NEW YOHK , October 2. Judge Fol-
cer , the nominee of the recent repub
lican convention for governor of this
atate , has written a letter accepting
the nomination. Ho says :
The canvass In the party for dele-
Bates to that convention has seldom
been equalled in earnestness and ac
tivity and in fullness , freedom nnd
publicity of preparatory discussion ,
The attention of republicans every
where was fully aroused. Their prim
ary nicotines were hold in accord with
long established usages , aavo in an ex
ceptional locality or two where modern
have for some time existed which , if
not acquiesced , have never been reso
lutely rebelled against and changed ,
These primaries wer.i attended in un
exampled numbers and justly ex
pressed the sentiments of those who
attended them , The delegates chosen
to the atato convention represented
the views and opinions of their respec-
/ tiv ? constituencies as fairly and fully
< fas those of conventions which preceded
it. The methods of the convention
t
when assembled , were in accordance
with precedent , free from violence
and clamor , soiatu and deliberate.
There is naught
ON THE FACE OF T11EM
that will warrant the assertion that all
done in Us meotingu was hnneAt and
above board , and that the results did
not flow from conscientious and duti
ful convictiomi nnd actions of mem
bers. This is plain from the fact that
when a decisive vote was reached ,
though there had been deej , fooling
and there was great disappointment ,
there was no hesitation in yielding
unanimous acquiescence , and a motion
. to that end was made by ono and sec-
V ended by another of the prominent
members , who had hoped and labored
for a different end. Their pirty and
public rank , and their character and
qualities forbid the idea that they
would have submitted to or winked at
vicious or even irregular practices in
their opponents. It would seem , ns
thus considered , that the conclusions
reached by the convention were enti
tled to the sanction and support of the
republican party and the approbation
of the public. Yet it would bu idlu to
affect not to know that the public
mind-is stirred by reports of doings in
which the convention os a body had
no part doings of a quality which
honest and high minded men cannot
appsovo , and
WILL NOT TAMELY TOLKUATK.
No ono claims , no ono believes , I
had lot or part therein or previous
hint or suspicion thereof. I scorn an
end to bo got by * ny such moans. I
will not undertake to measure the
truth of all these reports , that of one
is beyond dispute , nor will I argue
whether or not the results reached by
the convention , or any of the pro
cesses toward them , were shaped or
. .affected thereby. The facts are pub
lic and every ono may form his owii
judgment. But there is growing
thereout a practical question and
it is brought to me for answer.
Persons , aomo holding official rela
tions with the republican party , and
all in good standing in the community ,
have asked me to
DECLINE THE NOMINATION ,
They express confidence in me , and
fully acquit me of participation in
a knowledge with that which they
hold will justify the action they de
sire acts conceded or alleged to have
boon done upon which they base their
request. They also concede they were
wholly acts of others than mo. I have
deliberated and anxiously considered
the matter , have weighed the reasons
which they present , and forecast the
consequences. The matter has two
aspects , personal and public. As to
that personal , I raado no indication of
willingness to be a candidate until
after I had been named in the press
and talked by men in that connection ,
and it is apparent that I should bo
brought before the convention. I
tJun said if there was a fair degree of
concurrence in my nomination ,
' I WOULD ACCEIT
but that if another was named I should
nut bo sorry and if I waj named I
would not bo glad , I have eyor been
of that miu'f. I am of that mind now.
There arc those who were members of
that convention who know that in the
week of its sitting I rnado an effort to
have the nomination of another
Vrought about , as I sought not the
I lamination. I was not glad when it
r. umo to me , as I could have always
o win and could now see it go to another
si ilthout ono twinge of rogrot. I have
w > peraonarroasou why I should not
nt fata it with alacrity , but the matter
rei
is not solely or chiefly personal. It
has a wider and vastly
MOUE IMPORTANT SCOPE.
In my judgment , for any ono placet
as I am at this time to decline the
nomination , would produce an utter
colhpso ot the republican party. .
Those who urj > mo have not , I conceive
ceivo , run out that net to do certain
consequences. It would bo to leave
the patty on the eve of a highly Itn
portant election withotn a candidate
for the chief ofllco in the atato. It is
so far impracticable as to be almost
impassible to name another person for
thooflico who would bo lilioly to meet
with pirty acceptance. What man of
Hullicicnt state repute to bo an accept
nblo and strong candidate , and of the
f.ciiBibililies that go with self-respect ,
would bo nillini ; in such circunv
nUticcj to accept a late nomination
r.iul .ako
. THE IIAZUU ) OF A OANVASS \
No niAii of another kind would
tnoet the demands of the party or
cauld hope for popular fuvor or enter
the Held with a reasonable prospect of
