Murphy go2" he said He won't go
without a fight. and what's the use of
fighting? We haven't got anything
to fight about. The other fellows have
all the jobs"
But everywhere was the rumor that
Murphy must CO. II not from one cause
then from another. The real charge
that politicians brought against him
was one of generalship. Why did
Murphy let the impeachment of Sulzer
come just when IL did? Was II not
in the primer of politics that the re-
venge of Suffers supporters would be
visited on the candidate OF Tammany
Hall, no matter what his personal ca
pacity might be? Was not Murphy pri-
marily to blame for letting Judge Nc
Call stand before the people as a pas
chal offering for the acts of Sulzer
and against SulZer?
Murphy himself did not think any
thing of the sort AT any rate, he did
not admit ii when he talked for the
newspapers today. Not a cloud was
on his brow. He had the same com
placence that he has worn through the
whole campaign. When he walked
into Tammany Hall this afternoon there
was cheerfulness in his manner that
seemed uncanny.
Are you going to resign your leader
ship of Tammany Halle" he was asked
I. He replied that he was not. Mr.
Murphy said he wasn't worrying about
anything because he had nothing to
worry about.

HOW SPOONER QUIT SMOKING
Son Of Former Senator From Wlscon-

was my belief. / knew the habit was

that before he left 1t would be good

him, and he responded. Once in

would give me consolation to know
that wherever you are you are in no
danger of being ruined by drink

see each other for some time. This
smoking is running your health. I
would like to feel while l am away

smoking and ! will quit drinking
My son. said I. you have touched
me In very weak spot. take great
delight In smoking a good cigar, but If
you are game so am l. We will both
quit our bad habits.'"
The senator says he and his son
shook hands on the compact and that
both OF them have kept their pledges.
