Editorial Correspondence OF Rhe Tfloupe
SYRACUSE, Friday, Sept n, 1850.
I'VE give the following fuller sketch Of the debate on
proceeding 20 ballot for officers before discussing the Res
olutonB
Mr. HAsBRoucK OF Orange assigned hs reasons
for oppoaing nomination at this time. He would
not unite in any nomination until platform of prin
ciples should first be settled. Unless the Nationa
Adinistr alton il to be sustained and she late set
sEoa4ols as Warrington approved, he should nos
wish to unite in the selection or support of any
ticket.
Mr. DuER took the same view of the question
and argued that he could not proceed to nominate
until he knew what principles were to be presented
in the resolutions.
Mr. CoRNwELL replied He wished no new prin-
ciples adopted, but the well.known principles Of
the Wing party reaGirmed-the principles OF the
Wings Of New-York as affirmed by the Conven
tiona Of 1913 and 1919. He wished the Convention
70 proceed in regular order to the nomination OF
State Officers and then TO the confederation OF
resolutions and he had no fear that the Convention
would affirm any other than the time honored doc
trines OF the Wing patty.
Mr. CoRNwELL was, az Mr. DuER had beer,
called to order for referring to the principles TO be
affirmed by the Convention
W. 8. Smith would not decline voting, but
would bolt the ticket if the principles adopted did
not suit him. nc.
