_ 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. The Work of :1 Gang of Outlaws. Albuquerque, N. M..
