Mentor, O., July 13, 1 a. m.
General'Garfield has forwarded the
following letter of acceptance of the
nomination tendered him by the re
publican national convention to Sen
ator Hoar, of Massachusetts :
Mentor, O., July 10, 1880.
Dear Sir : On the e eening of the
8th of June laet, I had the honor to
receive from you in the presence of
the committee, of which you were
chairman, the official announcement
that the republican national conven
tion at Chicago had that day nomi
nated me as their candidate for
president of the United States. I
accept tbo nomination with grati
tude for the confidence it implies
and with a deep sense of the respon
sibilities it imposes. I cordially en
dorse the principles sot forth in the
platform adopted by the convention.
Of nearly all of the subjects on
which it treats my opinions are on
record among the published pro
ceedings of congress. I will ven
ture, however, to make special men
tion of some of the principal topics
which are likely to become subjects
of discussion. Without recurring
to the controversy which 'has been
settled during the last 20 years, and
with no purpose or wish to revive
the passions of the late war, it should
be said that while the republicans
fully recognize and will strenuously
defend all the rights reserved to the
states, they reject the pernicious
doctrine of state supremacy which
so long crippled the functions of the
national government and at one
time brought the union very near
to destruction. They insist that the
United States is a nation, with am
ple powers of self-preservation ; that
Its constitution and the laws, made
in pursuance thereof, are the su-.
preme law of the land; that the
right of the nation to determine the
method by which its own legislature
shall be created cannot be surren
dered without abdicating one of the
fundamental powers of government;
that the national laws relating to the
election of representatives in con
gress shall neither be violated or
evaded; that every elector should
be permitted freely and without in
timidation to cast his lawful vote at
such an election and have it honest
ly counted, so that the potency of
his vote shall not be destroyed by
the fraudulent vote of any other
person. The. best thoughts and en
ergies of our people should be di
rected to those great questions of
national well-being in which all
have a common interest. Such ef
forts will soonest restore to perfoct
peace those who were lately in arms
against each other, for justice and
good will are our last possessions.
But it is certain that the wounds of
the war cannot be completely healed
and the spirit of brotherhood cannot
fully pervade the whole country
until every citizen, rich or poor,
white or black, is securo in the free
and equal enjoyment of every civil
and political right guaranteed by
the constitution and the laws.
"Wherever the eujoyment of these
rights is not assured discontent will
prevail, immigration will cease and
the soil and industrial forces will
continue to be disturbed by the mi
gration of laborers and the conse
quent diminution of prosperity.
The national government should
exercise all its constitutional au
thority to put out these evils, for all
the people and all the states are
members of one body, and no man
can suffer without injury to all.
The most serious evils which now
afflict the south arise from the fact
that there is not such freedom and
toleration of political opinion and
action, so that the minority party
can exercise effective and whole
some restraint on the party in pow
er. "Without such restraint party
rule becomes tyrranical and corrupt.
The prosperity which is made pos
sible in the south by its great ad-1
vantages of soil and climate will
never bo realized until every voter
can freely and safely support any
.party he pleases. Next in import
ance to freedom and justice is the
popular election, without which
neither justice nor freedom can be
permanently maintained, unless its
interests are intrusted to the states
and the voluntary action of the
people. "Whatever help the nation
can justly afford should be gener
ously given to aid the states in' sup
porting the common schools; but it
would be unjust to our people and
dangerous to our institutions to
apply any portion of the resources
of the nation or the states for tup
port of sectional schools. The sep
aration of the ehuroh and the state
ia everything relating to taxation
should be absolute. On the subject
of the national finances my views
, have been so frequently and fully
expressed that little is needed in the
way of additional statement The
public debt is now so well secured,
and the rate of annual Interest has
been reduced by refunding, that
rigid economy in expenditures and
the faithful application of our snr-"
plus revenues to the payment of the
principal of the debt will gradually
and certainly free the people from
its burden and close with honor the
financial chapter of the war. At the
same time the government can pro
vide for alltordinary expenditures
and discharge it" sacred obligations
to the soldiers of the Union and to
the widows and orphans of those
who fell in its defense. The re
sumption of specie payment, which
the republican party so courageous
ly and successfully accomplished,
has removed .from the field of con
troversy many questions that long
andseriouely disturbed the credit of
the government and business of the
country. Our paper currency is
now as national as the flag, and re?
sumption has not only made it
everywhere equal to -coin, but has
brought into use our store of gold
aad silver. The circulating medium
is more abundant than ever before,
we need only to maintain the equalV
ity of our dollars to insure to labor
and capital a aieaenre ot value from
the use or which" hone can suffer
loss. The great prosperity which
the country is now enjoying should
not be endangered by some violent
changes of doubtful financial ex-
' periments. .
nIn reference to our-costom lawst
'policy "Bhonld' bfe pursued which'
will bring revenue to the treasury
nd will enable labor and capital
employed in our great industries
compete fairly in our own markets
with the labor and foreign produ
cers. Wo labor for the people of
the United States not for the whole
world and it is our glory that the
American laborer is more intelli
gent and better paid than his foreign
competitor. But the country must
be independent unless its people
with their abundant natural resour
ces, produce the requisite skill in
war time to clothe, arm and equip
themselves for war, and in times of
peace produce all the necessary im
plements of labor. It was the man
ifest intention of the founders of
our government to provide for the
common defense, not by standing
armies alone, but by raising among
the people a greater array of arti
sanB, whose intelligence and skill
should powerfully contribute to the
safety and glory of the nation. For
tunately for the interests of com
merce, there is no longer any for
midable opposition to appropriations
for improvements of our harbors
and great navigable rivers, provided
that the expenditures for ihat pur
pose are strictly limited to works of
national importance. The Missis
sippi river, with its great tributa
ries, is of such vital importance to
so many millions of people that the
safety of its navigation requireg-ex-ceptional
consideration, in order to
secure to the nation the control" of
all its waters. President Jefferson
negotiated the purchase of a vast
territory extending from the Gulf
of Mexico to the Pacific ooean. The
wisdom of congress should be in
voked to devise some plan by which
that great river shall cease to be a
terror to those who dwell upon its
banks, and by which its shipping
may safely carry the industrial pro
ducts of twenty-five millions of
people. The interests of agricul
ture, which is the basis of all our
material prosperity, and in which
seven-twelfths of our population is
engaged, as well as the interests of
manufacturers and commerce de
mand that the facilities for cheap
transportation shall be increased by
the use of all our great water
courses. The material interests of
our country, the traditions of its
settlement and the sentiments of oor
people led the government to offer
the widest hospitality to emigrants
who seek our shores for new aud
happier homes, billing to share the
burdeus as well as the benefits of
our society and intending that their
posterity shall become an undistin
guishable part of our population.
The recent movement of the Chinese
to our Pacific coast partakes but
little of the qualities of such an
emigration either in its purpose or
its results. It is too much like an
importation to be welcomed with
out restrictions; too much like an
invasion to be looked upon without
solicitude. "We cannot consent to
allow any form of servile labor to
be introduced among us under the
guise of immigration. Recognizing
the gravity of this subject, the pres
ent administration, supported by
congress, has sent to China a com
mission of distinguished citizens for
the purpose of securing such moder
ation of the treaty as will prevent
the evils likely to arise from the
present situation. It is confidently
believed that these negotiations will
be successful without the lost of
commercial intercourse between the
two powers which promises great
increase of reciprocal trade and the
enlargement of our markets. Should
these efforts fail it will be the duty
of congress to mitigate the evils
already felt and prevent their in
crease by such restrictions as with
out violence will place on a proud
foundation the freedom and dignity
of labor. The appointment of citi
zens to th6 various executive and
judicial ofliceB of the government is
perhaps the most difficult of all the
duties which the constitution has
imposed upon the executive. The
constitution wisely demands that
congress shall co-operate with the
executive departments in placing the
civil service on a better basis. Ex
perience has proved that with our
frequent changes of administration
no system of reform can be made
effective and permanent without the
aid of legislation Appointments
to the military and naval service are
so regulated by law and customs-as
to leave little ground for complaint.
It may not be worse to make similar
regulations in civil service, but
without invading the authority or
the necessary discretion of the ex
ecutive, congress should devise a
method that would devise the tenure
of office and greatly reduce the un
certainty which made that service
so uncertain and unsatisfactory
without depriving any officer of his
rights as a citizen. The government
should require him to discharge all
his official duties with intelligence,
efficiency and faithfulness. To se
lect wisely from our vast population
those who are best fitted for the
many offices to be filled requires an
acquaintance far beyond the range
of any one man. The executive
should therefore seek and receive
the information and assistance of
those whose knowledge of the com
munities in which the duties are to
be performed best qualifies them,
to aid them In taking the wisest
choice.
The doctrines announced by the
Chicago convention are not the
temporary devices of a party to at
tract votes and carry an election.
They are deliberated convictions
resulting from a careful study of the
spirit of our institutions, the course
of our history, and' the best impulses
of our people. In my judgment
these principles should control the
legislation and administration of the
government. In any event they will
guide my conduct until experience
points a better way. If elected, it
willbe my purpose to enforce strict
obedience to the constitution and
the laws, and to promote, as best I
may, the interest and honor of the
whole country, relying for support
upon the. Wisdom of congress, the
intelligeace and patriotism of the
people aBcNbe favor of God.

