Excerpt from Sulzer's Short Speeches: Carefully Compiled From the Records of Congress With Other Official Data and a Brief Biographical Sketch There are two distinct types of men in public life today, one that is constantly in the limelight because of "grandstand plays" and their ability to sound their own trumpets, or getting their friends to do it for them, the other those that "do things, " but who are too modest to speak about them, being content to let the records they make speak for themselves. To this latter class belongs William Sulzer, the able, honest, eloquent and progressive Democratic representative of the City of New York. Emerson has truly said that every commanding monument in the annals of the world is the triumph of enthusiasm, and Mr. Sulzer has triumphed over every obstacle by reason of his intense enthusiasm in the cause, and his determination to do the right thing, no matter what the consequences may be. He puts industry, determination, and genuine enthusiasm in all his work, and he is a worker. Mr. Sulzer is to-day the ranking Democratic Congressman in party service in the United States north of Mason and Dixon's line. His district in the City of New York is practically a Republican one. no Democrat having carried it since 1892 except Mr. Sulzer, and he has carried it by increased majorities in every Congressional campaign since 1894. The record of his increasing majorities under adverse circumstances tells the story. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
