Sickles said at the recent meeting of the Grand Army : "The Deoole of the United States will see that no man is ever elected to an office of profit and trust in this country who opposes the payment of pensions to the soldiers otthe rebe.I 1011." Some of the more reckless of the Republican organs are parading this sentiment and applying it against Grover Cleveland. If Gen. Sickles had meant to apply it to Mr. Cleveland he would have said so. He does not usually mince his words. As an honest and well in formed though occasionally too im pulsive man, Gen. Sickles could not have the Democratic candidate in his mind, because during President Cle veland's Administration more pension ers ere put upon the rolls and more money was paid in pensions than had ever bef)re been added or disbursed in the same length of time. The only criticism that could with justice be brought against President Cleveland is that he signed too many rather than too few pension bills. For 1 836 7-8 Gen. Black, President Cleveland's Tension Commissioner, issued 350,452 certificates, exceeding by 168,231 the last three years of the preceding Republican Administration. The disbursements for the san.e per iod exceeded those of the Republican Commissioner bv $34,000,000. There were 345,000 pensioners on the list when President Cleveland as sinned office. When he left there were 489,000 a gain of 144,000. The increase during the preceding four years of Republican rule was only 95, 00-0. President Cleveland vetoed exactly 250 private pension bills during his four years in office, all of them for good reasons. But he signed or per mitted to become laws 1,825, which was 259 more than were approved by ail the Presidents from Grant to Ar thur, both inclusive. Does this record look like hostility to r.oldrs or opposition tD pensions ? World. s Letter. TheEx-PresidentAcceptstlie Democratic Nomination. Issues of tho Campaign. A AND CONCISE EXPOSI TION OF ISMCCSATIC PRINCIPLES. Tariff Baform and Other Questions. On Monday Ex-President Cleveland issued hi letter of acceptance of the Democratic nomination for President. It U addressed to Will, am L. Wilson, chairman of the notifica tion committee, and is as follows. Genti.emin 1 In responding to your for mal notification of my nomination to the Presidency by the national Democracy, I hope I may be permitted to fay at the out set that continued reflection and observation have confirmed me in my adherence to the opinions, which I have heretofore plainly and publicly declared, touching the questions in volved in the canvass. This it a time, above all others, when these questions should 1 e considered in the light afforded by a sober apprehension of the principles upon which our government is based and a clear understanding of the rela tion it bears to the people for whose benefit it was created. We shall thus be supplied with a test by which the value of any propo sition relating to the maintenance and ad ministration of our government can be as- j cenained and by which the justice and hon- I esty of every Political Question can be hiW.I If doctrines or theories are presented which ao 1101 sausiy mis test loyal Americanism must pronounce them false and mischievous. The protection of the people in the exclu ive use ana employment ol their property ami earnings, couceacaiy constitutes the es pecial purpose and mission of our free gov ernment. This design is so interwoven w ith the structure of our plan of rule that failure , to protect the chizen in such use or enjov. ment, or their unjustifiable diminution by the government itself, is a betrayal of the peo- TARIFF LEGISLATION. We have, however, undertaken to build great nation upon a plan especially our own! 10 maintain it and to furnish thrmioH u. agency the means for the accomplishment of naiionai oojecis, tne American people are willing, through t ederal taxation, to surren der a part of their earnings and income. Tariff legislation presents a familiar form of Federal taxation. Such legislation results m ureiy a iax upon the daily life of our peo. pie as tne triiiute paid directly into the hand 01 me tax-gatherer We feel the burden of tnese land taxes too palpably to be persuad o by any sophistry that they do not exist, vi pom vy lurcigncrs. sucn taxes, representing a diminution of tne property rights of the people, are only justifiable when laid and collected for the purpose 01 maintaining our government and furnishim; the means for the c,-nmnlui, of in legitimate purposes and functions. This is taxation under the operation of a tariff for revenue. It accords wiih the profes.ionr of "n: umiiuuons, ana its lustice ana honesty answer the test supplied by appreciation 01 tne principles u-ou which these institutiout rest. ' This theory of tariff legislation manifestly enjoins strict economy in public expenditures .iu uicir limitation 10 legitimate public uses, inasmuch as it exhibits as absolute extortion any enaction, by way of taxation, from the substance of the people, lievond the ties of a careful and proper administration of government. THE REPUBLICAN DOGMA. Opposed to this theory boldly presented, that tariff taxation is incti. fable for the express purpose and intent of mereoy promoting especial interests and en terprises. Such a proposition is so clearlv contrary to the spirit of our Constitution and so directly encourages the disturbance bv ii;i.n. 1 j - K K'a i patriotic sentiment ..... ... ... chichi wuuiu ruaeiy tnock our people it they had not already been insidious ly allured from the safe landmarks of princi' pie. -ever. nave honest desire for national growth, patriotic devotion to country and sincere regard lor those who toil' len n l trayea to the support of a pernicious doc- trine, in its behalf the Dlea that nur if.n. industries should be fostered did service un til discredited by our stalwart growth ; then followed the exigencies of a terrible war, w hich made our people heedless of the op. portunities for ulterior schemes afforded by liieir willing and patiiotic payment of unpre cedented tribute ; end now, after a long period of peace, when our overburdened countrymen ask for relief and a restoration to a fuller enjoyment of their incomes an.

