Maine Democrats for Gold.

Portland, Me., June 18.—The democratic state convention elected dele-gates-at-large to the national convention at Chicago. The platform declared in favor of a gold standard, against the free coinage of silver, in favor of a resubmission of the state prohibition amendment and of high license and local option. It highly indorses President Cleveland and denounces the protective tariff as operated by republicans, declaring in favor of legislation which shall restore the country to prosperity.
