FORT OPENLY
JOINS NEW IDEA
AGAINST REGULARS

ernor. "His kim of Democratic sena-
tor is cheap at a much larger sum-
Prominent among the Progressive Re-
publican leaders who heard the speech
and congratulated the Governor on the
position he had taken afterward were
former Senator Everett Colby. Colonel
Austen Colgate. who seeks the chair
manship of the Republican County
Committee; Assemblyman Henry c.
Hines and many others. Assemblyman
William p. Martin, who had peer cam
~paigning early In the evening, arrived
late. In some of the interesting digres-
sion from his set speech Governor Fort
made the following observations:
''They are paid vampires-the
lobbyists. Why can't we be. rid
of them-these crawling creatures
who give their whole time to
killing reform legislation? oh, II /
only had the power and could get the
indictment of them as judge, l would
put them all in another place at Tren-
ton, not the State House"
Talks Recent History
Dipping into recent history he said:
II secured the passage last winter
of a bill for the election of county
committees of political parties at open
primary elections under State law,
largely through a threat to call a spe-
cial session If 1t didn't go through at
the regular session.
1.-The Republican Senators agreed in
a conference with me to pass the bill,
and they did 1t. The bill went through
the Senate unanimously, and yet the
local bosses tried to beat 1t in the
House, and did defeat 1t When 1t was
first taken up.
Five hundred men employed under
the Newark Board of Works sent Il
committee to see mel could name the
members of the committee-to urge me
to do all that 1 could to get either "A
civil service reform law or a tenure
of Office act said the Governor, not
withstanding that, the chairman and
the secretary of the Republican County
Committee came to me and protested
against any such legislation"
what a blessing it will be when we
see in New Jersey legislators without
collars. Three men from one county
came into my office last winter-were
brought to me, led in by their boss.
/ told him, the boss, to leave my office
while I talked to the men. And we
oHoe "a UVoA. IitN tNiiNh " iit anu
said: Thank God for that. Governor,
we don't wan the man appointed that
he does and yet we have got to say So
That in a free country. That's no
Joke. 1t is a solemn fact"
The Governor devoted a good deal of
time to discussion of public utilities
legislation. He said that he did not go
as far as Assemblyman Martin in his
fight, but that both wanted a bill and
1t must be passed. He described in de-
tail the fight in the Legislature result
ing in no legislation for the last two
years. He gave Martin credit for the
battle he had fought and for his siren
uous" endeavor to put his bill through.
He denounced the "legerdemain,' of
the opponents Of the public utilities leg
islation, of the Juggling of the parlia-
mentary law of the State" and Of the
work of the lobbyists.
"A representative of the most in
terested corporation, a gentleman from
Camden" he said, 'lobbied against the
bill on the floor OF the House, very
