Griffin Nominated for Gov- ernor by the National Democrats. The national democratic party of New York held a convention in the Brooklyn Academy of Music last night. Daniel G. Griffin of Watertown was nominated for goverror, Frederick W. Hinrichs of Brook- lyn for Heutenant governor and Spencer Clinton of Buffalo for associate justice of the court of appeals. A full set of electors was named. Palmer and Buckner, together with the Indianapolis platform, were indorsed and an address to the people was issued, tell- ing why the Chicago platform and ticket could not be support It w in the main a reiteration of the cardinal aeclarations of the Indianapolis platform and closed with an appeal to all voters to support the national demo- cratic ticket, state and national. It read in part as follow: Appeal to Vote “To the democracy of the state of New York: The democratic party from its for- mation, as exemplified by the teachings of its illustrious founders and leaders, tn its formal actions and in the sentiments of the great mass of {ts adherents, has al- ways contended for a faithful ‘perform- ance of public and private contracts, an honest currency, respect for and obedi- ence to judicial authority, and that the creation of class distinctions, foreign to the genius of our jnstitutions, would inevitably menace the safety of the republic. “While these principles do not embrace all the claims the party has on public re- gard they are its chief glory, and have enabled i> for a hundred years to win re- nown in the administration of public af- fairs, and overcome Its too-frequent ad- verses and mismanagement. “Virdicated by two recent national vic- tories and disciplined by the stern les- sons of former defeats, 2he party as a national organization could never more truthfully claim the virtues alluded to than at the time, of the assembling of the late Chicago ccnvention. “But, for months prior to that event, while the trusted guardians of democracy were unsuspecting and relying on the con- servative habits of the party, a conspiracy was progressing in distant states, sup- ported by avarice on one hand and reck- less fanaticism on the other, to commit the party to the support of the undemo- cratic doctrines later enunciated in the Chicago platform. “The party in New York was thoroughly aroused by the danger it saw impending. The fullest discussion took place in the primaries called to choose delegates to the Saratoga convention and in other party assemblies. “Because we maintain that the princi- ples declared at Saratoga and reiterated at Indianapolis are too important and sa- cred to yield to the clamor of party trregu larity, we are now charged with attempt- ing to disrupt the party. “Acknowledging the humillation which has been inflicted unon the democratic party by the Chicago and Buffalo conven- tions, we take up the task suspended at Syracuse, and call to all who would not have the American people shunned as lep- ers in the world of trade and commerce, ard who believe ‘it is the duty of the peo- ple to support the government and not the duty of the government to support the peo- ple,’ to unite in. supporting the principles and nominees ,of the national demccratic party. “Such are the chief reasons and motives which actuate ua, and we confidently ap- peal for support to our fellow democrats to assist us In preventing a second betrayal of our party.” Not Large, but Select. The convention was not a large one, but many of the men formerly prominent in democratic conventions were present as delegates or onlookers. Ctarles S. Fairchild, as chairman, called the meeting together and presided. He read a telegram from Atlanta, Ga., from Jefferscn Randolph Anderson, chairman of the Gecrgia gold convention, extending sympathy and regards. After the roll call, a resolution making the name of the organization the national demccratic party, and authorizing the state committee to fill vacancies was passed withcut dissent. Following this resolutions urging the nomiration of congressional and judicial tickets In each district and providing for the same, were passed by acclamation, a3 were resolutions declining to make as- sembly rominations. The platform and ad- dress were adopted unanimously and the nominations as given were then made by ncclamation amid much enthusiasm and cheering. General Palmer entered about this time, and the delegates and audience arose and cheered lustily. When introduced General Palmer appealed to his hearers to be firm in their determination to put principl> above party and defeat both McKinley and Bryan. Mr. Palmer recited some transactions in which Illinois had figured as insisting upon payirg her debts in gold and said: “I am justified in saying that Mlinois’ present great prosperity—and she is the third most prosperous state in the Union— is because she met her. debts fairly and hcnestly and with credit, and I believe the other great states In the. Union will follow per cremple in this national matter this Speaking of Mr. Bryan's, indorsement on three platforms he said: ‘The populists like Bryan because he ig a populist; the silver men like him because is a silver man, and the Chicago platform-makers like him because he is everything to everybody and an enarchist, if you please.” (Applause #nd laughter.) ie General Palmer then went into a2 lengthy discussion of the free silver question, after which the convention adjourned without any formal resolution, ———+o+—__.

