INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., 8pt 11. HOB. M.
M. Estee and ethers, oemmlttee Gentle
men t When your committee visited me
en the Fourth et July iMt and pteeetited
tbe official announcement of my nomina
tion ter tbe presldeney et tbe United
Statec by the Republican convention, I
premised aa aoen aa praotleable te commu
nicate te yen a mere formal acceptance of
tbe nomination. Since that time the work
et reeelvlng and add rowing almost dally
large delegations of my fellew-eltlzMie haa
net only oeonpled all of my timer bat baa
In aeme meaiure rendered It nnneeeaaary
ferme te nae this letter as a medium of
communicating te tbe pablle my views
npontbe questlena Involved in tbe cam
paign. I appreciate very highly tbe oenfl.
deneeand respeet manifested by the con
vention, and accept tbe nomination with a
feeling of gratitude and a full sen be of the
responsibilities which acoempany It.
It Is a matter of congratulation that tbe
declarations of the Chicago convention upon
the questions that new attract the Interest
of our people are ae clear and emphatic.
There Is further cause of congratulation In
the faet that the convention utterances of
the Democratic party, if In any degree un
eertatn or contradictory, can new be Judged
and Interpreted by executive acta and mea
aagee, and by definite prepositions or legis
lation. This Is especially trne of what la
popularly known aa the tariff question.
The Issue cannot new be obscured. It la
net a contest between schedules, but be
tween wldeapart prlnelplea. Tbe foreign
competitors of our market have, with quick
Inetlnet, seen hew one Issue of th'a oenteet
may bring them advantage, and our own
people are net ae dull as te miss or negleet
the interests tbat are involved for them.
The assanlt upon our protective system it
open and defiant. Protection ia assailed as
unconstitutional In law, or aa vloieus in
principle, and these who held snch vlewa
alneerely cannot atop abort of an absolute
elimination from our tariff lawa et the
principle of protection. The Mills bill la
only a step, but It Is toward an object tbat
the leadera of Democratic thought and
legislation bave clearly In mind. The
important question Is net se much the
length et the step as the direction of lb
WHAT THE DKM00BATI0 TARTY WILL 1J0.
Judged by the executive message of
Deoemeer last, by tbe Mills bill, by tbe
debatea In Cengrats and by the St Louts
platform, the Democratic party, If supported
by the country, place tbe tarlfl lawa upon a
purely revenue basis. This la practical free
trade free trade in the English sense.
The legend upon the banner may net be
"free trade," It may be tbe mere obscure
motto, " tariff reform ;" but neither tbe
banner nor tbe Inscription Is oenoluslve, or,
Indeed, very Important. Toe asaault luelf
la tbe Important fact.
These who teach tbat tbe Impert duty
upon lerelgn goods aeld In our market la
paid by the oensnmer, and that tbe price of.
the domestto oempetlng artlele la enbaneed
te tbe amount et the duty en the Imported
artlele tbat every million et dollars col cel col
leeted for customs duties represents many
millions mere which de net reach the treas
ury, but are paid by our clttzena aa the
Increased cost et domestle produettona re
aulting from tbe tariff la wm may net Intend
te discredit in the mlnda et ethera our sya
tern of levying duties en competing foreign
products, but it Is clearly already discred
ited in their own. We cannot doubt,
without impugning their Integrity, tbat if
tree te aet upon their convictions, they
would ae revise our laws as te lay tbe bur
den of tbe customs revenue upon articles
tbat are net produced in tbla country, and
te place upon the free list all competing
foreign produeta.
I de net step te refute this theory as te
the effect of our tariff dutles. These who
advanee It are students et maxima and net
of the markets. Tbey may be safely al
lowed te call tbelr project "tariff reform"
it tbe people understaud tbat In tbe end the
argument oempola free trade In all oom eom oem
petlng produeta. This end may net be
reached abruptly, and Its approach may be
accompanied with some expressions of
sympathy ter our prnteeted Industries and
our working people, but It will certainly
come if tbene early etf ps de net arouse tile
people te effeotlve roilstanec.
Tne Republican parly bold tbat a protec
tive tariff Is constitutional, wholesome and
neeeaaary. We de net offers fixed aebedule,
bnt a principle. We will revise tbe
schedule, modify rates, but always with an
intelligent prevision as te tbe effect upon
domestle production and the wageaef our
working people. We belle ve it te be one
et the worthy objects of tariff legislation te
preserve the American market for Ameri
can producers,and te maintain by adequate
discriminating dutlea upon foreign oom eom oem
petlng produeta. Tbe effect of lower rates
and larger Importations upon tbe public
revenue Is oentinsent and doubtful, but
net ae the effect upon American
production and American wagea.
