MANY PLUMS
TO HAND OUT

The great amount of patronage
within the disposal of Governor
Stokes during the coming winter has
already started a vigorous campaign
for some of the more luscious plums.
1t is too early as yet to predict the
naming of the probable successful
ones, but it is considered likely that
Judge G.. d. w. Vroom will be re-
appointed to the bench in the court
of errors and appeals.
There is considerable discussion as
TO whether Colonel Samuel d. Dickin-
son will succeed himself in the office
of secretary of state. 1t is known
that the in which the colonel
has conducted the campaign in Hud-
son county this fall has not been al
together satisfactory to some of the
republican leaders, and the methods
he employed in ''conciliating" the
new idea" cult, after the latter had
been defeated at the primaries in
September, has met with absolute dis
favor among those most interested
in preserving party harmony in Hud-
son.
Former Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral William NJ. Johnson, of Bergen
count, has been mentioned as Colonel
Dickinson's probable successor, but a
deal of doubt exists as to whether
Mr.. Johnson, who has his eye on the
| governorship, would accept the less
important Office.
