He mods his head. and. oh. see
He ope's his mouth and talks and talks
Till all things swim before mel
He puffs and blows and motions makes

The Platform.

The following is tho full text of the
plaa form:
lr would be folly to ignore and impossi-
BILE to exaggerate tho gravity OF the condi-
tions under which this convention assem-
blos.
Most of the other states of the Union
have selected and commissioned their del
egatns to the national Democratic oonven-
fion
by movement evidently considered
bn. as we believe, III advised and III con-
Observation-Disclosures have been given to
the delegations OF a large number Of states
having for their aim and purpose the adop-
lion of new policy and a new platform
for the Democratic party.
No opportunity for a fair and deliberate
consideration of such policy and platform
has been afforded the Democracy of the
state OF New York Upon such new mat
ter thus proposed to be incorporated among
the tenets Of the party ID becomes the duty
Of the Democrats Of New York represent
ing their people TO speak in no equivocal
Terms.
Gold and sllyer-the money Of the con-
stf, 1tion and OF our fathers each at a
partly with the other In purchasing power
has been the platform Of principles pro
claimed by every national Democratic con-
Vention, which has thus adopted and re-
affirmed To each declaration OF party faith
for a century the wisdom Of Thomas JET
ferson. who said, ''rhe monetary unit
must stand on beth Eetals."

SARATOGA. juno 25.-Tho Democratic
state convention, in session here put itself
on record on the financial platform and
selected It's delegates TO the national con-
vcntion. but In doing these things Il has
followed out the predictions OF weeks and
has not created any sensation or even mild
surprise. IL declined to name its electors
and left the selection Of the state commit
tee until the next state convention, In the
fall.
These things have all been done at the
inA Nnco OF the leaders and with the ayow-
ed purpose of placing the party IN such q
position that no matter what the platform
Of the national party is it can be supported
by tho electors and the party In this stnte.
Delegates at large were chosen as fol
lows: David b. Hill, Roswell y. Flower

that he will retire, the entries to contest
the prize with Governor Bushnell will be
many. Gen. Chas. H. Grosvenor will be
one of them. Until the problem of Mark
Hanna mad the cabinet Is solved it Is use
less to guess what faction he will be with.
Yet should the present understanding that
he is to be one of President McKinley's
official household prove wrong he would al
mos: certainly be candidate to succeed
Sherman. Just now Mr.. Hanna is content
ing himself with vigorous and picturesque
Iefusals to be- drawn into the squabble that
Is going on. He declines any responsibility
for attacks en- Foraker and Bushnell, and
he also repudiates efforts to commit either
Major Mckinley or himself.
1t is the possibility Of the internal war
reaching dangerous proportions which rails
es the question whether the old condition
may not revert, and Ohio again be repre-
sented by Senators of opposite politics. The
cratic nature of the state in choosing
democratic Senators at alternate periods
and democratic governors at frequent in
tervals does not need to be recited in detail.
Everybody familiar with politics knows its
history. The failure of Ohio to give Major
Mckinley 4 plurality over Bryan proper
tionate to that of other states was a sub
ject OF comment when the election returns
were analysed. 1t was also a source of
personal modification to the major. Next
Year, when the governor and legislature
are chosen, the natural reaction from the
extreme tension of the presidential contest
will be Oh in full force. 1t was the witty
comment of a local republican leader that
If all the republicans in Ohio who expect
Office and don't get 1t stay away from the
polls the democrats have only to count
their majority. The habit of the man who
expects Office and doesn't get it is to stay
away from the polls when his wounds are
fresh. So it may he considered fair field
in Ohio next November for the democrats
in their fight for the governor and legisla-
tGre. John X. Mclean has perhaps just as
much right to begin fitting himself to a
senatorial toga as has Governor Bushnell
The gold standard democrats have been
cast out into darkness. and the democratic
party in Ohio hereafter Is the faction which
supported Bryan. 1t will control the con-
ventions and dictate the nominations.

portance when he captured Charles Lewis
for defrauding Mrs. Grupe, the proprietress
of a confectionery store at Ill Pennsyl-
vania avenue, out of small sum of money.
Lewis possesses several aliases and a police
record, and was only recently released from
the penitentiary. At the station Lewis gave
the name of williams, but he was recog-
nized by Detective Horne. His photograph
Is included in the collection Of photos Of

the opposition on the part Of residents and
property owners to such locations have de-
feated the object in view. The $4,000 ap-
propriated by Congress for the site has
now lapsed because of the failure to use IT,
and Congress will again have to take ac-
ton for this purpose. The Daisy Chain, Of
which Mrs. Archibald Hopkins is the pres-
dent, has raised $1,000 to be used to build
a hospital, but the money is lying idle be-
cause of the lack Of site on which to

1t is because of the objections to having a