Lea work and lower wagea must be ac
cepted aa the Inevitable result of the in
creased offering et foreign goods In our
market. Byway et recompense for this
reduotten in hts wages, and the low of
the American market,lt Is suggested that tbe
diminished wsges of the worklngmen will
have an undiminished purchasing power,
and that he will ba able te make up for tbe
leaa et the home market by an enlarged
foreign market Our werklngtnen have
the settlement of the question In their own
hands. They new obtain higher wagea
and live mere comfortably than these of
any ether country. They will make choice
between the substantial advantages they
have In band and the deceptive premisee
and forecasts of these theorizing reformers,
They will deolde for themselves and for
tbe country whether tbe protective aystem
shall be continued or destroyed. ,,
TUB TltKASURY SURPLUS,
The faet of a treasury surplus, tbe amount
of which Is variously stated, haa directed
public attention te a consideration of tbe
methods by whleh tbe national Income
may beat be reduced te tbe level of a wise
and necessary expenditure. This condition
baa been seized upon by these who are
hostile te protective custom duties aa an
advantageous base of attaek upon our tariff
lawa. Tbey have magnified and nursed
tbe surplus which they aBeet te deprecate,
Beamingly for the purpose of exaggerating
the evil In order te rtconelle the people te
the extreme remedy they propose. A
proper rednotten of tbe revenue does net
necessitate and should net suggest tbe
abandonment or Impairment of the protec
tive aystem. Tbe methods suggested by
our oenventlon will net need te be ex
hausted In order te effect tbe necessary
reduction. We are net likely te be
called upon, I think, te make a
present nbolee between tbe surrender
of our oretectlve avstem and tbe en
tire repeal of tbe Internal taxes. Bnch
a contingency, in view of the present rela
tion of expenditures te revenue Is remote.
The inspection and regulation of tbe
manufacture and sale of oleomargarine la
important, and tbe revenue derived from It
ia net ae great that the repeal of the law
need enter into any plan et revenue reduc
tion. The aurplua new In tbe treasury
should be used In tbe purchase of bends.
The law authorizes this use of It, and If It
la net needed for enrrent or deficiency
appropriations, tbe people, and net tbe
banks in whleh it haa been deposited,
should have tbe advantage of its use by
stepping Interest upon tbe public debt At
least these who needlessly heard It should
net be allowed te use tbe fesref a monetary
, trIegencylbus produced te coerce pubile
sentiment upon ether questlena.
Oleselv connected with tbe subject of tbe
tariff la that of tbe Importation of foreign
laberera under een tracts of aervlce te be
performed here. The law new In foree
prohibiting aueh contracts received my
cordial support in tbe Senate, and aueh
amendments aa may be found neeeaaary te
effectively deliver ear werklngtnen and
woman from this meat Inequitable form of
eosBftUUeB will Ufa nay aUeara adTcaeay,
Leglalettesi prehtbMlag Mm Importation et
laborer ander contract te aerve here will,
however, afford vary inadequate relief te
ear working people If the ayatera of pro
tective duties ta broken down. If the pro
duces of AeaerleeaBbopamurteotnpeta la
tbe American market, without favoring
duties, with tee produeta of cheap foreign
labor, the effect will ba different, If at ail,
only in the degree whether tbe cheap
laborer la aereaa the street or ever the sea,
Snch competition will aoen reduea wagea
here te tbe level et Ibeea abroad, and when
tbat condition la reached we will net need
any lawa lerbtddlaR the Importation of
laberera under contract they will have no
Indueement te come, and the employer no
Inducement te aand for them.
In the earlier yeara of ear history pubile
agenclea te promote Immigration ware com
mon. The pioneer wanted a neighbor with
mera friendly inatlneta than the Indian.
Laber waa eearee and fully aaapleyed. Bat
the day of the Immigration bureau haa gene
by. while our doera will continue open te
proper immigration, wa donet need te Issue
special Invitations te the Inhabitanta of
ether oeuntrlea te come te ear eberee or te
Bhareeur elUaanahlp. Indeed, the neces
sity of aeme inspection and limitation la
obvious. We should resolutely refuse te
permit foreign governments te aead their
paupers and orlmlaalate our perta We
ara also dearly under a duty te defend our
olvlllzatlen by excluding alien races wheae
ultimata assimilation with our people ia
neither possible nor desirable. The family
haa been the nuelena of enr best Immigra
tion and the borne the most potent assimil
ating foree in our civilization.
