support. Then follow Mayor George r.
Lunn Of Schenectady. former SOCIALIST,
with decided radical tendencies; Peter
| Ten Eyck OF Albany. Judge t. c. T.
| Grain of New York and Cornelius F..
| Burns OF Troy.
| The platforms OF both parties will be
radical, but the Syracuse declaration
will go much further than the Albany
| platform. The Democrats may declare
| for everything and anything Hearst
wants: for 8 cent fares. cheaper milk
and gas. higher wages and all the isms
advocated by Hearst or Hylan. Also
the Democrats will rest their case largely
on criticism OF Gov. Miller's policies.
The Republicans are expected TO go fur
ther than the State party has gone in
years in pledging reforms and economies.
but will not try to rival the Hearstisms.
| Mr.. Hearst's announcement that he in
tends to go into the convention and fight
/. out on the floor is disconcerting to his
opponents, distressing to his enemies.
THIS who fear him believe he would not
go 10 a ballot in the convention unless
there was some assurance from the Tam
many chief that he has some prospects Of
winning.
Need Money, Hearst May Give 1t.
One Of the things which is giving
| Mr.. Murphy and the party workers
much concern is their campaign fund.
| They need much money to finance their
undertaking Of rehabilitating theup-State
Democracy. Excepting In a few spots
| like Syracuse and Buffalo, the upstate
organization Is a wreck and Murphy Is
trying hard in this campaign to put
| II together.
Estimates are that Il will take 81, ,000.-
900 at least and possibly $2.0O0,00O to
| do the constructive work needed II the
| Democrats are to make any showing
upstate in the campaign. They count
New York city safe and will make their
| fight all above the Bronx.
| Mr.. Hearst is the only man OF great
wealth now In line for the Democratic
nomination. Whether he is inclined to
| chip In million or so to build up his
party In this State has In no way been
indicated on the surface. If the leaders
had hopes of a real campaign fund
which they admit they will require to
beat Miller, 1t might make big diff
ference.
The leaders will confer with Mr.. Muir
phy in Syracuse Tuesday evening. Prob
ably nothing definite will be decided. Mr..
Hearst's managers and possibly the
editor himself will be there. The con-
vention preliminaries will be decided In
conferences Wednesday.
The convention will meet Thursday
and possibly ballot or two will be taken
with each Of the sections declaring for
a favorite son. but with no one strong
enough to win unless there Is STAN
pede to Smith. That Is hardly possible.
as Murphy has a majority OF the total
number OF delegates from New York
city. After that ballot on Thursday
night II is expected Mr.. Murphy will
have learned the wishes OF the dele
gates. On Friday the convention will
nominate.
Many Native Sons offered.
Among the possible nominees whose
names are being considered for positions
on the Democratic ticket are:
For United States Senator-Thomas G.
Lockwood of Buffalo. Mayor Lunn OF
Schenectady and Martin II. Glynn of
Albany.
For ant-Governor-Mayor John
II walrath of Syracuse and James e.
Doyle OF Syracuse.
For Attorney-General- = Judge Frank
Irvine OF ithaca, Charles Norris OF Car
thage and Charles r. O'Connor OF Della
ware. formerly State prohibition officer.
For State Engineer-Dwight B. La Du
of Albany.
For Controller--James NJ. Power OF
Brooklyn.
In Erie county. where William J. Con-
ners, Hearst manager. was beaten badly
In the primaries, and in Syracuse the
regulars are predicting and betting that
II will be Smith on the first ballot. Fitz-
patrick and Kelly, leaders Of Erie and
Onondaga. are NJ. Murphys close
