Vanderbilt who is attending tins convention as
z delegate from the XXIVth District, has had
interesting experience. Mr. Vanderbilt has at
tracted q great deal of attention. He was at
first surprised. then amused and finally irritated
by the interest taken in him. In the first place,
Mr.. Vanderbilt is quiet, reserved, digutied and
Unostentatious- He has mingled freely with the
delegates and Others and made many acquaint-
ances He has a cottage, and entertains in
quiet way He IS a good listener, and seldom IL
ever in the conversation that goes on around
him ventures an opinion. He says frankly that
politics is a new thing 10 him, and he is Just
learning few things. He has won many friends
by his quiet courtesy. unaffected cordiaIty and
attentive interest
Some. however. have presumed upon this
courtesy and even that he has tolerated in an
amused way. Several papers. however have
printed interviews with Mr.. Vanderbilt, putting
IN his mouth words he never said. and making
him out expressing various political views

cation Mr. Vanderbilt has not given any inter

going on around him and 70 ask perfectly natu-
raj questions. Despite all this, he has taken a
great interest in politics, and will probably
actively identity himself with the party in the
future.

employees were compelled TO work dangerously
long hours the Legislature has interfered and
established a maximum working day. New
Aork was the first State to regulate the ruin
ously long hours of labor and the unsanitary
condition OF work in bakeshops thereby con-
serving the health Of both producers and con-
sumers. Republican legislation also restricted
the hours Of work in brick yards and in the
!ast year extended the protection Of the law TO
clerks in drug stores.
The Republican party extended the protection
OF the factory laws TO women and children en-
pioyed in mercantile esta blishments. and in 1899
shortened the hours for all adult women en-
ployed in factories. The hours Of work for
women and children were limited and their en-
ployment in certain dangerous industries was
1orDldden. Laws compelling the use Of the most
modern safety appliances for the protection Of
employees on railroads have been passed and en-
forced. safeguards bout dangerous machinery

No small part Of the increased prosperity
which the farmers Of New-York have recently
enjoyed Is due 10 Republican laws, encouraging
agriculture and protecting the farmer against
The Legislature has encouraged by reasonable
appropriation the establishment Of the sugar
oeet Industry, with the result that thousands
OF acres are already devoted to the growth OF
the sugar beet, and hundreds of thousands Of
capital have been invested in plants for the
production Of beet sugar The State Fair has
been established on a sound basis, the excel
lence OF which has just been demonstrated in
meeting that received the patronage Of more
than one hundred and twenty-five thousand peo-
pie from all sections Of the State, and afforded
an exhibition Of the resources of this State that
IS unequalled. In continuance Of this policy the
Republican party has made liberal appropr1a-
tons for the fair societies of counties and
towns. The agricultural experiment station at
Geneva has been firmly established and its use
fulness extended until il ranks with the first
in the United States. The agricultural, for
estry and veterinary colleges, and the farmers
Institutes in all sections OF the State have been
assisted by the Government in accomplishment
OF work Of the highest utility TO agricultural

Improvement and maintenance Of the State
