The Detroit manufacturer whose product we handle asked us some time ago how . njany cars we could sell during the month of November. Evidently we didnt place our figures sufficiently high to make it interesting to the manufacturer, as he immediately advised us that if we doubled this allotment we would be given a liberal bonus on each car. We agreed — the cars are now arriving — and we are going to move them. We want to state right here that this is not a "going out of business" proposition — neither is it a "clean up," but simply a plan of the manufacturer' to get these cars better known in my territory.

Special Correspond sees.) Trenton. Jan. 26.— By the vote of 3 to 2 the Judiciary committee of the boose assembly has decided to conduct an Investigation into the administration of Justice in Hudson county. The probe will be started next Monday morning at 10:45 o'clock In the state bouse. The resolution is aimed at Judge Tennant and Prosecutor Robert 8. Hudspeth, whose impeachment, it has been declared, will be sought. Two conferences were conducted by tbe Judiciary committee before it was decided to conduct tbe bearing, which will Involve men prominent both in the Democratic and Republican ranks, and as It may fnmlsh political capital for •ne side Or the other it was handled with much questioning as to its advisability. Tbe charges which are to be taken up Involve alleged irregularities in the Indictment of Samuel S. Smith, chairman of the Republican county committee of Hudson, on a charge of conspiracy. Judge Tennant, it is asserted, and Mr. Huds|>eth will welcome an Investigation of their offices. Both are Democrats. Minority Leader Geran sought to have the Judiciary committee make an adverse report on the resolution, but Majority Leader Kates refused to put the question, and the substitute motion of having tbe public bearing Dext Monday was adopted by the RepublieAmong tbe developments in the New , Jersey political situation la the formal announcement of Senator Walter E. Edge of Atlantic county that be is a candidate for governor. It has been known for some time that he would be a candidate for either United States senator or tbe governorship. Senator Edge was born in Philadelphia, Nov. 20, 1878. For forty years he has been a resident of New Jersey, bis present home being in Atlantic Gty. • He began life as a printer's devil and by close application to business had established a newspaper In Atlantic Gty before be had reached his majority. He is now at tbe head of a general advertising agency. In announcing his candidacy Senator Edge has issued a statement in which he says: "I ad hoped that any definite statement as to my position in tbe comlng^iolitica! campaign might have been deferred, at least until the busy work of the legislative session was over. This is our first obligation, and I promise to give my undivided attention to It " Continuing, he asserts that be feels that In Justice to his friends who are working for him he Should make a definite announcement. • Edge Refers to Past Record. He refers to his past record in the legislature and to the laws in which he has been interested dnring that time, laying particular emphasis on the economy and efficiency legislation . and bis plans for a complete budget system for the state expenditures. "My, activity in the legislature." be says, "has been directed with the hope that I could see New Jersey a real business proposition with the main responsibility of the governor being that of conducting the affairs of the state, with all the opportunities for good, rather than the mere filling of a few offices seemingly his most important accepted faction-" Smmentiug upon Senator Edge's announcement. Senator Hennessy of Ber gen. who is a candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor, has is sued a statement "Senator Edge, like Senator Colgate." he says, "is a genial and upright gentleman, who would make n good Republican governor of New Jersey Senator Colgate has announced no i»artieular program. It seems, and Senator Edge may win some advantage over him in tbe primaries by his Issue of a business administration and the claims made by his friends that lie has lieen more close ly associated with administrative reforms than the senator, from Essex. But should he win tbe nomination I think be will have to get another issue, because he cannot expect to make much headway with any live Democratic candidate if he cannot promise the people something more than a Re publican business administration." i Hennessy's Claims. Senator Hennessy claims that credit for most of the business and financial reforms in recent years should be given to the Democrats. > Congressman Thomas J. Scully ol South/ Am hoy. representative of the ! Third district, has . also announced hit candidacy for delegate at large to th« 8t. Louis Democratic convention. Ht j pledges himself to support President [Wilson for renomlnation If be is chosen as a delegate.
