At the Fifth Avenue hotel in New

The Democratic organs are making
a desperate eflort to keep the record
of their party out of tho canvass. One
organ xvants (lie campaign to turn on
what the parties arc doing noxv ami
not ou xvhat they did iu the past,
while another wills Cleveland a "con

that he doc- not live iu the pa-t, but

The Harvard college profes-ors and
.mugwumps of Boston, and Mr. Carl
Schiir?, of New York, based their op
position to Blaine and Logan princi
pally on the ground that the civil ser
vice plank in the platform aciording
to their vicxv is "immoral ami dis

Mr. Faxon, of the Omaha White

sjderable.size in this state, was in the
city yesterday, bpeaklng or the late
convention at Topcka, its platform
and nominees, he said he had taken
great pains to ascertain the sentiment
of the people and that witli the excep
tion of two or three localities Knu?:u
xvould give an overwhelming majority
for i he entire Republican tiikcti
Lcaveuxvorlh and Wichita arc the
only places xvherc the platform has
been criticised or complained ol to
any extent. Republicans say every
where that the (onveutiou could not
have done less than recognize the con
stitution and law as binding, especial
ly in view of the fact that the prexcut
chief executive of the state had; so far
as he could, trampled it beneath his
feet, as also the courts which had sus
tained them.
THE LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE.
We publish clsexvhcrc Mr. Blaine's
letter of acceptance. It appears to us
to be tho ablest, most explicit, influen
tial, and thoroughly wise document
ever addressed to a nominating com
mittee as a letter of acceptance. The
history not only of the two pending
political parties, but, iu an economic
aspect, of the nation, is condensed iu
it. Amply as xve tvere satisfied with
the Republican platform to which this
is a response, it must be said that ihe
letter of acceptance at once embodies
and supersedes the platform. Upon
this letter alone the campaign cau be
fought. On this xve rest. Our case is
made out.
The argument it makes for protec
tion, all the more effective because not
put into the lorm of an argument,
stands iu relation to the predictions
of Hamilton and Gallatin iu the early
days of the republic as fulfillment to
prophecy as demonstration to hy
pothecs Then the great results cap
able of being xvou from destiny by the
policy or vigorous protection to home
industry was believed in, though seen
as through a glass darkly. Now they
are proudly pointed to because xve are
face to face with them.
Mr. JJIaino's letter is not merely lu
minous; it is a flood of golden sun
shine; it is life radiant, health exuber
ant, hope triumphant, vigor made
scll-cunscious. Every man who reads
it carefully will feel iukpjml ,,y jt.
Every nun, who is political!!' sick or
infirm and is xx orihy to recover will
find hi-allli in it. 'Hie calm splendor
of Ihe rising day drives before it all
enemies by the s'imple poxx'cr of light.
So, .Mr. ltfaiues letter comes xvith the
"Cicim ami silent ptMvcr of sunrise.
The issues it presents had in sonic dc
giee olteu before been presented, but
here they are convened into daylight.
Other men have urged the tarifl tjuco
lioii. Mr. Blaine i-. irresistible xvilh
ont urgency.
Whenever this letter of acceptance
shall be rend, calumny will make lia-te
to break its poisoned arrows anil sink
their fragments iu oblivion's stream.
Men xvbo l.axe not previously felt that
they have known Blaine will" now feel
that they have conversed xvith him
under ihe simile of the great tree- of
hi -j faraway Maine home.
We will not mar the floxving ca
dence of this letter by selecting extract-.
Xo extinct can be made from
a tleep, clear, billowy currout of
thought which in continuity is like a
rivcr,aml inbieadthaud placidity is
like the sea at rest. Stars glisten iu
its depth-. Its pulse exalts us xvith a
sense ol kin-hip to the great, round
xvoritl ot iiumaii hearts.
Reading the letter, the mighty state
ol which xve form a part, the great
American Republic, becomes again
distinct xvith lifi like a ship xvhen its
pilot (-lops on board, ready again lo

1 he Buffalo Courier admiui-ters a
deserved rebuke to the Nexv York
Times for a-king Ihe Democracy to
get rid of iln disreputable classes. If
the bolters are goingto abide with the
Democracy, the Courier says, they
must expect to put up with the com'
pany they find themselves iu, ami not

The Boston Traveler is authority
for the statement that shortly before
the conx'cntiou (Jen. Butler assured a
Bostou friend that iu case Cleveland
were nominated Blaine's majority iu
Massachusetts xvould not be less than
40,000. By way of reply to a tjuc--lion
as to iti own action in that con
tingency. Gen. Butler said: "An
iri-nman xvas once riding in a car
riage, xvhen the horse kicked so hard
thatatla-t he planted bis hind feet
clear oxer the dasher. 'Be jabers,'
said Pat, 'if it's the likes of you are
coining into the shay it's me-elf
that'll be gettin' out.' Now, I see
that if Cleveland is nominated, cer
tain gentlemen in Masachu-etts talk
about comiiuj into tho Democratic
carryall. In that ca-e I should feel
xory" like Pat in the story. Thex
think I ami my friends are bad men",

couldn't ride comfortably together."'
During the lingering illness of Pres
