OH SUCH REFORM
Pagan and Hoboken Scre-
heads Propose a New
Democratic Party.
THEY ARE DESPERATE
Prominent Democrat Shows
How Absurd Is the Pro
posed Movement.
THEY ARE DESPERATE

When the announcement was made IN
the organ Of the Republican party 1asrs
night tfat number of Democrats had
met at the home Of former Mayor Of Ido-.
boken. Lawrence Fagan, ito plan a re-
organization of the Democratic party :,
great deal Of speculation was INDUCED
in as to who these gentlemen were.
When the names were learned a broad
smile swept over the faces of the Demo-
Gratis. The impression prevailed that the
only ones of any strength present were
Lawrence Pagan, Fred A. Verdon, ex-
Mayor Hoos, Mayor George Bergkamp of
West Hoboken, Emil Groth and John T.
O'Brien. 1t is generally believed that
these gentlemen viii have much difficulty
getting together enough material to af-
feet the present party. A prominent
Democrat in speaking about the matter
today said
1T is amusing to hear that a number of
Democrats congregated at the home of
Larry Pagan in Hoboken, to plan a new
Democratic party. Why at the home of
Pagan? If any disgruntled Democrats
wished to unravel their tales of woe, why
didn't tsley meet at the home of a Demo-
crat? sssrely no one is foolish enough to
regard Barry Pagan as a Democrat Why
he is a fusionist and even as that stripe
of ANIMAL does not cut much figure in
politics. witness the defeat of his un-
derling, Verdon. last election.
Some one is made to say that the
Democratic party is discredited in the
county Well now why don't they show
when and where and how. / don't know
of any Republican or fusionist who IS
holding office hereabouts now, except
Mayor Pagan of this city. and that was a
peculiar freak of the campaign that
proves nothing except the existence Of
luck Every Democrat on the last ticket
was elected with the single exception re-
ferred to.
ssThey are afraid that the Democratic
party is in no condition to enter the corr-
ing contest. 1t would be interesting to
know how Larry Pagan is to help The
Democrats Their plans are not TO be
made known for a time. Why? think
they are very much afraid of being dis
credited to an extent more alarming than
that their Imagination places the Leno-
cratic party in now. You may rest as
sured that when the next campaign opens
the Republicans and fusionists viii have
to face the same Democratic party they
have always faced, only a little more OF
it and a good deal stronger.
The fact Is the opponents of the Demo-
cratic party are desperate. This is Their
a last step and it will fail.
