Democrats Of New York

The state convention of the Democrats of New York at Syracuse was a lively affair. Hon. Perry Kelmont was choseD chairman. The platform adopted stood for a more liberal interpretation of the excise laws, and for more ocal government of cities; for sound money - as opposed to free silver: and roasted the Republicans to a turn their administration of state affairs. Cleveland"s administration was commended, but a rather negative twist was given the third term idea. There was an ugly tight over the seating of delegates and the leaders had plenty of trouble getting thing untangled. The ticket named was as follows: For secretary of state, Horatio ('. King, of Kings county; comptroller, .John B. Judson, of Fulton; state treasurer, D. 0. Dow, of Schohaiie: attorney, Norton Chase, of Albany: state engineer, Russell Stuart, of Onondaga; judge of eourt of appeals, John (!. Teller, of Auburn.
