the Democratic situation related to the selec-
ton of a candidate for Mayor. II is said that the
Democratic programme is to nominate Judge
csottfried Kruger a wealthy brewer. Mr.. Krue-
ger is in Europe, but before his depart
ure he not only declined the proffered nonina-
ton for Mayor. but most decidedly expressed his
preference for James ". Seymour, the present in
cumbent and the defeated Democratic candidate
for Governor last year. The plan. therefore, is
as is said, have the committee usually appoint
ed by conventions to fiji declined nominations

another term, has formally declined To this ten

Democratic party in Newark. This pledge it is
said. Mr. Seymour Will decline 10 make. His nomi-
nation is. however, confidently predicted. II is
noteworthy in this connection that Judge Kruger
in expressing his preference for Mayor Seymour
comes in direct and violent contact with what is
known as the Smith machine" and of which ex-
United States Senator Smith was the owner and
director when he made the fight against Mr. Sey-
rlaour's nomination fo- Governor. The factional
difference which then existed was greatly in

Ii thought yesterday in Newark that al
though Samuel kalisch. the well known criminal
lawyer, had not consented 10 accept the Demo-
cratic nomination for State Senator, he would be
almost compelled. by party pressure, TO be the
opponent of Mr.. Bachelor.
But, after all. the storm centre of Essex County
politics is Major Carl Lentz, who is slated for the
Republican nomination for Sheriff, arc who has
been almost unremittingly for many years the
