Th# Senatorial Election.

In tbe matter of tbe election of a United State* senator the expected was what happened, although Mr. Dryden'a withdrawal came had been expected. To tbe experienced observer there rioter was a time after the Fret day’s balloting when Mr. Dryden bad anything that looked like a chance to win. And the outlook be'..came darker instead of brighter fof Mr. Dryden with each succeeding day. That Mr. Dryden would eventually withdraw rather than perpetuate «• deadlock waa what might have ’ expected, particularly as the probability of bis being able to bold a majority of tbe Republican legislators and thus continue as the caucus choice waa

matter of much doubt

Tbe election of Mr. Briggs was a: other natural development because be the logical compromise candidate. Th^t Governor Stoke* did not loo as a leading figure In the race after Mr. Dryden'a wltlidrawnl may ba attributed to tbe position tbe governor assumed In tbe I .-ginning and hy talned. and that was as governor ba

could not even

Hon as chief executive to tend himself in tbe United State* senate. His letter to Judge Jones that be owed It to the pabpie to serve out his term of governor put the finishing loaches to his chance, and left hi*.friend* whan, they could not give material support

If tbe commanding officer was unable _ _ be should have been court martlaled.’ is likely that tbe Camden and Mercer delegate* will oppose Senator Hlnchliffa’a bills relating to the maintenance of public libraries and parks. They provide that In all .cities of this state now or hereafter having within their territorial limits a population of than 100,000 the board of alor other governing body shall annually appropriate sums which in tbrlr Judgment are sufficient for the care and maintenance of a free public library or libraries and park or parks. The** two bills are Intended only tn apply to Paterson, hot Camden and Trenton are no close to the 100.000 mark that they would noon be affected.
