THE SYRACUSE CONVENTION.

The sentiment which eliminates in
the holding of the convention has al
ready overthrown the influence in Dem

protest. David B. Hill is no longer a

At Syracuse today the Cleveland
Democrats are evidently precipitating a
party division as pronounced as that of

It's generally conceded that New York
is necessary to Democratic victory. But
it is not admitted that Democratic vic

These are the facts which must be urged
at Chicago. These are the facts which
must be taken into consideration by

Some of the delegates to the conven-
ton, not few but good many, were
not backward in stating about the hotel
lobbes that they would not vote for
David b. Hill if he were nominated at
Chicago. It's this sort of talk which
makes the present situation most un-
fortunate one. They should remember
that victory for the party is of more
Importance than the triumph of any

However, the Syracuse assembly has
given valuable expression on one point
what it would do in case the Chicago
convention should nominate the choice
of the Democratic party of New York.
Chairman Herman i'll his speech said:

will accept the decision of that tribunal
as final, and will stand with their
