nounced by that convention and the state con- vention of 1887 are hereby again declared, with an explicit approval of the doctrines re- affirmed in the last annual message of the president to congress. Great applause.)
 s"That unnecessary taxation is unjust taxa tion. and that taxation for the mere purpose of unfairly benesiting the few at the expense of the many is a perversion of national power. (Applause)
 s.That the correction of the evils resulting from such system will best serve the health full conditions of American industry and en- terprise, and promote the public welfare
 ssThat the large surplus in the national treasury. drawn from the various channels of trade. is a dangerous abuse, and in reducing taxation the interests of American labor should be carefully regarded. (Applause)
 eThe Democracy of the state is justly nrond of the fact that one of its members was selected to carry to a successful issue in the last national campaign the contest for the supremacy of the principles of popular gov ernment, and for the defeat and destruction of the false theories and corrupt practices which threatened the happiness and welfare of the American people. His wise adminis- tration has exhibited under all circumstances tha value and bene1cent results of faithful discharge of public duty. (Applause.)

pointed for reassembling, but they poured in very rapidly between z and S. The gal leries, too, were well filled. Among those who took seats in the hall were District At torney Fellows and ex-Senator Raines, of Monroe. The proscenium boxes were filled with ladies.
 The committee oa1 contested seats decided unanimously in favor of the sitting delegates from the Second district of Queens county, and Orson w. Sheldon was victorious in the Washington county contest.
 The galleries becoming inpatient at the tardiness of the committees, began calling for speech in succession from District Attor- ney Fellows, Bourke Cochran. Daniel Dough. erty and Thomas F. Grady, all four of whom had been invited to seats on the stage
 After repeated calls for speeches from those on the stage, one of the occupants of the gal. lery called out for Mayor Hewitt. This was the signal for a storm of misses, which were soon drowned in applase. The name of Gov ernor David B. Hill was applauded vigor. ously. At just 3 o'clock Chairman Coudert called the convention to order.

BLAINE DELEGATES.


Probable Action of the Republican Con-
 vention at Buffalo.
 BUFFALO, May 16.-The corridors of the Genesee and Tifft houses beam with delegates to the Republican state convention, which meets to-day. "Blaine or Depew' is the only variation of the chorus "Depew or Blaine" to be heard It is looked upon as @ Blaine con- vention by his admirers, and as a Depew convention by his. No other name is consid- cred
 Senator Hiscock and ex-Senator Miller ar rived early last evening and were warmly greeted. Much disappointment was felt over the ruceipt of telegram from New York an- noun,ing that MT. Depew is not coming. His absence is construed as meaning that, despite all disavowals, he will be in the field as presidential candidate. The sincerity of MT. Rlaine,s Florence letter is nowhere Ques- tioned. but the Blaine men declare that he will yield to general party call for his nom- ination.
 The state committee, at it's meeting last n;oht decided to recommend Charles E. Fitch' editor of The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, as temporary chairman. The temporary organization is likely to be made permanent. ..>

THE TARIFF DEBATE.

Congressman Butterworth Speaks Against
 the Mills Bill.
 WASHINGTON, May 16.-In the house yes terday, Congressman Ben Butterworth spoke in opposition to the Mills bill.
 He said that the pending bill dwarfed all other measures now before the house. The issue joined between the majority and minority was not whether the tariff needed revision not; not whether the rate of duty on this or that article was too high; whether lower rate of duty on any special schedule would yield sufficient revenue and sufficient protection to American industry; but the line on which they divided was on the economical principle itself.
 The two parties divided, not as to the WIS., dom of revising the tariff, but as to whether that revision should be conducted so as to destroy the system itself. The passage of the Mills bill would be direct condemnation of the protective policy. It indicated to the country that whether the tariff was perfect or not the Democratic party was not fit in- strument to perfect it.
 Mir. Butterworth said that the same condi- tious existed now as existed in 17S9. We no longer needed capital or plants, and in skill and cunning the Anerican workingman asked no odds Capital and skill were here, but starvation wagss were not here, and never would be so Iong as the Republican
 
 he said, was the parent of the influences that multiplied industries. and the history of the country's development would show that the protective tariff was indispensab @ to the cul- tivation of the genius which diversified indus tries
 In making a comparison between the sec tions where protection prevailed and the states where the free trade philosophy ex- s.ei, he called Ohio to the front It paid in wages S6,OO0,0 900 more than the southern | states Yet these states had population of i5.. so0,0oo, while Ohio had little over a.,s0, coo Whose fault was it that these .;a;cs were not manufacturing statesi Nature had been prodigal in her gifts to the south. Cl,yd had blessed that section beyond com are, but it had not consented to bless itself 1t was tle fault of the south, or rather it was slc fault of the faith whose works 90 conclu- siycly condemned it.
 He was followed by Mir. BuckAlew, of | Pennsylvania; Mir. Henderson, of Illinois; iIr Stone, of Kentucky, and MT. Grant, of Vermont
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-05-16
"During his incumbency our system of gov

During his 1ncumbency OUT system Of gov anInent has been restored to the honest sim plicity impressed upon it by its founders; in ecgrity and ability have been substituted for artifice and incapacity in public places; the civil service has been purified, elevated and improved; economies have been inaugurated, useless offices have been abolished, and busi- ness methods have been introduced in the management of government affairs; millions of acres of the public domain have been wrested from the grasp of foreign and domes- tic speculators and restored to settlers seeking homes; the waste and corrupt misuse of funds appropriated for the rebuilding of the navy have been exposed and corrected, and the scandals arising therefrom no longer offend the moral sense of the people; thousands of the names of deserving Union veterans have been added to tine pension rolls; the right of every citizen has been maintained at homo and abroad; sectional hate has been dis couraged, and friendly relations among all OUT people have been promoted.
 In the light of such achievements, in recognition of faithful public service, to the end that reforms already inaugurated may be fully completed, and in strict obedience to She mandate of the Democratic and independ- ent voters of the state, the delegates selected by this convention are instructed to present to the national Democratic convention the name of Grover Cleveland as their candidate for president of the United States. Great applause, long continued.)
 And said delegates are further instructed to act as unit in all matters entrusted to their charge, said action to be determined by the vote of a maj jority of said delegates"
 The name of Delegate e1-Mayor Grace was greeted with demonstration in which misses and cheers were about equally mingled. The names ot Col. Fellows and several others were cheered for their hospitality. The loud demands which had from time to time been made for Daniel Dougherty were now grati- fled, and that gentleman was vociferously applauded as he took the platform. He de- ivered a remarkably eloquent eulogy on the Democratic party and its great leader, Grover Cleveland, and congratulated the party upon its now perfect assurance of victory. .....
 Hon. w. Bourke Cochran also responded to cries for him to speak He was very brief, and merely congratulated the conven- tion upon its good work. In concluding his remarks he said the most fitting close he could suggest to such a glorious day was to move to adjourn. This was evidently against the wishes of the convention, as cries for Col Fellows, ex-Senator Grady and other favorite orators burst forth, but the chair man declared the motion carried and the convention adjourned sine die
 NEW YORK, May l6.-The Democratic state committee met ct the Hoffman house last night, and by vote of IT to Il elected Edward Murphy, of Troy, as temporary chairman. D. Cady Herricks name had been previously proposed, but was rejected, the vote of the committee being a tie, which was broken by Charles Dufrese, the clerk voting against Herrick.
