4.9/5 (25692 ratings)

Description:From the INTRODUCTION IN the impeachment and removal of Governor William Sulzer the arrogance of corrupt bossism in New York State reached its zenith in boldness and brutality. Up to that time political bosses had controlled party organizations; they had commanded legislatures and administrative officers of the state government; they had nominated, for a consideration, justices of the supreme court, but it remained for Charles F. Murphy, the reigning boss of his period, to impeach and remove a governor only because the governor refused to do the bidding of the boss. In that respect and for many other reasons the removal of Governor Sulzer is without a parallel in the history of impeachments or since civilized government began. It is one of the crises in human affairs, an event of epochal importance in the evolution of popular government. Only the perspective, which time and vision create, can reveal its tremendous significance. The purpose of this book is to bring clearly to the attention of the reader the vital happenings, preceding and immediately following the impeachment. One of its objects is to make plain to the ordinary citizen the underground or hidden causes that make such events possible in a country where the people are supposed to be sovereign. Governor Sulzer was nominated in a convention controlled by the boss, who in less than ten months from the date of his inauguration brought about his removal. "Whatever may have been the governor's shortcomings before he was installed as chief executive there was no evidence adduced to prove that he was faithless to his trust after he became governor."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
