WHITE NAMED FOR SECOND PLACE
Congressman Michael E. Driscoil. OF Onondaga,
was the only delegate TO respond to Chairman
Roots request for the presentation OF candidates
for the nomination for Lieutenant Governor MI
Driscoil opened his remarks by saying that he had
prepared a speech putting The name OF State Sen
ator Horace White. Of Syracuse before the conven-
ton as a candidate for Governor. Because of the
mornings Developments. he said. he had discarded
his original speech. He then briefly placed IN NOM
inAtion the name OF Senator White for the Lieu
tenant Governorship The call OF the roll was com
Melted and there being further nominations.
Secretary Gleason was instructed to cast the vote

made the conventions nominee, receiving a round

AN APPEAL FROM QUEENS.
The call for nominations for the office of State
Treasurer brought TO the convention very earnest
plea from Queens County. After Congressman J.
B. Perkins, of Rochester had placed In nomination
Senator Thomas b. Dunn. of Monroe. Dana Wal
lace, Queens delegate. mounted the platform and
requested that the convention nominate II. Homer
Moore, of that county, for the office under con-
sderation. Mr.. Wallace. in strong appeal declared
that for the first time in ten years Queens asked
for recognition the state ticket. He pointed out
the burden that loyal Republicans in hostile terri
tory had TO bear in keeping down Democratic ma
jorites, and said he thought IT unfair that New
York County should have two places on the ticket
and Queens none.
The roll call OF counties then ordered, during
which waves Of laughter swept over the convention
as delegates replied in answer 10 the call of their
counties, with puns such as these: Twelve Moore,
"All Dunn and other humorous plays upon the
names of the candidates. The result OF the ballot
showed OF for Mr.. Dunn and 81 for Mr. Moore.
The remainder OF the ticket was then quickly
