT THE OLD rlAlNE.

The man who has taken the con-
tract for raising the American battle
ship Maine, which was blown up and
sunk in the harbor OF Havana in
1898, one Newton F. Che amberlain,
OF Chicago, is quoted by the papers
of that city as saying that the great
war ship was not SO badly damaged
as is generally supposed; that they
expect to have her aHoat some time
next fall, and that when it is floated
it will be possible to make her SER
viceable ship, with proper repairs.
It is to be presumed that this state
ment by Mr.. Chamberlain is based
upon careful examinations by compe-
tent divers. He says it has been
found that the Maine has sunk no
deeper in the mud bottom of the bay; !;
that the machinery has not been mat
orally damaged, having been all the
time covered with water. and that the
$5OO,O0O stock of ammunition will be
saved intact. The vessel, he says fur
ther, lies on an even keel and has suf-
fered no strains. The methed of
raising will be to build dam reach
ing to the top of the water, complete
ly around the wreck; then pump
out the water and repair the hole in
the bow of the Maine. When this
is done and other possible leaks stop
ped, the water will be permitted te
flow in the dam, and then it is expect
ed the ship will right herself anc
float The water over the wreck i.
only 81! feet Geep.
If the plan proves to be successful
it ought to be- possible to get NOR,
light upon the cause of the Name ex
ploslon. No explanation or theory
, yet broached has proven entirely sat
isfactory. It is perhaps too late tt
locate the real criminals, but not to,
late to exonerate some upon whom
suspicious have been cast.~if they ar,
innocent. Minneapolis Tribune.
