Edward Lauterbach made a personal explanation of his conneclion with the recent attack on Colonel Roosevelt's alleged ineligibilits. At T:15 o'clock Secretary of State Palmer moved a roll call, and the mo- tion' was adopted. Before it =ot through the delegation it was evident Mr. Roosevelt had practically a walk- over, and at 7:32 enou~h votes had been cast to nominate. At T:41 the ro!. call was comvleted. and the vote was announced as follows: Roosevelt 753, Bl k 218. Then the auditors and the delegates arose in a great mass and cheered. Judge Cady got the floor and moved the unanimous nomination. While the question was pending, Senator Krum, who had supporteC Governor Black, said: “On behalf of Governor Black and his friends, I say that they stand by Theodore Roosevelt as he stood by the country.” The nomination was made unanimous and at 7:46 o’clock the convention took | a recess until 9 p. m. The night session was not called to order until 9:456 o’clock. The chairman announced that the platform was ready and General Woodford took the plat- form and read the resolution. The reading was frequently interspersed by applause and when finished the plat- form was adopted unanimously. The platform congratulates the coun- try upon the conclusion of the war with Spain, praises the ‘“patriotic wisdom, organized Democratic party of the na- tion adheres to these policies of free silver | and free trade and denies the right of the courts and of the Government to protect persons and property from violence. On | the coming $th of November we are to | elect not only our four State officers, but | also representative in Congress and mem- bers of our State Legislature. That Legislature in its term will elect a nited States/ Senator to succeed the | present Democratic Senator from this | State. Demccratic leaders declare they | ill conduct this campaign upon State is- | | sues alone. But it is known that if the | Democratic party secures the State Legis- lature it will re-elect to the United States Senate that Democrat who now represents his party there and misrepresents the | | State. hat Senator supported the cause of free silver, supported the nominees of the Chicago convention in the last Presi- dential election; gave his vote in the Sen- ate for the heresies of that Chicago plat- form, and, if re-elected, will continue to | support these heresies. ' Democrats may | try to deceive the people by ignoring the | anarchistic doctrines of that &nstrument in | their S platform, but their members of Congress and their Senator, if they should | | suceed in re-electing him, cannot and will | not ignore these doctrines at Washington. We are ready to meet the Democrats in all State issues, but in a larger sense this campaign is a national campaign, and our people cannot escape its national consequence. The election of Republi- can members of Congress and of a Re- | publican State Legislature will mean that New York shall stand for the main- tenance of the gold standard, and for such a re on of the currency laws as will guarantee to the labor of the coun- | try that every paper promise to pay a | dollar ued under the authority of the United States shall be of absolute and equal ilue with a gold dollar always @are to find by the wise utilization of @the conditions forced upon us how to &be safer and stronger within our >ld ®boundaries, and to add incalculably @ 0 American enterprise and oppor- § tunity by becoming masters of the g &sea, and entering with the surplus of @our manufactures the markets of the oworld. & The times require constructive @statesmen.

It expressed the Titanic rage of ; Washington at the treachery of Lee and turned the tide at Monmouth. It pierced like bullets the fears of the fleeing soldiers and sent them flying to the front and victory when Sheridan rode madly up the valley from Winchester. ) * Colonel Roosevelt is the typical citizen-soldler.

STOCKTON, Sept..27.—The Standard Electric Company of California, the company organized by Prince. Ponia- towski and his associates for the pur- pose of conducting eélectricity from the electrical works of the Blue Lakes ‘Water Company in Calaveras County: to San Francisco, and for supplying intermediate towns, will ‘immediately apply for a franchise covering the city of Stockton, allowing the company to distribute its power throughout this city. The idea is to furnish electricity for both lights and power. ¥ Prince Poniatowski stated to-day that 1000 horse-power would be availa- ble here at the start. S The intention is to continue the line on to San Francisco. Rights of way have already been secured from the power works to San Francisco. The line will cross the islands to Béthany and then on through the Livermore Valley to Oakland. In crossing the bay a cable will be used, although there has been -some . speculation as to whether it would not be preferable to use a suspended wire, utilizing the’ isl- ands and shallow places where supports could be placed. Pawer will be furnished not only in this city but in towns near the line, by running branch wires to them from the main one. Electricity will also be fur- nished on . the islands for pumping water for irrigation purposes. Presidential Appointments.

Judge Cady finished amid tremendous applause, his closing remark about Governor Black’s faith- fulness to the ticket calling forth the enthuslasm of the audicnce. At 4:556 o'clock Chauncey M. Depew took the platform to nominate Theodore Roosevelt. For some minutes Dr. Depew could not begin his speech for the ap- plause that ensued. Those portions of his speech relating to President Mc- Kinley were received with much ap- plause and there was a vigorous recep- tion of the tribute to Governor Black. ‘When Mr. Depew told of the famous charge of the Rough Riders and men- tioned Colonel Roosevelt the audience went into almost hysterical enthusiasm. When Mr. Depew had reached the point in his speech where he alluded to the effect of Mauser bullets two or more men rushed down the aisle bearing a big portrait of Roosevelt in Rough Rider uniform. There was a three' min- ute interruption and the picture was taken to the stage and set up. | be never George N. Southwick of Albany that of Roosevelt. Senator Lexow took the platform to speak for Governor Black, but the au- dience showed its dissatisfaction at de- lay by crying for the vote. He spoke briefly. Elihu Root was called to the platform by the chairman, and made a statement as to the eligibility of Mr. Roosevelt to hold offic.. He said Mr. Roosevelt had always voted in Oyster Bay, and had merely removed his personal property to Washington. He had alwvays paid taxes in Oyster Bay and had merely refused to pay taxes on property he was using in Washington, and by his affidavit he merely said that he was not a resident of New York. ‘When Mr. Root read a letter from Mr. Roosevelt to his lawyer, asking for some money, and saying that he had expended so much money that he was beyond his income, Mr. Root said: “Mr, Roosevelt had expended that L oney to raise the Rough Riders.” ‘There was a great burst of applause, and Mr. Root closed by saying the doc- umentary proof not only showed that lost his residence, but OTOTOTOTOTO Y GO Here are letters from two.other grateful hearts: From the timemy courses commenced, every time they came I would suffer ten.'ible gu.in. b 4 got 5o bad that I would be taken with fits and would fall.