succosa. Moreover it is phjsically
impracticable to put up another candt
date , I say to the men who propose
this thing to mo "Come , let us reason
together. " Suppose thatlluve do
cliuod , how will you have ix now nominee
ineo selected ) The convention has
adjourned sino die ; its powers have
been spent ; it has dissolved into its
elements. Can it reassemble with any
prerogative that will insure regard to
itsiloingff Iti the state of Pennayl
vania that wns ono of the questions in
the turmoil of the repubhcpn party.
It had no solution. If it should reai-
somblo would you abide by what it
would do ? You say that you would
not. It empowered the state committee -
too to fill any vacancy on the ticket.
Would you have that committee ,
NAME THE URN ]
"No , " you say , "for that committee
is the outcome of the same convention
which brought ycu forth , and which
convention you repudiate. " There is
then but ono other mode that is , a
convention of delegates freshly chosen
according to the usages of the party.
The tirau left for that is at moat but
about a month. Moat persons are
Familiar with the processes to compre
hend that to gel together from differ
ent parts of the state , members of the
state committee must mnko a call for
such state convention , to semi abroad
the fact of the call to counties and as
sembly districts , to convene the com-
mittcss thereof from the homes of
many which the telegraph does not
reach , to send abroad a call for dis
trict conventions to weekly nowspa-
papers , usually the only alternative in
the rural parts of the state , to call the
town caucuses in those partly by the
same mode , would require so much
time that election day in early No
voniber next would dawn with most of
the voters without any knowledge of
what man wus the candidate { < f the republican
publican party , and without ballots in
their hands with his name upon them.
IIEAU IN MIND
that declination by mo is not to utterly
allay factional jealousy , distrust and
strife ; that it will not do to give or
leave ground for the allegations or be
liefs of an ill advertised convention ,
or "snap caucus ; " that for ultimate
harmony or oven sullen acquiescence
there must be orderly and decorous
and well proclaimed proceedings , and
then figure out the lapse of time the
different processes above stated will
take , nnd see if it is practicable by i
now convention to sot a now cindl
data before the people. It Is my
honest and sottlou condition that it is
not. For mo to decline then is to
leave the republican party without a
candidate , and the practical result of
that is not only the certain election
of a democratic governor , but it is
complete
DISOUOANI/.ATION AND DISINT OHATION
of the republican party with all tbo
adverse consequences , state and na
tional to flow thorctrom. The responsibility
sponsibility for such u result is too
great to put upon ono man. I have
naught to say for myself. I make no
plea for myself. If I am defeated and
it bo n disappointment , ic will not bo
the first that has mot mo. If I am po
litically ruined , as cyiupathizingly
said to mo , and it works u narrow , it
will not bo the first that has entered
ray soul and left ita fangs there. Be
result what it may to mo. It will not
take the responsibility of breaking up
the orgunizition und destroying the
republican party of the state of
Now York.
IK IT IS TO BE DEFEAT
at the coining election it must be an
act of omission of the republican
voters , I can go down bravely with
the party that has favored mo and
which I love , aorono in the conscious
ness that no act of mine has wrought
rueful ruin. Circumstances have
forced mo so far , it would gladden me
now to bo a candidate of a united and
coaloua republican party. It would
be my aim , if elected , to be a repre
sentative of the whole party , sub
servient only to my duty to bo chief
magistrate of the whole people , un
moved by appeals of faction , unans
wered by appliances of private In-
: eresta , acknowledging no claim of
nero partisanship , looking supremely
for the good of the commonwealth.
Thus far I have assumed that the
predictions of my interlocutors of dis
aster are well founded , I do not con
cede that thorn is no need of doleful
apprehension , The issuoi are of too
; rave consequences , too serious for
present disappointment and even
righteous indignation to lead to per
sistence in
ILL-AnVJHED AND FATAL AOrjON ,
Republican will reflect , and reflection
t > y allowing what will come of demo
cratic success will turn aside disaster
by prompting to united and vigorous
action. I therefore accept the nomi
nation and await the result of the can
vas without perturbation. "
Mr. Folger then announces that ho
is in full accord with the resolutions
} f the convention , Of civil service
10 saye : "There is no reason why the
nlnor offices of the government should
x > given to relatives or friends , or de
pendents or objects of sympathy of
* . . .
those who hold positions of iniluonc
near the appointing power or hnvi
friendly relations therewith ; no re a
son why the privilege should not besought
sought by merit on equal terms. There
is need of legislation to romovn some
obstacles in the way , and some revisIon
Ion of the rules already adopted to
render them loss scholastic and more
practical. "

