The Democratic State Convention re-assembled i this morning at Jl;30 o'clock. I The following nominations were made;" Secretary of the State Frederick Cook; Comptroller E. C. Wemple; Treasurer L. J. Fitzger ald; Attorney General Charles F. Tabor. : All the nominations were made by acclamation, except that for Attorney General, Tabor receiving 220 votes to 156 for Mr. W. A. Pouch er. ' ' . '-C' The platform as adopted declares that: :The unnecessary Federal taxation of the last fiscal year ' ex ceeded $100,000,000. Unnecessary tax ation is an unjust taxation. There fore the democracy of Ntw York de mand that the federal taxation be reduced by a sum not less than $100, 000,000 a year and also respectfully urge upon Congress that a measure shall be adopted, which will, in the language of the President's inaugural address, relieve the people from un necessary taxation, having a due re gard to the interests of capital inves ted and workingmen employed in American industries. The taxes to be first reduced or altogether re moved, or those on imported raw materials which now assist and pro mote foreign competition with our selves in our own markets and pre vent or hinder the eate of our sur plus products in foreign markets, along witn these taxes, should be forthwith remitted or reduced. The taxation which increases the cost to our own wage earners of the common necessaries of life and price of the common daily clothing of all our people. Besides these there are several hundred articles among the 4182 articles now taxed, which should be swept off the tax list into the free list, thereby diminishing the cost of collecting all seaport taxes, and casting away those which are : petty, needless, and vexatious. We also urge immediate enactment of the: measures prepared by Mr. Manning and Mr. Hewett represent ed to the last house by the committee of ways and means, to systematize, sy mplify and economize the machin ery for the collection of the customs rt venue, and especially tor making correct appraisement of foretgn values : wherever advolorem rates of duty shall be retained J,The Democracy of New York re iterate their support of the civil ser vice clause or tne united states ana of the State of New Yorkj and of their purpose to uphold them both. n view or tne radical cnange in ad ministration methods which grew out of the civil service laws and the differences of opinion which exist in relation thereto, we deem toe subject one which might ne appropriately submitted to a popular vote. The platform favors a reduction of government expenses, sympathizes with Ireland, tavors a . aays wor not to exceed ten hours and weekly payment in money, and a continu ance of the canal improvements, but without accepting federal aid, tavors a revised excise law applicable with out unjust discrimination throughout the State, and opposes au sump tuary fv laws - needlessly i interfering with: tne personal - uoerty ana reasonable habits and custom of any portion of our citizens; favors leg islation in the interest of labor; is against food adulteration, and for local reguiation,oi liquor tanrr ; heart ily oppose the administration of Gov.
