    Garfield on War Jlcmoric.
Ed. Journal: With the consent
of the writer 1 6end you an ex
tract from a letter received in July
last from Rev. C. C. Starbuck, who
is so well known to your readers as
to make any comments of mine out
of place.
-Last Saturday I went up to
Painesville. on the Lake, 10 miles
above here (Clarendon, O.,) a beauti
ful and wealthy city of some 12,000
inhabitants, to attend the celebration
of Independence, and the dedication
of the eoldiers monument, a shaft of
granite about 40 feet hiffti, sur
mounted by an ever vigilant sen
tinel.' My friend, Governor Cox, deliver.-;
ed the oration, which as also graced
by the presence of our candidate,
who lives a little way from Paines
ville. Gen. GarOeld made a brief,
but very effective speech. I was
much pleased with one comparison
made. He said he had once been in he
a house oyer whose door were two
crossed swords, one of American
and one ot the English grandfather,
both borne at Bunker Hill, but on
different sides. Their common pos
terity could now live in peace under
the emblems of the oppositly ex
hibited valor of their ancestors.
The application was obvious, and as
it was made by Garfield it was of
course applauded, although when
Gen. Cox, had just before said about
the same thing the multitude stood
mute. And indeed we were so
plainly in the right, that it is hard
to rid ourselves of the senso of some
special merit above our Southern
brethern in having been in the right,
whereas if we had lived in Georgia
we should have probably been Geor
gians. The true Unionists in the
South are the only ones who can
claim special merit.
"I am not very fond of Fourth of
July celebrations in general, but last
Saturday wa9 so delightfully cool
and bright, and in dedication of the
soldiers monument, the interests of
the present and the past were so
happily blended, while the presence
of our candidate brought the busi
ness of the year in po encouraging
an aspect before the mind, that all
this, with the many thousands that
were packed in the shady park, and
the 6inging of the choir of school
children, and the animating strains
of the bands that every now and
then heralded some new procession
from a neighboring town, made the
day a thoroughly enjoyable one.
Yours, T. A. Hall.
"West Hill, Neb.
As the now celebrated speech of
Gen. Garfield has not been published
in the Journal, we print it herewith
as a matter of historic interest.
Our illustrious caudidate has the
faculty ot making a most excellent
republican speech on a public oc
casion without being amenable to
criticism as a partisan they breath
the very spirit of pataiotisra.
Fellow Citizens : "I cannot fail
to respond on such an occasion, in
the eight of 6uch a monument to
such a cause, sustained by such men.
(Applause and cheers) While I have
listeued to what my friend said, two
questions have been sweeping
through my heart. One is 'what
does the monument mean?' and the
other 'what will the monument
teach?' Let me try, and ask you
to help me answer. What
doeB the monument mean? Oh,
the monument means a world of
memories, and a world of deeds,
and a world Of tears, and a world of
gloriee. You know, thousands
know what it is to offer up your life
for your country, and that is no
Btnall thing as every soldier knows.
lt me nut the Question to you for
a moment. Suppose your country,
in the awful embodied form of maj
estic law, should stand above you
and say; "I want your life; come
up here on the platform aud offer
It," how many would walk up be
fore that majestic presence aud say,
"here I am; take this life and use it
for your great needs?' Applause.
and yet almost two million of men
made that answer applause, and a
monument stands- youder to com
memorate their answer. That is
one of its meanings.
Bnt ray trieucK let me try you a
little further. To give up life is
much, for it is to give up wife and
home and child and nmbition. But
let me tefet vou this way further.
Suppose thih" majestic form should
call out to vou and say : "I ask you
to give up health and drag yourself,
not dead, but half alive, through a
miserable existence for long, long
years, until you perish and die in
your crippled and hopeless con
dition. I ask you to voluuteer to
do that." It calls for a higher rech
of patriotism and self-sacrifice, but
thousands of you soldiers did that.
That is what the monumeut meaus
also.
But let me ask you to go one step
further. Suppose your coumrj
should say: "Come here on this
platform and in my name and for
mv sake consent to be idiots."' A
voice; Hear. Hear. "Consent that
your very brain and intellect shall
be broken down into hopeless idiocy
for my sake." How many could be
found to make that venture? And
yet thousands, and that with their
eyes wide open to the horrible con
sequences, obeyed that call. And
let me tell how 100,000 of our sol
diers wore prisoners of war, and
many of them, when death was stalk
ing near, when famine was climbing
tip into their hearts and idiocy was
threatening all that was left of their
intnllnetB. the rates of their prison
stood open every day if they would
quit, desert their flag and enlist
under the flag of their enemy, and
out of 180,000 not two percent ever
received the liberation from death,
starvation, idiocy, and all that we
might name of them ; but they took
all these horrors, and all these suff
erings in preference to going back
upon the flag of their country
the glory of its truth. -Applause.
Great Godl waB ever such measure
of patriotism reached by any man on
this earth before. Applause. That
is what your monument means.
By the subtle chemistry that no
man knows, all the blood that was
shed by. our brethren, all the lives
that wore devoted, all the grief that
WAR
felt, at last crystallized itsen
into granite, rendered immortal the
great truth for which they died ap
plause, and it stands there to-day,
and that is what your monument
means.
Now what does it teach? What
will it teach ? Why, I remember the
story of one of the old conquerors of
Greece who, when he had travelled
in his boyhood over the battlefields
where Miltiades had won victories
and set up trophies. Returning, he
said: "These tropmesoi ju.mmut
will never let me sleep." Why?
Something had taught him from the
chiselled stone a lesson that he could
never; forget ;j;and,fel low citizens,
that silent sentinel, that crowned
granite column will look down upon
the boys that will walk these streets
for generations to come, and will
not let them sleep when their coun
try calls them. Applause.j More
than the bugler on the field from his
, .. T,. .... ll tkr.1 to
aeaa iips wm gu vu ... V, 1
children of Lake couuty will hear
after the grave had covered us an
and onr immediate children. This
is the teaching of your monument.
That is its lesson ; and it is the les
son of endurance for what we be
lieve ; and it is the lesson of sacrifi
ces for what we think ; the lessou of
heroism for what we mean to sus
tain ; and that lesson cannot be lost
to a people like this. It is not a
lesson of wrath; it is the grand,
sweet, broad lesson of the immor
tality of the truth that we hope will
soon cover as with the grand shech
iuah of light and glory all parts ol
this republic from the great lakes to
the Gulf. Applause.
I once entered a house in old
Massachusetts, where over its doors
were two crossed swords. One was
the sword carried by the grand
father of its owner on the field ot
Bunker Hill, and tho other was the
sword carried by the English grand
sire of the wife on the same field,
and the other side of the conflict.
Under those crossed swords in the
restored harmony of domesticpeace
lived a happy and contented and
free family under the light of our
Republican liberties. Applause.j
Applause.
I trust the time is not mr aisiani
