DAVID BAIRD'S STRONG REPLY To| MURPHY I After carefully considering the letter; sent out by Former Governor Franklin | Murphy, asking thst Messrs, Kean and! j Baird, join with him and Former Gov-j ernor Stokes in going before the people; i in the race for the United State Sena- j torahip, Mr. Baird last night forwarded to Mr. Murphy, at Newark, the follow ing letter: \ "Camden, N. J., Aug. 15, 1910. "My Dear Governor: "Your letter of the 9th addressed to me, though previously delivered to the press, reached me on the 10th, just as I was tearing on a business trip. This has prevented an earlier answer. Perhaps its publicity has served the pur pose intended without a reply, but I win answer nevertheless. The constitution provides that a Senator shall be chosen by the Legislature. The act to which you refer permits, but does not

: require, as some political statements j j given out intimate, a candidate for the j ), I Legislature to pledge himself to vote L for any person whose name appears on|f thc ticket as a candidate for Senator. ! u i I am unwilling to ask of any candi- 1 „ date that he surrender his constitu- 1 ^ tional right and pledge himself to snp-j a I port any one who may at a primary J election receive but a small fraction of a .] the popular vote, particularly at this s i late date and as two-thirds of one j d of the Legislature has already J b - been chosen without such pledges. That Cl ( this attitude is not inspired by a fear! jof the result must be evident to vouA j who, of all others, are familiar wita. the former occasions on which I have! trusted my fortunes to my fellow citi in county and State. "Lot me suggest that you as (Chairof the State Committee and I as humble member would better be devoting our brains and energies toward the election of a Republican Governor and Legislature in November than in ejecting into the campaign at the eleventh hour a personal contest a U. S. Senator to be elected by the next year, resulting, as such -■ontests always do, in factional bitterness and a reduced Republican vote on election day. The success of the Repub lican candidate for Governor and of the candidates for the Legislature, whose election means so much to the people of this State, is of far more consequence me than the personnel of the next: S. Senator. "Aq your letter first appeared in the public press I am sure you will not re gard it as discourteous that I give this out for publication. "With assurance of my personal esI am.

Hand, Cape May County will year receive $7000 from the State auto fund, an increase of $2000 over the , amount given this county last year. Senator Hand has been particularly active in the work of securing this money for the improvement of roads in . this county, and bis friends are giving the credit he deserves.— Ocean City ( pair in an airship, ] Whilst soaring above, ; tbe portals of heaven, Were rapt *n their love. tbe bliss of the moment Was crowned by a kiss. j The i park-plug flew out, pa; And they tumbled like j Jol -Cfenrha Albert Brewta. en

0 Christopher S. Hand n | a Candidate dj - ; DESIRES TO RETURN TO ASSEMBLY « ' e — — Has Served His First-Year With Fidel1 ity and Won High Place in Regard v of Colleagues and Constituents. Qiristopher S. Hand, has announced 0 his candidacy for the Republican nomie nation for Assembly and it is eooceded 8 very generally among Republicans, thst s as a matter of precedence and as a matter of fairness his candidacy should receive every consideration. For many 1 years, a member of Assembly who has served bis constituents and hit county , and State faithfully, has been accorded 3 a second nomination and election, (land's predecessor Stille, was thus fav1 ored, serving three times; Judge Hildreth served three terms and number i of other instances could be cited. Chrisi topher S. Hand won golden opinions j for his work last session. He was ali way "on the job." He carefully examj ined all legislation presented and voted j intelligently. He aided every legitimate j project for the benefit of Cape Mhv ; county. He won as high a standing in j the estimation of his colleagues as any I member of the House and completed his | term with a reputation absolutely uy?) j sullied in ever?- sense. His fellow , zens are proud of this record and feel | very kindly disposed toward him. j Mr. Hand was born at Tuckahoe, j N. J., May 25th, 1872 and was educated : in the public school of Tuckahoe and j subsequently in the Atlantic City High School. He is a son of the late Somers | Hand, and his family is one of the pio- | neer families of the county. As a con- | on the Atlantic City Railroad, | has for years run the business men's express train between Philadelphia and I Ocedn City, and is one of the most popular conductors on the system. He is ; ' active in real estate and President of ' the (Tuckahoe Improvement Association, ' i and Tuckahoe Light and Fuel Company. He is a member of many fraternities ' and is owner of large tracts of land in " Jersey containing clay and sand ' His election last fall was ' the largest plurality ever given a ' candidate in this countv. 2147 * 1 v — : 1 LIST OF PETIT JURORS, i SEPTEMBER TERM t9io ( Charles Markley, Cape may City 1 Linnaeus Bright, Middle Twp. 1 Ham- Mills, Cape May City Charles Saunders, Anglesea Samuel Greenstein, Woodbine tdward S.

ATLANTIC CITY'S TAXES The kind of municipal government provided for Atlantic City is very expensive, says the Camden Post-Tele-gram. It costs more to run a resort e whose principal business is catering to , j the pleasure and comfort of visitors^ , than itd oes a normal city with littjK . fluctuation in population. Still, a . INK), 000 budget Tor a municipality of AtCity's size is rather staggering, that .. being" the amunt likely" to be voted by City CounciL Despite an increase in , assessments amounting in round figures to $5,000,000 this budget will require [ an increase of eleven cents in the tax 1 bringing it up to $2 on the hundred. s Liberality in municipal government is . well enough sq long as tlie tax payers bear the burden without kicking. And , in Atlantic" City the kickers are not I much in evidence. — Ocean City Sentinal. DID GILMORE SAY SO? Robert Gilqjore and wife, of Philadelphia, are among the many sojourners in this resort.
