All Left to Murphy.
| II is all up to Murphy Probably no
| candidate In twenty years has had
more unanimous opposition ,han APP
pears To Dix among the upstate men.
They don't like him personally, though
! they admit that he IS inoffensive
enough. They don't like his admin
istration. for they know II Is unpopu-
lar all through the upstate section, yet
/ they admit that their campaign must
/ be- made on the record Of that admin
/ istration. They say he could not be re-
elected yet the greatest argument
against him IS that he has done what
the organization" and Murphy wanted
every time. So they are against Dix,
/ although II Murphy sticks 10 mis- guns
! they viii swallow Dix cheerfully
enough-just az cheerfully as they
! swallowed him two years ago.
, The point of ali the opposition TO Dix
! IS that he cannot be elected. His bit

candidate chosen. however fair" the
thing Murphy ultimately decides TO DO,

II IL said here by persons close 20 tho
Dem Dcratic National Committee that

nomination. wants tho Democrats 10
nominate an Irish Catholic. This. ne

coolest and rawest dav thai ever con-
frontcd convention. does not believe
that fate awaits his partner and patron
for one moment. He admitted that he
was here In Mr.. Dixs interest.
DO you expect he Will be renomi-
rated?' he was asked.
Il certainly do" replied the erst-
while state chairman. and he looked
AZ II he meant II.
Haven't you heard there il much
opposition To the Governor"

does IL exist?"
Mr. Huppuch said he had not heard
anything about the possibility Of nomi-
