Many have been held, but none were
more expeditions or more harmonious
than that Monday afternoon in Vine
land when Louis H. Miller and B.
Frank Buck were unanimously re.
nominated as Republican candidates
for members of the General Assembly.
1t was not pleasant day. The rain
came down at intervals, but there was
large representation present from
all parts of Cumberland county.

politan Hall, not very prepossessing
place. but she most pretentious audi

chairman of the Assembly Republican

vention to order, and H. L. Tyler, of
Bridgeton, was elected temporary Sec

vention for chairman was Charles R.
Tomlin, President of the Bridgeton
Board of Health, and he presided with
dignity. and the work of the conven-
tion under his direction was promptly
performed.

adopted.
Ihe following resolutions were pre-
sented and unanimously adopted:
"The Republicans of Cumberland
county, in convention assembled, unite
in expressions of confidence in their
great leaders, both in the Nation and
in the State.
President Roosevelt. by his com.
manding influence in terminating the
terrible war between Japan and
Russia, hassjustly earned the praise of
allscivilized mankind, and has further
cemented the already firm friendships
OF our two sister nations who were in.
volved in that great conflict.
I'VE heartily approve and endorse
the administration of Cumberland
county's most distinguished son, Gov.
ernor Ed. o. Stokes. Under his watch.
full care greater reforms have been ac.
complished than ever before. The in.
terests OF the great Commonwealth of
New Jersey have been made paramount
to partisan ends The ever increasing
resources of the State have been and
are being carefully guarded and State
expenditures, where necessary, are be-.
ing judicially and economically made.
"And it is owing to these condi.
tlons that Cumberland county of all
counties of New Jersey can point to
the administration of the State with a
larger degree of pride than ever be.
fore.
The fidelity with which the party
has redeemed it's pledges contained in
the platform of the campaign of 1904
and the success and universal ap.
provat with which the legislation of
the recent legislature has met, certain.
~ not only warrants, but demands a
continuance in Office of our present
legislative representatives in order to
consummate and carry out the policies
lnaugnrated by Governor Stokes and
ms able advisers during the first year
of his term.
cumberland county's personal and
particular interests are of vast import
ahoe. Its State intitutions and oyster
industry coupled with it's general de.
mands require legislative skill and
experience.
Our present Governor, in the State
senate, gave to Cumberland county
