Criticism.
Many Republicans Of New
York Dissatisfied and
Disguised.

caI dlOSos Lit second D2llOG
was taken amid breathless silence.
and while the vote was being
counted, there were MANY changes
of votes. BrOOme County DELEGATES
changed from Robinson to F0lcer.
and Saratoga County announced a
of eight votes from Storm to
Cornell. Montgomery County then
withdrew Storm. and changed
its vote to Cornell. Lewis
County changed four votes from
Wadsworth to Cornell. Much con-
fusion and excitement at this point |
brought all the men on their feet at
the same time and announcing |
changes. The chairman found it /
impossible to restore order, and re-
fused to recognize delegates till |
quiet was restored disorder reigned |
and for some minutes it looked as |
if the convention was making a !
stampede toward Cornell, and eX-
element was at fever heat. At |
length order was restored. The
Oneida delegate announced a change
Of delegates from WadsWorth to
Cornell. Loud calls for another
roll call and confusion was re-
newed. Delegates charged that the
change Of Oneida to Cornell had
been announced without authority,
and the roll call of this county re-
suited in nine for WadsWorth, two
for Cornell, two for Folger. Niagara
announced a change of vote from
WadswOrth to FOlger. Monroe an
nOunced like change, and delegates
changed from WadswOrth to Cornell.
Delegates shouted. Gardner of Mon
roe changed from Wsdsworth to
Folger. The delegates were now
on the seats in different parts of
the hall shouting at the chair
man, but no one was recognized.
Order being somewhat restored,
General Sharpe, who nominated
Folger, announced that Ulster
County desired to cast nine votes
for Folger. The changes were
showing unfaYorable to Cornell, and
a St Lawrence delegate said it
was evident Judge FOlger had the
nomination, and ne moved the
nomination be made by acclama-
ton. Ruled out OF order. Sharpe
asked that the announcements about
to be made be made decently and in
order. and that the delegates take
their seats. Order was finally re-
| stored. Vote announced as fol
J lows: Folger PSI, Cornell 222. Wads-
worth IS; necessary to choice
249. The result was received
| with tumultuOuS cheers. Warner
Miller United States senator, said
the friends Of Governor Cornell
have labOred necessarily to secure
| his denomination, and moved that
! his nomination of Judge Folger be
| made unanimous. This was done.
COMMENTS.
! New York, 20.-TO-mOrrOw' s S7tli
VIII say Of FOlger, in nomination fOI
| governor in Saratoga yesterday
| The republicans put up candidate
whose name ought to be an adj
monitiOn to democrats at Syracuse
| to-day. FOlgers political experience
and official career in the legislature
on the bench as chief justice of the
court Of appeals, and in President
| ArthurS cabinet rs secretary Of the
| treasury, has set him before the
public as man Of weight and judg
| ment. He win have full support OF
the republican party Of the state
He viii be strongly sustained by the
administration and all the power and
discipline of the republican machine
will be brought out in his behalf.
New York, Accelerated or vic
toriOus the republican party of New
York has received a blow In the
house of the friends. which is purely
a gratituous = trifling with its
strength, and which viii do mere
than anything which has happened
| in the last ten years 10 diminish its
| capacity for growth, and to leave 1t
4 without sympathy or respect OF
] those who looked tOit as an eXpOn-
ent of political morality and the
bchampion of political reform.
Tomorrow Times has the fol
I lowing on the convention: The re-
, suit viii be a disappointment to 8
majority OF republicans and to
large number Of voters Whc, or
Il other than party grounds, have ap
preciated the significance Of the
!, ! fight made against Governor Cor
, nell. 1t may also tUrn cut disap
pointment TO the men who have
, mainly been instrumental in bring
: ing it about. The alleged repre-
! sentatiYes have deliberately sc
aside the strongest candidat
. presented 10 them, and havl
/ chosen nominee who, ]
: | not the weakest in the public est
) imatiOn, is at least the representa-
81 tive Of the weakest and most an
lpopular section of tie republican
party. 1t is sufficient TO note tn
fact that the republican party
81 represented by candidate who i
! not in any sense the choice of tn
: majority of the voters, and who.
2 elected as all, must owe the electieI
altogether to the instinct Of part
rather than to popular choice. ia