CHINESE IMMIGRATION.
The objections te Chinese immigration
are distinctive and oenoluslve, and are new
ae generally accepted aa such that the quea.
tlen haa passed entirely beyond the stage
of argument The lawa relating te thla
aubjeet would, if I aheuld be charged
with their enforcement, be faithfully exe
cuted. Bueh amendments or further legis
lation aa may be neeeaaary and proper te
prevent evaalena of tbe lawa and te step
.further Chinese immigration would also
meet my approval. The erpreialone" tbe
oenventlon upon this subject Is in entlre
harmony with my vlewa.
Oar civil compaet ia a government by
majorities, and the law loses Its sanction
ana the magistrate our respect when this
compact la broken. Tbe evil results of
election franda de net expend themselvea
upon the. voters who are robbed of their
rlghtfnl lnfluenee in public affair. Tbe
individual, or oemmunlty or party that
praotleea or connives at election franda haa
anflered irreparable injury and will sooner
or later realize that te exchange the Amer
ican system of majority rule for minority
control 1b net only unlawful and unpa
triotic but very unsafe for these who pro
mote It The disfranchisement of a single
legal elector by fraud or Intimidation Itia
crime tee grave te be regarded lightly. The
right of every qualified eleoter te cast one
free ballet and te bave It honestly oennted
must net be questioned. Every constitu
tional power sneuld beused te make tbla
right secure, te punish Irauda upon the
ballet
Oar colored people de net ask epeelal leg
islation In their interest, bnt only te be
made seeure in the common rights of
American citizenship. Tbey will, however,
naturally mistrust the sincerity of tbeaa
party leadera who appeal te their race for
support only In these localities where the
suffrage la Iree and eleotien results doubt
ful, and compass tbelr disfranchisement
where their vetea would be controlling and
their choice cannot be coerced.
The nation, net less tbsn tbe states, la de
pendent for prosperity and aeeurlty upon
the intelligence and morality et tbe people.
Thua common interest very early auggeBted
national aid in tbe establishment an.i u u
dewment et schools and oellegea In lh na
states. There Is, I believe, a present ex
igency that calls for still mere liberal and
dirtet appropriations in aid et common
school education in the states.
The territorial form of government is a
temporary expedient, net a permanent civil
condition. It Is adapted te tbe emergeney
tbat suggested it, but becomes Inadequate
and even oppressive when applied te fixed
and populous communities. Several terri
tories are well able te bear the burdens and
discharge the dutlna et free commonwealths
In the American Union. Te exclude them
la te deny tbe J ust rights of tbelr people and
may well excite tbelr Indignant pretest
Ne question of tbe political preference of
tbe peeple of a territory should olese sgainst
them the hospitable deer which has opened
te two thirds et the existing states. Bat
admission should be absolutely refused te
any territory a majority of whose people
eherlsh Institutions tbat are repugnant te
our olvlllzatlen or Inconsistent with a re
publican form of government.
THE BUBJKOT OP TRUSTS.
The declaration of the convention against
"4ll combinations, or capital organized' in
trust b or etberwlse te control arbitrarily
the condition of trade among ear citizen.,"
la In harmony with the views entertained
and publicly expreeted by me long before
the auembllng of tbe oenventlon. Ordi
narily, capital shares the lesees of ldlenea
with labor ; but under the operation et tbe
trust, in some of Its form, the wage-worker
alone auilera low, while Idle eapltal re
ceives its dividends from a trust fund.
Producers who refuse te Jein the combina
tion are destroyed, and the competition aa
an element of prices la eliminated. It can
not be doubted that tbe legislative authority
aheuld and will find a method of dealing
fairly and effectively with there and ether
abusea connected with thla subject.
It ean hardly be necessary f jr me te say
that I am heartily In sympathy with tbe
declaration of tbe oenventlon upon the
subject of pensions te our soldiers and
Bailers. What tbey gave and what they
Buffered I had Botne opportunity te observe
and, la a small measure, te experience.
