DEMOCRATS
ON ANNUAL OUTING
Club of Which Robert Davis
Was Standard Bearer Of
to College Point.

they are poor Democrats there, but
because l think we are all united now
in a common cause.
Expects Record-breaking Victory.
Il expect this vote on the fifth of
November to be a record breaking
vote which will bring old New Jersey
right into the column in which she
belongs.
Then, when we have her going, we
will carry her still farther along the
road hat leads to real popular right
and to the kind of government we
can all think we belong to or know
we belong to, or rather, that we shall
all know belongs to us.
Because the real difficulty in gov
eminent has been not always that 1t
has been deliberately doing wrong,
but that 1t hasn't known what IA
right.
IF you listen to a very small group
you may sooner or later conclude that
all wisdom resides with that group,
but Just as soon as you get outside
you find there are other people who
know a thing or two, and that he
only men who understand the inter
ests of everybody are those who are
connected with everybody. So that
the kind of government we want is
the kind of government that was IN
tended to be established In America,
and, God helping us, W will get 1t
again."
After these remarks the Governor
went to the office of Mayor Wittpenn,
where he signed some State papers.
Then he took a train for New York,
where he will speak tonight.
After passing in review h march
was made down Newark avenue to
Montgomery street, t. Hudson street,
to Grand street, at the foot of which
they boarded the boats that con-
veyed them to Donnelly's Grove, Col
lege Point, Long Island.
Colonel Henry H. Brinkerhoff, COM
mander of the Fourth Regiment, was
grand marshal, assisted by Harry
Heller as adjutant. With him
marched Sheriff N. Peter Wedin, who,
as president of the Democratic Club,
was in charge of the outing.
The Fourth Regiment Band pre-
coded the m%archers.
Band with Each Battalion.
The battalions, each composed of
approximately 1000 men. were formed
as follows:
First. Major John Kelly, command
ing, Emblem's Band; Second. Major
Thomas j.. Corydon, commanding,
Holders Band: Third, Major Harry
L. Barck, commanding, Junker's
Band; Fourth, Major Charles w.
Nolan, commanding, Beggs's Band;
Fifth, Major Neil O'Mahoney, COM
manding, Kelly's Band.
The line of march, which took in the
principal streets Of the lower city,
was decorated, and the sidewalks
were lined ten deep with spectators,
who cheered the Democrats on their
way.
This is the biggest outing, both in
point of numbers and quality, that
leaves Hudson county each year, and
scarcely anybody who takes any act
i've part in politics under the Demo-
cratic banner misses attending 1t.
Representatives of the office-seek-
ers, especially those anxious to rep
resent the Eleventh district in Con-
gress, were there in abundance, scat
tering with lavish hands buttons,
badges and flags among those who
attended the outing.
The lieutenants of several prospec-
tive nominees made the best use they
could of the time between the start
of the parade and the start of the
boats to decorate the latter with
streamers, remnants and cards, telling
of the many fine qualities of the men
they named.
AS in former years, the marchers
wore neat felt hats, large badges and
carried small flags on bamboo sticks.
The most prominent of the invited
guests were former United States
Senator James Smith. jr., State Chair
man Edward G. Grosscup, United
States Senator James E. MARITIME, Da-
vid S. Crater, secretary of state;
John Hinehliffe, John L. Armitage,
Albert Boelschweiler, Thomas F. Fo-
ley, James J.. O'Gorman, James R.

Coy and Thomas j. Scully.
