1t is scarcely necessary to say that
both the Democratic and Progressive
leaders are displeased with the Stokes
decision to enter his name as candidate
for the Republican gubernatorial nomi-
nation, since he is generally recognized as
the strongest man the G. 0. p could

as well as an aggressive campaign. The
former governor is an expert in state af-

CANDIDATE Osborne, of the Progress
sive party, continues to swing around
the circle in his own behalf, aided and
abetted by George l.. Record, of whom
nearly every person in the state has
some knowledge. Osborne makes the
same sort of speech he got off in Mount
Holly, and declares that the Progressive
party must get over $1,000 Progressive
Democratic votes out of the Democratic
party. He says I'VE have got to get
lot more votes than we polled for
Roosevelt, and we can't expect to draw
many votes from the Republican party
for nearly all the radical Republicans
left their party last fall There is only
one possible way for the Progressive
party to elect Governor; it is with a
radical candidate, who has a radical
programme. If / am nominated and
my platform of municipal ownership
and abolishing taxes on buildings and
personal property. is adopted, the Pro-
gressive party will have a good chance
of winning Then Record took up the
speech where Osborne left off and de-
nounced Mr.. Colby as one for "a reac-
tionary platform ''dodger," etc. This
speech was made in Elizabeth and was
listened to by many persons of all polit-
ical faiths. Mr.. Osborne's ideas on get
ting votes seem to be about as wild as
his talk on the tax proposition. He says
the Progressives must get over $1,000
votes from the Democratic party to win
Last year Wilson had -, $40 over Roose-
welt. Does Osborne think he can get
half of them? He admits the radical
Republicans have all gone over and
there is no hope of aid from that source
He says the Progressives must get more
votes this year than Roosevelt did last
year, and he also thinks that about as
many have been polled from the Repub-
lican party as the latter will stand
Where does he expect to get his Progress
sive increase? He must be counting on
the Democrats coming to the aid of that
party.

UNDER the heading "Katzenbachs
Mistake the Newark Meas discusses
the remarks that have been made by
Frank s. Katzenbach in his campaign
for the Democratic Gubernatorial nomi-
nation, and says that while Mr.. Katzen-
bach may have secured considerable
newspaper advertising he has not helped
his Gubernatorial candidacy The Neaos
says, MIR. Katzenbach is strangely out
of touch with his party's sentiment in
New Jersey. The anti-Wilson element
is no stronger to-day than it was last
year or the year before" This may or
may not be SO. We incline to the latter
idea. The Newark NeUs thinks Mr..
Katzenbach cannot be accused of
hypocrisy or double-dealing in his cam
paign, and that is absolutely truthful.
He is entirely at odds with the action of
President Wilson in forcing candidates
from the field and endeavoring to COM
pei the party to support the man he
wants in the Gubernatorial chair. The
Nes0s says that ANY professed friend of
President Wilson who gives his support
to Mr.. Katzenbach does so with the full
knowledge of what he may expect if the
latter should become Governor. Moth
ing more to the point than that state
ment. Mr.. Katzenbach would not be a
piece of putty in the hands of President
Wilson or Joe Tumulty. The Neaos
closes its editorial with these remarks:
WILSON'S friends will not support him
(Katzenbach) because they want to back
the winner and have every reason to be-
lieve they will be well taken care of in
the event of Fielder's election" There
you have it in a nutshell. Wittpenn was
induced to get out of the way and it has
been freely stated that he is to have a
good berth in return for his act. Other
cases of the same sort might be men,
toned. Yet President Wilson had an
election law passed for the express pur-
pose-so he had it given out-that the
people should be untrammeled in their
choice of candidates, and that no bar
gains, promises or anything of that sort
should act for the benefit of those seek
ing Office.

In ANOTHER column will be found
the announcement of former Governor
Stokes that he will accept the Republican
nomination for Governor this year. He
says, however, it must come to him with
out any special effort on his part; the
people must speak, and if they desire
another candidate ewillreadily acquiesce
in the matter and do all in his power to
aid in the election of the nominee. Mr..
Stokes has more than once said that he
could work better for some other candi-
date than he could for himself His will
ingness to be the candidate of his party
at this time does not come from desire
to again occupy the chair that he has al
ready filled with credit to himself and to
his state. 1t was only after he had been
sought and argued with that he con-
sented to allow the use of his name He
fully realizes the situation in this state,
that there is much to be overcome, with
the result in doubt, but he feels that
some one must be at the head of the
ticket and therefore he gets into the con-
test. That he will receive the nomina-
ton there is little doubt. AS to his cleo
ton there is not SO much certainty, yet
there are many reasons why Republicans
should feel chance for success. The
two other parties are not united by any
means and it is not yet time for Repub-
licans to give up and acknowledge defeat
without making strenuous effort to
prevent such an occurrence. There are
many problems to be faced before the
fourth day of November and they can
be worked out beneficially if all will lend
q helping hand to bring order out of
chaos. One thing is certain, former
Governor Stokes is good campaigner
and man of many resources. If he
should be the nominee of the Republic
can party-and we believe he will be-
it will not be his fault if he is not
elected.

