AS there seems to be considerable
misapprehension in regard to the dele
gates to the congressional convention
it NAV not be amiss to state the exact
situation. Four years ago, it will be
remembered, there was considerable
opposition to Mr.. Fowler in Union,
his home county, and it gave a major
ty against him of ITO, and Warren
gave majority against him OF SOL.
But for the fact that Morris gave him
over 1,2OO majority he would have
been defeated. At that time he gave
the credit to the Morris county organ
ization. Two years ago, on behalf OF
the Morris county organization, MI.
voorhees, notified the Union county
leaders that if they could not get to-
gether and give Mr.. Fowler a united
support Morris county would have
candidate. They harmonized their
differences, stood by Mr.. Fowler, and
gave him majority of over 5000. The
events of the succeeding years have
caused considerable discussion, which
with the statement made by Mr.. Fow-
Ter two years ago that he would not
again, be a candidate, led the Morris
county people to consider candidate
from this county, and the Union lead
ers were told that if change in the
representative was made it was Morris
county's turn to be represented. A
statement to this effect led to the
fierce onslaught by Mr.. Fowler on Sem
ator Kean and State Treasurer Voor-
hees. AS Morris county has so far
found that none of its available men
are in a position to take the nomina-,
ton, and an opponent to Mr.. Fowler
has been put forth by Union county
in the person Of Judge Runyorl, our
party leaders here have taken the
ground that it was the wiser course to
let the Union people fight out the
matter among themselves, and Morris
county send to the convention an I'M
pledged delegation, so that the bitter
ness that seems to prevail in Union
over the situation may not be carried
into the congressional campaign and
jeopardize the success of the Republi-
can ticket. We have not entirely
given up the idea of Morris county
candidate even If the men regarded as
the logical candidates have not yet
seen their way clear to take the nomi-
nation. At the Governors reception
at Sea Grit last month the Warren
county people announced that while
they conceded to Morris county the
right to present a man, in default
thereof they would present candidate
--either John /. Blair Riley orlJudge
Shipman. InvieW Of these facts it is
evident that the interests of Morris
county and the Fifth district will be
better served by Morris county send
ing an unpledged delegation and 30 be
in position to exercise harmonizing
influence rather than helping along
fractional fight in Union and imperil-
ling the election, So far as we can
learn the delegates supported by the
regulars are not tied up to Judge Run
yon or an other man, but seek to NOM
mate man who will be elected. OF
course, if Mr.. Fowler is nominated his
name will be placed upon the ticket
for the support Of Republicans.

Both of these matters are so well

intelligent man should seek to use the
issues as against Senator Mills.
The Morris County chronicle. [volume] (Morristown, N.J.) 1877-1915, 1910-09-06

AFTER careful considerationOf the
declaration of principles Of the local
option candidates for the Senate and
Assembly it is rather remarkable that
aside from the question Of local option,
the vote upon wnichlast year justified
our representatives in voting against
it, the two strong points made-the
employers liability bill and the COM
muted rate question are the strongest
possible arguments in favor OF the re-
election of Senator Mills. BY refer
ence to an article on the first page OF
this issue it viii be seen that those
seeking the passage of liability bill
will undoubtedly vote for Mr.. Mills,
as he is now engaged in connection
with the representatives OF the labor
men of the state, and of the employ
ers, in formulating a bill that will be
practical and satisfactory. The work.
ing men of the county have the good
sense to prefer a practical bill on this
subject to the sophistrieS OF doctrin-
aries and will consult their own inter-
ests before lending themselves to any
scheme to defeat friend who is work.

the Communication rates Senator Mills

questions in the affirmative.
Although I have no definite infor-

the increases are, as rule, unneces-

1t seems to me that one |
of the best ways to have the question |
settled is to have the legislature called |
in special session and have the public |

make report TO the legislature and |

then regulate the rates themsel e., or |
else give an adequate rate making |
power to the commission and the COM
