THE DILEMMA IN NEW JERSEY

New Jersey legislatures sometimes do
extraordinary things in the closing
hours OF their sessions, and the present
one may thus extricate itself from the
dilemma In which it-or the Demo
cratic party--has become involved and
then again II may not. As the case
now stands the two houses are at log
gerheads over two issues Of great i'm,
portance, each of them trying to re.
pudiate q matter to which the party Is
unequivocally pledged.
One Is Jury reform. This is favored
by the Presidents friends in the Sem
ate, but is opposed by the united and
embattled sheriffs Of the state, who
are championed by the Assembly Demo-
Gratis under the lead Of President Will
sons dearest foe, "Jim' Nugent; and
il Is not to be permitted TO so through
unless saddled with referendum pro-
vision which seems impertinently SUI
rerhuous in case of matter upon
which the voters of the state have al
ready expressed themselves.
The other Is constitutional revision,
which shall put Senators as well AS
Assemblymen upon basis Of proper
tional representation. This Is favored
by Mr.. Nugent and the Assembly Demo-
Gratis, but is opposed by the Democrats
of the Senate, who are President Will
sons friends, because most Of them
come from small counties which wish
IL. retain their Senatorial equality with
the big ones, after the manner Of small
and large states in the United States
Senate.
The present outlook thus is that both
reforms will be rejected, one by the
one house and the other by the other.

Nugent Democrats Of the Assembly.
But the question will arise why they
are not equally strenuous for constitu-
tiona revision. which is Of at least
equal and probably greater Importance
and To which they are equally pledged.