The Way the Repabllcaa
Party Knitted the Coaatrj'.
The Democratic orators and edit
ors are trying to make out that the
Republicans have ruined the coun
try. Yes ; and this is the way it was
done :
In 1860 after twenty years of Dem
ocratic rule, a Government six per
cent bond sold for eighty nine cents.
In 1880, after twenty years of Re
publican rule, a Government four
per cent bond sells for $1.08.
In 1860, after twenty years of Dem
ocratic rule, a loan of $18,000,000 ex
hausted the market for six months.
At the end of twenty years of Re
publican rule a loan of $150,000,000
was taken in a single day.
In twenty years of Republican
rule we find:
An increase of population of fifty
per cent.
An increase of general agricultu
ral exports of 600 per cent.
An increase in exports of bread
and breadstuffs of 650 per cent.
An increase of exports of manu
factured articles of 225 per cent.
An increase of internal commerce
of 700 per cent.
An increase of railway mileage of
187 per cent.
Ia 1860, after twenty years of Dem
ocratic rule, Congress authorized a
loan of $25,000,000 to pay current ex
penses. In 1880, after twenty years of Re
publican rule, the Secretary of the
Treasury pays "$85,000,000 of debt
contracted for a war brought on by
a solid Democratic South, which
now wants power again so as to stop
the waving of that bloody shirt, the
wearing of which Is Hancock's chief
glory and hi whole available stock
as a candidate for the Presidency.
In 1860,after twenty years of Dem
ocratic rule the balance of trade
against the country was over $20,
000,000. On May 31, 1880, after twenty
years of Republican rule the balance
of trade was over $162,000,000 in fa
vor of this country.
In 1860,after twenty years of Dem
ocratic rule and teaching, there was
very serious question whether we
had any Nation, and the old pubMic
functionary in the White -Uoubp,
whoso chief adviser was Jere Black,
the man who now furnishes the
statesmanship for General Hancock,
announced that there was "no power
Iu the Government to coerce a State,"
leaving the inference that Jeff Davis
and Alec Stephens could send the
country to the domnition bow wows
for all he could do to prevent it.
After twenty years of Republican
rule there is no doubt that we have
a country, and Alec Stephens and
Jere Black would give all they are
worth to have the people forget that
they ever questioned it.
The kind of ruin which five suc
cessive Republican Administrations
have inflicted upon the country is
just a little striking in v;ew of the
figures and the people like it and
call for more of the same sort, aud
arc bound to have it, too. JTw

