Neither Hill Nor Cleveland.

As was anticipated the New York Demo
cratic State Convention, held at Albany
on Monday, instructed the delegates to the
National convention, to be held at Chicago
ON June 21st, to support Hon. David b.
Hill for the nomination for President
The convention also declared for tariff re-
form and an honest dollar. There was
great unanimity and much enthusiasm
among the delegates.
This endorsement does not secure the
nomination of Senator Hill Able as he
is. and great as he is; Notwithstanding he
has led the Democratic hosts OF that state
TO victory seven consecutive times, has
carried the Legislature aud secured a
Democratic United States Senator, and been
the only leader in the state since the war
who has been able to solidify the party and
overthrow the Republican party there for
more thsu one or two years, he does not
seem to possess the confidence of the Demo-
Gratis outside of New York to an eminent
degree. There are some who would rather
be defeated under any other leader than be
successful under Hill And singular enough
these are the sort who are the greatest
champions of principles yet in practice
care more for individuals than principles
hero worshippers, men with a single choice,
with no notion that any but their favorlte
can be successful To them, Il convention
that does not act in accordance with their
preconceived notions. is machne-made and
boss dominated.
Such persons are not party men, and OF
course party nominations and policy could
not be shaped to suit their views Even
if matters were so shaped, there Is no GER
tainty they would support the ticket. But
there is a respectable element Of party
Democrats who are preludiced against SEN
ator Hill There is no evidence to support
it. but they believe Hill knitted Cleveland
in 1888. Hill was elected Governor that
year by safe majority and Cleveland lost
New York. This is the only evidence
against him. but these Democrats forget
thar Hill was always stronger in New York
than Cleveland. and ran ahead OF him in
the great tidal wave in 1888, when Cleve-
land was elected Governor and Hill Lieu
tenant Governor. This element would
support Hill if he were nominated, but
would not do 50 with hearty good will. In
the next contest the Democratic party must
present solid front. Candidates ought to
be selected who can unite all elements, and
there are Il number of able men in the
party who can do it. At present it would
appear that Senator Hill is not Of the num-
Der, and the action of the party in New
York. in declaring for Hill, would indicate
that Mr.. Cleveland is rot of the number
either Outside Of New York the senti-
ment of the party seems to be largely for
Cleveland, but in his own state the party
seems to prefer some other candidate, and
he could not command the party strength
there. 1t is doubtful if the Democrats can
win without New York, but to carry the
state it is not essential that the candidate
should come from that state, The party
is rich in material Russell, Flower, Patti
son, Palmer Boise, Carlisle, and last but
not least, Marylands senior Senator, Hon.
A. p. German.

Two vetoes by the Governor.

Gov Brown has vetoed two bills, One
was to enlarge the powers of the Glyndon
Permanent Building Association so as to
enable it to make loans on promissOry notes
and purchase evidences of debt. The reason
for the veto is that the powers conferred are
too broad. The bill gives the association the
right to take out bill brokers' license and
to shave notes. 1t confers powers which are
akin to banking powers, and it is question
able whether the people who originally went
into the association did not do so under the
impression that their money would be loaned
only on real estate.
The other was bill to incorporate the
Home for the Aged at Frederick. The third
section exempted the property from taxation.
The objection was that it was sought to do by
special act what is accomplished by the general
law, if the institution is to be.a charitable one.
The bill was re-introduced, With the third
section omitted

DON'T Sell The Western Maryland.

The Western Maryland Railroad ought
not to be sold at this time. If the Balti-
more Il Cumberland Railroad leases or
buys the Western Maryland it will not
build line of its own. If it does not
build the development that new road
would create all along the route from Cum
berland to Baltimore, through Allegany,
Washington, Frederick, Carroll and Balti-
more counties, would not take place. Fur
ther, the Pennsylvania road would not
build from Green Spring Valley via West
minister to Gettysburg, and the progress
and development on this route would not
occur. By the sale, competition would be
crushed, and millions of dollars that would
be added to the tax basis by the construction
of new railroads and the Improvement and
progress that would result, will not go up
on the assessment books.
