MAI. CHARLES NJ. STEDMAN.
From the Hickory Press.

Though comparatively a young man
he has attained the highest position
as a lawyer and as man of business
in the city of Wilmington. He was
for several years president of the bank
of New Hanover-the largest banking
institution in the State. That position
he was compelled to relinquish on ac-
count of the demands Of large and
lucrative lay practice. He is thor
ough business man, an effective speak
er and brimful of energy. Whatever
he undertakes he will do thoroughly.
Maj. Stedman is besides gentleman
Of pleasing address, and will make
friends wherever he goes.
Like Maj. Hughes, he halls from a
section overwhelmed by hordes of
Radicals. The most important COM
mercial city in the State, with its twen-
ty thousand inhabitants, with its
banks, its heavy investments of capi-
tai in commercial enterprises, its rail
roads and its noble, refined and patri-
otic population is practically without
represen tation in the General Assem-
bly,. A recognition of the importance
of those interests could not be made
more properly than by nominating a
man who is a true representative OF
them to the second Office in the State
| Government.

dency.
To those who think my re-nomina-
ton and reelection indispensable to an
effectual vindication Of the right Of
the people to elect their rulers-viola-
ted in my person. have accorded as
long reserve of my decision as pos
sible, but l connot overcome my re-

The dignity of the Presidential Of
fee is above merely personal ambi-
ton, but it creates in me no illusion.
Its value Is as great power for good
to tho country. [ said four yeays ago
in accepting the nomination:
Knowing as I do, therefore, from
fresh experience, how great the diff
ference is between gliding through All
official routine and working out a re-
form of systems and policies, it is i'm
possible for me to contemplate what
needs to be done in the Federal Ad-
ministration without an anxious sense
of the difficulties of the undertaking.
IF summoned by the suffrages of my
countrymen to attempt this work, L
shall endeaver, with Gods help to be
efficient instrument of their will.
Such a work of renovation after
many years of misrule, such a reform
of systems and policies, to which l
would cheerfully sacrifice all that
remained to me of heath and life, is
now [ fear beyond my strength.
My purpose to withdraw from fur
ther public service and the grounds of

ton of New York because it was sup
posed that in that way onl y could the
Executive power be arrayed on the
side of the reforms to which, as pri-
vate citizen, l had given three years
of my life.
l accepted the nomination for the
Presidency in 1876 because of the gen.
eral conviction that my candidacy
would best present the issue of reform
which the Democratic majority of the
people desired to have worked out in
the Federal Government as it had
been in that of the State of New York.
/ belived that l had strength enough
then to renovate the administration Of
the government of the United States,
and at the close of my term to hand
over the great trust to a successor
faithful to the same policy.
Though anxious to Geek the repose
of private life, nevertheless acted up
ON the idea that every power is trust
and involves duty. In reply to the
address of the committee communica-
ting my nomination, I depicted the
difficulties of the undertaking, and
likened my feelings in engaging in to
those Of soldier entering battle, but
did not withhold the entire conse-
| Grafton of my powers to the public
| service.
Twenty years of continuous mal-ad-
| minstration, under the demoralizlng
| influences of intestine war and of bad
finance, have infected the whole gov
ernmental system of the United States
with the caucerous growths of false
constructions and corrupt practices.
Powerful classes have acquired pecun-
ary interests in official abuses, and the
moral standards of the people have
been impaired. To redress these evils
is work of great difficulty and labor
and cannot be accomplished without
the most energetic and efficient per-
sonal action on tho part of the Chief
Executive of the Republic.
The canvass and administration
which it is desired that / should un-
dertake would embrace period of
nearly five years. Nor can l admit
any illusion az to their burdens. Three
years of experience in the endeavor to
reform the municipal government OF
the city of New York and two years
of experience in renovating the admin
; istration of the State of New Yolk
have made me familiar with the re-
quirements of such work.
At the present time, the eonsidera
tions which induced my action in 1886
have become imperative. | ough

believe there is no instrumental
ly in human society so potential in its
influence upon mankind for good
or evil as the governmental machinery
for administering justice and for ma
king and executing laws. Not all the
eleemosynary institutions of private
benevolence to which philanthropists

For fifty years as a private citizen,
never contemplating an official career,
I have devoted at least as much
thought and effort to the duty of in
fiuencing Alright the action of the gov