HOW LABOR IS AFFECTED. These pretenses should no loncer ilec.-lv... The truth is that such a system is direet!v antjgmized by every sentiment of justice and fair iiess of which Americans are pre-eminent, ly proud. It is also true that wbi . woi kinsmen nnd farmers can, ihu least of all o-.ir people' defend themselves ajjainst the harder home life which such tariff taxaiiun dc-reea, ihe workingman, suffering from the iniKrtalion and employment of pauper labor ini.iig.teU by his piofessed friends, and seek, iiijj security for his interests in organized co operation, still w.-.its for a division of the ad van'.ages secured to his employer tinder cover ( f a generous tolLituue fur his wages, while the farmer is learning that the prices of his products are fixed in foreign markets, where he suffers from a competition invited and l.ui'.t up by the system he is nbked to sup. port. The struggle for unearned advantage at Cleveland 1.. .1 f .1 - . . rights of those who patiently rely upon a sin tnecs of American equality. Kwry e"v ernmental concession to clamorous favorites invites corruption in political nfTr.irs by tn cournging the expenditure of money to de bauch sutfrage in support of a policy directly favorable to private and se!fi.-h ruin. This in the end must strangle pa uiuiisni iimi wvaKcn popular lonhuence 111 tne rectitude of Kcpublican institutions. Though the subject of tariff legislation in volves a question of markets, it also involves a question of morals, We cannot wiih im punity permit injustice to laint the spirit of right and equity which is the life of our re public t and we shall fail to reach our nation al destiny if greed and selfishness lead the way. TARIFF REFORM THE WATCHWORD. Recognizing these truths, the national Dc mocracy will seek, by the application of just ana sounu principles, to equalize to our peo. pie the blessings due them from the govern ment iney iupon, to promote among our countrymen a closer community of interests cemented iy patriotism and national pride, and to point out a fair field, where frostier- ous and diversified Ameiican enterprise may grow mm tnrive in tne wnojesome atmos phere of American industry, ingenuity nnd intelligence. Tanft reform is still our purpose. Though we opivose the theory that tariff laws may be passed having for their object the granting of discriminating ana uniair government aid to private venture, we wage no exterminating war against any American interests. We be. lieve a readjustment can be accomplished in accordance with the principles we profess, without disaster or demolition. We believe that Ihe advantages of freer raw materials should be accorded to our manufacturers, and we content; late a fair and careful dis tribution of necessary tariff burdens, rather than the precipitation of free trade. We anticipate with calmness the misrepre sentation of our motives and purses, insti gated by a selfishness which seeks to hold in unrelenting grasp its unfair ndvantagc under present tariff laws. We will rely upon the intelligence of our fellow-countrymen 10 re ject the charge that a partv, comprising a majority of our people, is fanning the de struction or injury of American interests, and we know they cannot be frightened by the spectre of impossible free trade. FOR AND WITH THE I'EOI'LR. The administration and management of our government depend upon popular will. Federal power is the instrument of that will, not its master. Therefore, the attempt of the 0)oiieiits of Democracy to intcrefcre with mid control the siiffraue of the States ihiough general agencies develops a design, which no explanation can mitigate, to re. verse the fundamental nnd safe relations be tween the people and their covernment. Such an attempt cannot fail to 1 e rtfp.irdfd uy inougiuiui men as proot ol a bold deter nunation to secure the ascendancy of a dis credited party in reckless disregard of a free expression of the popular will. To resist such a scheme is an impulse of Democracy. At all times and in all places we trust the people. As against a disposition to force the way to Federal power we present to them as our claim to their confidence and support a steady championship of their rights. The people are entitled to sound and hon est money, abundantly surhcient in volume to supply their business needs. Lut what ever mny be the form of ihe people's curren cy, national or State, whether gold, lilver or paper, it shoulJ be so regulated and guarded by governmental action, or by wise and care ful Taws, that no one can be deluded as to the certainly and stability of its value. Kvery dollar put into the hands of the people should be of the same intrinsic value or purchasing power. Wiih this condition absolutely guar anteed both gold and silver can be safely i .u . . ; . . . . u.niicri upon equal terms in the adjustment ii uur currency. NO DOUBTFUL EXPEDIENTS. in dealing with this subject no selfish scheme should be allowed to intervene and no doubtful experiment should be attempted. The wants of our people, arising from the de ficiency or imperfect distribution of money circulation, ought to be fully and honestly cutinzca ana emciently remedied. It should, however, be constantly remembered that the inconvenience or loss that mi.Tiit arise from such a situation can be much easier borne than the universal distress which must touow a discredited currency. Public officials are the Birents of the ceo. pie. It is, therefore their duty to secure for im.se wnom tney represent the best and most efficient performance of public work. This plainly can be best accomplished by regard ing ascertained htness in the selection of government employes. These considerations alone are sufficient justification for an honest aunerence to the letter and spirit of civil ser vice reform. There are, however, other fea ture 01 tins plan which abundantly com mend it. 1 hrough its operation worthy merit in every station and condition of American life is recognized in the distribu- lion ol public employment, while its anuliea. tion tends to raise the standard of political activity from spoils hunting and unthinking Pny amiiauon to the udvocacy of party piiucipies oy reason and argument. The American people ore generous and Kiuicim, nu mey nave impressed these characteristics upon their lwemnuni Therefore, all patriotic ami just citizens must commend liberal consideration for our worthy veteran soldiers and fur ihe families ol those who have died. No complaint should be made of the amount of public money paid to those actually disabled or made dependent by reason ot army service. SHOULD BE A ROLL OF HONOR. But our pension roll should be a roll of honor, uncontaminated by ill-desert and un vitiated by demagogic use. This (is tlue to those whose worthy names nduru the rjll, and to all our people who delight to honor the brave and the true. It is also due to those who in )tai to come should be allowed to hear, reverently and lovingly, the siory of American patriotism and lortitude, illus trated bv our pension roll. The preferences accorded to veteran soldiers in public em ployment should be secured to them honestly and without evasion, nnd when capable ond worthy their claim to the helpful rcgaid and gratitude of their countrymen should be un grudgingly acknowledged. The assurances to the people of ihe utmost individual liberty consistent with peace ami good order, is a cardinal principle of our government. This gives no sanction to vexa tious sumptuary laws which unnecessarily interfere with such habits and customs ol our people as are not offensive to a ju:.t moral sense and are not inconsistent with good citizenship nnd the public welfare. The same principle requires that the line between the subjects which are properly within covern- meiual control and those which are more fittingly left to parental regulation should be carefully kept in view. An enforced educa tion, wisely deemed a proper preparation for citizenship, should not involve the impair ment of wholesome 1 arental aulhoiLv nor do violence to the household conscience. Pa ternalism in government finds no ap; rcval in the creed of Demociacv. It is a svinoium of misrule, whether it is mnnifcs.t-d' in un authorized gifts or I y un unwarranted co::- irul 01 personal anil la inly nllatrs. me uuun ui me government tramples on the T1IR Ol'F.STION OF IMMIGRATION. Our people, still cherishing the feeling of human fellowship which belonged to our be ginning r.s a nation, require their govern ment to express for them their sympathy with nil those who ate oppressed under any rule less free than ours. A generous hosiiitatilty, w hich is one of the most prominent of our national characteris tics, prompts us to welcome the worthy and industrious of all lands to homes and citi zenship among us. This hospitnble senti ment is not violated, however, by careful and reasonable regulations for the protection of the public health, nor doe it jnstify the reception of immigrants who have no appre ciation of our institutions and whose pre sence among us is a menace to peace and good order. The importance of the construction of the Nicaragua Ship Canal as a means of promot ing commerce between our States and with foreign countries, and also as a contribution by Americans to the enterprises which ad vance the interests of the world of civiliia Don, should commend the project to govern mem approval ami indorsement Our countrymen not only expect from those who represent them in public places sedulous care for the thincs which are d rectly and palpably related to their material interests, but they also fully appreciate the value ot cultivating our national pride and maintaining our national honor. Both their material interests and their national pride and honor are involved in the success of the Columbian Exposition, and they will not be inclined to condone any neglect of ellort on the part ol their Government to in sure in the grandeur of this event fitting ex hibit of American growth and greatness and a apicnuiu demonstration ol American triutism. pa SOME TERSOSAL REMARKS.

