NEW HAMPSHIRE DEMOCRATS.
The Administration Denounced and
the Chicago Platform Endorsed.

CONCORD, n. H., May 1.-The Demo-
cratic State and District Conventions fer
the election of delegates to the National
Convention at Kansas City were held here
today In the main the proceedings were
harmonious, although there were two warm
contests in choosing delegates. S. B. Page
was elected delegate at-large-
An active contest arose in the choice
of delegates from the Second district
Mayor N f. Martin. of this city. was de-
feated by William A. Ahern also of this
city. The latter came into the fight yes
terday representing the dissatisfaction of
the central Democracy by reason Of the
fact that Mayor Martin has strcnuously
enforced the temperance laws The action
taken means that Mayor Martins Tenomna-
ton will be vigorously opposed next fall
by members of his party who believe in
license law.
The platform adopted unanimously by
the State Convention, which was presided
over by Hon. H. H. Metcalf of this city,
denounces the Republican party for its
abandonment of bimetallsm, declares
against trusts. condemns any and all al
liances with Great Britain favors the cleo
ton of United States Senators by direct
vote of the people, and contains the fol-
lowing additional planks:
I'VE, the Democrats of New Hampshire,
in convention assembled, unqualifiedly and
uureseTyedly endorse the Chicago platform
of 1896, in whole and in detail. and declare
our unwaverng fidelity and adherence to
the same. We denounce the Republican
party for inAicting upon the nation. under
false pretences a policy Of colonial con-
quest. with its attendant evils Of imperial
ism and militarism at a sacrifice OF the
basic principles of the Declaration of hide
pendenee, and in defiance of the Federal
Constitution.
We believe in free trade and every
other constitutional guaranty for Porto
Rico and independence for Cuba and the
Philippine Islands as soon as they are
capable of self government. We denounce
the Administration for fastening upon the
American Republic the guilt Of criminal
aggression in the Philippines and neglect
Of plain duty to Porto Rico by depriving
her citizens Of the right of self government
by erecting a customs tariff between that
island and the States. in utter disregard OF
distinct pledges solemnly given and OF
their constitutional rights"
The delegates elected today follow: T L.
Norris, Portsmouth; Henry o. Kent Ian
caster; S. B. Page Woodsville; Jeremiah
Doyle, Nashua: DR.. John A. Dowd. Man

Less than thirty of the 24O delegates
were negroes. In previous years the
negroes have greatly outnumbered the
whites. The effort TO keep the re-
grOes in the background has created
trouble. At the Congressional convention
Of this district the negroes bolted because
the Lily Whites" who were in the ma
jority. declined to nominate one colored
man as a delegate to the Republican Ma
tional Convention.
There was no opposition whatever to the
denomination Of President Mckinley The
mention of the Presidents name by Chair
man Holton in addressing the convention
was responsible for wild enthusiasm.

BoURKE CoCKRAN's NEW MOVE.
May Declare for IA Repeal of the Fiji
teenth Amendment.

NEW YORK, May 2.-W Bourke Cock
ran. who is now at his country home at
Port Washington, L. l., will start on Sun
day or Monday next for Montgomery. Ala,
where he is to address the Southern So
ciety for the Promotion of the Study of
Race Conditions and Problems in the
South" This will be the first annual con-
ference OF the society, and it will je in SEES
sion three days. May s. g. and 10. Mr..
Cochran is booked to make the closing ad-
dress on the afternoon of the 10th.
Il has been reported for the past few
days among prominent members of the
Southern colony here in New York that
Mr. Cochran. in his speech, would take
very radical ground on the negro question
in the South.
Il am informed" said a gentleman who
has been conspicuous in the group of
Southerners that of late years have achiey-
ed success in the North that Mr. Cock
ran is going to come out with a strong,
Iat-footed declaration in favor of the re-
peal of the fifteenth amendment. If he
does this it will cause an explosion. The
race question in the South has got to the
point where a crisis of some kind is near
at hand And if Mr.. Cochran takes the
position ! am informed he is going to take,
and advocates the withdrawal of the fran
chise from the Southern blacks. it will
have a tendency to precipitate matters"
Mr.. Cochran when spoken to on the
subject by a reporter today, said that the
statement that he was going to urge the
repeal of the fifteenth amendment was pre-
mature.

