This makes one Of the most interest
Ing situations in the history of the

neither side, having, q clear majority
of thirty-one. which is necessary, can
organize the house unless II receives

In this situation 1t Is likely that in
the matter or organization and distri-
button Of patronage II will be neces-
sary for the two parties to oompro-
mise. Last year the house OF assem-
bly, had a Republican majority of
thirty-two.
The great turnover In the lower
branch of the legislature is due to
the election of twelve Democratic as
cemblymen from Essex and three from
Middlesev.

MAJ Test Legality Of Gov.
Edges Election to Senate

By er~~faf Correscozdeat
TRENTON. Iov. sIThere was an
unconfrmed rumor here yesterday
afternoon that James Y, Nugent, the
Essex Democratic leader, would in
stitute proceedings to test the legality
of Governor Edges right to a seat In
the United States senate. in view Of
the New Jersey constitutional prohibit
ton or provision which says that the
governor of the state shall not be
elected by the legislature to any fed
eraI office while holding he position
of governor of the state.
Mr.. Nugent not being here. the
story could not be confirmed. 1t was
TO the effect that he would institute
proceedings through the legislature,
probably the house, since the Demo-
Gratis have an even break there now.
Failing there, the story said. Nugent
would carry his fight to the courts.
Success of such a proceeding, OF
course, would make a vacancy in the
United States senate from New Jer-
sey md mean a special election to
fill 1t after March 4, 1919.
