The fact that the water mains in

NEW JERSEY COP.
OPENS SACK FOR
STATE WORKERS
Dough Day" Celebrated at
Headquarters, with Franklin
Murphy in Charge.

This Is dough day. at the Republi-
can State headquarters.
All the members of the State COM
mittee, besides the chairmen of all the
twenty-one counties in sthe State, to-
gether with a number of other leaders,
were on hand this afternoon at a meet
ing of the State committee at which
Chairman Franklin Murphy, presided.
State Committee Treasurer Winton c.
Garrison had visited the Union Ma
tional Bank earlier in the day and had
an escort when he went to the head
quarters, where he retired into an ante
room. He held an informal reception
with many. of the individual members
of the committee.
This was the final meeting Of the COM
mittee previous to the election, and the
committee had a great deal of business
to transact.
Chairman Murphy received reports
from the chairmen of the county com
mittees regarding conditions. When
the members were asked for figures to
publish they were encouraging to Re-
publicans, but In private conversation
conditions were said to be such as to
cause some worry.
This is especially so in connection
with the South Jersey counties. where
there has beer a heavy detection Of Re-
publicans to Bryan. Reports of similar
conditions were made by Republicans
from other sections. and particularly
the industrial centres.
Particular interest is being paid to
the congressional fight. The exposures
of Congressman John J.. Gardeners af-
filiations with the Standard OIL Com
pany caused fear not only on account
Of the result SO far as Mr.. Gardner was
concerned, but also in relation to the
remainder of the ticket.
The Democrats had taken advantage
OF the opportunity to throw discredit on
the entire Republican ticket. Another
thing that was not received with CRATE
fulness was the dispatch in the papers
today in VIII Z John d. Rockefeller an
nounced he would support Taft for
President.
