Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Coler had talks with the Dem

ported had succeeded in harmonizng the dl1-
ferences of the Democratic factions there. MI
Coers presence with Mr.. Hill here adds to the
evidence that the latter favors the formers nom
nation for Governor by the Democratic State
Convention.
Mr.. Coler clearly desires the Democratic
nomination for Governor" said a prominent
Democrat after his departure. but 1t Is not
quite so clear that Mr. Hill has resolved to use
his influence to nominate Mr.. Coler. My own
Judgment is that Mr.. Hill has not yet selected
the man he will favor for Governor"
Nevertheless. there was a considerable demon
stration for Mr.. Coler made here. delegation
of Medina Democrats attending the picnic wore
badges inscribed Bird S. Coier Club" 1t was
said to be the first Coler club organized in the
State Some of the members of the delegation

Besides the speech he made here Mr.. Coler VIII
soon make another at Coeymans. Albany Couh-
ty Now Albany County happens to be the
home of David B. Hill. and Mr.. Coler's invita-

various speeches of Mr.. Coer excite the sus-
picion that he Is being introduced as the Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor. 1t stated
here to-day however that Mr. Hills sole de-
cison thus far in regard to the Democratic
State ticket was to favor the denomination OF
Judge Gray of the Court of Appeals.
Orleans County gives a large Republican ma
1ority, and the Republican leaders cannot nave
any fear that Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Coler made any
converts to the Democratic party here to-day.
