SURE SULZER WILL WIN
Colonel Bacon Says Congress-
man Will Sweep Convention.

Alexander S. Bacon, the manager OF the
ca ampaign Of Congressman Sulzer for the
Democratic nomina ton for Governor. IS
bubbling over with enthusiasm regarding
the chances of his candidate Il don
think there is any doubt said Colonel
Bacon Yesterday. as he dipped his brush
into the rosy hues Of the rainbow, that
our candidate will larry everything with
little opposition.
Asked for particulars, Colonel Bacon
gave some figures. II expect he de-
clared, that Mr. Sulzer will get the dele
gates from eighteen of the twenty-three
districts in Kings County. He IS sure OF
eight or ten districts in Manhattan. and all
except one. possibly that. In The Bronx.
Of the Queens delegates We feel reasonably
certain and our prospect for carrying the
delegations in Richmond. Suffolk and Mas
sau are excellent
Congressman Sulzer has sent most en-
couraging reports from his campaigning
trip up the state, where he says the seed
sown in the last two or three months is
beginning to bear fruit.
Congressman Sulzer has been indOrsed
by the only two district conventions that
have met so far to elect delegates to the
state convention" said Colonel Bacon
These districts are the 1st and I'd. in
Chautauqua County. l have received word
from J. O. Bennett there that although
the delegates were not instructed for any
particular candidate. in both conventions
resolutions were passed unanimously in
dorsing the candidacy of Mr. Sulzer.
You will see this thing repeated when
the other conventions elect delegates 70 the
convention.

sent to him by Senator kean, although he
steadfastly refused to make public the text
of the Senator's letter Mr.. Murphy's letter
follows:
