We ispeeted the 'Oil iang," was up to its o'd tricks of foi-t jug upon tlie Ikn.ocrats of tlie Watt tool which they could use for their own advantage, who under the name of the Democratic party would do the bidding of the corporate interests whicn had, under both the "regular'' organ izations, Democratic and 'Hepubliran, found in 'evi Jersey their most untrit ioui pastures. At a meeting held :it the Linvjers' Club in New York, vounger Democrats, like Judge Silzer "of Middl.-'.A .-m l nn . If.

As soon as 'he Demo, ratie boss of Hudson couttj. Hob Davjs, one f the 'eaders in the Wilson movement in North Jersev. was apprised of the proposed action on our part, he sat about to head it 'iff, and as part of his plan of oppoiition he sent for tne id nn effort to w an me awny from the miter candidacy .

As a niatte'r of fact, at that ry time, there wi,s no moro iinpiacabl, foe of Woodrow Wilson in the State of New Jersey than Moses Taylor Pyne, a leading Trustee of PTinreton University who headed the oppositiou to Mr. Wilson in the Princeton fight.

His reply was characteristic of the point of view of the boyt In dealing with these matters of moment to the people of the State. '"How the, hell do I know whether he'll make a good Governor f" he replied. ''He will make a good candidate and that is the only thing that interests me.'1 . Shortly after, those of us who banded together to oppose the bosses in their efforts to force Dr. Wilson upon ut, began to feel the pressure of the or ganization's influence. Many of our friends left us in despair and in foar of the power of the machine. The movement toward Woodrow Wilson in the Mate was soon in full swing. The Davis Smith Nugent Kosa machine was in fine working, order on the day and the night of tho convention. I was not even a delegate to the con vention, but 1 w.i present and kept in close touch by contact with my friends with every phase of the contention fight. Colonel Harrey was again on the scene as the generalissimo of the Wilson forces, quietly and stealthily moving about, lining up his forces, for the memorable battle of the morrow. There was bitter but unorganised opposition to . the favorite son of the State ma chine, Woodrow Wilson. The conven tion itself presented an unusual situa tion, and demonstrated more than any thing 1 ever ;aw the power of the "old gang'' to do the thing its masters had in mind. As I look back upon the great. event of this convention, the nomine tion ot Woodrow Wilson for the Gov ernorship of New Jersey, I feel that destiny was inscrutably engaged there, working in mysterious ways its wonders to perform, working perhaps through strange, incongruous instrumentalities to bring the man of destiny into at tion, led by tliost wlio wax jQjipoiiiil to everything Woodrow Wilson stood for, opposed by those? who were yearning for and striving for just the daw:i of polit ical liberalism that his advent in poli tics heralded. The conflict of the Tren ton convention about to be enacted was an illustration of the poet's line, "Where ignorant armies clash by night." The Old Guard's Mistake. The successful side of the convention was tight nig for v. hat lliey least want ed: th- 1. feat ah-an.-t what they most Th, JwCrttary think, the Prtildent would likt to rvsd this ltttor. KOTEt The latter referred to was one from a former political foe, praising the President's course in the ware wanted. Her in tins convention, ii truth, "ere present in aggressive ac tion the incongruities of politics, aud in full display were witnessed the sar donic contrasts between the visible and the invisible situation in politics all the Oia Guard moving with Prussian precision to the nomination of the man who was to destroy for a time the ma chine rule in New Jersey and inaugu rate a new national era in political lib oralisin, while all the liberal elements of the State, including fine old Judge Wcatrott of ( aniden and youag men lika mysolf, were sullen, helpless. Every progressive Democrat in the convention iv as opposed to the domination of tht Princetonisn, and every standpatter and Old Guardsman was in favor of Woodrow Wilson. On the convention door, Jumiuat.ng the whole affair, stood ex Seuat r James Smith, Jr., of Njw Jersey, the spokesman of the "hign brow" candidate for Governor, con trolling tho delegates from South-and West Jersey. Handsome, cool, signi fied, he rose from the rloor of the con vention hall, and in rich, low tones, seconded tht nomination of the man "he had never met," the man he would not "presume'' to claim acquaintance with, the man whose life had lain a other fields than his. Verr close tc him, "taking hit orders,'' and acting upon tvtry suggestion that cams to him sat Jim Nugfnt, grim, big jawed, the giant fullback of Smith's iavintible team, the rising star of machine poll ties ill New Jersey. Dowa tht aisle tat Uie "Little Napoleon'' of Hudson Coun t .

