Folger's Lotver nf Accoptance. 8pecial Dispatch to T Brx. ger, the nominee of the recent repub- lican convention for governor of this state, has written a letter accepting the nomiration, He says: The canvass (n the party for dele- gates to that convention has seldom been equalled in earnestoess and ac- tivity and in fullness, freedom and publicity of preparatory discussion. The attention of republicans every- where was fully aroused. Their prim- ary meetings were held in accord with long established usages, save in an ex- ceptional locality or two where modes have for some time existed which, if not acquiesced, have never boen reso- lutely rebelled against and changed, Those primaries wera attended in u exampled numbers and justly ex- pressed the sentiments of those who attended them. The delegates chosen to the state convention represented the views and opinions of their respec- / tive constituencies as fairly and fully £ -as those of conventions which preceded it, The methods of the convention when assembled, were in accordance with precedent, free from violence and clamor, sedate and deliberate, There is naught ON THE FACE OF THEM that will warrant the assertion that all done in its meetings was honest and above board, and that the results did not flow from conscientious and duti- ful convictions and actions of mem- bers. This is plain from the fact that when a decisiye vote was reached, though there had been dee, feeling and there was great disappointment, there was no hemtation in yielding unanimous acquiescence, and a motion \ to that end was made by ono and scc- onded by another of the prominent members, who had hoped and labored for a different end, Their party and public rank, and their character and qualities forbid the idea that thoy would have submitted to or winked at vicious or even irregular practices in their opponents. 1t would seem, as thus considered, that the conclusions reached by the convention were enti- tled to the sanction and support of the republican party aud the approbation of the public. Yot it would b idle to affect not to know that the public mind s stirred by reports of doings which the convention os a body had no part-—doings of a quality which honest and high minded men cannot appsove, and WILL NOT TAMELY TOLERATE, No one claims, no one believes, T had lot or part therein or previous hint or suspicion thereof. I scorn an end to be got by any such means, 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, wore shaped or wows -affocted thereby, The facts are pub- lic and every one may form his own judgment. But there is growing thereout @ practical question and it is brought to me for answer. Persons, some holding official rela- tions with the republican party, and all in good séaning 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- siro—acts conceded or alleged to have been done upon which they base their request, They also concede they were wholly acts of others than me, 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 made 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 be brought before the convention, thon said if there was a fair degree of concurrence in my nomination, | 1 WOULD ACCEPT but that if another was named I should AR p—— | not be sorry and if I was named I would not be glad. I have ever been of that miud. Lam of that mind now There are those who were members of k of its sitting I made au effort to have the nomination of another rought about, as I sought not the | Jomination. I was not glad when it r ume to me, a8 I could have always ¢ sen and could now see it go to another &t ithout oue twinge of regret. I have w » personal reason why I should not n¢ fage it with alacrity, but the matter re New York, October 2,—Judge Fol- | * that convention who know that in the | aotion. is not solely or chiefly personal. It has & wider and vastly MORE IMPORTANT SCOPE. In my judgment, for any ons placed as I am at this time to decline the nomination, would produce au utter collapse of the republican party. Those who urge me have not, I con- ceive, run out that act to do certain consequences. It would be to leave the party on the eve of a highly im- portant election withou: a candidate for the chief office in the state, It is 80 far impracticable as to be almost impossible to name another person for the office who would be likely to meet with party acceptance, What man of suflicient state repute to be an accept- ablo and strong candidate, and of the sensibilities that yo with self-respect, would be willing in such circum- atances to accept & late nomination nd .ake 11E HAZAED OF A CANVASS 7 No man_of another kind would ost the demands of the party or could hope for popular favor or enter the field with a reasonable prospect of succoss, Moreover it is physically impracticable to put np another candi- date, 1 say to the men who propuse this thing to me *‘Come, let us reason together.” Suppose that T have de clined, how will you have a new now- ineo selected! The convention has adjourned sine die; its powers have been spent; it has dissolved into its clements. Canit reassemble with any prerogative that will insure regard to its doinge! 