President's Message.
On, the first and fourth pages of to

by mutual consent, the latter retiring
from the concern, leaving its sole man
agement to the former.
Ken' Jersey.
The faot that the claim of Rodman M.
Price to the Gubernatorial Chair of New
Jersey will be contested at the next ses
sion of the Legislature of that State has
been made public. Mr. Price has received
a notice to that eliect signed by JOEL
Haywood, who was his competitor for
the office at the late election. The
grounds of contest are, that Mr. Price is
not olighible for the station because he
had not been a resident of the State for
seven years next before the election, and
that his absence therefrom was not upon
business of the State or of. the United
States. The question will be tried by the
Legislature, whose decission will be final.
Until the dispute is settled the President
of the State Senate will act as Governor.
