Democrats In this city and q delegate from
this State to the last Democratic national
convention, to-day announced that he
would vote against william r. Hearst. He
also iasOed the following statement:
Having, as I believe, a knowledge Of the
interests and conditions that have made tho
nomination for Governor OF William r.
Hearst by the Buffalo convention possible.
I believe that Il IL my duty to the Demo-
cratic party. az well az to the honest citizens
Of the State, TO vote against his election,
believing that course to be absolutely
necessary in order to rebuke the self-seek-
ing hypocrisy Of a few men that have taken
advantage Of the criminal apathy Of the
Democrats OF the State
Mr.. Alderman was one OF a dozen prom
inent Democrats Of this city who won't to
Buffalo and opposed the nomination OF
Hearst. 1t is believed that a large number
Of other prominent Democrats here will
follow the lead taken by Mr.. Alderman.
ROCHESTER,, Sept. 27.-Both Of Rochester's
Democratic newspapers, the Herald and the
UniOn and Advertiser, have repudiated the
Democratic ticket as nominated in Buffalo,
leaving Hearst without a party organ In
the city.
The Herald announced editorIally that 10
will be independent henceforth on national,
State and municipal issues and that IL
will support such men az Charles +. Hughes
In whatever party they may be found.
This afternoons Union and Advertiser
does not declare. itself independent, but
says:
1T Owes no allegiance TO the candidate
Of the Democratic convention at Buffaio.
for the reason that he is not a Democrat
but q disturber, a renegade, a quasi-Social-
ist and a disgrace to the convention that
nominated him and the principles in which
the Union believes. The Democratic party
has been sold by it's organization, but we
decline to be delivered with the goods
Rochester leaders OF the old time De-
mocracy will bolt the State ticket as nomi-
mated i'm Buffalo. Henry Selden Bacon,
former candidate for Congress; State Conn
mitteeman w. r. Balkan, President w. c.
Barry Of the Security Trust Company and
many others prominent in the party councils
have hoisted the Hughes colors and viii do
all in their power to down Hearst
RxvoLr IN RocKLAND COUNTY.
MACK, Sept. 77.-Prominent Democrats
in every part Of Rockland county are 10
revolt against the nomination Of william
r. Hearst for Governor, and while many
Of them object to being publicly quoted
they say that from now on they will uss
all their influence for the election Of Charles
E. Hughes.
we do this as Democrats they say,
because the proceedings Of the Buffalo
convention were not Democratic, and We
will throw aside our politics and do what
we can to rebuke the crowd that tried to
make us swallow Hearst"
DIR. George A.. Leitner, one of the most
prominent Democratic leaders in lower
Rockland county, was outspoken in his
denunciation Of he work Of the Buffalo
convention.
The nomination OF Heart is one Of the
most outrageous and disgraceful things
ever perpetrated In this State" said the
doctor. Last evening l was With q COM
pany Of eight. and six well known Demo
Gratis in the company said they would work
for Hughes"
A prominent Democrat who has held
O legislative Office in the State and who has
always kept within his party lines said
to-day that he would vote for Hughes,
tiIe first time in his life that he has cast
his vote for any Republican for a State
Office. A vel known hotel proprietor and
an influential leader in Democratic politics
here lays he will vote thisy year for a Re2ub-
lican FOR Govern ar the first time in his
life.
This is the sentiment one hears on every
hand.
At the recent convention of Rockland
county Democrats to elect delegates to the
State convention a strong anti-Hearst
delegation was chosen, the convention
even departing from its usual rule and
selecting the altsrnates 80 they would he
men whom Hearst could not capture. Those
delegates voted solidly for Sulzer at the
Buffalo convention, but as they have not
yet returned their views canno he obtained
at this time.

back with them any really large bundles Of
enthusiasm. One Of the anti-Hearst dele
gates from the second Oneida district. who
had been unseated by the committee on
contested seats, expressed the general senti-
ment In the following language;
Hearst will be the worst beaten mar
who ever ran for Governor. Mark that.
He had the convention packed with a lot
Of bruisers and fighters and some OF the
boys got the change all right. II was tough
OR the decent Democrats Of the State. but
the other boys had the swing Of the con-
ventiOn and election day will tell whether
such things pay in the Democratic party"
The feeling among the old line leaders Of
the party In Oneida Is strongly against the
action of the Buffalo convention In nomi-
mating Hearst, and they openly proclaim
their determination 10 vote the Republican
State ticket.

candidacy OF District Attorney jerome
