HARRISON AND CLEVELAND LET
TERs OF ACCEPTANCE.

The two chief candidates for the
presidency, Harrison and Cleveland,
have sent forth their letters Of ac-
ceptance i'm which each has explain
ed his ideas on the important
questions now dividing these two
parties. There are only three days
difference i'm the dates Of the docu-
ments; therefore, there can be no
advantage in the last say. 1t will be
unnecessary to assert that the writer
is a republican and yet he is conf
dent that, as a democratic dOcu-
ment, Clcveland's letter Of accep-
tance is "A strong paper. All the
democrats look upon it as such; and
why should it be otherwise? There
is no question but that the best
talent and wisdom Of the leaders Of
the party have been consulted, and
every sentence, every phrase and
thought fully weighed and cOnsid-
cred, before being used. The letter
also shows that it was 50 made by
its vOlubility on some questions
and nothing to say" on others;
while the facts Of history show that
it has been "a long time under way.
As democratic document in this
campaign it fills the eye of large
majority Of Mr.. Cleveland's sup
porters and is considered just the
proper thing. Many democrats do
not endorse the democratic platform,
and TO those the letter is not consid-
cred very strong paper. Republi-
cans in general look upon the letter
and platform of the democrats as
being weak, and in that sense do so
criticise Cleveland's letter. Harri-
sons letter does not show that
Of work exhibited by Clcve-
lands. II is 4 straightforward,
manly letter. Every note is clear,
and cannot be mistaken. Is is con-
else, not too long and yet long
enough TO fully verall the ground.
As II republican document, follow
ng the republican platform, it could
hardly be surpassed. And yet our
friends pronounce it
light reading" Taken all in all
he two letters are as ably written
nd as good eXponents of their re-
pective parties as should have been
expected.