What have Democrats DoaeV
The nineteen years since the be
ginning of the war have been fruit
ful of imperishable achievements by
the Republican party. And these
years have tendered great opportu
nities to the Democracy. How has
it used those opportunities? "What
have the Democrats done for this
country?
"What did they do as a party to
suppress the rebellion?
"What did they do to preserve the
Union?
"What did they do to emancipate
.the slave?
"What did tbey do to protect the
liberties and lives of loyal men in the
South?
"What did they do to prevent the
Sonth from re-enslaving the blacks?
"What did they do to bring the
South into harmony with the Con
stitution and the Union ?
"What did they do to secure the
passage of the anti-slavery amend
ment to the Constitution ?
"What did they do for civil rights?
"What did they do to suppress the
"ku-klux?"
"What did they do to suppress the
"white liners" of the South?
"Wh'at did they do to prevent the
scourging, outraging aud murder of
black and white loyal men in the
South ?
What have they done for a pure
and free ballot?
"What have they done for free
speech ?
"What have they done for a free
press?
"What haye they done to enforce
the laws in the South ?
"What have they done to enforce
the collection of the public revenue
in the South.
"What have they done to preserve
the fruits of war?
"What have they done to preserve
the credit of the Government?
"What have they done to prevent
inflation?
"What have they done to promote
resumption ?
"What have they done for an hon
est currency ?
"What have they done for an hon
est dollar?
What have they done for the pro
tection of American industry?
In all these years, with all their
golden opportunities, what has the
Democratic party done to inspire
ibe'eonfidence of the American peo
ple? Let every voter ask himself these
questions. The record of the party
gives back for anBWer only utter and
shameful barrenness. They haye
done nothing. On the contrary they
have done much to hinder, obstruct,
prevent and, nullify. These things
voters will remember, and that re
membrance must again cover the
Democracy with disaster. Detroit

