Nothing is so opposing the general pros

torney Jeromess attitude toward q
Democratic nomfnation for tbe GOV.
.ernofship as4expressedsb by his former
campaign manager ~percepttbly
weakening MI. jerome with the indie.
fpendents. who elected him district at.
torneg IN spite Of the opposition OF
the bosses. MI. Jerome is now be.
ing placed In the governorship pomina;
ton at the hands of the Democratic
bosses, whom he reyiled and detied
last November. His principal strength,
not only In this state. but before the
whole country; has been from his in.
dependence of all party leaders. BY
ntimatlng that Mr.. Jerome is now
wflling to consider a nomination from
the Democratic bosses of the State,
his campaign manager is alternating
from him the large body Of independent
citizens who Loyalty supported him
as the antiboss champion. The man
who attacked bossism and defed par,
ty bosses is made to appear as to a
suppllcant for a partisan nomination
for office.
Mr.. Jerome would. as a candidate
for governor, be wholly acceptable to
the eminent fnanciers as q possible
anchor to windward against the rad
.icaIfsm of Hearst, but his acceptance
of a nomination at the hands of the
Democratic bosses would mean his
descent from the pedestal upon which
the independents placed him last fall
to the arena OF politicians, seeking
favor from the manipulators of nom
mating conventions. This would mean
a big drop for Jerome.
The Republicans will set the date
of their nominating convention this
week. To embarrass Governor Hig-
gins the date, according to report,
viii be the same as that of the Demo
cratic State convention, SO that the
Governor will not know until the con-
vention assemblies whether he is TO
run in a straight contest, probably
with Hearst. or. in a three-cornerel
race with Hearst and another Demo
crat.
The Governors friends say that II
there are to be w Democratic candi-
dates there is no necessity for looking
further than the present Governor for
a candidate. The opponents of Hig-
gins, including Plat and odeli, say
that If the Democrats indorse Hearst
the situation will compel the accept
ance OF President Rooseveit's aiiesea
advice to nominal Charles E. Hughes,
the lawyer who conducted the. insur-
ance inquiry in order to make certain
of a Republican victory in November.
