Beverly, Mass,
Sept Is, 1888.
Sir: I am in receipt Of your letter OF the
4th inst, and beg to say that fully sppre-
ciate the difficulty in which you find yourself
in casting your vote. You are probably aware
that any political party which openly favored
the mother country at the present moment
would lose popularity, and that the party in
power is fully aware of this fact. The party,
however, is, believe, still DESTROYS OF main-
tanning friendly relations with Great Britain.
and is still as DESTROYS of settling all questions
with Canada, which have been unfortunately
reopened since the retractien Of the treaty BY
the Republican majority in the Senate, and BY
the Presidents message, to which you Allude,
All allowances must, therefore, be made for the
political situation as regards the PRESIDENTIAL
election thus created. 1t is, however, impos-
sible to predict the course which president
Cleveland may pursue in the matter OF retalia-
ton, should he be elected; but there is every
reason to believe that, while unfolding the
position he has taken, he will manifest spirit
of Cancellation in dealing with the question in
volved in his message. l enclose an article
from 1.-THE New York Times" OF August 20
and remain,
Yours faithfully,
l.. S. SACKVILLE WEST.
