York the Chicago Platform Goes.

York the Chicago Platform Goes.
Syracuse, N. z, Aug. 13.-The sub
committee Of the Loyal Democratic
League last evening adopted an address
to the Democratic state committee Of
New York. It tells the committee that
the people who selected its members
demonstrated by their votes last fall
their loyalty to the platform adopted
by the Democratic party in national
convention at Chicago, and to the can
didates nominated thereon. The address
declares that If the Democratic voters
Of the state could speak at this time
there would be no question that the
Chicago platform would be reaffirmed
and a candidate nominated for chief
Judge Of the court of appeals who ac-
lively and openly supported the par
tvs candidates and platform last fall.
If no state convention shall be called
this fall the demand is made that the
state committee issue an unequivocal
reaff1rmation Of the platform Of the
Buffalo convention and also Of the Chi
cago platform, and nominate a can
didate who is in full accord with both
platforms.

prevented a Populist organization in
South Carolina. He said he had done
McLaurin an injustice and would with
draw from the race.
McLaurin shook his hand and thanked
him amid great applause. Governor
Evans said McLaurin had invited him
to go into the Populist party with him,
and this led to a heated discussion.
McLaurin spoke with much vehemence
that he tainted on concluding. He was
taken to his hotel and the doctors in
sist on his resting for q few days. Gov
ernor Evans and Senator McLaurin
showed much feeling toward each other.
