Letter OF Acceptance.

PARKERsBURG, WEST VA Sept. 81.
To Chairman Of National Grecnback
Labor Senatorial Convention.
SIR: At my earliest opportunity
| deem it proper to acknowledge
your favor, notifying me of my nom
ination as the candidate for the
Senate.
regret very much that our no
bic champion, Col. Washington
Smith could not make the race, as
he is man eminently fitted to
represent the farmers Of this State
in the Senate, and it Is with ex-
IRENE reluctance that | take his
place in the contest.
have not sought this position,
as | am no politician and have no
aspirations for office, but as you
have thought proper to impose the
duty upon me, | accept it in the
spirit in which it has been rendered.
[ am Greenback and Labor adj
vocate from principle. The first
vote | ever cast was for Peter Coop
er, the noble patriot of the party
and the friend Of the laboring man.
According to my convictions, the
only hope Of the country is in the
success of the National Greenback
Labor Party, and as it seems so
difficult for men who have so long
worked in the harness of the old
Democratic and Republican parties
to break the letters of party and
look simply to the best interest of
the country, place my hopes of
success greatly upon the support
Of the young men Of this country,
who are now just taking the start
in politics. And appeal to them
irrespective of the prediudices of
their early training, to come out
on the side Of their country and
vote for that party the motto of
which is the greatest amount of
human happiness consistent with
liberty and unity.
In regard to State politics, I can
only say that | am in favor of such
measures as will reduce the num-
Der of offices and curtail the bur-
dens Of taxation. Being no poll
tic:an, I have little skill in but
ton-holeing the people, and shall
not, therefore attempt it. At the
same time I will feel grateful to all
who deem me worthy to represent
them, for their suffrages.
[ shall enter this contest with
out the slightest i'll will to my wor-
thy competitors and shall endeavor
to treat them as gentlemen. AS
the time is short, l may not be
able to make as thorough a canvass
of the District as | could desire,
but will do my best to reach the
largest part of it.
Very Respectfully,
GEORGE i. SPENCE.

FITZGERALD WINS THE RACE.
END OF THE sIX-DAYS' WALK.

ONLY FOUR MEN CONTINUE TO THE LAsI-THE AZ
FAIR FINANCIAL FAILURE.
The six-days walking match came to an end last
night at 10 o'clock. The winner Patrick Fitz-
gerald made a score of 572 2-s miles, which IS 70
miles less than the distance covered by Hazael IN

through the week was small and the finish was

Noremac went 10 his hackers house
at No. 1l2 Rector-st, ard Hughes went
to his home in East Ninety -third-st.
Financially the walk was q failure 10 was ex-
pected that the race would be the most successful
one yet held on account of the men who were TO be
the contestants and the fact of the rivalry between
Hazael and Rowell the two Engshmen. After
they withdrew on the fourth day, the interest That
had been manifested porceptiby decreased, ana the
attendance was very small during the re,
mainder of the rnce The managers would
not make statement yesterday OF me
receipts or expenses 1t Is estimated that the
expenses will be not far from $4,000 This IN
udes $4,000 for rent the pay roll and the cost OF
alterations in the building, the track, etc. IL IS
SAID that the receipts from the box Office and the
sale of privileges will little more than pay ex-
penses leaving only pittance for the men. Flz-
gerald Will get 20 per cent Of
the sweepstakes, which amount 10 $500
The scores at the finish as follows:
