Lets Friend Make An
nOuncement for Him at
Upstate Clambake.
MALONE WILL FIGHT
HIS NOMINATION
Possible Candidates. of SulzeT
and Roosevelt Worrying the
Democratic Chiefs.

Governor Martin II. Glynn has de
cidcd at last to become a candidate 10
succeed himself. While attending \
clambake in Poughkeepsic yesterday he
permitted Edward f.. Perkins. treas
Urcr Of the Democratic State Commit
tee. TO make this statement:
"You can say with author that If
the Governors friends see fit to tender
him the nomination for Governor he
will accept it. This is the first Official
statement regarding Governor GlJ-n's
candidacy TO succeed himself
From the start the Governor has
wanted to be his own successor. but up
to the present time he has not been
able to persuade himself that he had
any chance OF winning at the polls.
Only recently he said he would not
walk across the street to take any
nomination,
Although the Independent element IN
the party would rather have another
candidate than Glynn. it has been con-
cedcd by the leaders, such as William
Church Osborn, chairman of the state
committee. and william F. McCombs,
chairman of the national committee.
that they could not very well night
against him if he wished to make the
race for the nomination.
Malone Will Fight.
However. the group Of independents
of which Collector Dudley Field Ma
lone is the representative are bitter
~ opposed to the Governor. There is
no question that they will seriously
consider placing an independent ticket
in the field at the primaries. and pos
sbly on Election Day, if Glynn should
become the candidate. Mr.. Malone will
undoubtedly try to get Mayor Mitchell
interested in an anti-Glynn movement
Tammany has been well pleased with
the Governor and what he has done
for them. Only few days ago Tam
many leader remarked that they would
sec to the denomination of Governor
Glynn if he wanted it. However,
this man said. at looks to me as
though the Governor had case of cold
feet"
Political experts have pretty vel
agreed that the Democratic candidate
for Governor would probably win II
Colonel Roosevelt should run on the
Progressive ticket. If the Colonel
does not run the situation would be
vastly different and the Democratic
leaders have expressed the opinion thai
this was a Republican year
William Sulzer, who has announced
that he will be an independent candi-
date on Election Day, will draw many
Democratic votes. Estimates OF Sulz'
.er's possible vote average about !Oo''
900. Some of this would come from
the Progressive ranks, however:
There is no question that Sulzer
would put up a more bitter night
against Glynn than any other candi-
date. as it is Glynn who is filhng the
place Sulzer believes he was ousted
from by fraud. During the time that
SulZcr was bONefHOl anu Wy hh b'NS
tenant Governor the two men were at
swords points.
Hearst for Glynn.
William Randolph Hearst without
much question will support the Gov
ernor. They have been much IN eacn
others company since the first OF the
wear. and only recently the Governor
accompanied Mr.. Hearst TO Chicago.
Political gossips have grouped MT
Hearst with the Governor as candl-
date for United States Senator. The
publisher has been much in the posi-
ton of the Governor waiting TO see
if he had a chance.
Il was said in Poughkeepsie last
night that the Governor, after attend
inc the clambake in his honor by the
automobile clubs of that city, King
ston and Newburg had gone 10
New York. At the Hotel Vanderbilt,
where he has always stayed. 1t was

WAS he to be found at any one ot a
number OF other prominent hotels.
Chairman Osborn was out OF the city,

Murphy was said to be at Good Grounh;
Chairman McCombs, at the Oriental
Hotel. expressed surprise at the an
nouncement. but would make no COM
ment. He said he had no knowledge
of the whereabouts of the Governor.
