Governor Burke Is a Democrat* of
the old school. Like Governor Harmon
of Ohio, be is one of the conservative
type and has never been on
very intimate terms with the more
radical leaders of the Democratic
party. At the same time he has carefully
kept himself wltktn the fold of
the Democratic party and It Is believed
that no member of that party
would have any sound reason for
voting against him. HI* friends nre
