DAVID BAIRD'S BOOM.
Offensive and Repulsive the Tribune" Says,
Unit to be Senator.

Offensive and Repulsive the Tribune Says,
Unfit to be Senator.
From the N. Y. Tribune of Tuesday,.
''Every serious situation has its humor-
Gus side. The appearance Of David Baird,
of Camden county, as candidate for
United States Senator, although offens-
lively and repulsively premature, in view
of the painful and pathetic conditions
which exist, and made especially so by
there being no vacancy in the Senate, is
one of those eccentricities of politics which
has provoked satire and humor in about
equal proportions all over New Jersey.
Mr. Baird's ability to manage a primary
meeting and to manipulate county con-
vention is on every hand conceded; his
good fellowship among good fellows is
nowhere denied; his appointment to a
place on the State Board of Assessors is
largely regarded as a compliment TO his
genius for politics and the support of his
friends; but when it comes to considering
him as United States Senator, it is i'm
possible for anybody who knows him to be
serious, and the opinion prevails that he
himself must regard the proposition tc
make him the successor of Senator Sewel
as life-sized practical joke, with unlimited
capacities for expansion. 1t was, indeed
difficult for any Republican of dignity and
prominence in the councils of his party tc
regard this proposition seriously until il
became menace as one of the tributarie:
to the election of Charles Asa Francis a:
President of the Senate
Congressman Leudenslager and the
South Jersey Senators and Assemblymer
are reported to favor the offensive anC
repulsive candidacy of Baird