They gave una-rud ulnul v : it was net a trade.
but an offering. The meaiure was heaped
up, running ever. What they achieved
only a distant generation can adequately
tell. Without attempting te discuss any
particular prepositions I may add that
measures in behaireftbesurvlvlng veterans
of tbe war and of the families or tbelr dead
comrades should be oenoelved t nd exc euted
In a spirit of lustiee and of tbe most arrate-
fal liberality, and that, In the competition
foreivll appointment, honorable military
lerviee aheuld have appropriate recog
nition. The law regulating appointments te tbe
classified civil service received my auppert
In the Senate in the belief tbat It opened
he way te a much-needed reform. I still
think se, and, therefore, cordially approve
tbe clear and forcible expression of tne con
vention upon this subjeet The law aheuld
bave tbe aid et a friendly Interpretation,
and be faithfully and vlgoreualy enforced.
All appointments under It should besbto besbte
lutely free from partisan conslderatlena and
Influence. Berne extensions of tbe classifi
cation list are praotleable and desirable, and
further legislation extending tbe reform te
ether branebea of tbe service, te whleh It Is
applicable, would receive my approval. In
appointments te every grade and depart
ment, fitness, and net party aervlee, should
be tbe essential and discriminating test,
and fidelity and efficiency tbe only sure
tenure et office. Only the Interest of tbe
pubile aervlee should suggest removals
from office. I knew tbe practical difficul
ties attending the attempt te apply tbe
spirit of tbe elvll aervlee rules te all ap-
peiaimrats ana removals. 11 win, now new
ever, be my sincere purpose, If eleeted, te
advance tbe reform.
I notice with pleasure that the convention
did net emit te expreas Its Bolleltude for tbe
promotion et virtue snd temperanee among
our people. The Republican party has
always been friendly te everything that
tended te make tbe borne life of our people
free, pure and prosperous, and will In the
future be true te Ita history In this respect.
Our relatiene with foreign pewera should
be characterized by friendliness and re re
apeot The right of ear people and of enr
ships te hospitable treatment aheuld be
Insisted upeu with dignity and firmness.
Our nation la tee great, both In material
strength and In moral power, te Indulge In
bluster or te be suspected et tlinoreuines.
Vacillation and Inconsistency are aa Incom
patible with auoeeasful dlplomsey aa tbey
ate with tbe national dignity. We should
especially cultivate and extend our diplo
matic and commercial relatiene with tbe
Central and Meuth American states. Oar
flsheriea aheuld be festered and protected.
The hardahlpa and risk tbat are tbe neoea neeea
aary Incidents of tbe buslneaa should net be
Increased by an Inhospitable exoluslen from
tba near-lying perta. The reaoureea et a

And tbe Paddle Mills of tba Penn Iren Com
pany are Again la Operation.
The Penn Iren oempany atarted np Ita
puddle mill thla morning after a stoppage
et aeveral weeks, during whleh a aet of
three high rolls were put In. Seme Interest
haa been aroused concerning tbe atart
Ing et tha mill, because since It haa
been shut down the local assembly
or tbe Knlgbta of Laber, composed
of these working In the mill, had adopted a
resolution directing Ita men net te resume
work In tbe mill, the reason being that four
puddlera bad been discharged by the
euperlntendent beeanae they had net oeme
out te work when called. They had
aufflelent lnfluenee, apparently, with the
majority of their associates in tbe puddle
mill, te induce them net te work nntll they
were reinstated. And after tha finishing
mtlla shut down, a oeuple of weeka later,
the men employed tbere are also under under under
atoed te have been indueed net te resume
work.
Later, however, a number of the mere
sensible empleyes, who oenld net aee why
they aheuld atop work beeanae four et
their fellewe had been dlaebarged ter a
confessedly proper eauae, even under tbe
Interpretation of the rnlta of tha Knlghta of
Laber order, signed a eall for a meeting of

are understood te have been In a 'large
majority, bat they lacked a few votes
of having the two thlrda needed te reaelnd
the previous action. They reaelvad, hew
ever, te go te work at any rate whrn tha
mill reaumed, and enough puddlera came
out thla morning te man five double
furnaees, and all will be going te-morrow
morning. All tbe hands required en tha

Indications tbat tbla will be done. A rumor

Thla delay is causing many persons te een
elude tbat it is net the purpose of the Re

it ferwaid at all, unleaa compelled te de en
by the exigencies of the eampalgn. It la
Idle te speculste upon what the Repubil
