P —— An Unfortunate Associntion—Murphy with Lott. ho contest for the nomination of the Democratle party for Governor is in reality narrowed down to two aspirants, John 'T. Hoffinan and Hoary C. Murphy. Mr. Murphy has occupied several oMfetal positions, but they have not been of a kind to make him very inuch known personally to the people of the State. Ho is known to bo [a eeholarly man, and he has Jong made politics, as well as law and literature, a study.
