WASHINGTON. Feb. 22,1884. Saratoga Convention. The Convention rjiet as cajled on the 18th, and was^calledj' to order! by Daniel Manning, Chairman: of the [Democratic State Committee, whlo proBOseji for tem- porary Chairman of the Convention, as agreed upon by the State Committee, Hon. William E. Smith, of Clinton Co., and foi Secretaries, James E. Morrison and Jami J. Martin, of New York. On taking th< chair, Mr. Smith said: * 0 Gentlemen of the convention: We hav- met to-day under circumstances which cannot fail to be encouraging to eVery per- son who desires th'e success of the Demo- cratic candidates at the next election. The Republican party, jby its abandonment of those principles which secured it the con- v fidence of a majority of the people in the past, has lost many of its former ad- herents. While the facts which have been published during the past four years as to the means and methods by which Republi- can success in the last National campaign was accomplished, have convinced the\ .people that but for bribery and corruption, Gen. Hancock would to-day be our presi- dent. The Democratic party by its earn- est advocacy of^retrenchment and reform in the National and State government, has j retained all its fo*ner strength, and gained . many recruits from the ranks of 'its oppo- nents. The hnportaace of the political issues of the present time cannot be over- estimated, and the position which the Democratic party will assume in the com- ing canvass may be, to a great extent, de- termined by your action, to-day. Reports : from all parts of the country show that thousands of Democrats in every State of the Union are anxiously awaiting the re- sult of this convention. (Cheers.) Ti ing, gentlemen, that wise counsels may prevail in all your deliberations, I thank you for the hdnor you have conferred up- 4 on me. The usual preliminary steps taken toward perfecting the organization, and a recess was taken. On re-assembling, the committee upoi organization, reported in favor })f the con tinuance of the temporary officers. Hon. Nelson J. Waterbury, chairman of the committee on resolutions, presented the platform and resolutions as follows Resolved, That the Democracy of .the St&te of New York, assembled to appoint delegates to the national convention of tho party, commits to those delegates, in as- sociation with the representatives of the party from- tho other States, a general declaration of Democratic principles- upon national issues. At the same time, recog- nizing that no issjie can be more important than the election, of a president of tho United States wh<jse character and public reputation shall give to the whole people an assurance of ah honest, impartial and efficient administration of the laws with- out suspicion of personal ends or private interests. Resolved, That as a declaration concern- ing tike matter of State government this convention adopts and affirms the resolu- tions of the conventions of the party in 1874, 1876 and 1883 to which the people of the State have given hearty approval. That it recognizes the duty of the legisla- ture to respect the popular vote in 1888 for the abolition of the contract syBtem of labor in the prisons. Resolved, That it heartily commonds anew the efficient and upright administra- tion of Governor Grover Cleveland. [Ap- plause and cheers.] Resolved, That the delegates to the Democratic National convention to be ap- pointed are hereby instructed to enter that convention as a unit, and to act and vote as a unit in accordance with the will of a majority of tho mem- bers thereof. Every delegate or alternate occupying the place of a delegate to bo bound by this rule, and in case of tho ab- sence of both the delegates and alternates from any district the vacancy is to be filled by the vote of a majority of tho delega- tion. (In introducing the platform and resolu- tions, Judge Waterbury said: The candidate of the Democratic party for the presidency must be what the candi- date of the Republican party is not. (Loud applause.) He must emphatically bo what the candidates of the Democratic party have been in the past. We have seen and we all know as a matter of fact, in the political history of our country, that dur- ing a period of more than fifty years tho government of this country was admin- istered with honesty and with wonderful success. He referred to tho nongovern- ment of the Republican party and tho op- portunity now offered to tho Democratic party.) The reading of resolutions waB In- terrupted by frequent applause and cheers for Cleveland. The resolutions were adopted* unani- mously.

Almost every expression since Um Sara- toga Convention calls for the nomination of Governor Cleveland at Chicago. The feeling In other states, Mexhlbttedtn lead- ing newspapers In all directions, appears to be very gBnuraUr favorable to his no Inatlon.
