primary election. The indifference of
many good citizens and lack of interest
in public affairs is amazing. Those who
take no interest nor part AVE no rea-
son to complain.
Newton H. K. Bugbee, State Comp
%troller, in Trenton, received the Repub-
1ican nomination for Governor over
William n. Runyon, President of the
State Senate and acting Governor, by
about 5000 in the State. Mr.. Runyon
ran as an avowed prohibition enforce
ment candidate by the a~nti-Saloon
League. He is one of many who are
elected by temperance votes who never
got cold feet after he got to Trenton
and met the liquor generals.
Edward l. Edwards, Senator from
Hudson County. received the Demo-
cratic nomination over James r. Nu-
gent, aggressive Equor candidate, by
about $1,000.
