Sulzer. Ten months ago Murphy
caused a democratic state convention
to nominate him for governor. There
was a better photograph of
Murphy than this.
Murphy's enemies have described
him as a low corrupt and stupid boss.
His friends don't deny that he is a
contractor in politics for his own
pocket. But they point tut that
Murphy is not stupid.
How could a stupid boss maintain
himself in control Of Tammany Hall
for ten years?" they ask. How could
a stupid boss control four democratic
state conventions? Croker, who is