when under the crossed swords and
the locked shields.of Americans,
north and south, our people shall
sleep in peace and rise in liberty,
love and harmony under the union
of one flag of the stars and stripes.
Applause.
Cheap Transportation.
Ed. Journal: From correspon
dence in your columns it appears
that our people are waking up on
the question of cheap transportation.
The Fillmore couuty delegation
seem to have made a stand in the
State convention, and got a mild
plank introduced good as far as it
goes. Saline county is agitated by
the same qnestion, aud in fact it is
the Question of the hour all over
this State aud mauy other states.
In order that we may work suc
cessfully we should first have a clcai
understanding of what we do waut,
and if the writer is posted on this
question our people want Transpor
tation and telegraphy at actual cost,
the same as we get our mail matter.
We want this first on trunk lines,
and gradually wherever the country
needs Railroads.
In order to get cheap Transpor
tation we have paid money, donated
lands to build roads aud competing
roads, which roads are operated
exclusively in the interest of their
owners. Having giyen the money
by legislation and raised it by tax
ation to build roads to be owned
and controlled in the interest of
private corporations, to their great
benefit, let us now try to do the
same for the whole people, with the
same power, to be owned and con
trolled in the interest of the whole
people, not only to tneir great ma
terial benefit, but the advancement
towards a peaceable settlement of
man)' other vexed questions.
This seems a good thing to do and
whilst it is being accomplished let
us legislate to restrict, as far as we
justly can, the rates on all lines to
the minimum of profitable enterprise.
To do this it is necessary to have
men in office that we can trust not
to be bought ; ncxt'tbat every candi
date for of&ce, from lowest to highest,
be wholly and heartily with us.
Now call them out everywhere aud
always on this question, make him
give his views on cheap transpor
tation, both before and after nomi
nation, and do not be afraid of any
objections that may be urged in the
interest of monoploy, for the argu
ment as well as tho right, is with
our side. Respectfully,
Chuck Take.
General Garfield's Letter of Accept
ance of the Republican
'Nomination.
An Able Dooneat iron
trlllgent .Han.
i an Ia
Mentor. O.. July' 13, 1
a. m.
Gendral Garfield 'has forwarded'the
follqwyig letter of acceptance ofjhe
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 e ening of the
8th of Juue last, 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 the 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 set forth in the
platform adopted by the convention.
Of nearly all'of the ubject8"on
which it treats my opinions are on
record among the published pro
ceediugs of congress. I will ven
ture, however, Jo make special men
tion of some of the principal topics
which are likely to become subjects
of discussion. Without recurriug
to the controversy which has been
settled during the last 20 years, and
.with no purpose or wish to revive
thepassions of the late war, it should
be said that while the republicans
"tully recognize aud will strenuously
defend all the rights reserved to the
states, tbey 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
uim
election of representatives in con-
trress
shall neither be violated or
evaded; that every elector snouia
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 auy other
person. The best thoughts and en
ergies of our people should bo di
rected to those great questions of
national well-being in which all
have a common interest. Such ef
forts will soonest restore to perfect
peace those who were lately in arni6
against each other, for justice aud
good will are our last possessions.
But it is certain that the wounds of
the war cannot be completely healed
aud the spirit of brotherhood caunot
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 aud the laws.
Wherever the enjoyment of these
rights is not assured discontent will
prevail, immigration will cease aud
.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 6erious 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 in pow-'
er. Without such restraint party
rule becomes fyrranical and corrupt.
The prosperity which is made pos
sible in the south by its great ad
vantages of soil and climate will
never be 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 tin voluntary action of the
people. Whatever help the nation
can jiiBtly afford should be gener
ously given to aid tho states in sup
porting the common schools; but it
would bo 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 ot 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 anuual interest has
been reduced by refunding, that
rigid economy in expenditures and
the faithful application of our sur
plus revenues to the payment of the
Drincinal 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 all ordinary expenditures
and discharge it sacred obligations
to the soldiers of the Union and to
tho 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 tho field of con
troversy many questions that long
and seriously 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
and silver. The circulating medium
is more abundant than ever before,
we need only to maintain the equal
ity of our dollars to insure to labor
and capital a measure of value from
the use of which none can suffer
loss. The great prosperity which
the country is now enjoying should
not be endangered by some violeut
changes of doubtful financial ex
periments. In reference to our custom laws,
a policy should be pursued which
will bring revenue to the treasury
and will enable labor and capital
employed in "'our great industries
compete fairly in our own markets
with the labor and foreign produ
cers. We labor for the people of
the United Stales 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 Uie rqumuu biviii iu
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 tho founders of
our government to provide for the
common defense, not by standing
armies alone, but by raising among
the neonle a greater army of arti
sans, 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 that pur
pose are strictly limited to works of
national importance. The Missis
sippi river, with its great tributa
ries, iB of such vital importance to
so many millions of people that the
safety of "its navigation requires ex
ceptional consideration, in order to
6ecnre to the nation the control .
all its waters. President Jeffers.
negotiated the purchase of a v;
territory extending from the Gi
of Mexico to the Pacific oceau. 7
wisdom of congress should be
voked to devise some plan by wh
that great river shall cease to be
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
tho 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 and
happier homes, willing to share the
burdens as well as the benefits ot
our society aud intending that their
posterity shall become an undistin
guislmble 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 bo looked upon without
solicitude. Wc cannot consent to
allow auy 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 loss of
commercial intercourse between the
two powers which promises great
increaspof 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 aud 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 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
no syBtem 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 hi
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. Tho 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, tho 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
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
truly yours. J.A.Garfield.

