The denomination Of United States
Senator MARITIME by New Jersey demo-
Gratis Eill be considered by some as a
rebukd to the Washington administra-
ton fdr refusing to back the farmer
orator. in favor of Attorney General
Wescott. The White House never made
any public announcement Of its wishes
in the matter, but the democratic lead
ers were anxious to please Presiden:
Wilson, as he wasn't particularly de-
sirous of seeing MARITIME returned to
the senate. MARITIME ran for United
les on Sept 10, 1910. He received
only 47,45S votes. but that was four
times more than his opponent received.
Nobody took the preferential choice
idea seriously in those days. and Mar
tine was put in the race by some Bob
Davis democrats in Hudson county
because they thought it would be a
good joke. Governor Wilson, however,
insisted that as the people had voted
for MARITIME it was up to the demo-
stand resulted in Mr.. Wilson's cele-
brated break with ex-United States
Senator James Smith, then a state
leader. who insisted that he, Smith.
was entitled to the place Wilson stood
firm for MARITIME, the legislature elect
ed him on Jan. 80 1911. and Smith
passed out of politics.
