Metropolis Wants the Honor of Entertaining Demo cratic National Con
 vention. !
BALTIMORE ALSO
 IS CANDIDATE
Representatives of the Last Named City Say the Metropolis Is Much
 Too Large.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-The sud- den hustle of New York for the demo- cratic national convention has given Baltimore and St. Louis some anxiety. I. is still the contention of Chairman Robert Grain, and his band of Balti- more committeeman that their city i5 in the lead, and that the New York movement will eventually aid in giving Baltimore the prize. The argument against New York is that a national convention would simply be lost in that great city and arouse no public interest or enthusiasm. It is recalled that the republicans went to Philadel- phia in 1900 for the renomination of over what was handed them even in that large city. Col. Grain promises this week.
 The last democratic national conven- ton held in New York was that of 1868. when Seymour and Blair was the ticket. That convention was hell in Tammany wigwam. then a new building, and it had almost it's dedica- ton with the Seymour convention. Ho- ratio Seymour had beer the democratic governor of New York, but he did not want the presidential nomination. For weeks he declared. Your candidate I canot be-" and then swearing he would ne'er consent, consented. and made what seemed a hopeless cam pagn from the start. The vote in the electoral college gave Grant PA votes and Seymour but S0. although the pop Ular majority for Grant was but 304, 900. Seymour managed to carry New York, New Jersey. Maryland, Dela- ware, Louisiana. Georgia, Oregon, and Kentucky. but outside of New York the states he won had few electoral votes.
 Since 1868 there has been no great effort for national convention in New York. and there is some wonder that a movement for the democratic gath eIing should take shape at this time. New York may present Gov. Dix as a presidential candidate, but there is no real activity in his favor.

The objection to the tariff board is that, being an appointive body. it places the very principles of the tariff bodily under the direct supervision of the presi- dent, which is not democratic, as the constitution gives the house the DOW CT af initiative in revenue legislation As to travelling expenses, the demo- crats feel the amount named is be- ing used against the democratic par tv. and cut it off for that reason.