Davton, July 23. Charles Darby,
of North Mississippi, pas.sed through
here on the" D. & M. railway for
Toledo this evening to visit relatives
on the lake shore. Darby was born
in the vicinity of Corinth, and has
lived there nearly his whole life
sixty-two years. He says that there
has never been a free olection in
this regipn since the war that is,
since Andy Johnson and General
Hancock began the work of "recon
struction" in the south. No man
white or black--in the region where
Darby resides, dare vote a republi
can ticket. He says no one will
deny that in Mississippi, andthe
democracy down there brag of it,
'and are proud of ft. Darby insists
that the south would not be solid if
everybody could vote as they desire.
He thinks the constitutional amend
ments are mockeries, and that the
boast that this is a free country is
hollow, when there are hundreds of
thousands of citizens in this country
who will not be permitted to vote as
they desire. He thinks the "Wash
iugton government should rectify
this disgraceful.state of affairs in the
south, or take down its sign ot
"Freedom." There is no slavery in
name in the south, but Darby says
and he asserts that proof can be ob
tained by thousands that practically
slavery is a thousand times more
odious iu Mississippi and the south
than before the war. The demo
cratic party, Dnrby says, is the only
party permitted to live down there,
aud the shotgun is the argument to
keep the democracy in power. This
would be a pretty country all over
if Hancock should happen to be
elected.
rVaace IVoiuInated, and Why.
Gov. Nance has given us a strong
state government, and eighteen
months of his administration have
more than fulfilled the predictions
that we made in regard to his suc
cess. He has made a brilliant record.
Nebraska needed a man of iron will,
of broad views and of strong com
mon sense, and all of these we have
in Gov. Nance. He has exhibited
no weak sympathy for criminals, but
is not deaf to meritorious appeals
for mercy. Now it is known at
home and abroad that criminals are
punished iu Nebraska. Once it was
not so and our state was overrun by
lawless men. The splendid record
made by the governor in dealing
with the strikers at Omaha, and the
practical manner in which he settled
the difficulties that threatened the
peace and safety of the city won the
admiration of all friends of law and
order. His more recent action in
regard to the insurance fees collect
ed by the auditor will meet hearty
popular approval. For the reasons
above stated'and others that might
be given, and because we believe he
is in every respect worthy of the
high honor, we gladly concur with
our exchanges in asking that our
"Model Governor" be placed at the
head of the state ticket for re-election,
and hope he may be nominated
by acclamation, an endorsement that
he has fairly earned. Osceola Home