ANNOUNCEMENT by former Governor
Stokes that he would accept the Repub-
ican nomination for Governor has called
forth all sorts of complimentary notices
by the Republican papers, of course, and
by many Democratic organs. The
Newark Star, of the latter faith, has
given Governor Stokes many good words.

A PICTURE


Republican newspapers in this state
have been accused of wrongdoing Presi-
dent Wilson in depicting him as boss
debating the nomination of Demo-
cratic candidate at the primary election.
Former Mayor Frank S. Katzenbach has
been an earnest and consistent Democrat
probably as long as has President Will
son. 1t is said that he even voted for
Bryan. At the opening of his campaign
for the Gubernatorial nomination last
week Mr.. Katzenbach drew this picture:
''Three weeks ago the President, in a
published letter to Mayor Wittpenn, said
that, in his opinion, his strength in a
three-cornered fight would not be great
enough to count decisively, and that as
leader of the party his choice was Mr..
Fielder, and that he and Mayor Witt
penn should support his candidacy.
Mayor Wittpenn withdrew. His laud-
able ambition to be Governor was crush
ed. The contest has narrowed to two
candidates"
That is a Democratic picture, not a
Republican. How do you like it?-At-
lantic City Press.

LOGICAL REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE.
The irresistible logic of the political
situation in New Jersey this year called
for former Governor Stokes to accept the
Republican nomination for governor, and
after long consideration and making
every test of party as well as progressive
sentiment he has decided to accept the
nomination, which will be given to him
in the primaries almost unanimously.
In announcing his candidacy Mr..
Stokes makes brief and modest state
ment. He has not sought the nomi-
nation, and having served three siren
uous years as governor has felt reluctant
to making a campaign for another term,
which, as he says, ''awakens no personal
ambitions"
But the peculiar conditions this year
make Mr.. Stokes the ideal candidate to
meet the wishes of elements of the party
that could be united ON no other candi-
date, for he stands between the stand
pat Republicans and the Progressive Re-
publicans and is close to the AS, 410 Re-
publicans who last year left their party
to vote for Roosevelt on a Progressive
platform, and who could not be attract
ed to the support of shell-back Re
publican candidate for governor.
Mr.. Stokes has the great advantage as
candidate of offering his own record as
governor as an argument for his election,
and consistent with his record was his
course last year in favoring progressive
policies while adhering to his party.
A man who can present himself to the
electorate and say, Examine my rec
ord, Judge me as have been and am,
compare my policies with my acts, y
must needs be formidable candidate on
whatever party ticket he runs.-Newark
Star.

REsCUER OF MRS. ASK
 TELLS OF NEAR TRAGEDY

KBTCHIKAN, May 9.-The Miner says: Just at press time today the gasoline boat Lark arrived from the South under command of Capt. D. Il. Dahl and reported to the Miner man that he is the man that rescued Mrs. Karl R. Ask after she had plunged in- to the waters, as told in the dispatch from Seattle given above, but he fur nishes us with much more definite article.
 It seems that Mrs. Ask with her husband were passengers south on the Spokane which called at Prince Ru- pert Tuesday evening. Mr. and Mrs. Ask were on their way to Seattle where the mother of Mrs. Ask lives. About II o'clock in the night of the 9th the woman, with only her night clothes-a kimona and her shoes and stockings went overheard when about three miles below Lowe Inlet. Her sudden plunge appears to have been noticed by no one, and no alarm was raised,
 Mrs. Ask does not claim to have been able to swim, but she says she was able to swim on this occasion and she safely reached the beach which must have been fully a quarter of mile away. With no means of making fire she had to spend the night in her wet clothes on shore waiting for some help to come. The woman was shouting when Mir Lark came in view of her and was making frantic efforts i to attract attention. She was taken on board and made comfortable. Her clothing had to be exchanged for some of the mems while her scant apparel was dried. She was weak from eX- haustion, but the captain and his com panion did all they could to make her comfortable until Prince Rupert was reached
 I Capt Dahl states that it is indeed wonderful thing that she should lhave reached shore alive for the night was clear and cold and she had over quarter of mile to swim. When he left Prince Rupert the woman's con. dition had improved to such an ex- tent that she was discharged from the hospital and was in one of the To- cal hotels waiting for word from her husband.
