James J. O'Byrne, Democrat,
Backed by Wilson, Loses
Congressional Fight.
FIGHT IS MADE ON TARIFF ISSUE
Voters of NetU Jersey Are Asked to
"Pass Judgment on Woodrow
and They Certainly Do.

Practically complete returns from the
congressional election held in New Jersey
show that Dow H. Drukker, Republican,
has been elected by a plurality of 5000
votes.
O'Byne had the personal Endorsement
Of President Wilson and he appealed to
the voters to support him and thus approve
of the presidents polices
This is the opening gun in the congress
sional campaign for control of congress
and starting off with the president being
repudiated in his own state presages what
the result will be in other states.
Right in the heart of the manufacturing
center of this country, New Jersey was one
the first to feel the blighting influences OF
the tariff tinkering done at the command
of the president. When men have been
thrown out of employment and their tami-
lies suffering for the necessities of life on
account of it, it is hardly supposed that
they would feel inclined to vote for con-
tinuance of these blessings"
In asking that the people pass judg-
ment on his policies, for once his bump
of conceit has received severe puncture
1t seems to us the sublimity of gall for him
to ask people whom he has deprived OF
the means of making living to indorse
his Ubiquitous policies, and that they did
not shows pretty conclusively tl.ey are not
in sym pathy with any such foolishness.
White house officials deny that the tolls
question had any bearing on the situation,
but when one stops to think that there is
more money invested in coast-wise shipping
in New Jersey than in any other state on
the eastern coast, this must be taken with
a grain of allowance.
We have got them on the run and they
know it, and with Republican house to
hold him in check, the president will be
shorn of the power to do the country any
further damage.
