PRINCE ACTED
AS GOVERNOR
Says Legislative Business
Will Proceed Smoothly.

| 4 . fSAN w. ~ - ~
Trenton. Jan. 22.@Senator John
d. Prince, who was acting governor
while Governor Wilson was away
last week on his trip to Michigan
and other points West, declared
that the session of the Legisla-
fure Will be continued along the
vigorous b~usinesslihe lines that
characterized it this week. He
thought that the Congressional re-
districting bin would be ready to be
introduced probably this week or
the week after, as the measure is
now being prepared.
Acting Governor Prince thought
that the district lines In South Jer-
sey would remain as they now are
as there Is a general feeling among
South Jersey Republicans that the
districts there should not be dis
turbed. Senator Prince said that
the South Jersey districts are safely
Republican and the increase in pop
ulation there has been small COM
Dared with North Jersey, SC that
there does not seem to be any ne
cessity OF remodelling the districts
in South Jersey.
Senator Prince came to Trenton
and took the oath of office as act
ing Governor on the first day OF the
absence OF Governor Wilson upon
the belief that as President of the
Senate, the constitution made 1t
his duty to come to Trenton and Of
fer his services as acting Governor
as soon as the Governor left the
State. The oath was administered
to him by Assistant Attorney Cen
eraI Nelson d. Gaskill, and after
Senator Prince had signed the oath
1t was filed in the office of the Sec
rotary OF State. The oath was as
follows.
Il, John Dyneley Prince, Presi-
dent OF the Senate, upon whom has
devolved the powers, duties and de-
monuments of the office OF Governor
Of the State of New Jersey, do sol
EMMY promise and swear that /
will diligently. faithfully unto the
best OF my knowledge administer
the government of said state in con-
formity with the powers delegated
to me, and that ! win, to the utmost
OF my skill and ability, promote the
peace and prosperity and maintain
the lawful rights of said state.
Acting Governor Princes first Of
fetal act after being sworn was to
Issue a requisition upon Governor
DIX, Of New York, for the return to
this state of Lem Becker and AS
+ Furman, who are under arrest
In New York city and are wanted
IN Bergen county on the charge of
stealing 5000 from William Rup-
pechts of Qvefpeck township.

ANTI-SAL00N
LEAGUE BUSY
Plan to Introduce Another
Local Option Bill.

Il " BfFF @r& " -
! Trenton. Jan. 22.-Following the
second annual state convention Oh
! the New jersey Anti~Saloon Lesgue
fn the State Street Methodist hurcn
| here Friday, the fight TO get q local
| option law on the statute books Will
| begin next week or the week after.
| The bill is now being prepared and
| will be introduced at an early date.
The measure will be similar to
the one introduced last session. It
! will make the municipality the unit
| OF voting on the question, instead of
| the county as In the bills introduced
in the first year or two In the CAM
pafgn in this state. 1t will provide
that upon petition Of thirty per cent.
Iof the voters in any municipality an
election shall be ordered to deter
mine the question whether the sa-
|loons shall be banished. IT the ma
jority Of the votes shall be east
against retaining the saloons, they
shall be barred. The measure will
Iproyide that after an election on the
question another election shall not
| be held In the same municipality for
three years. This provision differs
from the bill OF last year, in which
this limit was two years.
Edwin /. Stearns, the new superfn-
tendent of the New Jersey League,
said Friday night that it was not
known yet who would introduce the
measure. 1t will be introduced into
each branch of the legislature and
then q joint hearing will be request
ed upon 1T. 1t Is expected that this
will be granted and that the public
hearing will thus be disposed of at
one sitting. Superintendent Stearns
and g. Rowland Munroe, the counsel
for the league, have been made the
Legislative committee to look after
the interests of the measure.
The local optionist leaders who
were at the convention seemed unde-
TERED by the defeats OF the past few
years and claimed that the fight for
the bill this year would be conducted
more vigorously than ever before.
They are also conducting a fight In
favor OF the passage by Congress of
the Kenyon-Sheppard bill to prevent
the shipping of liquors into dry
territory through Interstate COM
meree. Congressman Walter r. Me-
Coy, OF South Orange, is New Jer-
sey's representative on the Judiciary
Committee of the House of Repre-
s~entatives to which the measure has
been referred. The New Jersey Anti
Saloon League is conducting q CAM
| paign to have hundreds OF letters
written to Congressman Mccoy from
this state asking him to support the
bill.

THAT part Of the affair which could
be twisted into q reflection on the
Governors sense OF gratitude, while
suppressing all reference to the at
Ileged attempt of his supposed friend
Ito entangle him with sshig bush
ness'' in the person Of Thoma For
ltune Ryan.
Say Harvey Approached Others.
Governor Wilson's supporters In
Washington declare that II Colonel
Harvey sought to bring the Governor
under the Rvan Influence that cir.
cumstanoes alone Justified the Gov
lernor in severing relations with the
ledltor of Harper Weekly. No other
course was open to HIM as an hon
lorable man seeking the nomination
of the Democratic party for the
PRESIDENCY.
Since the original Ryan story
came out, Wilson men here say
further delving into the mystery has
brought them information not only
that the part OF 1t already made pub
lie lis well founded, but that there
is much more to 1t. They assert ii
can and win be established at the
proper time that Colonel Harvey
sought to induce friends OF Gov
lernor Wilson, as we'll as the Cow
ernor himself, to seek financial aid
of Mr.. Ryan. At least one Of these
friends of the Governor stands in
such close relation to him that IL
he had accepted the proposal of Col
onel Harvey everyone wins became
familiar with the circumstance
you'd have had tb4ght to believe,
IN aeekineneia suHD9ff
fT7757 with
the GOVERNORS knowledge, II not by
his direction.
Took Long to Open Wilson'S Eyes
It Ia also known here that for
months friends OF Governor Wilson,
unaelfish devotion to him cam
not be questioned. had beer suspI-
eious or the motives of Colonel
Harvey In booming the Governor for
sthe Democratic Presidential 1aoliisaa-
Htion. They felt that Harvey was SO
closely allied with certain big finan-
cia1 interests In New York, and Sc
dependent on them, that 1t was
practically uncomfortable that his
blooming Of Governor Wilson was not
lsomehow intended sooner Or later
to be turned to the advantage OF
these interests. These friends OF the
iGovernor told him of their suspi-
Icions long ago, and advised him fe
take steps to sever relations with
lColonel Harvey.
The Governor appears not to have
shared the suspicious and main
tained amicable and close relations
with Harvey until a short time ago
Think Watterson il AFeeIing Out
Colonel Henry Watterson today
would make no further comment or
the WIlson-Harvey episode, ane
replied to all queries that he would
