he said:
Maine can be safely counted for Harrison In
November. The republicans are thoroughly
organized and there are no discussions in the
party. Political campaigns in Maine are always
intelligently conducted and careful canvasses
are made. Estimates Of strength are not mere
guesses and 'he danger Of cyclones is infini-
testimal. Harrison is stronger in Maine today
than he in lsss Why should he not be?
In 1855 he had not been tried. while now be

THE PRESIDENTS LETTER,
tWin Be Given Out This Evening-Som
Points He Will Make.

1t has now been definitely announced that the
Presidents letter of acceptance will be given
out at O'Clock this evening The letter con-
tains about 8 900 words. 1t is understood to be
the Presidents intention not to make any
speeches during the campaign, and this letter
will be his one address to the public on the
issues During the last campaign NJ. Har-i-
son made large number of speeches. begin
ming soon after the convention, when visitors
began calling on him at Indianapolis.
Now he does not feel that he
is in position to do this. Being President
he feels that he should follow different course.
He intends, therefore, to devote himself strictly
to the duties of the office during the campaign,
and to let this letter be his speech for the
whole campaign. 1t Is for this reason that he
has made the letter voluminous. touching upon
every point at issue, and clearly presenting the
position Of his party. With his facility in con-
densation, it may be appreciated that he goes
over great deal Of ground in 5000 words.
THE TARIFF AND FINANCE.
As stated Saturday, the principal discussion
is of the tariff and finance, and there is a COM
paratively small space occupied by the federal
election question. He goes very fully into the
discussion of what has been done under the
Mckinley tariff act and dwells at length upon
the operations Of the reciprocity clause
He handles this question with marked ability,
drawing all there is to the benefit of his
party from the reciprocity feature. A review
of the administration comes in incidentally in
connection with the discussion of the prosecu-
tion of the party policy as to the tariff, recip-
rocity, finance and as to the relations of the
United States with foreign countries. He
points out the benefits of the tariff measure to
domestic manufactures, and its favorable in
fuence on business the increased foreign trade
through the operation of the reciprocity policy,
and speaks generally of the strongly American
policy Of the party administration as to the
relations with foreign nations. On these sub
jects he finds broad ground for congratula-
tions.
HONEST ELECTIONS.
In dealing with the federal election question
he tries to avoid presenting it rs q partisan
matter, considering ..honest elections as the
desideratum Of all parties. He neither avoids
this question nor presses it forward as an issue.
The President expects to return to Washing
ton to remain by Thursday or Friday of next
week.
