Albeit, of Jersey City began their
tour at Englishtown in the morning
and visited Asbury Park and Long
Branch and other important places
in the county. Last night at Long
Branch there was a reception given
in honor of Governor Fielder and his
party.
Governor Fielder recited the i'm
portant beneficial acts of Democratic
legislation which began with the
election of Woodrow Wilson for Gov
ernor and continued for four years
and he asked the question: WAS that
the kind OF legislation you desire2
Have you changed your minds? [
cannot believe that the people desire
to put the old order of things in mo-
ton" He added:
1T is for you to say whether you
want a continuance of these policies.

putting men in the Legislature who
are opposed to this legislation they
can either repeal 1t or so modify 1t as

make of the gentlemen who are run-

on the opposition ticket, but | want to
| impress upon you that these men
stand upon Il different platform; they
stand for different principles and

comes to legislation, might be so tied
up that it will be impossible for me
! to secure their assistance in the en-
actment of legislation which ] be-

! Governor Fielder paid a high
| tribute to the work done by President
Wilson and appealed to the patriot
ism of his hearers to rally to the
Presidents support at this trying
period in our national affairs. Re-
| ferring to Congress, he spoke in
eulogistic terms of Congressman

supporter of the Wilson policies and
who on every administration measure
