N-GOV. VIM. SULzER
COMES BACK STRONG
Elected to New York Assembly
by Sweeping Plurality.
SCORES CHAS. F. MURPHY.
Verdict of High Court of Impeach-
ment Reversed by the People,
Says Deposed Governor.

New York, Nov. 5.-William Sui
ger, ousted from the governorship of
New York last month by verdict of q
hlgh court of impeachment, was
elected to the state assembly yester-
day from the sixth district by a
sweeping plurality, estimated at
1000 or more. Sulzer ran on the
Progressive ticket and apparently
polled more votes than his Republi-
can and Democratic opponents COM
bined His old neighbors on the East
Side rallied strongly to his support,
and it was early apparent that he had
swamped the opposition.
There was jubilation unbounded
in the former governors headquar-
ters as the count began to record his
victory. SulZer himself was all
smiles. He regarded his triumph as
personal vindication, he said, and
issued a statement thanking his sup
porters and scoring Charles f. Muir
ply, leader of Tammany Hall, who,
he declared was condemned by the
vote the district gave to William Sui
Zer as its representative at Albany.
"The people of the sixth assembly
district" said Sulzer. think better
of me than of Mr. Murphy. They
know why Mr.. Murphy removed me
when Mr.. Murphy asked me to do
wrong / refused to do wrong: they
know when Mr.. Murphy tried to bribe
me l refused to be bribed; they know
when Mr.. Murphy threatened me 1
defied his threats. The voters have
now condemned Mr.. Murphy; revers-
ed the judgment of his high court OF
infamy and vindicated me by the YER
dict of the polls, which, in the last
analysis is the opinion of mankind.
From Mr.. Murphy's high court Of
infamy l appealed to the higher court
of public opinion. Mr.. Murphy says
there was no appeal from his court,
but Mr.. Murphy was mistaken; and
he knows now that the judgment OF
the people can reverse the judgment
of any court"
SulZer made his fight for election
to the assembly on the lines of the
statement he issued last night. His
canvass was a whirlwind affair,
demonstrative crowds greeting him
wherever he spoke. He rarely went
outside of his district, but his speech
es within that radius were directed
as much at the Tammany organiza-
ton, in it's city-wide and statewide
bearings, as to an appeal to his i'm
mediate constituency.

Max Carey, left fielder of the Pitts

last season, may wear a Washington
uniform next year. for 1t was learned
that Manager Griffth was dickering
for Carey and that the deal might go

does not show 500 batting average.
He played in every game on the
schedule, made 80 runs. 172 hits, stole
68 bases and hit 27S.

the unanimous opinion Of the many
dealers and men high up In the motor

of inspecting this wonderful car be-
fore it was placed upon the market,
but even these optimistic judges were
surprised by the manner in which the
automobile buying public has taken to
this Master Six In fact, right from
the very start the 1914 Chalmers six
has kept the dealers and distributors
on the jump. to say nothing of the
big Chalmers factory, which is put
ting forth every effort to produce Just
as many cars as it can consistently
manufacture and still keep up the
high standard of quality. which has
so long distinguished the Chalmers

exhibitors would think 1t was a
printers error.
Mrs. Mandy was paid. believe.

really means that she was paid $500
to Judge "a Pomeranians and 10
Pekingese spaniels and practice on
the remainder of the show.
If the Pomeranian and Pekingese
fanciers wanted her. that was all
right. but why force a judge upon the

about their breeds? Boston terriers
and French bulldogs were the second

could have got some capable local
Judges to officiate and thus have
avoided having things mixed up as
they were. Too many show giving
clubs have members that are interest

happens In other breeds, or who
judges them, just so their favorite
breed is judged correctly.
