Mercer county republican leaders
are deeply disturbed because of the
demand made by the leaders of the
Union Republican Club, representing
the independent wing. Of the party,
that the active management of the
approaching campaign be taken out
of the hands of the executive COM
mtttee of the regular county com
mittee and placed in charge of a
special committee to be composed of
ten members. The embarrassing
point about this situation is that the
Independents insist on having six of
the ten members chosen from their
ranks. James Mulheron, who him
self was a leader In the independent
movement last year but who has re-
Gently been elected chairman of the
county committee, has advised the

Bile for him to agree with their views
and as a result the harmonizing in
fuences that have been at work find
their plans seriously checkmated.
Senator Gaunt, of Gloucester

lspecial correspondence. }

Trenton, Sept. 2:-Now, as ever,
the wh1rlgig of time makes strange
political bed-fellows, as evidenced in
the activity of former Assemblyman
E. H. Wright, Jr., of Essex, in the
movement to secure the nomination
of DR.. Woodrow Wilson as the DEM
ocratic candidate for governor. Mr..
Wright is acting as secretary OF the
New Jersey Princeton alumni that
has undertaken the job of rally1ng
Princeton men to the support of Dr..
Wilson. This fact is interesting
when 1t is remembered that Ordinar-
lily Mr.. Wright is very much OF a
democratic "insurgent" in connection
with anything that former Senator
James Smith, Jr., seems to want In
the political line. Mr.. Wright mas
been "sat on" a number of times by
Mr.. Smith, and on n occasion n
former brought a suit of damages
against the latter on the charge or
SANDER. However, Mr.. Wright Is so
much of an admirer Of Mr.. wilson
that he Is willing for the time being
to be a member of a movement In
political affairs which Is admittedly
dominated by Mr.. Smith.
A 1nRula Iact IN cOHueoslou WAsu
the gubernatorial campaign Is that
Chairman James .Nugent, OF the
Democratic State Committee, has not
yet issued the official call for the
state convention, notwithstanding
that 1t has been the custom hereto
fore of formally calling the conVen
ton several weeks previous to the
date thereof. Mr.. Nugent evidently
does not have any doubt about the
convention being held on September
Is, as he has engaged a suite or
rooms at the Hotel Sterling for the
use of the Democratic State Com
mittee on September IA and 10.
The general acknowledgment that
Banking and Insurance Commission
er Vivian M. Lewis Will capture the
nomination for governor
without much of a contest In the
convention has not altered the
determination of Senator Joseph s.
Frelinghuysen to make as big a
showing for his gubernatorial candi-
dacy as possible. Along this line
he has reserved four large rooms In
the Hotel Sterling which will be
used by himself and friends on the
might before" and the day of the
convention.

RATE DECISION
THE REAL CAUSE
Speculation in Stocks Influen-
ced by Probable Outcome
of Present Inquiry

New York, Sept Delight was
thrown on the points about which
solicitude is felt in the speculation in
stocks by the action of the stock mar
ket last week in response to sundry
news developments. For instance,
demand was enlivened and prices rose
briskly when bulletins announced that
master in chancery for the federal
circuit court had reported against the
validity of the Minnesota railroad law
on the ground that the prescribed
railroad rates were confiscatory. and
also an interference with interstate
commerce.
The relapse in prices when it was
seen that too sweeping conclusions
had been drawn from this case was
no les significant of the Importance
attached to the subject. That fact was
corroborated also by the influence on
the relapse of the opinions expressed
by Commissioner Lane in the railroad
rate hearing at Chicago in opposition
to increases in freight charges by the
railroads.
The idea became prevalent that the
meetings of the cabinet at Washing
ton this week would decide on a for
mulated policy for the ascertainment
of reasonable railroad rates that might
be fraught with deep consequences to
the railroads of the country.
The speculative element In stocks
is imbued with conviction that the
course of values Of shares In railroad
companies is wrapped up with the
form to be taken by the railroad rate
decision by the interstate commerce
commission. A corollary of this is the
belief that railroad expenditures are
to be held up pending this decision
and are to be shaped in accordance
with its final determination. In this
condition there is seen little promise
of early revival of active demand for
steel products, owing to the influential
part played by the necessities Of the
railroads on the activities in that
trade. The copper trade position had
its part in complicating the view Of
the metal trade situation. The heavy
surplus of copper stocks adds to the
burden Of diminishing demand with
trade contraction.
The money position was complicat-
ed by the disappointment of the hopes
of an agreement with foreign bankers
over the methods of financing the cot
ton exports. The insistence on guar
antee of cotton bills Of lading by
American bankers. which was reiter-
ated by the bankers conference in
London unless modified, will necessi-
tate the financing of exports by the
American banks and will almost GER
tainly involve money stringency. Hope
is still retained that compromise
will be secured. The domestic money
market. meanwhile, remains easy.
The bond market has felt the bene-
fit of surplus accumulations in the
money market.
Crop news has been favorable, but
has had little immediate influence on
the stock market.

The Rock.Flower

Down on the cold gray rocks hard by
the sea,
Where earth is hear and bleak, with
ne'el q tree
Or blade of grass to show that mid
the strife
Is ought that bears resemblance unto
life,
found the other day blossom fair
That peeped out from the jagged crew
ice there.
And held its head as high as any rose
That in the soft earth of my garden
grows:
Serene mid these surroundings, dull
and gray.
AS any lily was its snow-white spray.
1t viewed the sea, the rocks, the rug
ged coast.
AS though this were the spot it loved
the most,
And accomplishing, lived it's little
AS if It were in some well-protected
Wherein all joy and hope fulfilled
were blent
With harmony. and peace. and sweet
content.
IT was like word divine sent forth
on high,
A whisper faint as some half-hearted
sigh.
But thrilling to the soul enmeshed in
With thoughts of hope to overcome
despair!
