MIDDLESEX
Al. TRENTON.
Or. Henry and Mr.. FOrdyCe SpOk'
en- of as Likely ChairmeTI
Of Important Committees.

Trenton, Dec. 5:-Just now Presi-
dent-to he Gross of the senate and
Speaker to- be Avis of the assembly
are wrestling with the perplexing
problem of their committees.
\ 1t is d long time since the problem
has been such q hard II for the two
slated officers as it is this year, for
the number of old members who have
returned to the Legislature aud con-
slider themselves entitled to the best
Craftsmanship is out of all proportion
to the number of desirable commit
tees. It is said that the two presiding
officers will rid themselves of some Of
tine trouble before them by re-appoint-
ing, as far as possible, those chairmen
of the committees Iof the last legis-
latuIe who will serve in tho next,
But as several of these chairmen were
not returned the proplem Will still be
hard enough to keep them worrying
for some time to come.
There is one COMMITTEES in each
house, however, which will give
neither officer any trouble, and that is
the judiciary. The leader of each
chamber, by an unwritten law, is
always the chairman CT this commit
tee, and at the next sessions Senator
Bradley, Of Camden, and Assembly
man Edward d. Duffield, OF Essex,
will be the heads of the two commit
tees,
In the last Legislature Senator Gross
headed this committee in the senate
and Everett Colby in the house. Mr..
Gross is, of course, out of the problem,
but Mr.. Colby increases the perplexl-
ty, MS it il expected that ne will get q
Craftsmanship of equal Importance and
his name 10 mentioned in connection
with that of the Committee on Rail
roads and Canals. Thomas Colclough,
of Mercer, headed this committee last
winter, but he was not returned this
fall.
George Cook, of Bergen, was the
last chairman of the Banks and Insur.
ance Committee, and Edward Birk-
holz, the next men. her Of last sessions
committee, would like to succeed him,
AS he m from Essex, it is thought
that the ohairmanshin may go to DIR.
Frank Q. Henry, Of Perth Amboy
the only remaining member OF las
Tear's committee in the next house.
The elevation Of Mr.. Hillery, o
Morris, to the senate leaves the desir
able Craftsmanship of the Committee OF
ICorporations to be filled. The othel
members of this committee last win
ter were b. Frank Buck, of Gambler
land Alexander r. Fordyce, Of Mid
dlesex, and Herbert w. Taylor, of Els
sex, and it is probable that eitho'
Buck or Fordyce will head it thil
year. Mr.. Dalrymple, of Passaic
was the chairman of the Eduoationa
Committee, and the indications ar
that he will head it again.

OF Wide Interest.

Brede, Wis, July lS.-Special-
Chas. Y. Peterson, justice of the peace
for Oconto county, has delivered a
judgment that is of interest to the
whole United States. Put briefly, that
Judgment is, "Dodd's Kidney Pills
are the best Kidney medicine on the
markt today"
And Mr. Peterson gives his reason
for this judgment. He says: Last
winter | had an aching pain in my
back which troubled me very much.
In the morning could hardly straigh-
ten my back. did not know what it
was but an advertisement led me to try
Dodd's Kidney Pills. After taking one
box | can only say they have done
more for me than expected, as | feel
a we'll nOw'as ever | did before.
Pain in the back is one of the first
symptoms of Kidney disease. If not
cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills it may
develop into Bright's Disease, Diabe-
ties, Rheumatism or some of the other
deadly forms of Kidney disease.