The Small Boy' Might.
A Kansas judge presents his view
of the rights of small boys in the
following, which forms a portion of
his judicial decision. "Everybody
knows that by nature and by in
stinct boys love to ride, and love to
move by other means than their own
locomotion. They will cling to the
hind euds of moving wagons, ride
upon swings and swinging gates,
slide upon cellar doors and the rails
of staircases, pull sleds up hill iu
order to ride down upon them on
the snow, and even pay to ride upon
imitation horses and imitation char
iots swung around in a circle by
steam or horae power. This last is
very much like riding around iu a
circle upon a turntable. Now ev
erybody, knowing the nature and
the instincts common to all boys,
must act accordingly. No person
has a right to leave, even on bis own
land, dangerous machinery calcula
ted to attract and entice boys to it,
there to be injured, unless he first
takes proper steps to guard against
all danger; aud any person who
thus doeB leave dangerous machin
ery exposed, without first provid
ing against all danger, is guilty of
negligence."

Be on the right side and yon will
always prosper.
Chairman Jewell has announced
his plan for the campaign. Every
Republican will acknowledge its
wisdom and high rank and will fall
in line to help carry it out. In sub
stance it is as follows :
The goueral plau of the campaign
as it is to be conducted by the Re
publican party will be fought under
the general record and traditions of
the Republican party. It will be
bold, vigilant and aggressive, and
conducted upon that high plane
which benefits both the spotless
character of its candidate and the
inestimable value of its services to
humanity and the country. If there
be any mud slinging it must come
from the other side. This in ac
cordance with Gen. Garfield's wish
and consistent with the character of
the party. As we have been the
conservator of the morals it is
equally necessary that we should
preserve the good manners of the
country. The cause is just, the re
sources of the party great, and its
prospects of success too bright to
admit a doubt of its triumph in No
vember. "We will not taruish the
brilliancy of our success, nor lower
the high tone of our party record by
descending to the weapons whose
use netter bents weakness and
defeat. The campaign on our side
then, will be conducted in a manner
both to extort the fear and respect
of the enemy.
Earnest effort will be made in
West Virginia, North and. South
Carolina and Florida to obtain as
fair au olection as possible. If we
cau only approximate fairners in tbe
casting or counting of ballots in
these states, their electoral yote for
Garfield is beyond a doubt. It
seems to me that a little effort on
the part of the committee could gain
enough members of congress to
mako the next houso Republican.
The committee will leave Connecti
cut, New Jersey and Indiana to the
care of the local authorities in those
states, because the legislature in each
to be elected this fall will choose a
United States senator and a full
vote is always polled under such
circumstances. The polling of a full
vote in these states is a synouym for
Republican suceens. The committee
will pay especial attention to New
York and Virginia. C. C. Globe.
Temper at Home.
I have peeped into quiet ''parlors"
where the carpet ia clean and not
old, and the furniture polished and
bright; into "roonH" where the
chairs are. deal and the floor carpet
less ; Into "kitchens" where the fam
ily live, anil the meals are cooked
and eaten, and the boys and girls
are as blithe a8 sparrows iu the
thatch overhead. And I see that it
is not so much wealth, nor learning,
nor clothing, nor servants, nor toil,
nor idleness, nor town, nor country,
nor rank, nor station as tone and
temper that make life joyous or
miserable, that render home happy
or wretched. And I pee, too, that in
town or country God's grare and
good sense make life what no teach
ers, or accomplishments, or means,
or society cau make it the opening
stave of an everlasting psalm, the
fair beginning of an endless exist
ence, the goodly, modest, well pro
portioned vestibule to a temple of
God's building, that shall never
decay, wax old or vanish away.

change wrought in that face, once so

then, too, when we take upon our

beautiful reflections of her early self
as we kiss their pretty lips and

they also are subjects of change!
