1.-The Democracy of the state OF new
York, in convention assembled, herepy
declares as follows:
1--WE believe that the Democracy OF
the nation, by the strength of It's posi-
tion on questions of great public I'M
portance and by the blunders and ex-
travagance of the Republican party,
has this year presented to it an unusual
opportunity to return to the control OF
the government of the country, and 10
that end we believe that every sacrl-
flee which patriotism may Suggest OF
public sentiment require should pe
made by all members of the party IN
order to again put Democratic prin-
ciples into actual operation in the ad-
ministration of affairs Of the govern
ment.
I'VE believe that as the country is
greater than the party. so is the party
greater than any of its members, ana
therefore personal ambition ana IN
dividual preferment must give way 10
the good of the many and the trlumphs
of the cause.
Delegation Not Instructed
eve hold that Democratic traditions,
bound up as they are with much that
is greatest in the history of the coun-
try. require that national conventions
should be gatherings of the best intel
lect the ripest Judgment and the most
unselfish patriotism of the party, TOT
the purpose Of studying the needs ana
striving for the welfare of the country
at large. +,,o
And therefore we, representing the
party in the greatest state of the Un-
ion. q state whose electoral vote is es-
sential to Democratic victory, with no
animosity or hostility for any candi-
date, call upon the Democracy of the
country to send to Denver in July next
unpledged, unfettered and uninstructed'
their ablest strongest and most repre-
sentative men, to the end that out Oh

such men there may be then ana there
