NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-IIon. Levi l.. Nor

Of which the following is the substance:
/. la making his formal acceptance OF the
canh.dtcy Tor vice president, he refers to
the Resolutions adopted by the national
convention - an unoquiyocnl and com
prehensiye embodiment of his ownv views.
He then goes on to say in regard to the
tariff and our growing Industries:
The Republican platform, while recog-
niziilg the necessity OF reducing the reve-
nuc, declares that this reduction must not
he made ut the expense of these indus
tries and of American labor.
The American people have now en-
joycd the protective system for n longer
coniil IONS period than ever before in the
history of the national government. The
result Is that for more than a quarter of
Il century they have realized II degree of
industrial and financial prosperity unprc-
cedeEtcl in this county and never

HE pressing reason lur once Eguin try
ing the old experiment Of II revenue tariff
without protection as Il motive or end ia
that the present tariff has produced, and
is producing, Il surplus in the treasury.
But is it not easily within the wisdom of
congress TO adjust the national income to
the national expenditure without sacri-
ticing or even importing an industrial
system which has brought untold adynn-
tagcs To the cutire country.
To the men who earn their bread bv
the sweat OF their brow the difference be-
tween the two systems is that of narrow

The Republican platform proposes u
distinctly American policy: not one of
narrowness and b;gotry, hut one broad

helps the whole world by the example
of Il great, growing. powerful nation,
founded Oh the equality of every man
before the law,
1t is for the American people to de-

which i'll the providence OF God they have

which looks steadily TO this great end.
With no spirit of narrowness toward

$l.25 to $3.50.
When the board opened this morning
it was given out by Old Hutch that he
had no wheat for sale less than 50. The
