ALBANY, Sept. 2O.-There has been no indication from either Governor Flower or Senator Hill as to who tho probable candidate of the Democratic party will be for governor, although there was a signifl cant happening when the Hill Democracy of Albany, holding their primaries, in dorsed John B. Thatcher for tho nomina- ton. In Senator Hills ward, tho Ninth, tho sentiment and vote was very strong for Thatcher.
 The politicians hero who have looked over the situation have narrowed tho prob abilities down to these men: Senator Da- vid B. Hill. Albany; John Boyd Thatcher, Albany; Daniel Lockwood, Buffalo; Frcd- crick Cook, Rochester.
 There arc those who should know, how ever, who make up different list. Au- thority has bocn given for announcing the following list of candidates:
 John Boyd Thatcher, Albany; Judge Rufus Peckham, Frederick Cook, Roches- ter; Daniel L. Lockwood, Buffalo; Judge Robert Earl, Judge William Gaynor, Smith Weed, Plattsburg.
 Thatcher is an OK x-mayor of Albany and was n commissioner at tho Worlds fair He Is n close friend of David B. Hill but has always been identified with Cleveland movements.
 Judge Peckham was at one timc corpo- ration counsel of Albany. He is an ex- judge of tho supreme court and judgo of the court of appeals.
 Frederick Cook, tho Rochester brewer was secretary of state under the machine and Is very strong in many Republican districts.
 Robert Earl, a present judge of the court of appeals would lnSo but two months if elected, as his term expires June l, 1895.
 Judge William Gaynur of Brooklyn is ulG 4 fInN-a alnYN ss xfRL
 Daniel Lockwood was permanent chair man of tlss Democratic state convention last year and Is well known as having nominated Cleveland for governor of New York and also each time he ran for tho presidency.
 Hill m Emergency Candidate.
 Mir. Hill himself is only n candidate in case the party leaders determine that noth- ing but his candidacy can save the party from defeat With him out of the race, 1t is pretty sure that his support will Do thrown to John Boyd Thatcher. for in ev- cry ward of Albany resolutions of regret at tho retirement of Governor Flower were adopted and the delegations instruct ed to vote for Mir. Thatcher at the conven- tion- This delegation, however, will not have seats on the floor of the convention except perhaSs in one district.
 Frederick Cook of Rochester ex-secre- tary of state, receives some mention. His popularity in western New York is quot cd, and the fact that the Republican con- vention failed to recognize the demands of that county Is also brought forward. It is said, however. that Mir. Cook Is sIat- cd for lieutenant governor, so as to strengthen the ticket
 Daniel Lockwood of Erie, who has onco said that he will not allow his name to be used. is being talked of again, and it is said that an attempt will be made to get him to withdraw his refusal, and it is urged that Buffalo should be represented on the ticket.
 A veteran, General Sicklcs of Now York Is one of the new possibilities.

TIME was when the democrats of Water bury-the rank and file-took no interest in the party primaries. leaving that i'm portant matter in the hands of the politi- cians That day is gone. let us hope for ever In recent years the primaries have awakened as much interest almost as the regular election. This is a good sign. It shows that the people are interested and insures the nomination of good men. The primary election to be held tomorrow promises to be the most exciting ever held here. The different ward factions are straining every nerve. It will be fair the vanquished will gracefully accept the result.

THE name of the republican nominee for governor is suggestive. It sounds like a loser. That Senator Coffin was chosen as standard bearer was not much of a surprise to those on the inside, but Gen. eral Merwin must feel chagrined at being unceremoniously "turned down." He ex- pected the nomination and might have re- ceived it, but for treachery in his own camp. The bitterness engendered will cost Senator Coffin many votes. The plat form is, in brief, dishonest charge that the democrats are responsible for the financial depression of the past year and an endorsement of the rotten borough sys- tenn, under which the town of Union, with 800 inhabitants, is entitled to as many representatives in the general assembly as New Haven or Waterbury.
