KEAN RENAMED
by THE c. 0. P.
Edge Beaten by Union Man
in Fight for State
Committee

TRENTON. Feb. 6-With Mrs.
Lillian F.. Feickert, of Somerset, pre-
siding as vice chairman, the Repub-
lican state committee here yester-
day reelected Hamilton f. Kean. of
Union, and Mrs. Lewis e. Thompson
Of Monmouth, to be the New Jersey
representatives on the National
Committee. In doing SO the State
Committee went contrary to the
wishes of United States Senator Edge
who in kilograms to certain members
had plainly intimated that he
houghtt the selection should be de-
ferred until after the spring presi-
Dental primaries and probably un-
til the National Convention at
Cleveland.
While it was one of the most har
monious meetings of the state COM
mittee ever, the undercurrent was
the feature. Mr.. Edges plea by wire
FIR delay was but another evidence
of the feud which now exists be-
tween himself and Mr.. Kean. The
latter's forces were in control of the
situation yesterday, however. and
under the leadership of Charles N.
Codding, member of the state COM
mittee from Union. renamed the
present members of the national
committee. Under the law the state
committee makes the selection in
New Jersey and not the delegates to
the national convention. This
change in procedure was incorporat-
ed in a revision of the election law
sponsored by Senator Pierson, also
of Union. several years ago. Had
the selection of the national commit
teeman waited until the meeting of
the delegates from New Jersey at
Cleveland there might have been a
different story and then again there
might not.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 6:-One of
the largest and most handsome floral
wreaths delivered this morning at
the Woodrow Wilson home was that
Isent by the New Jersey delegation in
congress. 1t was made up chiefly of
orchids and was over four feet in
diameter.

gressmen met Informally yesterday
and adopted resolutions of apprecia-
tion and sympathy and arranged to
send a floral wreath to the Wilson
home from the entire state delega-
ton.
Senators Edge and Edwards and
Congressman Eagan and Geran have
been appointed on the special COM
mittees to represent respectively the
senate and House of Representatives
at the Wilson funeral this afternoon.
The congressional committee will
meet at the capitol at 2 o'clock and
go in body to the Wilson home.
Both the New Jersey senators
were put on this committee because
the former president came from New
Jersey to the White House. From
among the Jersey congressman Mr..
Eagan was chosen because he was
the only congressman from the state
who came to congress when Mr.. Will
son came to the White House and
went out of congress when Mr.. VIII
sons services ended at the White
House. They came to Washington
together and ended their public life
at the same time.
Mr.. Geran was put on the funeral
committee because he was pupil
under Mr.. Wilson at Princeton and
was the Democratic leader in the
New Jersey House OF Assembly when
Mr.. Wilson was governor Of the

Correspondence
Dear Mr.. Editor.

Dear Mr.. Editor,
1t IS a pity that on the looks
OF 'hidebOund egotists" the community
at large must pay for false representa-
lions and wrong procedures to reach
the goal Of progress. Ii is forgotten by
some wise fellows Of this community
that The more 1uIey they get the more
harness will be put on them; the more
quiet things are taken and if the right APP
peal IS made, harmony will dwell here
among US once more; if something is
done and it is thought illegal, ask a queS-
ton 10 a sane way and a sane explanation
rs certain. Kicking about things like
fools and aggitating just causes exposes
the thinking box Of wise jackasses who
brays because they want themselves
to be heard. When we think of a man
like the Editor of the Herald, a man
who profess to be a lawyer, is elevated
to the Legislature, as a member Of that
body he was present when a DE
partment Of Agriculture, Commerce and
Labor was recommended to the Legis-
! ture IF both municipalities which as
sembled in Joint Session on February 7,
1874, the said recommendation resolved
and adopted at the Joint Session APPROX
Ell by the Governor February Is, 1924,
The resolution thus duly adopted and ap-
proved, the Department has been pro.
nounced established by Executive Order
