General Garfield's Letter of Accept
ance of the Republican
Nomination.
As Able EK;MieBt frm J
elliffeBt Ma.
Mentor, Om July 13, 1 a. in.
General Garfield haa forwarded the
following letter of acceptance of the
nomination ttndered him by the re
publican uaiioual couveutlon to Sen
ator Hoar, of Massachusetts :
Mentor, O., July iO, 1880.
Dear Sir : On the e r eniog of tne
8ih of June last, 1 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 daynomi
uated me as their caudidate for
president of the United States. I
accept the nomination with grati
tude for the confidence it implies
aud with a deep seneeof tbe-respon-eibilities
it imposes. I cordially en
dorse the principles set forth in the
plaliorm aaopieu oy me iuuicuuuu.
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
lully recognize aud 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 ana at uuu
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 oneof the
fundamental powers of government;
that the national laws relating to the
election of representatives in con
gress shall neither be violated or
nvAflpil: that everv elector should
be permitted freely aud without in
timidation to cast his lawful vote at
such :m election aud have it honest
ly counted, 6o that the potency of
hiB vote shall not be destroyed by
the fraudulent vote of any other
persou. The best thoughts and en
ergies of our people should be di
rected to those great questions of
national well-being iu which all
have a common interest. Such ef
forts will soonest restore to perfect
peace those who were lately iu arm6
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 cauuot
fully pervade the whole country
uutil 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 aud .the laws.
Wherever the enjoyment of these
rights is not assured discontent will
prevail, immigration will cease and
the soil aud industrial forces will
continue to be disturbed by the mi
gration of laborers aud the conse
quent diminution of prosperity.
The uational government should
exorcise all its constitutional uu
thwrity to put out these evil, for mil
the people and all the mates 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
actiou, so that the minority party
can exercise effective and whole
some restraint on the party iu pow
er. Without 6uch restraint party
rule becomes tyrranical and corrupt.
The prosperity which is made pos
sible in the south by its great ad
vantages of soil aud climate will
never bo realized uutil every voter
cau freely and safely support any
party he pleases. Next in import
ance to freedom and justice is the
popular election, without which
ueither justice nor freedom can be
permanently maintained, unless its
interests are intrusted to the states
aud the voluntary action of the
people. Whatever help the nation
can justly afford should be gener
ously given to aid the states iu 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 sup
port of sectional schools. The sep
aration of the church and the state
in 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 refuudiug, that
rigid economy in expenditures and
the faithful application of our sur
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
finaucial chapter of the war. At the
same time the government can pro
vide for all ordinary expenditures
and discharge it sacred obligations
to the soldiers of the Union aad to
the widows and orphans of those
who fell in its defease. The re
sumption of speclep&ymeut, which
the republican parry sos courageous?
ly antl successfully accomplished,
has removed from the field of con
troversy many questions that long
and seriously disturbed the'eradit of
the government andTbusineaa f 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
bronght iuto use oar store of gold
and silver. The clrculatiag medium
i more abundant than ever before,
wh need only to maintain the aqaal
itv of our dollar le iMf,to labor
fetid capital a measure'oT'Talfce from
the use of -which none caa suffer
loss. The great prosperitywMch
the country is now enjoybsr hould
not be endangered by sefcevioleav
changes of dou"btful financial x
periraeHts. -
In reference to our custom laws,
a policy should be purtwad -which
will bring revenue to the treasury
jmd will enable labor"d capital
employed in our great industries
compete fairly iu our own markets
with the labor and toroign produ
cers. We labor for the people of
the United States not lor the whole
world aud it is our glory that the
American laborer is more intelli
gent aud better paid thau his foreign
competitqr. 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 aud 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 army of arti
sans, whose intelligence and skill
aboald 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
tor improvements of our harbors
and great navigable rivers, provided
that the expenditures for that 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
safetyocf its navigation requires 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 ocean. 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 oufpopulalion 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 our
people led the government to offer
the widest hospitality to emigrants
'who seek our shores for new aud
happier homes, willing to share the
burdens as well as the benefits of
our society and intending that their
posterity shall become an nndistin
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 uh 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 Ions of
commercial intercourse between the
two powera 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 aud dignity
of labor. The appointment of citi
zens to the various executive and
judicial offices 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
uo 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 citizeu. 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. Iu any event they will
guide my conduct until experience
points a better way. If elected, it
will be 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
Intelligence and patriotism of the
people and the favor of God.
With great respect, I am, very
trrily yours. J. A. Garfield.