Tlio judge pronounced for the right
of municipalities to direct their own
affairs , that it is local self-government
and for economy In expenditures of
public money. The judge adds ,
"There can bo no question that the
artificial water ways of the state should
bo preserved. They are the means of
competition with other bidders for the
carrying trade of the nountruud

where they cm bo managed for the
public interest , to prevent , to protect
and to abito the rigcr of private ac
tion. The tendency of business af
fairs nowadays ia to aggravation of
capital and in ita use of repressing in
dividual or weaker enterprises. It is
well therefore that the state with its
aggregate power should retain and
maintain a means so patent as the
canal regulating the carrying trade
through the state , so that individuals
and companies ot slender means may
enter into competition with those of
greater power and enforce , as far as
nay be , equal and reasonable facilities
of carriage.
Judge Folgor in closing his letter ,
says , "I believe that my principles of
iction will bo commended to good
tense. I stand upon them , and on

Before the people of 'the state ns a

their furtherance I do confidently
expect that disappointments will be
forgotten , that the causes of rcpul
aion will not lead to abandonment of
political tics , and that united and liar
monious action will bring about the
result that will keep the state of Now
York in accord with the majority ol

Hopbnrn Declines
Special Dltpntcli to TliE Krr
NEW YOKK , October 2. A. B.
Hepburn writes declining the nomi
nation for congressman at largo.
COMMENTS
upon the letters of Folgor and Hop-
burn ;
The Tribune says : "Tho man on
the Saratoga ticket whom nobody ob
jected to and with whoso nomination
everybody was satisfied , finds the scan
dals of the convention too heavy
burden and refuses to stand under
them. Hepburn's letter is modest ,
manly and consistent. Ho makes nc
reflections upon the convention
tion that nominated him for
congressman at largo , but frankly says
circumstances have como to lighl
since which prevent republicans from
regarding its action us authoritative ,
lie is unwilling to hold the nomina
tion under such circumstances , and so
withdraws. Ho stands all the stronger
gor for this with a great majority ol
republicans , Mr , Folgor is not un
willing to hold the nomination under
such circumstances Ho accepts , and
writes two or thrco columns to tel
why. A case entirely clear could
have been stated in shorter space.
The Herald says : The letter woulc
have been shorter If Mr. Folgor had
not felt it necessary to attempt to
justify to himself and to his friends ,
as well as ho could , his acceptance ol
the nomination , which ho admits , per
sons of "good standing" in the com
munity and some "holding official re
lations with the republican party , '
urged him to decline. Instead ol
taking their sound and hnncsl
advice , Mr. Folger has chosen to ac
cept thu nomination , and a largo par )
of his present letter is naturally taken
up with a discussion of the question
whether the receiver is really as bad
as the thief. Wo w ish for his own
otiko ho had taken their advice and
declined the nomination , which , as
they saw and as ho sees , and as every
3110 in the state sees , was procured for
liim by the most contemptible fraud
and forgery. One wrong necessitates
another , and the men who compassed
Mr. Folgor'a nomination against the
will of the convention will not stoop
at trifles to secure his election against
the voters ,
The World says ; Mr , Folger invites
republicans of New York to move on
to battle under his banner to the in-
ipiring strains of the Dead March in
ijiul. Three points of atato policy on
which Folger dwells most earnestly
and intelligently in his remarkable
.otter are the nucossity of local self
government In our cities , towns and
tillages , the importance of remitting
x ) primary meetings of the people the
choice of dek-gatos who are
.0 represent the people in
: ho organization of political
parties and the duty of economy in
idminlatration of our ulato and local
affairs. As those throe points happen
to be the cardinal features of demo
cratic policy , which Orqver Cleveland
stands pledged to carry into effect ,
respectable republicans may contem
plate with equanimity the gloomy
nrty prospects which their candidate
infolds to them. _ _

This right amounts to property cap
