Republican Outlook.

Newark, Oct. 27:-Governor Frank
lin Murphy was a caller at Republican
State headquarters in this city, but
tho purpose of the visit was only tc
talk with Winton O. Garrison, treas-
urer of the State Committee.
Assured as the success of the repub-
lioan party in the State aud county is
felt to be, recent reports have led the
governor and State Chairman Frank
o. Briggs ia regard the outlook as
even more brilliant, so to Justify the
anticipation Of results beyond what
has heretofore been expected.
The State Committee met III the
Trenton headquarters yesterday. Re-
ports from each county were formally
made by ench representative in the
body. Final work of the campaign
were discussed and plans laid to roll
up one of the biggest majorities for
the ticket ever received Ia the State

STOKES IN CAMDEN.

Camden, Oct. 27 :-"Evidently am at
last on South Jersey soil" said Edward
G. Stokes, the Republican candidate for
Governor Tuesday afternoon in the
Camden Theatre, as he faced one of the
largest gatherings of men and women he
has yet addressed during the present
campaign.
That he felt he was among friends and
well-wishers was evidenced by his man
ner during the whole afternoon and even
ing. To those who have not seen him
since that afternoon upon which he ac-
copied the nomination for Governor be
fore the convention, he appeared to be
brisker in his movements, clearer of eye,
ruddler of cheek and of greatly improved
health generally. Those who have heard
him frequently through the campaign
thought he Spoke with more than usual
vigor and put more vim and force into
his arguments.
Well might all this be true, for certain
ly the candidate had everything to inspire
him and spur him to renewed efforts and
energy and to drive from him whatever
chill remained upon him from the few
cool receptions he had received in somt
of the strong Democratic counties he
had recently visited.