Yours very truly, Grover Cleveland. Ghat Gables, September at), 18W. MoClura Answen KcSinlej. Last week I nday ntght Governor McKinley spoke at the Philadelphia Academy of Music ostensibly at the invitation 01 tne Manufacturers' Club. He discussed the tariff from the re publican stand point as exemplified in the McKinley tariff bill. On Monday night Col. A. K. McClure answered Major McKinlev. and when he got through there was nothing lift of McKinley or his bill. Col McClure'i speech is long, but convincing and entertaining throughout. Here Is a brief extract. "There were good reasons why Mr, AlcMnley could not be Dermitted to open the Pandora box of tariff taxes in Philadelphia and before the Manufac tures Ciub. They had contracted by purchase for increased taxes upon the people, and McKinley, as Chairman of Ways and Means, was made the auditor to apportion the tariff-tax rai ment of the people among its pur chasers. Laughter. President Dolan lit up his exquisite college- p-iuicMor iace witn us most lascinat ing sinne as he planked down his $10,000 to help Quay get an honest election in New York in 1S88 (Shouts of laughter), and he made his fellow woolen manufacturers follow his ex ample. He promptly appeared be- lorc.vuciicor juctviniey when sitting for distribution of the plunder, and was awarded the increased taxes on woolen he demanded. He had paid lui tosii iur 11, ana McKinley lik an nonest Auditor, gave him what he naa paid tor. Laughter. Mr. Dob son cheerfully gave his $10,000 to nciy vuay purny elections, and he ana rus tellow carpet contributors pieanea their contract before Auditor McKinley and were awarded their ciaim. Laughter Th Harrisons, the Spreckels and the Knights chip ped in with their thousands and Auditor McKinley gave them free rav s'igar and continued the tax on refined sugar. All have since sold out to the Sugar Trust because A udi tor McKinley protected it, and Spreckels waved us a grateful fare well as he shook t':e dust of Philadel phia from his feet and hastened to ward the setting sun with three mill ions or so as his award. Ex-Mayor Filler gave his elegant John Hancock signature to his iio.ooo rhprt make sure that Quay could maintain the integrity ot the ballot (laughter), as did Mr. Disston. and Jeff Davis only asked to be let alone Shouts of lauchter.l The In of the farms were murmuring against high taxes on binder twin:? anl American mechanics were inrlinH to revolt against paying more for Disston s saw and tools than forct-m mechanics pay for them, and Auditor McKinley awarded them whit b., had paid for. He did shave v-tui down a little (!anhter), but the West rrn hayseeds Ltcame so obstreperous that he haJ to bend or l e broken, and binding twine was lowered. The on ly contract that Auditor McKinley had to reject was that of the Cattle Trust, headed by Armour, of Chicago. It had paid in heavily to back Quay in his battle for pure politics (laughter) and was promised a tax on hides that would have given the monopoly a clear 1250,000 per year while the people paid the piper. Auditor McKinley recognized the claim as clearly just and he put it in his bill; but while our Philadelphia Congressmen were dumb as oysters although representing the largest shoe industry in the woild Massachusetts and other New England Representaives served notice on Auditor McKinley that they would knock his whole tariff to 'kingdom come if he did not strike out the tax on hides. Laughter. He struck it out, as he is an obliging man and amiable gentleman, but when the rep resentatives of the Cattle Trust came and said: "We paid for this in cold cash, and we'er going to get it, see!" (laughter) Auditor McKinley prompt ly restored the tax on hides. Again New England revolted, and again he struck it out, and he was finally com pelled much against his stubborn sense of justice, to report his final distribution of tariff tax favors to contract purchasers with the Cattle Trust claims-ejected. Applause. The McKinley tariff was thus made chiefly a jumble of contract taxes upon the people for the benefit of contributors to political debauchery, and it is not surprising that the contractors muz zled their champion when there was danger to their cause. Applause. WABBLEf GTON LETTEB Washington, Sept. 26, iSoa. Who will Mr. Harrison name to take his place as Czar of the republi can campaign machine? is a question that is daily becoming more import ant to republicans. The condition of Mrs. Harrison is such that Mr. Harrison will not leave her lonrr