Whllelasv Hold’s Letter of Accept*
mure.
New York, Oct. 20_Hon. White
law lieid's letter accepting the repub
lican nomination for vice president
has been made publio. It ia addressed
to Hon. W. T. Durbin, Anderson Ind.,
and is dated Ophlr Farm, N. Y., Octo
ber 18, 1892. In it Mr. Reid says:
When the nomination with which
the national convention honored me
was formally announced by your com
mittee I accepted it at once. In so
doing I also accepted the principles
set forth in the resolutions adopted by
the convention as the basis of its ap
peal to popular suffrage. There will
be no misunderstanding as to the pur.
poses of the republican party in this
contest, and no doubt as to the atti
tude of its candidates. Party plat
forms are more important this year
than usual. The declarations of our
opponents demand close scrutiny, as
their victory now would give them the
first opportunity they have had since
1869 to put in ' practice their policy.
Obviously in the common judgment
of the people the really vital issues
this year are those relating to tariff
and currency. Fortunately both sides
have stated'their positions on these
subjects with directness, simplicity and
frankness.
The issues thus made between the
rival candidates are especially sharp
and distinct. We maintain that tariff
should cover the difference in cost of
the borne and foreign product caused
by the difference in home and foreign
wages. Our opponents distinctly re
pudiate the proposition that American
wages should be considered in the
matter and declare instead that a
tariff levied for anything but revenue
only is unconstitutional.
We maintain that the present tariff
has worked well, developed American
manufactures, steadied and increased
American wages and promoted gener
al prosperity. Our opponents deny
all this and denounce the republican
policy, which they say fosters no other
industry so much as that of the sheriff.
Under the protective policy and by
its aid the republic management of our
Qnances resulted in the largest pay
ment of a national debt in the shortest
lime known to history, and in a simul
taneous development of the industries
of the country and prosperity of the
people on a scale without parallel.
Our opponents dpny that there has
been any increase of prosperity; de
clare wages have been reduced and de
nounce our policies. It has been a
fortunate circumstance for an impar
tial public that in the regular course
of official duty a number of democratic
officers have since been required to re
port statistics in several departments
bearing upon the subject. All these
reports tend to show an increase dur
ing 1891 in wages, in value of pro
ducts, in deposits in savings banks or
building and loan associationa and in
value of real and personal property.
These official democratic relations of
democratic denial that the country is
prosperous is confirmed by the person
al experience and observation of the
people at large.
On the subject of the currenoy, the
issue between the republican party
and its opponents is almost as sharply
defined as on the tariff. We demand
that every dollar, paper, silver or gold
shall be made and kept as good as any
other dollar. Our opponent* while
professing the same desii'e, demand
that the national bank currency shall
be broken down by the repeal of the
10 per cent tax. The proposal of our
opponents is to sectionalize it again
and thus return to the state bank sys
tem, under which it was rarely equal
to coin, was often at a ruinous dis
count and often worthless. There is
good reason to hope for some practi
cal union of effort for a common solu
tion of the silver problem with an in
creased use of silver, through the re
newed international silver conference,
which the wise policy of the present
administration has secured from the
leading commercial nations of the
world.
Mr. item. speaking oi tbe alleged
force bill, says it scarcely calls for no
tice. Tbe very title of the bill re
ferred to, he says, proclaimed its ob
ject to be to prevent the use of force
at elections. It failed, anyway, and
the southern white men who were
lately its chief, as they were its most
interested opponents, now begin to
wish it revived to protect them from
being themselves counted out of elec
tions they have fairly won.
Ur. Keid nest refers to the revival
of American shipping and repeats his
adhesion to resolutions of the republi
can national convention as a whole.
On account of the shipping question
he.'fayp the republican party has tpken
'successful steps'to this end; and the
resolutions of its convention only con
firm its devotion te a principle on
which its practice has already been
wise and efficient.

Chicago. Oct. 22.— At 9 o'clock yes
terday the great civic ana military
parade, which was a most magnificent
and imposing display, visitors began
to stroll into tno grounds and by 10
o’clock iluouu people had passed
through tho gates. From this time on
the multitude was augmented by tens
of thousands. As the visitors arrived
the most of them made their way di
rectly to the great dedication build
ing, anxious to obtain desirable seats,
and in a short lime ail of the 00,000.
except those reserved for the distin
guished guests, were occupied by the
early comers.
At 10 o'clock the parade ouiside. in
which 111, UU0 regulars and state mili
itia participated, had already begun,
and it was evident that many thou
sands who were doing it must be con
tent with standing room, and that at
least two-thirds of the visitors to the j
grounds would never get within near- !
ing of the speakers' voices.
Let us endeavor to get an approxi
mate idea of tnis unique sceue. Im
agine thirty great steel arches of a 386
loot span and g;06 feet high covering a
space 1,400 feet long. This, covered
partly with wood, partly with giass,
and surrounding its entire iengtn a
broad gallery with raised seats. Im
agine a great starry banner hung from
the center of each arch, with the clus
tered flags of all nations gathered in
sheaves on the front of the baicony
between each pair of arches. At one
end imagine a great platform tilled
with musicians, vocal aud instrument,
al. In the middie of one side imagine
a great stand with a pulpit light pro
jection in the middle, draped with
white and yellow festoons—this is the
official stand. Imagine it filled with
governors and their resplenaani staffs,
dignitaries of foreign nations with jew
elled, strange but vivid costumes. In
front of this stand upon the main floor
imagine a large railed-off space set
witn tables and occupied by newspauer
men from ail quarters of tho giobe
working furiously, trying to picture
the scene before them. Lack of them
and to the left and right see the great
audience sitting and standing, filling
the immense space until it wili not
bold another human being, until boys
and men lake iioia of tne great steel
arches and clamber through their
braces high up above the heads of the
garnered throng. Imagine depentiin;
from the roof, midway down, stream
ers of yellow, red and white bun tin;
to the sides of the great arches. ]m

draped here and there, while in th
center a carved stone eagie forms in
