SUSSEX COUNTY
VOTERS SUPPORT
FORMER SENATOR
Business Men Declare in Favor
OF James Smith, Jr., for
u. S. Senate.
Especial to tho Newark star.l

BRANCHVILLE, Jan. 20.-Democra
tic voters of Sussex county are eagerly
signing the petitions being circulated
calling for the election of former United
States Senator James Smith, jr, as
United States senator. IT shows that
the trend of public sentiment is not So
wholly toward James f. MARITIME as
the endeayor FROM various quarters
would hope to show.
business Men Sign Petition.
A petition being circulated at Branch
vile contains the names of a majority
of the democratic business men of the
borough. Other petitions at Sparta,
Franklin. Sussex Borough and Stan
hope contain hundreds of names of rep
resentative voters. Owing to the fact
that much opposition would be encoun-
tered from the many members favor-
able to Mr.. Smith, the Newton Wood
row Wilson Club has made no endeavor
TO go on record as supporting their
namesake.
Republicans of the county are watch
ing the struggle with the most intense
interest and almost to a man say that
they cannot understand how the Demo
cratic party can consistently do other
than support the man who has prac-
tically made the party what it is to-
day. The Governors selection of
George L. Record as an adviser has
caused considerable comment among
the Democratic supporters of Wilson
and has caused many to wonder tf Mr..
Wilson thinks none of his own party
is capable of cooperating with him in
his recommendations to the Legisla-
ture. 1t lis the prevailing sentiment
that should the local representatives
stand for MARITIME the Democratic party
in Sussex County will surely lose the
advantage it has held for many years
and the county will return Republican
representatives.
MARITIME Not Wanted.
The petitions being circulated in
Newton in favor of former United
States Senator James Smith, IT,.
are receiving numerous signatures from
prominent Democrats. There is abun
dance of evidence that the people do not
want James e. MARITIME to sit in the
Senate. They point out that Mr.. Mar
tine is a free trader and a silverite,

with respect to the matter What its course will be has not yet been an
nounced. That a serious situation is impending is not denied.
1t was recalled by one of the committee last night that Governor wilson
threatened TO "mark. Label and renember' those who failed him. He also said
tina. all legislators who turn away from their duty rs he expounds ii "hazard
shame and utter discredit"
The committee member significantly asked whether this sentence wa %
fall upon all those who failed to vote fayorably on measures submitted by te
Executive, with the advice and assistance of George L" Record.
MANY astue politicians we're astounded that Governor Wilson should rush
81 huriedly into print with his profession of admiration for Record. This Is
especially true in Hudson County. Many Of the Assembymen there discussed
the matter with heat and threatened revolt from anything bearing the Record
stamp. They referred 10 the Governors latest venture az either another grave
or as notice 10 the public that since election he had gone wholly owe to
the "New Ideates" In any event. they could see nothing to encourage the
hope that a wise and prudent course would prevail in executive affairs.
As matters now stand it appears that George L. Record las been singled
out by the Governor TO advise him. This much the Governor admits himself
Mr.. Record is o busiy engaged in drafting measure embracing his adj
vanced views "a to how Democratic pledges should be fulfilled. Presently these
views will be presented by the Executive to a patient Legislature for obed1ent
enactment.

CITY TO ASK BIDS
ON BOND ISSUE
OF OVER MILLION
Strlngency of Money Market
Caused Delay in Adver-
Using Sale.

