Syracuse. oct 5-There is an interesting con-
trast between the Republican State Conven-
ton which will meet here tomorrow. and the

of the Democratic convention for State officers
will be- The leaders Of the Democratic party

lected their candidates. The 700 delegates To

conscious that IT is they who possess and are eX-
pected to exercise the power of nominating
the candidates Of their party for State Offices
Tomorrow also. they are aware. they VIII be
members OF "A parliament in which they can
say freely what they desire to say In the party :
interest and then they can vote for whom they
please for candidates.
This spirit Of freedom has been strongly
cxemplihed to-day and tonight among the dele
gates TO the convention. There has been
wide diversity of opinion among them as To the
merit and the availability Of the various candi-
dates for state Offices. There have been hali
a dozen candidates for each state Office The
struggle among the friends Of the candidates
has been amiably conducted: but it has been
animated. The Ncw-York delegation Is divided
between Edward r. Bartlett and John Sabine
Smith for Judge Of the Court of Appeals The
Albany delegation has united upon John
Palmer former Commander-in-chiet OF the
Grand Army Of the Republic for Secre-
tary Of State, and their action met
with such a favorable reception for

supreme Court also said they would make
tbcrn candidates II there should be a split In

from the intcri,r Of the State that before the
convsction u.eis tomorrow ihe Ncw-fork
delegates will unite upon some candidate for
Judge Of the Court Of Apeals. for 1t Is believed

force denounced the theft OF the election re-
turns of Duchess County by Judge Maynard
who Is to be the Democratic candidate ana
