commercial 1drerfis<T: Nothing can
b said here that would add to the
strength Of Mr.. FolReI's dignity. frank
ness, sincerity, and devotion to the Re-
publican party. The duty of the Re.
publicans Is plain: it is to elect their
sioket, and elect it for the reasons that
nave BEEN 50 forcibly stated in this let
tef Of acceptance. There can be no
turning back or aside. The field il be-
fore the Republicans, and they will be
unrue to themselves and their great
party II they do not win it.

New York Civil Service Reform AssOcia-
tion, vays that Judge FolQsr's ability
and character are not in the question.
but his nomination il. That nomina-
tion was procured BY tho combined
power of fraud and patronage. and TO
support IL ct the polls will be to acqui-
esce in fraud and patronage as leRiti-
mate forces in nominating oOnven-
sion. Every good citizen is bound to
resist 70 tho utmost such q wrong to
free institutions, and the only effectual
way in which the voters can be emanci
pated from the corrupt and debasinR
rule of the machine ID to defeat its can
didateS of this class. ! believe that
this will be done decisively by the Re-
pablioan voters of New York and Penn
sylvania At the election this autumn.
They will Gee their party defeated
rather than fraud and the corruption of
rule. This II an evil which
must end in violence unless oonclusively
sradicatsd BY tho people at the polls.
