After listening last night to the Finging speeches of ‘the candidates on Democratic State ticket, the State Committee to-day started out on the initial steps of the campaign with confidence which seemed born of Sureness of success. The one domi- ant feature of the ceremonies’ atten- dant upon the notification of former Gor. Smith and his associates on the ticket at the Democratic Club was the absolute confidence expressed in the Fesult of the election, which 1s litte tore than thirty days away. The Fitth Avenue home of democ- macy was crowded to its capacity, ‘Whatever that is, Probably there were 1,000 met and women in the reception foom, the corridors, the hallways and lower rooms, and several hundred imOre Waited on the curt and side- Walks of the avenuo yelling for the appearance of Al Smith.

Millet, for election purposes, that hears no re- semblance to the real Governor, the record of whose first year indicated what he really had in his heart. * He spoke of Gov.

When they called on Gov, Miller, he told them they were @ menace to the State." “T appointed a board for the con sideration of strikes and lockouts ané sat in with them myself and adjusted @ great,many of the strike troubles throughout the State. Gov. Miller called out the police. “The water power interests knew better than fo call on me, because they ‘had known my position on water power for ten years. They know that T am in favor of the development, ownership and control of the water power of the State by the State, to the énd that the people themselves may get the full Bagefit of their natu- ral resources,” Last night's developments made e Stute cam.

Both Mayor Lunn and Dr. Cope laud won their bearers, thelr oratory and directress of attack on the thlttes to which théy Wére opposed bringing out the greatest enthusiasm. Dr. Copeland expressed himself prec- tically a8 opposed to everything that Senator Calder favored. But tt was Al who sounded the key- note of the campaign and his speech fired the audi¢ice to the highest pitch if excitement. He charged Gov, Millér with having catered to the Inter@sts—traction, water power, telephone, gas, ¢lectric— and numerous others Inimleal to the best interests of the people, .He also charged fim with having closed the ador upon the representatives of la- bor; with having spurned the pleas of the League of Women Voters; and with having refused to take action toward betterment of the condition of the insane soldigra in the State insti- tutions. The former Governor declared ai! the welfure measures of importance enacted in this State in twenty years were enacted under Democratic Ad- ministrations. He mentioned some of them as the Workmen's Compensation Act, Fifty-four Hour Law for Women, prohibiting child labor in the can- nerles, prohibiting night work for women, one day of rest in seven, widows’ pensions, child welfare, “smergency rent laws, reorganization of the Health Department, Leiter pro- tection from fire’ in factories, abolition of female help in foundries, compul- sory, Installation of rest rooms for women In factories and mercantile es tablishments. While the Miller Administration !s entitled, he sald, to credit for the ex- tension of the boards of child welfare and the children’s courts, these things were really begun during lis own term of office, and before Gov. Miller was éver thought of for Governor. Carl Sherman, nominee for At- tourney General; Dr. Jamés A. Hamil- ton, nomince for Secretary of State: Mayor James W. Fleming of Troy, nominee for State Comptroller George K. Schuler, nominee for State Treasurer, and Dwight B.