enough to hear and familiarize him self with the reports of those who have come here to inform him of the peril ous condition of his campaign and to receive his orders, and there is little prospect of Mrs Harrison becomim: well enough to permit him to resume control of the campaign. He has so far absolutely refused to talk politics with those who have tried to imnress upon him the necessity for an im mediate delegation of his power to some one else. Steve Elkins has been sent for and he will try to cet Mr. Harrison to name a new boss, and it is oossihle. indeed, woald be probable, that Elkins would be the man if it were not that Mr. Harrison has always regarded Elkins as being tarred with the Blaine stick, and feared to trust him in matters affecting his own political weitare. He may have to do so now. There is no other member of tn cabinet, excepting Charlie Foster, who nas sunicient political sacacitv and experience to do the work; so, unless he goes outside of the cabinet, one of tnese two men will probablv be se lected to wear the republican crown during the remainder of the cam paign. General disappointment has taken command of the republicans here abouts. The first disappointment was caused by the Hat failure tn make the G. A. R. encampment a republican campaign gathering, and by the upsetting of all the plans that had been made with that end in view. Vice President Morton was an. proached and asked to lend his aid to carrying out those plans; he positive ly refused, and also informed those who broached the subiect that if anv attempt was made to bring politics in to the encampment he would at once return to New York. It mattered not whether Mr. Morto.i acted as he telt about this or was actuated hv feeling of revenge and a desire to "get even" with those who kent bim out of the Vice-President nomination at Minneapolis; it is enough to know that he helped to disarrange plans that would have been a disgrace both 10 me administration and to the G. A. R. had they Keen carrie.l nut Another disappointment, and a big one it is too, is that caused by the know ledge that Senator Hill has gone actively to work to help carrv New i ork for Cleveland and StevenKrm just as those who know him best have maintained that he would at the proper time. Great was the success nf h r. a R. encampment, in toint of attend." ance and in the enjoyment of the en ormous crowd of visitors, it did not escape the baleful shadow of the few things in tlu'a Pan n 1 n do. Jt has just leaked out that the re ception in the rotunda of the Canital which Concress bv ..triai act authorized Mr?. Gen. Logan and her lady associates to hold, and whirh so mysterously came to an end al- most hetore it had fairlv eot starts P was spoilt bv the shadow cf the "nigger". It was stated at the tune that the doors were closed in the faces of the thousands standing in line waiting their turn to pass through the rotunda, and reiterated in the local piperjnext day, that Mrs. Logan and her l.iuy assistants had be enme so fatigued that ly impossible to continue the recent'- 1 Children Crvfm Pitcher's Castorla. ion. The ladies mny have quite as nenr prostrated as they ed the public to telieve they hctn wish. erc, out 11 was not caused by 1 110 fa tier fitiinmiii iu biiukc nanus uith ,u who got in before the doors were CU cd. Among those who accepted in vitattons to assist Mrs. Logan in r ceiving were the wives of three caht net officials and a number of la,ii,.i prominent in the social circles 0f Washington, while a number of younir army officials volunteered to make the presentations. When they arrived at the Capitol and proceeded to the ro tunda they were surprised, and some of them shocked, to find that one of the receiving party was a "nigger" the wife of ex Senator Bruce. There was immediate rumpus, and as it could not be quieted, some of the ladiej refusing to stand with her Rnd ome of the officials refusing to make pre. sentations to her, the reception was' brought to a close at the earliest possible moment, and to avoid a scandal during the encampment the story about the ladies being so much prostra'ed as to be unable to continue it was conceived and given out. Mrs. Ix)gan has not improved her social status by inviting Uruce's wife 10 assist ner at that reception, has she heard the last of it. nor WllUe Ttllbrook Sou of EVSayor Tillbrook ot McKeesport, Ta., had a Scrofula buncti und -r one ear which the plijraicaii lanced and thou it became a running aore, and was folIoweJ bj erynlpehu.
