storm.
When the recess expired, and after
some confusion, Mr. Dewitt came down
from the sccretary's desk IN order To get
away from the downpour of rain falling
upon the desk of the Chairman, aud latter
a few minutes waiting for the storm 10
quiet he discharged the duty assigned
TO him and placed Hill IN domination IN
a speech OK 300 words
Mr. Dewitt said in part
Mr.. President and tellow-Dcie-
gates. BY the favor of my colleagues
/ have now the honor to speak the voice
OF the state Of New York IN this council
of the Democracy Of the nation. Her
electoral vote IS the keystone
Of the Federal arch, upon which
alone we can rest the citadel OF our
hopes. She realizes in her pre- emit re-
latlons with the Democratic party OF the
nation what was said OF the Roman
amphitheatrc While stands the Coli
scum Rome shall stand when falls the
Coliseum Rome shall fall. aud when
Rome falls the world.

there is no Democrat who will shlrk the
dntv OF making every effort to secure
the success Of the candidate Of TINS con-
vention. Notwithstanding his judgment
NAV differ from that OF the majority.
The Democracy OF New York and lis
great leaders, whose efforts OF splendid
generalship have given to us a Demo
cratic Senator and Governor, will always
be true to the great party they repre-
sent they will not wager, nor VIII they
rest in the coming canvass unul
they have achieved success. Their grand
victories Of the past, their natural and
honorable ambition, their unqucstloned
Democracy will make them arise and
fight as never before and with those
that they represent and lead they will
march in the great independent vote,
and will again secure for us Democratic
victory in New York. The grand Demo
Gratis under whose leadership the city and
State Of New York are now governed
will give to the cause the grea. weight OF
their organizations
"The laundering echoes of this con-
venton announcing the nomination OF
Grover Cleveland will not have died
out over the hills and through the valleys
OF this land before You Will hear and
see all our leaders rallying to the sup
port of orr candidate. They will begin
Their efforts for organization and success
and continue their work until victory
crowns their energies. All Democrats
will fight for victory, and they will sue
coed, because the principles OF the party
enunciated here are for the best interests
of the country at large, and because the
people Of this land have unquestionable
faith that Grover Cleveland will give
the country a pure, honest, and stable
government, and an administration
under which tie great business interests
of the country and the agricultural and
laboring interests OF the masses Will re-
ceive proper and due consideration.
WHY THE DEMAND FOR CLEVELAND?

is it that the masses OF the party demand

command, should have stirred the
spontaneous support OF the great body
OF the Democracy? Why is it that with
all that has been urged against him the
people still cry Give us Cleveland !?
Why is it that though he has pro-
nounced in honest, clear, and able Ian
guage his views upon questions upon
which some of his party may differ with
him he is still near and dear to the
masses
alt is because he has crys'alized into
living issue the great principle upon
which this battle is to be fought out. III
he did not create tariff reform he made
it presidential issue. He vitalized and
presented it to our party as an issue for
which We could fight, and continue to

ADMISSION OF TERRITORIES AND HOME
RULE.
"Section i. We approve the action
Of the present House OF Representatives
in passing bills for the admission into
the Union as States OF the Territories OF
New Mexico and Arizona and we favor
the early admission of all the Territories
having the necessary population and re-.
sources TO admit them 10 statehood and
while they remain Territories We hold
that the officials appointed to administer
the government of any Territory, to-
gether with the Districts OF Columbia
and Alaska, should be iona .fde resi-
dents of the territory or District IN
which their duties are to be performed.
The Democratic party believes IN home
rule and the control of their own affairs
by the people OF the vicinage.
Section -. We favor legislation by
Congress and State Legislatures to pro-
tect the lives and limbs OF railway en-
ployees and those of other hazardous
