THE sULZER-TAMMANY DEAL

New York, Oct. 21.-That Tam
many is not yet through with the
deposed governor, William Sulzer, is
evidenced by the report that PAM
phlet is to be issued giving the al
legged reason why Sulzer Failed to
Take the Stand" This pamphlet will
contain information gathered by the
Frawley investigating committee and
the board of impeachment managers
which was to have been used had
Sulzer testified. t
Charges and counter-charges are
the order of the day between Sulzer
and Murphy of Tammany. Sulzer has
published statements explaining why
Murphy had him impeached, and
Murphy says he will deny these state
ments when Sulzer has finished issu-
ing them. ..-..-
Sulzer is today the domipating fig
ure in the local situation. There is
a little doubt that he will be elected
to the assembly from his district. A
petition signed by $500 persons was
forwarded to Albany urging him to
accept the nomination.

motherhood. It's due to the economic
pressure.
But don't believe the case of this
class of girls is hopeless. They have
a God-given right to bear children
and be happy, and some day the big
employers will be forced to recognize
that. They can't drive this desire for
happiness out of the hearts of the
girls. If they won't make conditions
better for the girls and pay them
more wages voluntarily they'll find
that some day they will be forced to
do it by law. ~.

mothers who are forced to go out and
