David q. Mn Tried to Induce Him to
Run for Governor Of New York
In 1902 In Opposition to
Odeli.

Some time I'm August. 1902, David

the Democratic party who we're re-
garded as leaders In New York state
TO visit In Albany at his home. VOL

friends had been summoned To his
house rather than 10 his Office was
sufficient indication that Hill purposed
talking politics with them.
Among Senator Hills callers was
Alton u. Parker, chief Justice OF the
court OF appeals OF New York state,
and at an opportune moment Mr.. Hill
began TO explain the reasons he had
called the conference.
IF J am any Judge ~ political con

party this year might elect Its candi.

ticket Governor Odell will be rec
commended by the Republicans. I have
good reason for knowing that odell
Is not at all confident that he can
be reelected. As a politician. Odcll

my respect. He II always anxious TO
know the exact facts. He doesn't

Of II have told him that the outlook
for his party Is very squally. Now
think We have an opportunity TO
win. and n We are going To accept

candidate for governor"
Having so expressed himself. Mr..
HIN looked at Judge Parker. silently.
penetratingly. for q moment. and then
continued: Judge, In my opinion you
are the man 10 be nominated for gov

you why. am certain that you will

than you we shall have greater didl-

Judge Parker's answer was that

moments pause, Il don't want you to
give me a definite answer today.

but one thing to do. and that Is to
nominate Bird s. Coler."
And several weeks later. on election
night. Governor Hill was more than
ever OF the belief that had Judge
Parker been his party's candidate for
governor. he would have been elected
for Golfer was defeated by Odell by
only eight thousand plurality.
Two years later. when Judge Parker
was nominated for the presidency by
the Democracy. he was reminded Of
the chat. here made public for the
FIRST time. which he had with Governor
Hill. and his reply was that the NOM
nation for president had come to him
without his having raised his hand
to secure II. and that he was Of the
opinion of one OF the statesmen of
an earlier day. that the presidency
should neither be sought nor declined.

made to fit well by the following little
trick After sewing up three sides
