ALL THE LEADERS AGREE THAT THE coNvEN-
TONS WORK WAS WELL DONE.
Rochester, ". Y, Sept. (SpecaD.-The most salts
factory feature about the situation tonight since
the announcement Of Mr.. Fassetts nomination is the
emphatic way in which it is Endorsed by all elements of
the party particularly by those who from what has
happened in the past might be supposed TO be somewhat
Iukewarm toward the ticket. Congressman James J..
Beden for example, is fair illustration of this re
mark. He was known to be opposed to Mr. Fassett's
nomination and said last night with a good deal of
emphasis-nOt that he did not like Fasset but because
he favored White or Wadswerth Mr.. Belden was seen
lust after the result Of the balloting had been an
nounced and blIfnty asked what he thought OF the
Conventions work and what were his feelings toward
the head Of the ticket
"Pm glad you, have asked that question:" said he
promptly. "Im glad of an opportunity TO say right
here mt once before anything has been done that Pm Tor
Fassett heart and soul like him personally and have
ALWAYS liked him. and Pm going to do everything in
nv power TO elect him. You can't put this too strong.
The past has passcd far regards the contentious
we NAV have had. We are all now for the ticket and
we are going to elect 1t. have no grievance against
either Mr. Fassett or Mr. Plat. Patt I've known for
forty years. and he broke his word to me once In
all our acquaintance No, sir, there is not vestige
of antpathy in toward our gallant young leader.
OF this you may rest assured"
Mr. Belden's remarks were commented on with much
Measure by an who heard them, and more than one OF
his acquaintance said "Thats Belden through and
through He'll do his part, you may be sure Mr.
Bedens attitude Is that Of all OF Mr. Mlers fnends
who could be found this evening. EX-Congressman

behalf made speech after speech, as occasion oHered IN

politics. Eplt that makes difference In TINS case
Mr. Fasset lis also Of my friends. one OF my best
friends tool My relations with Mr.. Platt have conse
oueutv nothing to do with it, do not regard Fassett
as being particularly Patt's choice on the contrary,
consider that Plat would really prefer to nave some
body else Irt up But the convention took tho bit In
its teeth and united on Fassett Pm for MIN, and we
are going,tO elect him as fate -Fasset Is no
ndebound partisan but broad gauge fellow, and we
all like him.

astc ovori the nomination. declaring that it was emf
nently satisfactory to him and TO all his and Mr.
Miller's friends. ExCOntroller WadswoIth spoke in
the highest terms of Fasset and predicted his election
by safe majority.
In ifacS II is almost impossible to find any to-
night who is not ready and willing to say that the
convention has given the party splendid ticket. The
Buffalo people are st somewhat disgruntled over their
failure 10 nominate their favOritc, Mr.. Becker and
some Of them take dociu view of the future; but
the best men assert that Eric County people say every
thing VIII come out right in due time, though some
good mi ssonary work will have 10 be performed, and
this win be done by Mr.. Fassett. Among the
sentative men here is Health officer smith,
of NeT-York. He is considered one Of the
shrewdcst politicians in the state, and his
Judgment is almost invariably sound. "What do /
think Of Fasset's nomination. he repeated. "Wen,
it is certainly bold stroke, hold stroke indeed but
of these that takes with the people 1t is going
TO arouse great enthusiasm, and, though it will take
hard fighting Fassett can and will win, Think
1t is hardly necessary to say that the NewYorI
County leaders are delighted "FaSsett's nomination.

NcwYOgk man here IN Fassett5 interest, "means his
