FRIDAY. JUNE 9, 1905.

Col. samuel d. Dickinson has an
noanced that the Republican organization
will nake determined effort next fall to
elect Mayor in Hoboken. This sounds
like an extrayagant statement, but in
view Of the factiOnal fights that are un-
dsrmining the Democratic party in that
eftys Ii il not rash one by any means.
Hoboktn is not the Democratic strong
hold it was few years ago. That was
made painfully apparent last fall when
former Couty CLERK Maurice F. Stack.
seeking reelection, was practically
beaten III his own home. Democrats left
the party in large numbers and openly
supported the Republican and Independ-
ens candidates. There must have been
some reason for this. Col Dickinson
evidently has abandoned hope of carry
ing Jersey city and regards HOb0ksn as
mora fruitful field for Republican mis-
sonary work. The Democrats should
profit By the knowledge Of the plans of
the Republicans have in contemplation
They should settle whatever differences
that nov exist and put up set Of can
a dates In whom the people will have
confidence. "Any old kind Of Demo-
cratic candidate won't go in Hoboken
any more. The people are not as easily
fooled as formerly"
