Trenton. Jan. lS.-James f. Fielder,
lawyer. will succeed Woodrow Wilson,
college president. as Governor Of New
Jersey on Tuesday. with a Democratic
LEGISLATURE back OF him and the control
of every state department I'm the hands
Of the party Of which he is a member
Like Mr.. Wilson. Mr.. Fielder has pro
claimed himself the leader Of his party
so that the eyes of the country are turned
toward New Jersey almost as strongly
rs when the President occupied the Execu-
tive chair in that state. for the pace that
Mr. Wilson set was a hot one.
Mr. Fielder becomes Governor OF New
Jersey under much more favorable cir
cumstances than did Mr. Wilson. lie is
trained legislator. having served I'm both
branches of the Legislature, and he has
a knowledge Of New Jersey and its needs
that IS held by comparatively few resi-
dents OF that state. Mr.. Fielder also has
| had considerable experience in the Gov
errors chair. for when Mr.. Wilson be-
! came President Mr.. Fielder became Act
| ing Governor, his place being taken by
| Speaker Lew Taylor when he later re-
/ signed to run for election to the Govern
! orshp.
I That the new Governor will accomplish
things with the swiftness and the certain
/ ~ Of q Wilson is the firm belief Of those
who know him chiefly for his indepen-
dence, his breadth Of character and his
love for New Jersey.
Mr. Fielder's inauguration will be as
simple as abls crowd Of enthusiastic
Democrats can make it, The ceremonies
I will be held i'm the Taylor Opera House
at noon, but because Of the limited ac-
commodatons ii Is not expected that more
than one-fourth of those desiring to wit
ness them will be able TO do so.
A few minutes before noon the Legisla-
ture will meet in joint session at the
State House and will proceed in body
to tho stage of the opera house. where
the session will be resumed. Acting Gov
ernor Taylor will make a lgief speech,
Mr. Fielder will take the oath Of office
before CHIEF Justice Gummere and after
his inaugural address the ceremonies will
close.
Despite Mr.. Fielders wishes a parade
will top off the formal ceremonies, some
thing like 5000 Democrats having an
nounced their determination to come here
and march behind noisy brass bands in
order that eclat may be given to the cele-
bration. After luncheon at the Hote
Sterling Mr. Fielder will hold a public re-
cepton in his office at the Capitol.
Mr. Fielder's inaugural address is await
ed with considerable interest, as there
are many important things to be taken up
by the Legislature. The financial condi-
