NEW YORK DEMOCRATS
Re-Nominate Gov. Hill---SynOpsis of
Platform.

The New York democrat state conven-
ton was held in Buffalo on the 18th inst.
The second plank Of the platform adopted
halls with patriotic satisfaction the bold,
aggressive and statesmanlike message OF
President Cleveland upon the fisheries
question, vindicating the rights and pro-
claiming anew the dignity Of American cit
izenship." The passage of the Chinese bill
and revision Of the immigration laws is
demanded.
The fifth plank bears upon the liquor
question in the state. High license legisla-
tion of recent sessions is characterized and
denounced as variable, defective and hypo-
critical legislation ofrepublican legislatures
upon the liquor question, much Of which
was clearly inconsistent; not honestly de-
signed or calculated to aid the cause of
temperance but intended only to mislead
the people and for political effect"
Plank six at the outset favors purity Of
elections and at the close condemns the
electoral bill vetoed by Gov. Hill. The bill
Is condemned as having been "unconstitu-
tional, grossly defective, clearly impractical
BILE and otherwise Objectionable, and which
would therefore have failed 20 accomplish
the reforms desired
After the adoption of the platform, Dan
iel N Lockwood, who nominated Mr..
Cleveland, took the stage and made a
speech which closed with the denomination
of Gov. Hill, and moved that the nomina-
tion be made unanimous, which was done.
Lieut.. Gov Jones was renominated next
by reclamation, and John Clinton Gray
was named for Judge Of the court OF appeals.