MR.. GoRMAN's VIEWS.
He Does Not Believe Dewey Can BE
Nominated. a

NEW YORK, May Former Senator
Arthur Pue German OF Maryland was at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel today. Many news
paper men attempted to get from Mr.. Cor
man his personal views on the Democratic
national situation. Mr.. German declined
to say a word of any moment to his WISH
tors. OF course quite a number Of men IN
public life talked with Mr.. German. To
these Democratic visitors Mr.. German
said that he believed that Admiral Dewey
was a fine sailor and an excellent gentle
man. but he did not see how Dewey could
be nominated for President for the reason
that Mckinley was already sure OF a re-
nomination at the hands of the Republican
party and that Bryan would surely be Ie-
nominated by the Democratic party.
The Democrats who called on Mr. Cor
man learned from him that Mr.. Bryan was
practically to make his own platform in
Kansas City and that Mr. German would
not attend the Democratic National Con-
vention. Mr. German did not attend the
Democratic National Convention in 1896.
While Chairman James X. Jones' of the
Democratic Committee, and Mr.. German
are warm personal friends. 1t has been
known that Mr. Jones has never been pow
erful enough with Mr. Bryan to induce Mr.
Bryan TO make Mr.. German a member of
the executive committee of the Democratic
National Committee. Mr. Jones, in 1896,
greatly desired the counsel Of Mr. German
but Mr.. Bryan overruled Mr.. Jones sug-
gestion. Something has been said within
the last few days about former President
Clevelands friends bringing him forward
as a Democratic candidate for President at
Kansas City, if for no other purpose than
to defeat the nomination of Mr. Bryan
Senator Germans friends said tonight
that he did not suspect any sincerity in the
alleged movement to bring Mr.. Cleveland
again to the front Former Secretary
Daniel S. Lamont has said to his personal
friends within the last few days that be
knew nothing Of any movement to bring
Mr. Cleveland into prominence again.

braska Republican Convention

LINCOLN. Neb.. May 2.-Senator John
NJ. Thurston was successful today in the
Republican State Convention in securing
an election as delegate-at large to the
National Convention. He succeeded Only
after bitter fight and without the aid of
single vote from his home county. His
selection was brought about by a general
desire to secure harmony and the failure
of his avowed enemies TO centre soon
enough en- some opponent. He Won by a
vote of COS to 500 The other delegates-
at-large elected are Edward Rosewater,
of Douglas; ]. H. McClay. Of Lancaster.
and John a. Ehrhardt, of Stanton.

of Adams, had no opposition.
The other nominees are: Lieutenant
Governor E. P. Savage; Secretary of State
G. W. Marsh; Auditor c. II. Weston;
Attorney General. F. N Pro0t Land Com
missioner, G. W. Follmer; State Superin-
tendent. W. H. Fowler; Treasurer, Will
liam Suffer
The platform commends the administra-
ton Of Mckinley and its tariff and fnan
cial legislation. 1t declares that the Re
publiCans do not favor imperialism or mill
tsrsm but are willing to accept the legiti-
mate results Of honorable warfare. It de-
clares against a standing army in times Of
peace. 1t pledges the party to the
strengthening of national defences, en-
largement OF markets, ana expansion Of
commerce.
1t states the unequivocal opposition Of
the party to trusts and combinations hav-
ing for their purpose sitting of competi-
ton or arbitrary control OF products or
the fixing of prices, while recognizing the
benefits of legitimate business fairly capt
talized and honestly managed.
A constitutional amendment giving Con-
gress the power to regulate trusts is ia
vored.