To the Editor of The Evening Sta The managers of the democratic party, who, with their candidate, claim to be friends of the people, and good Americans, seem to have very poor memories. Had they known what a hornets’ nest they were stirring up they would have let the aristo- cratic Bismarck alone in his old age and retiracy and dealt with living forces, es- pecially as they claim to have such a holy horror of foreign influence. It is not many years ago that there came to this country one of the great German leaders, Edward Lasker, an opponent worthy of Rismarck’s steel, who, in and out of parliament, had opposed the monarchial measures of Prince Bismarck—Edward Lasker being a leader of and for the people in contravention to the despotic rule of Bismarck. Mr. Lasker was recognized by the American peopie as ene of the champions of liberty and equ ity, and was honored one and all. died suddenl, a few days prior to his expected for home, and the American Congress, testify its appreciation and express its sym- pathy for the great cead leader, passed resolutions of condolence, and which w sent to the German government and were blunuy and brutally refused, Bismarck showing his hatred, not only for the dead autagonist, but even for the representative of this great and free country. But not alone did his hatred go to that extent, but Went one step further. The resident min- ister of Germany in Weshington, Captain Von Eisendecker, for having extended cour- He yin the city of New York, just ure tesies to Lasker, and having acted as the nedium cf the transmittal of those con- gressional resolutions, was recalled and banished to Carlsruh, which is equivalent to dismissal almost from the public servic and this is the man “the friends of the American people” are holding up as a mode} and for Americans to follow; whose opinion on any question is to be taken as to Amer- ican policy. I do not know what those to the manner born may do in regard to any matter purely American and advocated or recommended by Bismarck; 1 do knew that there wiil not be one single vote changed on the part of those who know the claws of the old tiger, and have felt their force The German Americans, while having love for their fatheriand, and admiration for what Bismarck has contributed to the unity of Germany, will not for a moment tolerate or breok interference on the part of Bis- marck, or any other German, in the matter of being taught their duty as Americans. But aside frcm this, in reading Bismarck’s letter carefully, I can see that it is a bad translation, and feel confident that he never advocated, and does not now, “free and un- limited silver coinage.” He is a bimetallist, as is well known, and his idea no doubt is that the American people should set the initiative, so that all the old German sily which from time immemorial has been de- rreciating, may be sent over by the ship- load and dumped into our mints, coined at our expense, to the gratification of German bankers, and to the detriment of the United States. It should be remembered, moreover, that it was Bismarck who in 1871 demonetized silver in Germany and established the single gold standard in that country, which contributed so effectively toward preven’ ing the United States from returning to a bimetailic standard. If now Bismarck ad- vocates the experiment for the United States to try silver monometallism with an implied view to forcing Europe to adopt bimetallism, it is plain that the wily old statesman is trying to find a profitable market for the surplus silver which Ger- many has withdrawn from circulation If the democratic leaders can find no bet- ter card than a letter from Bismarck, they had better stop meddling with the buzs saw. S. WOLF. —= Suspected of Murder. A big sensation has been created at Charleston, S. C., by the arrest of Police Electrician W. H. Easterlin. He is held in connection with the mysterious death of the infant hich was found in the river under the trestle of the East Shore Termi- nal road Tuesday afternoon with a rock tied around its neck. The supposition is that Easterlin is the father of the child and that the mother is a member of a re- spectable family of that city. An autopsy revealed the fact that the child had been strangled to death,
