_ NEW JERSEY LEGISLATURE.

Plenty of Material for the Clerkship
—Senntor Voorlnees' Chances.

Trenton, N. .J.. Nov. 9.—The contest
agng Republicans for the Legislative
0 cos has begun. and when the first
round-up Of the Senators and members
is made next Tuesday, there will be an
announcement of many candidacies for
the twenty—two Senate places and the
forty-two in the House. The financial
value of these places varies from the,
$166.66 extra salary to the President and
Speaker. and $200 to each of the four-i
teen pages or messengers. to $1.500 to
the secretary of the Senate and clerk
of the house. both of~which places are
vacated this year by reason of the oc—
cupants having served the allotted
three years.

Senator Voorhees, of Union County.

 

who has been the Republican leader for
three years, is regarded as the coming
President of the Senate; with Senator:
Skirm, of Mercer: Hoffman. of Atlantic. '
and Ketcham. of Essex. mentioned. I

Assemblyman George W. Porter. oi
Essex County. has announced his can-
didacy for the Speakership, and needs
only the united support of the eleven
members in his delegation to be suc-
cessful.

Other members suggested for the
Speakership are those of Eugene C.
Cole, of Cape May. who. with‘ Senator
Voorhees, did most of the work on the
ballot reform law five years’ago: David
0. Watkins, of Gloucester: Henry W.
Gledhill, of Passaic. who was an unsuc-
cessful candidate last year. and John
H. McMurray, of Camden. Porter and
Watkins are regarded as the strongest
candidates.

A number 01- office-holders in the
Legislature. who are entitled to another
year in office find themselves without
a Republican. Senator or member to
urge their claims. and will be compelled
to retire.

The latest'figures received from last
Tuesday’s election indicate that the
Republicans carried the State by less
than ten thousand plurality on the As-
sembly 'vote. Essex County contribut~
ed about seven thousand two hundred
of this plurality, which shows that Es.
sex will be the battle ground next Fall
in a fight for the eleven Assemblymen
who are likely to decide who shall be
United States Senator Smith' s suc-
cessor. It is understood that the Demo.
crats did not put up much of a fight
last week, preferring to reserve their
energy and money till next year.

is said he came to New Mexico from
Texas, in company with Tim Ander-
son, in June. 1885. He is said to be a
college graduate of handsome and en—

‘gaging appearance and in his ma-
rauding he treats poor persons and
women with respect. ‘

Democracy, \Ve Are a Democrat,”
Louisville, Ky., Nov. 9,—111 the Cou-

rier- Journal yesterday Mr. Watterson

discusses the political situation and

lays down these propositions:

" First—The Government has no right,
either equitable or legal, to tax the
people except to raise money for its
own support; every dollar of taxation
diverted from this purpose is robbery;
and it is equally i ortagt that the
money legally collec td shall be hon-
estly applied.

“Second—The right of the people to
local self-government i an inalienable
right; to local option ill the countie
to home rule in the cities' to all fish:
in the State not expré3515 delegated to
the general Government, and the pres-
e1 iation of this right of local self- -gog.
ernmcnt is essential to that-just equi-
librium between liberty and law, which
are the cornerstones of our system of
Federal and State institutions.

“Third— The money of the country
must be good money. circulating every
where; recognized at once and takih
at its full value; and; to attain this
universal recognition and acceptance
it must consist of gold and Jilver‘
paper, the whole of lntél‘ohun'le
value each convertible into the o . t
on demand and freely circulating s a
