IS approved by Murphy, for he taxes up

The startling accusation against SUI

Democratic National Convention in Bait
more last June.

voted for Clark on J. Sergeant cram

ALLEGES Offer OF Plums.

THE National Democratic CLUB gave
dinner AT the Waldorf on the night OF
Anru 70. About / o'clock In the morning
Governor Sulzer awoke the Murphy
household begging for an audience with
Mr. Murphy, which was granted and con-
tlnued until o'clock in the morning. he
informed Mr.. Murphy that he had come
direct from Mr.. Hearsts house where
he was terribly abused
The Governor mentioned the direct
primary bill, said he had no interest In
IL. and wanted Mr.. Murphy to enter into
a scheme TO deceive Mr.. Hearst, which
Mr. Murphv refused To do. AS an induce
ment. he said Mr.. Murphy might name
two Public Service Commissioners. the
Commissioner OF Labor, the Superntend-
ent OF Prisons and any other posi-
lions Mr., Murphy might select. When
this was refused he begged. with tears

Let me recite here an instance OF Gov

timore n poll OF the delegates from New
York State was being taken. J. Sergeant
Cram. a delegate. was absent. He was
known az stanch Wilson man. When
his name was called Mr.. Sulzer answered
for him and voted for Champ Clark.
whereupon Senator OGorman. who was
near by. protested against the unfair and
dishonest act OF Mr.. Sulzer and appealed
10 Mr.. Murphy, who requested the clerk
TO record Mr. Cram as absent No doubt.
Governor Suzer regards this as clean
politics.

have no pride of opinion regarding de-
tails and non-essentials in the construc-
ton and the enactment Of this legisla-
ton. The assertion that ! have said that

ton in fact. l have had too much expert
ence as a legislator TO utter such mar

fact, the truth is, / have no vanity OF
authorship and want none. My struggle
is for the essential principle OF statewide
direct nominations. All | am seeking 10
accomplish is To write on our statute
books and honest and a simple and a
practicable direct nominations law-state-
wide in its scope and application-in order
to carry out in good faith party prom
Uses"
The Governors message begins by re-
peating the primary planks in the state
platforms Of the three leading parties
and makes the following comment:
1t must be apparent 10 the avers &c
man from a careful reading Of these plat
forms that the leading political parties
in our. state are irrevocably committed
by the most explicit promises to the en-
actment Of legislation for direct nomins-
tons. As a matter of fact, IL seems 10
me all the members Of the present Legs
lature are instructed by these pledges OF
their respective parties, and are there
fore in duty bound by the highest political
obligations to vote for a statewide direct
primary measure"
Governor Sulzer reviews his previous
attempts to secure primary legislation
such as he desired. and says that "a
sense OF public obligation made it my
| duty in the interest Of the commonweaI
| to reconvene the Legislature" to pass a

to the people the complete control or tnelI
state government" and that the voters
believe themselves just as competent d.
rectly TO nominate all officials as the dele
gates they select" and adds:
"All the arguments now used against
the abolition Of the convention, or the
delegate system of nominations, have
been used in opposition TO the direct cleo
arguments have been all in vain against
the ever rising tide OF popular sovereignty
and progressive democracy.
The plain fact Is that in our primary
reform legislation we, in New York State
have left of our work just where the citi-
zens expected us to begin. BY not making
our primary law apply directly to the
nomination of state officers we have con-
tinued the delegate system in the psrticu-
lar field in which it has proven the most
unsatisfactory 10 the people.
THAT the voters Of our state are de-
termined TO have no intermediary between
themselves and their public servants has
been shown by the adoption OF the seven
teenth amendment to the federal Constl.
tuition, under which the people have taken
from the legislatures of the states the
right to elect Senators in Congress"
The Governor then strikes at the state
convention principle. saying:
ITO have direct primaries and to have
conventions OF delegates is impossible.
Direct primaries have been devised by
the friends of good government TO permit
the voters in each political party to nomi-
nate their candidates for public Office d.
rectly, without the intermediary of dele
gates, and as. OF course, YOU cannot have
conventions without delegates. It follows.
as the night the day. that the convention
system must go. and honest direct pr-
maries must come. There is no middle
ground. There can be no compromise.
Those who want 20 compromise are
against the enrolled voters OF their party.
You cannot compromise a principle.
at is self-evident to me that IL the
their public officials they are Just as COM
petent to directly nominate these same
officials. Any assertion to the contrary is
an indictment against the intelligence OF
the electorate Of the state.
IF II is important for minor officials to
be nominated by the people. II is still
more important. II seems to me, that the
people be given the power 20 nominate
candidates for United States Senator and
for Governor. II selfish interests seek TO
control public affairs for the promotion of
their personal ends. through the manipu-
lation Of party conventions. the plain peo-
pie should seek TO do the same thing by
taking in their own hands the right TO
nominate directly every one OF these i'm.
portant officials.

JUDGE TO BE PAID

Santa Fe, N. NJ, Oct. 6.-The at
torney general has rendered to the
state auditor an opinion regarding
the payment Of the salary of Judge G
4, Richardson, the additional judge
in the Fifth district, provided for at
the last session Of the legislature. II
appears that no specific appropiia-
tion was made for the additional
judge, although an appropriation of
$4,000 was made for the payment
of the salaries of the eight judges
The opinion rendered by Mr.. Clancy
is very lengthy. However, in brief it
may be said that he refers to the fact
that the constitution fixes the salary
of the district judges as well as other
officers.

JOSE cLEMENTE sANDoVAL ASKS
DAMAGES FROM BENIGNo
lJARAMILLo


The case OF Jose 'Clemente Sando-
val against Benigno Jaramillo was
on trial before Judge D. ]. Leahy this
morning The men involved reside
in, Antonchieo, Guadalupe county. The
plaintiff Sandoyal brings a suit
against Jaramillo for $4,000 dam
ages, alleging in his complaint that
Jaramillo willfully and maliciousIy
shot him in the month Of April, 1910.
Jaramillo, who is a large sheep
owner was lambing his floeks in
April, 1910, and the plaintiff was
working as cook at the camp. AS he
stepped into the tent where the sup
plies were kept and was STOPPING
down to get some potatoes from
box, the plaintiff states that Jara-
milo appeared in the door Of the tent
with rifle in his hand and discharg-
ed a shot at him. the bullet striking
him in the right ankle.
Sandoval and JaramiHo had had
some trouble during the day and the
plaintiff gives that as a reason for
JaramiIlo shooting him. The plaintiff
states that he suffered a great deal
from the wound and that it took near
ly two years for it to heal, and even
at this time he is compelled to walk |
with cane and can do ITO work
It is understood that Jaramillo will
claim that the rifle was discharged
accidentally; that as soon as he real 4
ized the bullet had struck sandoval
he rode four miles to Antonchico, Sc
cured the services Of DR.. Martin, had
the wounded man conveyed to his own
home and did all he could to make
him comfortable. The case hardly
will be concluded today.
