HUDSON MEN
WITH WILSON

Princeton, Dec. 6:-GoVernor-
elect Woodrow Wilson yesterday at
his home here held a conference with
O number of the legislators-elect of
Hudson county relative to the SEN
aterial contest.
The Hudson county men came to
Princeton in response to invitations
wired to them Saturday. 1t is gem
orally understood that Hudson coun-
ty furnishes the real battle ground
in the senatorial controversy, and
the announcement that the govern
or-elect had taken this step OCCASION
ed great interest throughout the
state.
No authoritative statement Of
what took place yesterday was OBJ
tainable today, but Mr., Wilson's at
titude on the senatorship is now too
well known to admit of doubt in the
public mind as to his purpose in
asking for yesterdays conference.
1t is understood that Mr.. Wilson
emphasized to his guests his opinion
that the Democracy of the state can
ill-afford to ignore the spirit of the
New Jersey primary law, and the
wishes of the people, as expressed
under that law at the fall primaries.
While the governor-elect bears
Mr.. Smith no animosity, and might
pursue an entirely different course
had there been no popular express
sion Of choice for senator, he feels
that he cannot take a position which
is contrary to the wishes of a major
ity of the voters of his party.
These views he is presumed to
have made clear to his visitors yes
terday, at the same time urging that
every possible effort be made to
avoid friction in the party.

resentlng the Union Pacific and the Bur

have the city engineer make an examination

ing at the bottom round Of the ladder of
peace, the proper place to start. We
would show our approval and appreoia-

Eliminate all military and suggestion
of military display at the Fourth of July
celebration and you will have a sane
Fourth of July and peaceful celebration
Celebrate the principle gained and not the
method used, whereby we gained It.
We as a nation are foremost in advo

Then let us avoid all unnecessary mill.

OF the various nations. Militery display

1t is pertinent and consistent in advo.

military or suggestion of military dis
play, at Memorial and Fourth of July
exercises, thereby instilling into the
youth of our land, peaceful methods and
sentiment. If we believe the past con.

peaceful methods instead of as they were
by warfare, then 1t Is our duty to eliml