The city Will soon be ready 10 adyer-
tise for bids on the two issues of bonds
the sale of which was authorized by
the Common Council some time ago
The two issues are for the corporate
bonds for SL030,00o authorized in June,
1910, and the dock bonds for $1,000
authorized last September.
The reason these bonds have not been
out on sale befors Is because of the
stringenoy Of the money market.
Former Comptroller ]. n. Bachelor
did not wish to jeopardize the credit Of
the city by Offering for sale the bonds
at a time when there was no demand
for them. Both issues are 10 be sold
at 4 per cent. The corporate bonds are
for twenty years and the dock for
forty-1ve.
Money Market Easy.
IL is believed that the money market
is easier now and that the city will
have no difficulty in disposing of the
bonds. The banks, IT is said. are in
condition to buy such securities, and
the timo is ripe 10 dispose of them.
The issuing of the corporate or school
bonds vas necessitated when the Board
of Education money was separated
from the other city moneys by the opin-
ion of the encouragement in 1905. The
taking away of his money left the city
in a debt OF $685., 900, which, with the in
terest on the temporary loan bonds
which had to be issued in the mean
time, put the debt up to $1,000, 600.
In Line with Mayors Message.
The $780, 00 issue is for the reclama-
ton of meadow land and is in line with
the mayors latest message in which he
urged that this work be commenced as
soon as possible. At a meeting of the
Board of Works last week chief Engi-
neer Sherrerd, in submitting a report
on the subject, spoke of the bond issue
for this work and of the fact that the
bonds had never beer offered for sale,
He advised the board and the mayor
to take up the matter with the comp
troller and to hasten the sale Of the Sc
curities, 80 that work could pc started
in the near future.
1t was at first thought eha. tho sale
of the city, A per cent. bonds would
meet with an obstacle when i was
learned that the Board Of Freeholders
had decided to issue AZ per cent. bonds
to the amount of $3.50, 000. This would
be in competition with the city's issue
and would make it difficult to dispose of
the 4 per cent bonds.
Conference Is Held,
A conference on the subject wa held
yesterday afternoon between the city
n the county officials in the office Of
the city counsel. The following men
were present: City Counsel Nugent.
Comptroller ParmlS. County super
visor S~chickhaus and County Collector
Booth. 1t is believed that the out
como OF the conference viii be that the
county board will reconsider It's action
and probably rescind the motion to float
the AZ per cent. bonds.
1t is not unlikely that a premium
will be offered for the purchase Of those
bonds. There seems to be money on
hand in financial circles, and it is be
lieved that many are anxious to in
vest in gilt-edge securities.

is regarded as "a political worker who would resort to any extreme to accom-
pMsh a purpose. If Governor Wilson expects that the Democratic legislators
will be guided by Records advice IN vote for measure urged Upon tn a d
aninistraton by him he will be sadly mistaken
From what can be learned many of the Hudson County Legislators are ready
to resent any attempt OF the part of Record to "butt into" the management OF
the Democratic party.
"Ths is certainly the limit" SAID N of the Hudson Assembymen. IF
State affairs there is no reason why he should go outside the Democratic party
for a political adviser. There are any number of Democrats more capable
than Record for such an emergency. l. for one, will not be led by the nose by
Record or other Republican. The Democratic party is pledged to carry out
certain reforms and it can be depended upon to dc its duty without the aid of a
man who has done everything possible to wreck our party.
ON Hudson County Record is looked upon a a diseredted political boss,
whose methods ire not only offensive to the political parties, but to the people
in general. am surprised at Governor Wilson and his action will lose him
many supporters in the Democratic party.

HANNIBAL WANTS

That Present Season is to be

the people of Hannibal if this city has

directors of the baseball club this
morning. 1--WE three men took charge

aid at the close of the season In saw
ing the franchise for next year." he
continued
In Sundays issue of The Keokuk
Gate City appeared an article con-
corning the fall meeting of the Cen
trail Association. Further down in the
story was a sentence which reads:
THAT Hannibal is playing her last
season Is practically a certainty. but
all other cities will struggle to re
tain their franchises"
This is probably President Justices
opinion of the matter, as he knows
the feeling in Hannibal now in re
gard to baseball and, of course, views
it in no other way than of Htnnibal
finishing the season with the help OF
the fans, which, it is believed, they

The Central Association wants to
keep the circuit intact for next sea
son and the magnates do not wish to
/ lose Hannibal. 1t now depends upon
what the fans want to do.
The director stated that it was the
plan of the management to make g
campaign this fall, probably following
the close of the season. The plan is
to go among the business men and see
how many would be willing to give
a certain amount for the continuance
of baseball in the city next season
