TRENTON", N". J.. Sept. 27. (Special.)
The Democrats of New Jersey, Wood
row Wilson's home state, have repudi
ated the President and his policies. An
analysis of the returns of yesterday's
primary election shows that United
States Senator James D. Martine has
been renominated by the Democrats
over John W. Wescott, the President's
handpicked candidate.
Mr. Martine, who is serving his first
term In the Senate, has not behaved
as .the President would have liked
him to. Several times he has kicked
over the traces when orders have been
given by the Chief Executive. There
fore Mr. Wilson sent word to all his
friends in New Jersey to work and
vote for Wescott. Wescott is the State
Attorney-General. In 1912 he placed
Mr. Wilson in nomination at the Balti
more convention and performed a like
service at St. Louis this year.
Wilson Kail In Tent Vote.
The success of Martine is noted with
alarm by the Wilson Democrats for
Wescotfs contest with the present
Senator was regarded in the light of a
test of Wilson strength in the Presi
dent's home state.
South and Central New Jersey went
strong for Wescott, but the smashing
vote given in Hudson settled the con
test. Wescott was beaten two to one.
Senator Martine said at Plainfield
today that the Democrats who voted
for him are just as good Democrats
as those who voted for Wescott and
for the most part just as good Wilson
Democrats.
Many of the leading Democrats of
the country have telegraphed their con
gratulations to Senator Martine today,
but he received no message from Presi
dent Wilson.
Victory Regarded as Remarkable.
His victory was perhaps the most
remarkable in the history of the state,
as, according to his own statement, not
a single politician and but one news
paper in all of New Jersey was friendly
to his candidacy. His opponent in
cluded everybody that is identified with
the Democratic organization in this
state, from President Wilson down to
city committeemen.
Joseph S. Prelinghuysen, of Somer
set, defeated Governor i'ranklin Mur-
phey, of Essex, for United States Sen
ator on the Republican ticket -by
about 3500.
With returns lacking from only 14t
districts in the state, Walter E. Edge
had a lead tonight of 2a37 votes over
Austen Colgate, his closest rival in
yesterday's three-cornered primarj
contest for the Republican nomination
for Governor. The vote was: Edge
70.396. Colgate 67.859, George L. Record

Mexican Commission Expects
Close Negotiations October 1 5.
to
BERLIN, via London, Sept. 27.
significant paragraph discussing
peace conditions appears in the speech
delivered at the recent Socialist
conference by Phillpp Scheidemann,
former first vice-president of the
Reiehstasr.
While strongly emphasizing tne iaci
that Socialists are opposed to a policy
of annexation, the Socialist leader ad
mlts that it is impossible to expect
that the war will leave all borders un
changed.
"Shall we Insist," he said, "that fo
land must remain absolutely Russian,
even if thereis a possibility of making
her free and Independent? That would
ill become us as Socialists. In tne
peace negotiations there will be delib
erations about the Balkans, Western
Asia. Africa and probably about the re
adlustment "of oower over the entire
world. Agreements for making
changes can be acceptable at least, to
us, provided they do not create anger
or new wars or do violence to any
foreign people."
Freedom for Poland Urged.
Hugo Haase. leader of the secession
ists of the Reichstag group, argued
that the best course to pursue was to
reach an understanding whereby no
country should suffer defeat. So far as
Poland was concerned, he suggested
that the Russians themselves should
liberate Poland from "Czarism."
Carl Kautsky. who was formerly
often spoken of as the thinker of the
party, declared that peace was still
possible today. England and the Eng
lish proletariat he asserted, would at
once be ready to accept peace if Ger
many declared she desired to annex no
territory, was willing to restore .Bel
gium without making Belgium a. vas
sal state, would restore Serbia, agree
to recognize international courts of
arbitration and was willing to make
n agreement with Great Britain lim
iting armaments.
Herr KautsRy contenaea mat li
Germany should make such a declara
tion the peace sentiment in bngland
and France would grow so strong that
the governments would be compelled
to yield to it.
Low of Territory Feared.
Herman Molkenbuhr, member of the
Reichstag, directed attention to the
fact that Herr Kautsky s peace condi
tions omitted to say whether Great
Britain must give back the occupied
German territory.
Gustav Hoch. member of the Reichs
tag, said the danger of any one coun
try being subdued and territorially
violated by another is now past. No
group, he declared, can conquer the
other group. The danger now is that
all the nations will be bled white.
Even the most stalwart secession
lsts resented the idea of Germany los
ing territory. Herr Haase's utmost con
cession was that Alsace-Lorraine
should be made a free state within the
German empire and should not be re
turned to France.
NEW LONDON, Conn., Sept. 27. The
Mexican-American joint commission
expects to conclude its conference not
later than October 15, it was learned
tonight. Both aides expressed satis
faction over the progress already made.
The work here was virtually finished
today, although a short session will be
held tomorrow when adjournment will
be taken until Monday at Atlantic City.
it was stated that border conditions
were discussed today and that some
consideration was given the banking
question. The Mexican commissioners
explained to the Americans that the
departure for Mexico of Eliseo Ar-
redondo. Mexican Ambassador-desig
nate, was in no way connected with the
negotiations. The Mexican representa
tives were the guests of honor tonight
at a dinner given by Franklin K. Lane,
head of the American representation.

to take the form or informal conver

Democratic Move for Preparedneaa Is
Declared to Be Merely Appeal
for Voles Several Speak.
An enthusiastic mass meeting at
which principles of the Hughes plat
form were received with pronounced
approval was held at the Lent's school-
house last night under the auspices of
the Lents Republican . Club. Four
speakers, George Arthur Brown, Judge
John B. Kavanaugh, Frank S. Grant
and J. W. Beveridge. presented various
phases of the Presidential issue, urg
ing their auditors to seek full infor
mation on all questions involved.
The points brought up by Mr. Brown,
who made the principal address, in
cluded a discussion of National pros
perity and National security, in which
he showed the fallacy of the idea that
the Democratic Administration had con
tributed to the increase of either. The
Democratic solution of the prepared
ness question was criticised as an ob
vlous appeal for votes, weakened by
the usual vacillating irresolution which
have marked all of the Presidential
policies.
The text of Mr. Brown's discussion
of preparedness was based on the as
sumption that preparedness is but
short cut to peace. The attitude of
President Wilson on the snbject of
preparedness was shown to have been
misconceived in every particular.
