was three years ago, and though he may
and probably will be able to control the
state convention and capture the dele
gates to the national Democratic conven-
ton it will be clear to everybody that his
success in this respect will be due to
trickery and skilful use of the party
machinery; and that the action Of that
convention will not be fair and impair
tial expression Of the opinions of the
Democratic party of New York. Indeed
his success at the state convention is
likely to only more deeply impress up on
the country the fact that he is simply an
adroit and INSCRIPTIONS politician,
thoroughly selfish, caring nothing for
the party except as means Of further
ing his own political aspiration. This is
the character he is likely to appear in
before the Democratic convention, and
in this character he cannot be nominal
ed unless the party has sunk lower than
has generally been supposed.
The Portland daily press., 1892-02-11

The Democratic party enjoys great
and deserved reputation for foolishness,
but it is hardly conceivable that it can be
guilty of the supreme folly of nominal
ing David Bennett Hill for the Presi-
dency. Granted that the great majority
of the Democratic party would vote for
him, as they would vote for almost any
body who got the regular nomination, it
must be apparent from the demonstra-
tion now making in New York against
his snap convention that there would be
in every state in the Union certain
number of the respectable element of
the party who could not be whipped in
and who would either stay away from
the polls or vote the opposition ticket.
The number of these people would be,
too, sufficient to defeat his election, even
if the Republican nominee should not be
particularly strong with the voters Of
that party. Even in New York Hills
strength is more apparent than real. His
career in the executive chair though it
enabled him by means of skilful hand
ling of the patronage and the unscrupu-
lous use of power to get the machinery
of his party largely into his own hands
has not helped him with the masses of
his party. He is less popular than he