of committee.
There is a quaint story told about
a Texan preacher who had a falling
oat with his congregation. While
the congregation and pastor were at
daggers points, the latter received
en appointment as chaplain of a pen
itentiary. When he came to preach
hia farewell sermon, he took the
following verse for his text : "I go
to prepare a place for you, so that
where I am ye may be also."
Who Will Vole 'lor IlawockV
The Albany Evening Journal an
swers this question very pointedly
when it says: "Any. man who be
lieves the Union is safer in the hands
of the party who furnished all the
traitors that tried to destroy it thau
in those of the party which was its
sure defense from the beginning to
the end of the war will vote for
Hancock.
Any man who believes that the
finances of the country are safer in
the hand? of the party who has co
operated with' inflationists, Green
backite?, "absolute money" gentry
and all other financial quacks rather
thau iu those of the party which has
always been the steady advocate of
honest money and the unflinching
defender of the Nation's credit will
vote for Hancock.
Any man who believes that the
majority should not be allowed to
prevail, but that their will, clearly
expressed at the ballot-box, is to be
Garcelonized whenever opportunity
offers, will vote for Hancock.
Any man who approves of the
revolutionary attempt of the late
Democratic Congress to starve the
Government to death will vote for
Hancock.
Any man who believes that a can
didate who is no more competent to
discbarge the duties of the Presi
dency than" Cleopatra's Needle is
competent to do fine sewing is a
fitter person to elect to that great
office than one whose talents, expe
rience, training and bent of mind
unite thoroughly to qualify him for
the position will vote fur Hancock.
Any man who wants to have buch
taskmasters as the Solid. South and
Tammauy Hall set,over the country,
and finds pleasure in the thought of
a political readjustment which wo'd
transform the North into a hewer of
wood and drawer of water, will vote
for Hancock.
Any man who believes in the doc
trine of Stute-rights, as now reas
serted with all the old emphasis by
the Democratic party, a doctrine
from whose loins7fiprang secession
and the consequent bloody andcost
ly war, will vote for Hancock.
Any man who believes that Re
form in the abstract is a sweet boon,
but thinks so illy of Reform in the
concrete as to enjoy the spectacle of
a Presidential candidate slylyciph
ering to capture the Electoral vote
of a State by the most revolting in
stalled of bribery and corruption on
record, will vote for Hancock.

It is easy to sketch him. He has
a well-proportioned stature, without
however, being too tall. He ih rather
of the middle size and somewhat
thick set. His complexion is not too
florid at an rate, too much ruddi
ness in youth is seldom a sign of
longevity. Hair approaches rather
to the fair than to the black ; his
skin is strong but not rough.
His head is not too big. He has
large veins at extremities, aud his
shoulders are rather round than fiat ;
his neck is not too long, his belly
does not project, and his hands are
large, bin not too deeply cleft. His
foot is rather thick than long, and
his legs are firm and round. He has
a broad chest, and strong voice, and
the faculty of retaining his breath
for a long time without difficulty.
His nerves are never out.of order;
bis pulse is slowaud regular. His
appetite is good, and his digestion
eaBy. He has not much thirst, which
is always a sign of rapid self-consumption.
His passions never be
come too violent or destructive. If
he gives way to anger he experien
ces a glow of warmth without an
ovei flowing of the gall. He likes
employment, particularly calm med
itation and agreeable speculation--
is an optimist, a friend to nature
aud domestic felicity has no thirst
after either honor or riches, and
banishes all thought of to-morrow.
General Garfield's speech -when
he was nominated for the senate is
recalled as a timely document now.
Speaking of his public life he said:
"Let me venture to point to a single
instance in regard to that work.
During the twenty years that I have
been in public (all most eighteen of
it in the congress of the United
States), I have tried to do one thing.
Whether I -was mistaken or other-'
wise, it. has been the plan of my life
to follow my conviction, at what
ever personal cost to myself. I have
represented for many years a district
in congress whose approbation I
greatly desired, but though it may
seem a little more -egotistical to say
it, I yet still more desired the ap
probatioh of one person, and his
name was Garfield. He is the only
man I am compelled to sleep with,
and eat with, and live with, and die
with, and if I could not have his
approbation, I should have bad com
panionship. And in this large
constituency which has called on me
to represent them now I can only do
what is true to myself applying the
same rule , and if I should be so un
fortunate as to lose the confidence
of this larger constituency, I mnst
do what every fair minded man has
to do carry his political lif a In his
hands and take the consequences.
But I must follow what it seems to
me to be thcouly safe rule of my life,
and with that view of the case, and
with that much personal reference, I
leave the subject." North Bend

As a last desperate effort to secure
a full and tree ballot in Vermont the
Democratic managers counterfeited
the republican state ticket, making
a change only in one place by inser
ting an "e" so as to make it read
"For Governor, Rosewell Farnham,
instead of Roswell," and printed
400,000 of them for distribution at
all the polls in the State. Some
lynx-eyed Republican struck this lit
tle fraud, however, long enough be

Republicans iu every part of the
