Hancock On the Tariff Oaes,ia.

apOnOence was made pubic last night:
MoRRIsTowS, Oct. 1l.1SS0.-My Dear Gene,
Al: My attention is called to an interview @
reported interview had with you by a perso
representing the PdterSon G1ardian, this State
As read the report 1t seems to ME Won Wer
very imperfectly understood and very indiffer
emily reported. l came to the conclusion, be
cause of my knowledge of your views upon tn
tariff question, that tue report does You injus
tlce- The subject is one which our manufac
turing friends are very solicituous about. ans
very properly so. l regret that your view
upon the tariff question, as understand then
20 be, had not found fuller expression ir
your letter OF acceptance. If misrepresenta
tons of your tariff views continue. would i
not be wise and just to take some action te
put yourself right. Very truly yours,
THos +. RANDOLPH.

GoVERNoR's ISLAND Oct. I2-My Dear Gov.
ernor; have received your favor of the 1lth
INST 10 my letter of acceptance L expressed
fulI sympathy with our American industries
and thought spoke plainly enough to
satisfy our Jersey friends. Regarding
tariff views am too sound an American
to advocate departure from the general
features OF the policy that has been SO instru-
mental IN building up our Industries and keen
ing Americans from the competitions of the
underpaid labor of Europe. If we intend to
remain honest and pay the public debt as good
people OF all parties do. and if we mean TO ad-
minister the functions of government, then we
must ralse revenue in some way or other
With reunited and harmonious country we
snail certainly IN time pay off the public debt,
put the necessity of raising money for the ad-
minlst-ation of the government VIII continue
as long as human nature lasts. All parties
agree that the best way for Us to raise revenue
Is largely BY tariff. So far as we are concerned.
therefore, ell talk about free trade is folly, but
the tariff question will probably be treated
with Justice to all our interests and people by
some such bill as Eaton's. l believe that q
commission OF intelligent experts, respecting
Doth the g)Ternment and American industries
viii suggest tariff measures that will relieve us
OF any crudities and Inconsistencies existing
In the present laws, and confirm to us the sys-
Gem whiod will be judicious, just, harmonious
and incidentally protective. as well as stable in
It's effects am very truly yours,

New YORK, Oot. lG.-The Republican nation
al committee has issued the following ad.
dress:
To the Republican voters of the nm
ion: The elections of Tuesday last clearly
show that with continued zeal and systematic
eH0rt the Republican triumph in November
Will be complete and overwhelming. The pIu
rallty IN Ohio IS about % 000 being gain of
o,U00 over the exceptionally large plurality of
1879, while the election of fifteen to twenty
congressman gives us gain of six members.
Oar plurality IN Indiana reaches about 7OO0
being gain of 81 900 on the Democratic ulu.
rallty ~ 1878. In the legislature we have a.
majority OF fourteen, in contrast with the
Democratic majority of twenty six in the last
legislature, thus gaining United States Sena.
tor. OF the thirteen Congressional dis.
tricts, nine have been carried. MAKING n gs;,
OF three members. The result in the Eastern
States and especially in Ohio, is the conclusive
answer or the people 70 the false and malig-
nant assaults upon the personal char acter of our
candidate for President, which have thus far
been the principal weapons of our opponents
and have been Indecentiy and shamelessIy re-

were purposely retained in force by Demo-
cratic judicial outrage
1t Is apparent from these results that if the
Republicans relax no exertion every Northern
State will choose Republican Presidential elec.

the Southern States will give their votes for