Old Men' Energy.
Their energy, says the London
Spectator, is at least as great as that
of the young. Not to go farther
back than the memory of this gener
ation, we have seen Radetsky at 83
conqueror of Piedmont, and Palm
erston at 81 dictator of England, aud
Earl ltussell at 59 expel Palmerston,
and Lyndhnrst at 88 discomfit op

and EioNono at 73, call a council
of Christendom to change the Catho
lic church from a co-operative aris

nounces the speeches which might
have been made by a whole cabinet,

them is that thoy are too vehement,

Happy Mothers.
I may say, rather, cheerful mothers,
but 1 do not, because there is no
real sunshiny cheerfulness possible
ivithout happiuoss in tho heart.
And there may be happiness, if the
heart be rightly placed aud stroug
in love and faith, eveu when the out
look in life is dark, aud the clouds
upon the path are heavy. There
may be little money in the purse.
There may be a dear one lying pal

grees. There may be a narrow grave
in the cemetery, aud a .vacant soat at
the table. But yet, my sister, if
Christ is your friend, abiding with
you and holding fast your haud,
there may be a strange gladness
mingled with your sorrow.
We all waut our little children to
be happy. Now the happiest child-
n are those who have happy
mothers. The young lite, which
grows up iu the shadow of a dis
contented, ropiuiug and gloomy
mother, is like a plant unwatered by

to ungentleness come, let the

sake, try to bo happy. Margaret K.

A young mother, iu despair of

me my letters." May I really aud
