STABILITY OF THE MOVEMENT.
Chairman Anderson was asked after the
| adjournment of the committee to-day what
he thought of the strength and sta
bility of the movement. Il am
convinced he replied, ''that it has
a great majority in the democracy of
this state behind ib. AS for the gentlemen
who are united with me in giving express
ion to the demand of the masses, Of the
party to representation at the convention
which is to nominate candidates for Presi-
dent and Vice President l can say that we
are in for fight to finish"
us it part of your plan to hold state
convention and elect delegates TO the
| democratic national convention to be held in
| Chicago June 2Ir Mr.. Anderson was
asked
| Yes a very distinct and well understood
part of the plan,p was the answer. I'VE
certainly will hold a state convention, iu
May probably, and the delegates we elect
and send to Chicago will be admitted. The
sentiment behind them will be found so
strong that it cannot be resisted.
Our delegates Will be admitted
as the proper represen tatives of the democ.
cracy Of New York. The men who will be
chosen by the mid winter convention at AL
beny will not repaesent the voice of the
democratic voters. By the time the Chicago
| convention meets the demand CT the people
will have asserted itself. the feeling of
dissatisfaction with the snap judgment
scheme is not confined to the state of New
York-it reaches far beyond our borders u
FAIRCHILD ON THE MOVEMENT.
Ex>Secretary Fairchild, speaking OF the
| popularity OF the movemenr, said: 1--WE
have only TO raise the standard, and the
masses of the party are ready to
show their sympathy. There is
nothing that genuine democrats SO
detest as unfairness in politics. Nine
out of every ten democratic voters find
themselves disfranchised by the scheme of
| Senator Hill to hold mIdwinter conven-
tion of his own and declare himself the
choice OF the democrats of New York for
President. They are ready to lift their
voices against such an effort to reverse the
real desire of the people, and Mr.. Hill will
find that they will give out no uncertain
sound"
