New-York tribune., 1910-09-23

Hfaxor's nomination come from, the tlr,sfafe
Democrats But over here we are in no
way bound 10 them. and TO my notion the
best way to win the nomination for Mayor
Is 10 come IL the open for him
Mr. Murphy Breaks Silence.
Until yesterday Charles F. Murphy. the
leader of Tammany Hall. had preserved a
discreet silence in regard TO possibilities.
But he went so far yesterday as to say:
a-The sentiment OF the state seems to favor
the nomination OF Mayor Gaynor for Gov
ernor" He went no further not asserting
that Tannany had any choice in the mat
ter.
This statement was made in the presence
or number of physicians who had come to
urge upon him the nomination OF Congress
man sulzer for Governor They said that
the Tammany leader added: ''Sulzer is also
much talked about. have had men going
about through the state. and they report
that the people seem TO want the Mayor
nominated, with Sulzer as second choice.
AS Mr.. Murphy is understood 10 be un-
alterabIy opposed to Mr.. Sulzer. the fact
that he would say this about him led some
wise heads TO figure out that the boss Of
Tammany Hall was convinced that the
Mayor would be the nominee
The sulzer delegation asked Mr.. Murphy
Il he did not think that much of the Gay
nor sentiment had been manufactured
''Some OF II may have been manufactured" I"
be is reported as having said. 'fbut we shall
nominate the man the people want"
Mr.. Murphy made some more evasive re-
plies. saying that Sulzer was good and
great man, which led the Sulzer boomers
rr-ae
really convinced that he had much strength.
The onward march to Rochester VIII be
started by MIR. Murphy and his advisers On
Monday or Tuesday. State Chairman DIX
left the city yesterday for Troy. From
there he goes to his home In Washington
County, and will be on the convention hat
tie ground the first thing next week
Dix Calls 20 Local Men.
Before leaving the city yesterday he sent
the following dispatch TO all the members
Of the state committee and all the county
chairmen,
II is OF vital Importance that IN every
county and legislative district in the state
the strongest possible nominations be made
for Legislature. Congress and all local Of
fees.
Act with deliberation. Strengthen the
party and serve the people by nominating
n your various local. conventions candl-
dates Of conceded character and ability.
Indications point 70 nominations at Roch-
ester that viii sweep the state Nothing
can be more conducive TO great Demo
cratic victory that viii include Demo-
cratic Legislature and Democratic Con-
Eress than the nomination by local con-
ventions OF popular and unassailable can
dldates.
This year every county. every Legislative
district. in the state Is Democratic or de-
batable II Democratic conventions do their
duty and give the people clean and Capa-
bic candidates.
Sentiment was divided yesterday as to
whether the reply Of William Randolph
Hearst 10 Mayor Gaynors criticism of the
Hearst newspapers would injure or benefit
Mayor Gaynor should he run for Governor.
Some took the ground that Il would make
martyr out Of the Mayor and attract votes
he would not otherwise get Others seemed
10 think that Mr.. Heerst's batteries would
be damaging 10 q Gaynor candidacy. Al
any rate. the statement OF Mr.. Hearst was
taken as assuring the attitude he would
take against the Mayor whether he should
be candidate for Governor or not
