MR.. FLOWERS STURDY VIEWS.
Nr Flower said. on arriving here: I'VE in
tend To nominate a complete Presidential cleo
toral ticket against Bryan and Sewall in New
York State We started upon this work when
we nominated Robert Carl. of Herkmer ex-
Judge Of the Court of Appeals. and Oswald OF
tendorfer Editor of the 'Staats-Zeitung Of
New-York for electors -at-large. When we
meet In Brooklyn. on september ~. we shall
nominate the other thirty-four electors. l be-
lieye that the Democratic State Convention, TO
be held at Buffalo, on September lG Will in
dorse Bryan and Sewall and the platform upon
which they stand. In view of our convictions.
therefore. we can adopt no other course than to
nominate sound money electors In opposition
10 the Buffalo nominees.
What is your impression Of this indianapolis
Convention. so far as you have had chance TO
observe it?"
every favorable" responded Mr.. Flower, but
