Former L. S. Senator Smith
Thanks Friends for Loyalty

Il am delighted with the result of the splendid work of
my friends, and will always feel under deep obligation to
them.
Without a State organization, with the Unprecedented
situation of the Presidential candidate and the national COM
mittee coming into our State primary to work against us,
and forcing the withdrawal of other candidates against
their will, we have succeededsin carrying Newark and Essex
County and in making a creditable run against overwhelm-
ing odds throughout the State.
Il have telegraphed my sincere congratulations to Judge
Hughes, and expressed the earnest hope that a Democratic
LIE gislature may be elected to carry out the wish of the party's
voters.
ITO my loyal friends throughout the State extend my
heartfelt thanks. They have labored .untiringly and without
thought or hope Of reward in the few days we were able to
give to the campaign.
They have stood uninhuenced and unmoved by attempted
coercion and outside interference.
