T. R. GOVERNOR,
SULZER PREDICTS
Tells Assembly Ex.President Will
Begin Cleaning State of
Graft on January 1.
rBy Telezraph 10 The Tribune.

Albany, Feb. 3.-Assemblyman William
Sulzer in his maiden speech at the ses-
sion to-day said that if the Assembly did
not do its duty i'm roofing out graft
through an honest statewide investlga-
ton "a man who knows public opinlon'
whose fingers are always on the pulse or
the popuace, will return in the spring ana
lead the fight for decent citizenship ana
honest government. Ind knowing what
know to-day, I have no hesitancy IN pre-
dieting that he will take control or the
state government after the first OF next
January"
Whom did you mean by that remark
Mr.. Suzer was asked.
Roosevelt, OF course" he replied.
Mr.. Sulzer made his speech In support
Of the motion OF the Progressive leader,
Michael Schaap, 10 discharge the Ways
and Means Committee from further con-
sIderaton of his resolution providing for
a statewide graft investigation.
After a reasonable time" said Sulzer,
ut was my purpose to move. II the COM
mittec did not act, for a discharge Of the
resolution hich | presented for a state
wide investigation of graft, graft. graft.
And no man in the state knows more
about it than / do. And no man In the
history Of our commonwealth has been a
greater victim Of the iniquity which hon
eycombs almost every department OF our
state"
Mr.. Sulzer said that in the Investigation
Of graft all crooks looked alike TO the tax
payer and that politics should play no
part.
II know that over 100000 OF the tax
PAYERS money was stolen in highway con-
struction in 1912: so with the canals. 50
with other state departments-pllage run
ming into the millions. We demand a
statewide probe.
II am here as an independent. I owe
no allegiance to any party. My purpose
before this session is over is 20 tell some
truths that Will shame the people OF this
state. so far as William Sulzer is con-
cerned.
I'VE have got 10 investigate because
the powers of the district attorneys are
so circumscribed. We know the trials that
have beset the heroic District Attorney OF
New York County. We should call him
into council: we shoule get the benefit of
his advice. We should make him, if pos
sjble. one Of the lawyers for the commit
