Austen Colgate, manufacturer Oh

Republican nomination for Governor
% Now Jersey. Is not out Of the race
for that honor, has no intention OF
dropping out, and, according to his
campaign manager. Frank J. Book, Is
practically assured Of the nomination
An interview In yesterdays Tribune

the Republican state chairman SAD
that some one would be doing a KIND
ness to Mr.. Colgate II he could induce
the perfume maker to save his money
and drop out Of the race, particularly
reused the ire Of Mr.. Book.
"The statement that Colgate Is los-
inc ground in New Jersey" his mani
feeto reads. ais said TO be inaccurate
nv overy one who knows anything
about the political situation there. Inc
su0gestion by the state chairman, IL
correctly quoted, indicates lack OF
knowledge Of conditions Throughout
the state. How he can JUSTIFY the
suggestion that the strongest candidate
Of the three might possibly withdraw
seems strange to Republicans who are
sincerely interested in the election OF
a Republican Governor this fall. -,
colgate is admittedly thousands OF
votes stronger in Hudson County than
any other Republican, fact not to be
tightly disregarded. His clean record
as business man and n legislator
makes him thousands of votes stronger
throughout the state with the great
mass of independent voters, who feel
the need of a successful, honorable
business man at the head of the state
