Amused by Bryan
The appearance Of William Jennings
BRYAN as a sponsor for Governor Glynn
at The Democratic meeting in Brooklyn
on Tuesday night rather amused Chair
man Tanner
Although he has not arranged his law
practice vet so as 70 enable him 70 tour
the state for Mr. Whitman, Mr. Hin
man is hard at work in Binghamton.
The following letter received from him
by Chairman Tanner yesterday is evl-
dence thereof:
"You may rest assured that every
thing possible will be done to put
things in line here and to roll up
good majority for Mr.. Whitman and the
Republican ticket from top TO bottom;
Last week I wrote over five hundred
personal letters to my republican
friends in each Of the to and wards
in this city, asking as personal favor
10 me that they do everything they can
for the ticket.
"The preliminary reports I have re-
ceived." said Samuel S. Koenig, presi-
dent Of the County Committee, last
night, "show remarkably strong SEN
timent for Whitman. We have also
found evidence that William Sulzer
will poll a good-sized vote in some OF
the downtown districts. In some OF
them he is a great deal stronger than
Frederick NJ. Davenport"
Another Progressive who has left
that party and come out for District
Attorney Whitman is Abraham II.
Sarasohn, d lawyer, well known In
Jewish circles. He is sending person
al letter to District Attorney Whitman
and has accepted the presidency OF the
East Side Whitman League. Mr.. Sara
sohn was the Progressive nominee for
Congress in the 18th District, but with
drew in favor Of q fusion with the Re
publicans. He says he has left the Pro
gressives because of his disgust with
Colonel Roosevelt, whose attacks on
Mr.. Whitman, he holds, stamp him as
an ally Of Tammany hall.
