I,p.Ny Sept 21.-The leaders of the Democratic
-, hove selected the man whom they intend to
m, nm AGAINST Mr.. Carr, the head of the Republican
,,otat Rv LEADERS" Is meant the TIden-Cleve-
land politicaus who control the machinery OF the
democratic party and who it now seems prooaole'
will have possession of the Democratic state Con
ventiop. Their candidate Is Isaao II. Maynard Oh
Delaware County.
For several weeks Ii has been their design 10
nominate men of high character for state oinoes
this fall with the idea of retaining large propor
ton of the huge vote given for Cleveland last iaiL
Clear-headed Democratic politicians said they did
not believe that single Republican VINO voteo ior
Cleveland bad passed over to the Democratic partyI
vet they acknowledged that the nomination OF
Bourbon Democrats or mere politicians would nave
the effect of deprvng the party of the votes OF
many independent Democrats with Republican
leanings. 1t would therefore in their opinion oe
GOOD party policy to nominate hrstclass oanddaes.
IL for no other purpose than to retain the Voes oI
these men. The Republican State Convention came
and presented TO the people an excellent hs1
of candidates and 1t was unpleasantly PLAIN that
the Republican party was thoroughly united
In support of the ticket Within two days, s,therefore
what was matter of choice has become matter
of necessity. The only chance that the Demo-
cratic party has of carrying the State rests in put
ting forward men superior to those nominated for
office by the Republican party
Mr. MAYNARD NAV or may not Gil the DILL as
amperior candidate to General Carr: but at least
the Tilden- n-CIeveland managers believe that ne
does. They intended at first to nominate
Speaker Chaplin for Secretary of State, but the
disclosure of his overfondness for the desk
and chair he used during the late session OF the
Assembly compelled them to drop him. John
Hampden Robb, of New-York, was next talked OF,
but be was unable to get the support OF Iammany
Hall, being. unlucdly for himself member OF the
County Democracy. 1t was then argued that 1t
would be imprudent to select any Democrat living
IN New-York as the candidate for Secretary oil
State. because it would DO instantly charged that
his or that faction had been favored. Nothing re-
NAMED but to go 10 the country for candidate.
Mr. MAYNARD was perhaps chosen upon the re-
,ommendation of Samuel J. Tilden. 1t Is reported
That Daniel Manning, the leader OF the lllden-
Cleveland Democrats. visited Mr. Tllden at Grey
rone on Wednesday and that Immediately upon
his return Mr.. Maynard was announced as a can
hdate Mr. Maynard was one of Mr.. IIldens most
trusted lieutenants during the latters campaign
or Governor III 1874. In 1876 be was elected an
kssemblyman from Delaware County. and sup
,orted with great energy Mr.. Tilden's reform"
policy. In 1877 be was elected County Judge OF
Delaware County, an Office which he has since held
While in the Assembly he was noted tor
his rigid ideas respecting temperance. Mr
auggles the superintendent Of Pubic lnstruc-
aon who was member of the Assembly
N 1876. said to-day: ave Democrats could de-
BEND upon Maynard's vote on all bills except those
.bout temperance; ho always voted with the Re-
,ubicans to restrict the sale of liquor"
Mr. MAYNARD Is tho possessor of a barrel he Is
Imam of large wealth. He was presented Tor
secretary of State last night by the Delaware
County Democrats at their Assembly Convention
Through some mysterious communication tue COIt-
land County Democrats became aware of TINS
,cton, and declared that they also would support
Mr.. Maynard. The two counties are so completely
ander the Tilden Cleveland control that politicians
perceive instantly whose strong support Mr. May

voluntarily become the leader of the opposition to
the State administration. and that his nomination
could not but be interpreted by politicians as re-
pudiation OF that administration by the Democrats
