The New Joraer <lele>r»tton to Chicaxo will leave TreBton on Somlay, June 10, and while on their way they will cancan for the various convention officers t»r aaoNew Jersey uoe». They are a unit for Hoo^evelt, out they have expressed no choice for the vice-presidency. They may support Conyreasman Uohe^ K Hitt, of Illinois. This fall wrll he important in New Jersey, and the Repule licans expect not only to carry the State for the Presidential ticket, but alewexpect to elect a governor and a Republican legislature, as well as to retnrn to Congress * eight of the ten members which make up the New Jersey delegation *i Washington. The Republican candidate for governor will be Edward Casper Stokes, of Cumberland county, the present clerk in chancery, who has served three terms in the State Senate and has been president of that body fje has for several years been vice-chairman of the republican state committee and has been acting chairman for about three years. He i* a polished orator and has a firm hold upon the people of the state Some of the wiser heads of the Democratic party are talking seriously of nominating ex-Pre«ident Cleveland for governor. That has been their pel idea of some of the Democrats of the state for more than six months, who want to win New Jersey back to their principles. The delegation in Congress will be slightly changed. Congressman Hughes will be replaced by a Republican and Congressman J inning. jKho was recently appointed Uni ed States District Judge, will be succeeded by Ira W. Wood, a former member of the legislature A legislature will be elected which will return to the national senate John Kean, who is about completing his first fall term and who has given eminent satisfaction to people of this a tale. The new legislature to be elected consists of sixty assemblymen and eight sUte senator*,
one-third of that body.
Yachting Capa by Defhult.
Because the Britannia, the present bolder of the Cape May Cap, is in no condition to race for its defense against the Ingomar, with which Mr. Plant has gone seeking thy trophy.it by no means follows that the prize will become our* again by default. The Cape May and Brenton's Reef caps were consolation prizes practically given to Sir Richard Sotton after he had fa : led to win the great prize, the America’s Cap, with the Uenesta in 1885. The Brenton’s Reef Cap was brought back some yean ago. bnt the Cape May Cap has remained until now on the other side, where t ha* been once taken in a race and twice
by default by British boats.
In the Utter manner the Britanuis got it and snccesafnlly defended it against the American Navahoe. As the enp has passed before from one British boat to another by default, so now it can paaa again from the Britannia to any yacht which the Englishmen may select to defend it. They have their pick of the whole yacht fleet of the United Kingdom, and if they are half as anxious for B*race aa the Yankees are they will go through the little formality of a default and bring their fastest boat
to the line to meet the Ingomar.
The attention of dty council U called
to the pile of rubbish which has been damped on Columbia avenue and adjoining lands cast of Franklin street If the place remains in the same condition as now and a lighted match U accidently dropped there there Is likely to he s conflagration which would result serionaly to that locality. All the filth in town U apparebtiy damped there and the garbage men are no respecters
of the place where they damp it Hi
meroas com plain U hare been presented to council in this matter, and there appears to be a dispeeitton on the pert ,
of some of the members to pay
tendon to the remedying of this etil. It is hoped, however, that a majority of
that body will take definite action and thus help deaf ap an eyesore which hat long been in existence.
Both in HoaaU and Great Britain the eeltUoient of the sets ling claims caae regarded as a favorable augury of tielter relations between' the nations. Tbeae cases arose oat of the seizure of half a dosen British seeling vessels. They have been pending for IS years and are now aettled by Kus«U agreeing to pay for two of the boats, ss being probably ont of Rtuuian waters at the time. The matter is significant only as it give* evidence of Uoasian desire U> cultivate l*et ter leUtiona with EagUad—a desire apparently developed siacr the rapprochement between England and France and the beginning of the war with Japan. Hie claims bad lain dormant for yearn until last March, wbeu they were taken up by Kusai; and notice given Lord lamsdowne, British secretary of foreign affairs, that negotiations were in order.
The appointment of Judge William M. lanmug to the l*. S. District Judgship for New Jersey meet* with approval on all hands. It is one of the wise selection* of Senators Kean and Dryden.
