Smith. Jr. For some lime the Oovernor-
lect h.iei ben conferring with Democratlo
members of the Legislature and urging
upon them the wisdom of electing Mr.
Martlne.
Smith Decline to Withdraw.
Dr. Wilson refrained from making any
ul. llo statement until now, hoping Mr.
Smith would announce hts retirement
from the Hold. He called upon Mr. Smith
at hie home m Newark Tuesday night
and urged him to retire, but. It la under
stood. Mr. Smith declined to do so. Dr.
Wilson. In a statement says:
"The question, who should be chosen by
the incoming Legislature of this state to
occupy the seat In the Senate of the
United States which will presently be
made vacant by the expiration of the
term of Mr. Kean is of vital importance
to the people of the eXate. both as a
question of political good faith and as
a question of genuine representation In
the Senate that I feel constrained to ex
presn my opinion with rvgard to It In
terms w hich cannot be misunderstood."
People Itun't Want Smith.
Realising the delicacy of the situation.
Dr. Wilson enys he speaks as the "poli
tical spokesman and adviser of the peo
ple.'" "I know that the people of the state
do not desire Mr. James Smith. Jr.. to
be sent aguln to the Senate. It he should
be. be a ill not go as their representa
tive. The only means I have of knowing
whom they desire to represent them Is
the vote at the recent primaries, where
4.00n Democratic voter; a majority of
the whole number who voted at the pri
maries, declared their preference for Mr.
Marline- x
"For me that vote Is conclusive. I
think It nhould be for every member of
the Legislature. Absolute good faith In
dealing a 1th the people and unhesitating
fidelity to every principle involved is the
highest law of political morality under
a constitutional government."
