"Admrablei admirable!' exclaimed Mayor Nc
Clellan yesterday when a representative of The
Tribune told him of the ticket selected at Roches
ter 1T is remarkably strong ticket" continued
the Mayor. The men nominated are all strong
Chanler and Dix make unusually strong COM
binatien. The whole ticket should make a very
strong run
DO you think this is Democratic year. both in
the state and nation?'' the Mayor asked.
We'll. in reply TO that all I care TO say Is to
refer you to the Maine election"
''Will you make active campaign for Mr..
Chanler7"
The Mayor smiled and said it too early to
talk about that.
President McGowan Of the Board of Aldermen
was enthusiastic over the Democratic state ticket
ITS about the best ticket they could have put
in the field" he said. why. everybody knows
Chanler. All the state he has a reputation
for ability and integrity. He is good speaker
and his personality is unusually pleasing Mr.
eral- Mr. Whalen will make an excellent candt-
date for Secretary Of State. Hauser should poll
thousands OF votes among the German population
and-weu, to up the whole ticket. II is splendid
and should be elected This year it is case Of
two high class running against each other.
Don't be mistaken about Senator McCarren's
position. He will back the ticket up. You can
count him to get out and work for IT, The
Brooklyn Senator has backbone. II he did not
think he could support a man you count it
that he would have out and said so. But hs
will be for Chanler and the ticket all right. This
looks like it should be a fine Democratic year. 1t
couldn't look like anything else in this state after
the old party has got together and nominated such
a ticket"
Controller Metz had not heard of the ticket when
he was seen in his Office yesterday In reply to a

was hour and twenty minutes after that time
when the delegates were called together by forfler
Justice Morgan ]. OBrien the temporary chair-
man. The delay had been caused by the laying OF
the pipes for the Murphy coup on the nohilna-
tion for State Engineer All the leaders were
cheered as they entered the hall The committee
on organization announced the selection OF ex-
Judge Alton B. Parker as permanent chalrlnsh'
and the usual minor officers. Lewis Nixon or New
York, Mr. Fitzpatrick Erie, and Mr. Norris, OF
jefferson, escorted the permanent chairman TO the
platform and he received cordial greeting
Judge Parker paid involuntary tribute TO Governor
Hughes's work in connection with the insurance
investigation and subsequent legislation TO prevent
the use OF corporation funds for campaign contri-
buttons though the Governor was not mentioned
directly The speaker arraigned the Republican
party nationally for its failure TO pass laws pre-
venting this condition. but spoke of the legislation
enacted here after the insurance Investigations.
Judge Parker devoted a large part OF his address
TO a description of the conditions, which he said
had grown up under Republican administrations
whereby the great corporations paid funds into the
campaign chest, ard in turn were coddled ana pro-
tected until they grew powerful that they owned
the political party and could dictate their desires

at this point il was evident that Farley would be

cARMoDY READS PLATFORM.

The next matter OF business was the report or
the committee on resolutions and Chairman Thomas
T Carmodv was recognized to present the plat
form He read the document and was interrupted
from time TO time by outbursts Of applause.
The platforn long and full Of piattudes and
,loetcalities displays violent animosity toward
Governor Hughes which. incidentally. discloses the
Democratic fear OF his candidacy Ihe prlnclpal
nIanks are those predicted by The Tribune on
Tuesday, but coupled with them are some others
somewhat novel
Stripred OF its imitation. the platform is an at
tack on Republican progress In the guise or re-
nunciation OF expensive methods OF administration
and an attack Of various sorts Governor
Hughes both for what he has done and what the
Democrats conceive him TO have failed TO do. The
declaration is made that he made his adrninistra-
tion one of "spectacular methods and self-adver-
+ie,-r issues" He Is denounced for having failed
under the Moreand act, passed in 190T TO invest-
gate state departments, although the platform
builders seemed to forget that with Democrats at
the head of the state departments there surely
could be nothing to investigate The only refer
ance to his anti-gambling legislation a plank
deplorfng attacks on personal and economic lib
srty.. and demanding less untried and probably
unconstitutional legislation.
Among other things the platform pledges to
policemen legislation comforting the right OF
certiorari and establishing a three-patoon system
and denounces the Republican administration OF
the Civil Service laws for political purposes. -
