There Is no tho ticket who does not represent
the bosses, nor one who may not be expected to do
Just what the great boss Leon Abbott, will Command

| Hudson, who has got into singular company Tho
convention took particular trouble to snub Senator
Rufus r. Blodgett, and 1t done in an unusually

as action tell anything, that no has no abiding
place in the Democratic party. His name was Kissed
and jecred, and those who the unwisdom OF NOR

and those were among the other pans Of tho platform
adopted:

OF those resolutions according to their letter ana
spirit and more especially wherein demanded
reduction redundant Of the Government
and the revision OF the tariff with due regard tC the IN
terests of the agricultural manufacturing industries
and Of labor and capital to be affected thereby
Then follows a plank with alleged results OF Ceve-
lands Administration and ending follows: For
these reasons wo recognize tho wisdom OF his ro-
nomination.
Governor Green's Administration Is approved and
the Republican Legislature denounced also the employ
ment OF Pinkerton men By corporations.
The plank urging President Clcvelands denomination
