TIE New YORK DEMOCRATS met IN COD
vention at Utica on the first day OF the
month and succeeded in nominating ticket
and getting platform on the second day.
Horatio Seymour, of fragrant memory, did
the convention honor by presiding over Its
deliberations. The Apollo Hall delegation
from New York City was refused admittanee,
and the Tammany delegation recognized very
Justly as the representatives of the pure d.
mocracy of that city. The Appollonians
thereupon went home after growling..a few
resolutions of subdued nature. lively
f ,ht was indulgei in over the retention of
Mr.. Thomas Klnsella, editor of the Brooklyn
Eagle, upon the State Committee. Mr.. Kim
sella being member of Congress, opposed
the salary grab by his vote. but took the e1-
ira remuneration for his valuable services
which his fellow congressman forced upon
him. The Convention concluded that it
| would not have patriots of that sort upon
the Democratic State Committee which was
very sensible conclusion to come to though
| Mr.. kinsella doesn't seem pleased.
The resolutions are of the usual sort. but
are rather more Astounding in denunciatory
adjectlves than is common even for our irrl-
tated opponents. The following resolution
seems to be to the point, full as much so as
any that we have seen passed by republicans
| We condemn and denounce the salary grab
and a II congressman, Democratic or Repuo'
lican, who voted for it or who have not re-
nounced all share in plumber seized for &
service already done and paid for.
| The ticket is as follows: Secretary of State
Diedrich Wlllers, Jr Controller, Asher P.
Nichols; Attorney General, Daniel j. Pratt
State Treasurer, Thomas Raines State En-
gineer, Sylvanus II. Sweet; Canal Commits
sioner, James Jackson, Jr.; State Prison In

This useful branch~ n war De-

accurate that skeptics have been con,
verted into believers, and few now can
b found foolish enough to ignore Its

From the s. F. Bulletin, April sth.l


For the second time within a few
months the statement Is made OF the
serious illness of Pope Plus TX. I'M
der any circumstances this announce
ment would probably be regarded as
of great moment to the Catholic
Church, but wt1sna man Of over four
score wears takes to his bed. and Is for
hidden to leave his apartments, his
death Is a contingency which Is not
| calculated to create a surprise at any
moment. Pope Plus is'represented as
a vigorous old man, but of somewhat
lp,et6orie habit and liabie c amy mo-
! ment to pay the debt Of nature.
| Whether this Illness does or not re-
move the occupant Of the chair of ST..
| Peter, his present condition iscaicu-
LATED TO excite alarm In that Church
which numbers Its votaries by tens and
hundreds OF millions, and which has
erected Its banners In all parts OF the
world. Q iye' 90 >"
The history Of the ponti1cate Of Plus
Tx, is certainly most interesting.
Gathered around 1t are trials and'tn-
umphs Of the Pspal See, which will
make his biography AN important
chapter, not only In the history Of the
Roman Catholic Church, but OF mod
ern Italy. The last occasion when the
Pope was announced In serious danger
Of death, 1t was specially ayerred that
the Emperor Of Germany Intended '
ing q hand IN the appointment Of his
successor. Notwithstanding that the
day has gone BY sinos an Emperor OIL
Germany WILL do penaRce to appease
the ill-will Of the Vatican, the head OF
the Catholic hierarchy possesses a
power,which no potentats can Ignore
nor despise.
A. Again reverting to Plus TX. during
his career, tho pontificate has seen
some strange mutations. Two years
after his election In 1916, saw the Ito.
sral movement arise In Rome, with the
Pope at Its head. 1t has also witnessed
the rise and fall of the second French
Empire the development Of Prussia
and the discontinue of Austria ; the
resuscltation Of the German Empire ;
the great American civil war; the es-
tabllshment of a Republic In Spain,
formerly tho most devoted Of Catholic
countries ; and the loss Of the temper
alities of the Church with the unitca-
ton of all Italy. Coming to matters
purely ecclesiastical during the time
Plus IL. has worn the tiara, there have
been promulgated a definition Of the
immaculate conception, and the bold
proclamation of the infallibility dogma
by the Ecumenical Council.
Enough has been outlined above to
show the momentous events transpir.
ing during the pontilcate Of Pho Mono,
which perhaps shall furnish the future
student with facts for a history as en-
chanting as that from the pen Of a Ma
csulay,a Bancroft or a Motley. The
only Pope, who in the long line has
bsheld the "days Of St. Peter" there
clusters around his life associations
more Interesting probably than any
attached to his predecessors.
