IN ASSEMBLY RACE
Other Candidates Willing to Give

Clear Field.

The exclusive announcement made l n
last nights STAR to the effect that
Assemblyman Edward Kenny, of East
Newark. would, in all probabilities,
represent the interests of West Hudson
in the Assembly for the coming term,
caused quite some discussion.
With the exception of Police Justice
Joseph M. Branegan all of the prospec-
tive Democratic candidates for the
office declared that they were willing to
support Mr.. Kenny. Justice B~ranegan,
who has made a hard fight for the
nomination, has stated that he will
give Assemblyman Kenny a fight.
If anything should prevent the for
mer East Newark Mayor from accept
ing the nomination Councilman John
]. DAILY, of Harrison, would be next In
line. He is considered n of the
strongest Democrats in the West Hud-
son towns. A large number of Repub-
licans have called upon him and have
promised to lend him all aid possible
should he become a candidate.

out Of the commuters, and at the same
time to defeat the Essex delegation who
opposed his pet measure. Unfortunately,
our New Idea friends in the Oranges and
elsewhere In the county are either con-
sciously or unconsciously allied with the
I.ackawanna Railroad in an attempt to Sc
cure the election OF a Democratic delega-
ton. who will support his plan.
It was and still is my. opinion that
the case, Of Smith against the Lake shore
and Michigan Southern Railroad positively
settled the proposition in this country that
q Legislature cannot constitutionally regu-
late any passenger rate other than a maxi
deceived temporarily by statements that
this is not the law, but ultimately they
Will be convinced of this fact.
No State in the Union has ever gotten
back at the railroads In any other way
than by reducing the maximum mileage
rate and by, increasing their taxes; The
Commission of New York has recently de
cided that under the New York public
utility law the commission has no power
to suspend a commuter rate. In that State
the travel is entirely between points within
the State. The Martin public utility. bill
was an exact copy OF the New York law.
II that hill had become a law In New
Jersey the commuters would have been
In no better position.
The right way to meet the present sit
uation, in my judgment, is to reduce the
maximum passenger mileage rate to the
lowest point consistent with the courts
construction OF "nnreasonRbleness." Re-
peal the Hillery maximum tax act. and
thus enable taxing districts to increase the
local railroad taxes (the Essex delegation
unanimously agreed on the repeal of this
act last winter).. Pass such other laws as
the Public Utilities Commission shall from
time TO time recommend. We gave that
commission power last winter to "invest-
igate and recommend" rates for the en-
press purpose of enabling them to thor
oughly investigate such a question and re-
port TO the Legislature suggestions for
proper rate regulation. The commission
Is now conducting an investigation ana will
probably report to the next Legislature,
with recommendations for changes In the
law.
The suggestion Of comforting upon th'
Public Utilities Commission the power t.
fix the maximum passenger mileage rat
does not meet with my approval because
/ believe that power should be retained b,
the Legislature. whose members come an.
nually before the people for election. I
would certainly be more. difficult to cor
ruptlv influence a majority Of eighty-on'
members of the Legislature than to contro
a majority Of three Members of the com
mission who are appointed by a Governo
once In FIVE years.