1o the state of Ponnayl- vania that was one of the questions in the turmcil of the republicen party, It had no solution, If it should reas- omble would you abide by what it would do? You say that you would not. It empowered the state commit- tee to fill any vacancyon the ticket. Would you have that committee, NAME THE MEN | “No,” you say, ‘*for that committeo is vho outcome of the same cfhuvention which brought ycu forth, and which convention you repudiate.” There is then but one other mode—that is, a convention of delegates freshly chosen according to the usages of the party. The time loft for that is at nyost but about a month, Most persons are familiar with the processes to compre- hend that to get together from diffor- ent parts of the state, members of ths state committee must make a call for such state convention, to sent abroad the fact of the call to counties and as- sembly districts, to conveue the com- mittess thereof from the homes of many which the telegraph does not reach, to send abread a call for dis- trict conventions to weekly newspa- papers, usualiy 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 vember next would dawn with most of the voters without any knowledge of what man wus the candidate «f the re- publican party, and without ballots in their hands with his name upon them. BEAR IN MIND that declination by meis 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 harmory or even sullen acquiescence there must be orderly and decorous and well proclaimed proceedings, and then figure out the lapse of time the ditferent processes above stated will take, and see if it is practicable by a new convention to set a new candi- date before the people. It 18 my honest and settled condition that it 1 not. For me 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 DISORGANIZATION AND DISINTZGRATION of the republican party with all the adverse consequences, state and na. tional to flow theretrom. Thae re- sponsibility for such a result is too great to put upon one man. I have naught to say for myself, 1 make no plea for myself, IfI am dofeated and it be a disappointment, iv will not be tho first that has met me. If I am po- litically ruined, as eympathizingly said to me, and it works a sorrow, it will not be the first that has entored my soul and left its fangs there. roeult what it mn{ to me, It will aot take the responsibility of breaking up the organization and destroying the republican party of the state of New York, IF IT 15 TO BE DEFEAT at the coming election it must be an act of omission of the republican voters, Ican go down bravely with the party thav has favored me aud which I love, serene in the conscious- ness that no act of mine has wrought rueful ruin. Circumstances have forced me 8o far, it would gladden me now to be a candidate of a united and zealous 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 be chief magistrate of the whole people, un- moved by appeals of faction, unans wered by appliances of private in terests, acknowledging no claim of mere partisanship, looking supremely for the good of the commonwealth, Thus far I have assumed that the predictions of my inteflocutors of dis- aster are well founded. I do not con- cede that there is no need of doleful apprehension. The issucs are of too grave comnscquences, too serious for present disappointment and even righteous indignation to lead to per- sistence in & ILL-ADVISED AND FATAL ACTION Republican will reflect, and rofle by showing what will come of demo cratic success will turn aside disaster | by prompting to united and vigorous 1 therefore accept the nomi- natlon and await the result of the can- ut perturbation,” ger then announces that he is in full accord with the resolutions of the conventiol OF civil service he saye: *‘There is no reason why the minor offices of the government should be given to telatives or friends, or de- pendents or objects of sympathy of OMAHA NEB.

