WINS
HIS FIG H T.
Reelected County Chairman by
FOrty-TWO Majority Essex
Committee Is His.

NEWARK, Dec. 23:-Major Carl
Lentz, in Newark, last night, was re-
! elected chairman of the Republican
County Committee of Essex. This is
the fifteenth time the major has been
so chosen. He was never so deter
minedly opposed as this year. His
election was, however, decisive. He
received us votes as against 76 cast
for Lathrop Anderson, the Colby can
didate, and one for William Mungle.
Out of the 203 members of the
committee 1875 were present. The
result was foreshadowed by the cleo
ton of A. f. Dalrymple as temporary
chairman. He received 1l5 as
against n for the opposition candi-
date, William p. Martin.
The nominating speeches We're
rather tart, and for a time after the
vote had been taken it was believed
there might be Il split in the commit
tee, but this was settled by William
Lord, city counsel of Orange, who
had supported Major Lentz, asking
the opposition what they intended to
do.
Mr.. Martin, who has led the Col
by forces, replied that where every
thing was fair and above-board and
for the best interests of the people
the minority would abide by the vote.
The result was known from the
primaries, as, although Major Lentz
was badly beaten there by Mr.. Colby
for control of the county convention,
the republicans split their tickets and
voted for Lentz delegates to the
county committee. This will force
the Colby men to go into the primar-
les next fall again and seek to con-
troll the county conventions to nomin-
ate assemblymen favorable to a
limited franchise and equal tax plat
form.

ORGANIZE LEAGU E
Officers of New Club Has Not Here
tOfOre Been Recognized as
Leaders.

NEWARK, Dec. 23;-The move
ment recently started among demo-
Gratis of Essex county, to establish a
permanent and far-reaching organ
ization with the object of rehabili-
tating the party, has taken definite
shape in the formation of the Demo-
cratic League.
Permanent officers of the league
were chosen at a meeting held at
Newark, Thursday night, as follows:
President, Simon P. Northrup, of
Newark; vice-presidents, Thomas A.
Davis, Orange; Dr.. Samuel e. Rob
ertson, Newark; Henry Fl. Goodrich,
Nutley; secretary, Franklin H. Halli-
day, Newark; treasurer, Edward M.
Waldron, Newark; sergeant-at-arms,
Frank Freeman, Newark; board of
trustees, Edward Zuzi, William H. F.
Fielder, Walter J.. Knight, Joshua
Brindley, Samuel Kalisch, John F..
Sinnott, James M. Trimble, Francis
Child, Patrick N. Ryan; executive
committee, David T. Howell, Julian
A. Gregory, William P. O'Rourke,
William c. Fielder, John H. Donnel-
ly, DR.. Charles f. Kraemer, Leon
Berkowitz, Edward Maher, j. Harry
Hull and Nelson Abeel.
The plan of the organization is to
invite all factions of the party and
proceed on an upbuilding movement
that contemplates the maintenance
of the league as a central body with
off-shoots in the form of ward and
township leagues to be established in
every section of Essex county.
For the most part the active men
in this movement have not been
prominently connected with the man
agement or lack thereof of the demo-
cratic party in recent years.

GREAT FIND
New Discovery on Nome
 Tundra is Good

The third great strike has been made on the second beach or Nome tundra The strike was between Gold Bug and Jess creeks. The latter creek is the one upon which Charles D. Lane and Major L. H. French recently purchased a claim, paying largo price, said to be SI25, ,OOO. The new strike proves the gold bearing sands on the tundra to be far greater extent than was at first believed or generally b ped.
 The new strike is in TWO feet of ruby sand on bedrock and it $ said immedi. ately above bedrock there is layer oi six inches in which the gold fairly glitters.
 Speaking of the strike the Nome Colder Digger says:
 "lt means more to Nome and the vicinity than even the famous Little Creek strike of last year. Instead oi opening up merely thls one creek it means the development of the vast stretch of tundra lying between Snake and Penny rivers. Up o this time the tundra has been overlooked. This new strike and the other recently made in the same locality will give fresh i'm petus to the development of the tundra to the west of Nome."
