S-i WANT AGEUTS AL9Q--HX The democratic state convention for New Yorjk in session at Buffalo, nominated the following ticket; Governor W..R. Hearst. Lieutenant governor Lewis S. Chanler. f Secretary of state John S. Whalen. Comptroller Martin H. Glynn. Treasurer Julius Houser. Surveyor F. W. Keene. Three of these, Messrs. Hearst, Chanler and Whalen, were nominees of the independence league which met prior to the democratic convention. The substance of the platform adopt ed by the convention may be stated as follows: "At this time, when the authority, of democracy is invoked to defend plund er of the masses by a few rich men, through partial laws on one hand, and, on the other, to justify many ex travagant and revolutionary proposals which if adopted must inevitably pro duce worse disasters than the abuses they seek to cure; we deem It emin ently fitting to declare that the whole of. democratic" principles is embraced in the injunction laid on the first man that in the sweat of their .brows bread. We affirm it to be as much -the supreme duty, of government to pre vent any man from taking by violence, fraudulent device, or legislative favor one dollar or its equivalent pro duced by the labor of another -marl, as it is to protect every man in the en joyment of all the property, however extensive, produced by his own labor. W, .therefore denounce republican high protection, which enables a few iu inuuuw Vuo wjuuie uquy or inein fellow citizens, by charging -extoVfton ate prices for the necessaries ' of life and the essentials of industry. , "Every proposal that a municipality assume operation of all public utilities and reduce rates to persons using them, regardless of what the service may actually cost, Is on attempt to force some men to bear the expenses of others; because vhere the outlay for operation exceedsearnings the de ficit must be made -up by taxation, and this would he socialistic, and therefore hostile to justice and sub versive of democratic government. It is the duty of government, therefore, to ascertain the actual cost, of operat ing all public service corporations and to fix from time to time reasonable rates for the service they perform. "We demand the passage of such legislation" as will deal effectively with the whole subject of life insurance and encourage, this form of economy by making Its fruits absolutely secure. We are resolved, above all, that every rogue who has aided in planning this plunder, who has connived, at it or shared in its profits, shall be pursued by every punitive w.eap'ori of the law, wielded by honest, fearless, loyal pub lic prosecutors. ., 'We ask the federal government to exercise its influence o bring about speedy, cessation of .the, atrocities now being committed against the Jews In Russia. t 'In common with the., democrats- of all, the- states and expressing., the, sen timent of the high-minded pitizenship" of the republic without party," we view with pride anji. satisfaction the hospi tality and acclaim which have' been accorded, at home and abroad, to that great uemocrauc leader and typical American, William Jennings Bryan, to whom the democrats of New York ex tend most cordial and sincere felicita tions. "Finally, wo record our solemn be lief that corruption in the public ser vice or in corporate -management can not be eradicated while schemes of plunder are implanted in the very body of the law itself. Where the law not only permits, but empowers great trusts to exact for their products from the people of this country prices vast ly exceeding those asked in foreign countries, and this power to plunder WORK FOR YOURSELF Z'SSfXSg andral8oit huatllnrf crow of Baloomon, to soli & book vrixloh ovory farinor will buy as n bntslnoss proposition?