There is noed of legislation to remove some obstacles in the way, and some revis- ton of the rules already adopted to render them less scholastic and more practical. JUDGE FOLGER INSTANCES that in the treasury department at Washington promotions has been mado from merit alone, as shown by the records of the service and evidence of head bureaus, anl no one has been taken from without and put in place within it over the heads of those al- ready iu the government employ, save in a few confidential positions, The judge pronounced for the right of municipalities to direct their own affaire, that it is local self-government and for economy in expendituces of public money. The judge adds, ““There can be no question that the artificial water ways of the state should bo preserved. Thay are the means of petition with other bidders for the ¢ trade of the country aud must be kept np therefor, not in the hands of private persons or corpora- tions, which are apt to act chietly for their own benefit, but IN THE HANDS OF where they can bo managed for the public interest, to prevent, to protect and to abate the riger of private ac- tion, The teudency of business af- faira nowadays is to aggravation of capital and 10 its use of repressing in- dividual or weaker enterprises, It is well therefore that tho state with its aggregate power should retain and maintain & means so patent as the canal regulating the carrying trade through the state, so that individuals and companics of slender means may euter into competition with those of greater power and enforce, a5 far as may be, equal and reasonablo facilities of carriage, . Judge Folger in closing his letter, eays, ‘‘I believe that my principles of action will be_commended to good eense, Istand upon them, and on them aloue, as the reason why I am before the people of the state as a candidate for the chief magistracy. If thay are approved—if my public life of twenty years and over gives cause to believe that I will honestly keep on their furtherance—I do confidently expeot that disappointments will be forgotten, that the causes of repul- sion will not lead to abandonment of political ties, and that united and har- monious action will bring about the result that will keep the state of New York in accord with the majoriy of her sister states on the great ques- tions of national policy.” Hepburn Declines gpecial Dispaten to Tur Brr. New Yorg, October 2,—A. B. Hepburn writes deciining the nomi- nation for congreestann at large, NEWSPAPER COMMENTS upon the letters of Folger and Hep- burn: The Tribune says: ‘“The man on the Saratoga ticket whom nobody ob- jected to and with whose nomination everybody was satisfied, finds the scan- dals of the convention too heavy a burden and refuses to siand under them., Hepburn's letter is modest, manly and consistent. He makes no reflections upon the conven- tion that nominated him for congressman at large, but frankly says circumstances have come to light since which prevent republicans from regarding its action as authoritative, He is unwilling to hold the nomina- tion under such circumstances, and so withdraws. He stands all the stron- ger for this with a great majority of republicans. Mr. Folger is not un. willing to hold the nomination under such circumstances. He accepts, and writes two or three columns to tell why. A case entirely clear could have been stated in shorter space, The Herald says: The letter would have been shorter if Mr. Folger had not felt it necossary to attempt to justify to himself and to his friends, a8 well as he could, his acceptance of the nomination, which he 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 of taking their sound and honest advice, Mr, Folger has chosen to ac- cept the nomination, and a large part of his present letter is naturally taken up with a discussion of the question whether tho receiver is roally as bad as the thief. Wo wish for his own soks ho had taken their advice and declined the nomination, which, as they saw and as he seos, and as every one in tho state sees, was procured for him by the most contemptible fraud and forgery. One wrong necessitates another, and the men who compassed Mr, Folger's 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- piring strains of tho Dead March in Saul. Three points of state policy on which Folger dwells most earnestly and intelligently 1u his remarkable letter are the necessity of local self government in our eities, towns and villages, the importance of remitting to primary meetings of the people the choice of delegates who are to represent the people in the organization of political parties and the duty of economy in administration of our state and local affairs. As these three points happen to be the cardinal features of demo- cratic policy, which Graver Cleveland stands pledged to carry into effect, respectable republicans may contem- plate with equanimity the gloomy party prospects which their candidate unfolds to them - — Nearly o Miracle 3, Asenith Hall, Binghamton, N, Y., writes: “I sutfered for several months with & dull pain through left lung and PEOPLE shoulders, 1 lost my spirits, appetite and color, sad could with difficulty keep up all day, My mother proured ‘soe By pock Broon Birrzis; I took them as ¢ rected, and have felt no pain since first week after using themw, and aw now quite well, Méréhafits an‘d The Brightest Lighted, Best Apj of the colebrated for samples.

This right amounts to property cap- able of being enjoyed or transferred, subject to all ordinary rules govern- ing the enjoyment of all other prop- erly, separate and separable from the feo of land. 1t may consequently be protected in the courts, and it is the duty of the possessor to care for his own if trespass be attempted by stran- gers.