These wert the leading acton in this political drama. Behind tht lines, in the "offing," was the Inturgent Croup, voung men like Mark Sullivan and John Treary of Hudson, stout defenders of tht liberal wing in the convention, feel ing tullen, beaten and hopelessly im potent! against the mast attack of the machine forces. What a political med ley was present in this convention plebeian and patrician, machine man and political idealist all gathered to gether nad fighting at leading char acters and supernumerariet in the po lities drama'about to ba enacted. Introduces' to tht Coarcnti. Not three jnen outside of tht leading actors in thit great political drama bad eer teen the Princeton professor, al though many had doubtless read his speeches. I watctied every move from tho side lines. The bosses, with con summate precision, moved to the doing of the job in hand, working their spell of threats and coercion -upon a beaten. sullen, spiritless body of delegates. On could easily discern that tbert was no heart in tht delegates for the job at hand. To them tht activt forces in the convention, the Princeton President was iniieed a man of mystery. Who could solve the riddle of this political Sphinst Who was this man Wilson f What were his purpfosest What hit idealst These questions Were troubling and perplexing the delegates. Colonel Harvey, the commander in chief of the Wilson forces, when interrogated by us, refused to answer. How masterfully the Old Guard staged every act of the drama, and thut brought about the nomination of the Princeton President. The convention is at an end. Wilson has been nominated bj a narrow asar gia; tht delegates, bitter and resentfnl, art about to withdraw; tht curtain is about to roll down on tht last tcene. The Chairman, John E. Hardin, the dis tinguished lawyer of Essex, it about to announce the final vote, when the clerk of the convention, in a tone of voice that reached every part of the hall, an nouncea in a most dramatic fashion: ''We have just received word that Presi dent Wilson, the candidate for the Gv ernorship, and the next President of the United Htates, has received word of hit nomination: Las left Princeton, and is now on his wav to the convention. " Fx- relient stage nun. Tlie voice of the secretary making tins drainatk stats in. ut is the voice of Lsau, but the deft band behind this clever move it that of Colonel Harvey. The announcement lit eraiiy sets the convention on lire. Bed lum breaks loose. The only sullen and indifferent ones in the hall are those of us who met defest a few hours before, lor ut, at least, tht ntyttery is bnt to be solved. The Princeton professor has left the shades of tht university to enter the Elysian fields of poli'irs. At tht time the Secretary "t announce ment was made 1 was in the rear of tht convention staJl, trying to Income reconciled to our defeat. I then wended my weary way to the ttag and stood 'lose to the band, whir:, was busy entertaining th crowd unt: 1 tht arrival of Dr. Wilson. I wanted to obtain what aewspaper men ca'l a "close up" of this man of mystery. What a ere my own feelings as I the candidate quietly waik to the speaker's stand!

It agreement can be readied in the matter of a chairman of tho National committee there will lone been a great, step forward taken to advance Herno rratic. prospects. The gem ral feeling among h ading Democrats is that n , p'grei for psHy a'f-ncrnncv ran be made with two factious with.n the party seeking to control it. destinies and that thero must . some. gi" tnent as to th- directing force in the .National comtml't . .

The Democracy of the country will take rare of tho matter of party noniineel when tho time arrives.

That Chairman jeoge White was tht. personal choice ct Presidential Nominee James M.

That such a state of mind on the part of Democrats weakers tin strength of the committee for ef , feetive party servn-M need not be argued. Chairman White has been re ported at times as being somewhat n rimed to beeon e t candidate for tb Democrat in nomination for goverwo of Ohio, wlnlo at other timet it has been rumored that he planned to reaig i and at other tones again as being d termined to hold on to the position.
