choice was made in opposition to the
views of Charles +. Murphy, who mad
William II. Edwards in mind for the
Office. Mr. Smith was elected SherlH
by a plurality OF mor5 than 41OOO.
He is recognized as one Of the saneSt
and most vigorous leaders OF Tammany
Hall. and his name has been mentioned
as a possible successor to Murphy. Al
though loval always TO the organiza-
ton, Mr.. Smith has never shown the
slightest hesitation in informing ram
many when his views differed from IT'S
edicts.
Foremost in his mind, apparently
was his loyalty to his city. Machine
measures which conficted with this
were not in favor with Assem- olyman
Smith. and Tammauy Hall gossip IS re-
ulete with the pungent advice whlch nc
offered 10 the Wigwam leaders.
He was prominent IN obtaining the
massage of public service legislation
and active in pushing practical social
bcttermcnt laws designed 20 protect the
health and safety Of workers.
When he had held the job Of Sheriff
for few months he decided that pri-
vate secretary was not necessary 70 MS

the members Of the Board OF Estimate g

that fact to them with bluntness and
recommending that the $1,000 position
