THE PRESIDENTS LETTER.
He Accepts the Nomination and
Defines the Issues.

He Accepts the Nomination and
Defines the Issues.
The letter of President Harrison ac-
cepting the nomination rendered him
by the National Republican conven-
ton at Chicago was given to tue daily
papers yesterday evening and appears
in this mornings press reports. 1t is
too voluminous to be published in an
afternoon sheet. AS was expected by
the country, which has become accus-
toned to the Presidents man ner Of
writing, the letter is plain. explicit,
business like, deals openly with all
questions of public concern, and
leaves no one in dou bt as to his views.
There is no confliction at any point
with the national platform. His re-
view of the work of the democratic
congress as to the attempted repeal OF
tax on state banks is mastery and he
ably defends the republican banking
legislation as preventing al the evils
OF wild cat banking from which the
country suffered before the war.
The necessity of building up our
merchant Marine. aud the work done
by the repu oliosns In congress to
that end, at present intermitted
through democratic hostility thereto,
Is set forth.
The reciprocity policy Of the repub-
lican party and Its beneficent effects
in charging our trade with other
nations, is dwelt upon and the party's
principle of protection to home in
dustries unanswerably defended.
The working of the present tariff law
il SHOWN, as seen in the reports Of
the investigating committees ap.
pointed by congress, and in IT,
statistics of the industrial associa-
tions, and the truth made plain that
the present tariff system has resulted
in the increased purchasing power of
laborer's daily wages, and that
such purchasing power is today
greater than IN any other country or
at any former period in this country.
The new industries that have b sen
Directly planted by the present re-
publican tariff law are referred to and
the fact stated that lew articles made
by foreign pauper labor are coming
into competition with our own work
men.
The interest of the Southern states
In main tanning this policy of home
protection is clearly and ably set
forth, as also the advantages that will
come to them through the opening of
the Nicaragua canal, a distinctively
repu blican measure.
The letter heartily approves the
sentiments OF the national republican
convention on the silver question; re.
ters to the need of q pure and I'M
| trammeled ballot and cites Ala
bama in its late demcc at G conten-
ton as affording ample proof that the
free ballot and fair count" of
the rerub lican demand does not OBJ
tain there. These are the salient
points OF q letter of acceptance that
will be read with satisfaction by the
business men of the country. Ii Is
safe, progressive, direct, conservative,
patriotic and eminently practical;

HOW THEY KISS.

The Norfolk girl on tip-toe stands,
Her lips so rosy and red,
You take her cheeks in both your hands
And let her go, Gallagher's dead.
The Richmond girl closes her dreamy eyes
When asked to osculate,
And lets the vandal steal the kiss
Which she really likes hrst-rate.
The Harrisonburg girl, SO gentle and sweet,
Lets her lips meet the coming kiss
With rapturous warmth, and the youthful
souls
Float away on the sea of bliss
The Greenville girl, round and plump,
Whether wife, widow or miss,
Looks into your eyes with her bright orbs
And puts her whole soul in a kiss.
The Staunton girl will at first refuse
Just to have you insist and plead,
But when she finally does consent
Her kiss, you'll confess takes the lead.
Bnt when you want the sweetest kiss
Ever given to son of man,
Ask the Shendun girl to show you how s'ti'
49, done, :. st
= For she knows the slickest plan.
The normal girl when the chance is given
I! Sits under the spreading oak, So
She opens her mouth and shuts her eyes
And Ta-ra-ra Boom-ter-ra.
Yes, Ta-ra-ra Boom terra,
The Staunton boy never fails to stay
Fondly embraced with nothing to say
Yum, yum, Ta-ra-ra Boom-ter-ra.

Mr.. Hildreth wrote that he must resign

A REPUBLICANS PICTURE OF THE
REPUBLICANS PARTY.-Col. John w.
Wolff, Republican, editor of the Fred
ericksburg Free Lance, gives the fol-
lowing pen-and-ink sketch of the pres
ent Republican party
1.-THE Republican party has no longer
any reason for its existence save the at
tractive glitter of public plumber. 1t
has served its purpose and outlived it's
day Its leaders are either selfish seek
ers after public office like Harrison and
Wanamaker, or subservient tools of
monopolistic corporations like McKin-
ley and Aldrich. It has no policy save
the piling up of wealth in the hands of
few. Its only statesman, the man
whose genius might have. elaborated
new issues and policies, has been ruth
lessly retired from public life, and
small man with a big head sits at the
head of political organization, whose
now purifying corpse was once amin
ated by the genius of Lincoln, and to
whose efforts the genius of Stevens,
Sumner, Seward and Chase lent an un-
dying lustre, and it is but this ignis
.tatuus of dead past that allures thou
sands of voters yet

The Private Life of the Pope.

In summer, as in winter, Leo Kill. is
awakened at six by his private servant,
Francesca Contra, from Carpeneto.
Contra knocks at the door, opens the
blinds, addresses customary salute to
his master, and at once retires. The
Pope gets up from bed unaided, and
also performs his toilet unaided, except
as regards shaving. This operation is
performed by this faithful Contra. The
bedroom is not the one used as such by
his predecessors; it is small and rath
er low cell in the N1ezzG71I7lO or entire sol,
to which he repaired many years ago
in the course of some RESERVATIONS to
the old room, and where he has remain
ed ever since. At seven o'clock he says
his mass, attended by two cGppell071i
segreti, and hears second mass cele-
brated by one of the same attendants,
who act also as private secretaries. 1t
happens sometimes that the Pope, hav-
ing been troubled with Esleeplessness,
gets up with a piece of Latin or Italian
poetry composed during the wakeful
hours. The verses are generally dictat-
ed to one of the secretaries before the
mass. The breakfast of the Pope con-
sists of coffee, milk, and bread without
butter. Soon after the official recep
ton begins. The first one, as a rule,
is given to the Cardinal Secretary of
State who submits to the Holy Father
the documents received the day before.
or those which are awaiting the pontif
ical signature. This audience lasts
more than an hour, and takes place ev
cry day except Tuesdays and Fridays,
which are set apart for the reception
of the diplomatic body. Cardinals,
heads of congregations, generals OF
mOnastic orders, strangers of distinc-
ton, are received later in the day. 1t
is to be regretted that Leo XIII. does
not accord private audiences as often
as his predecessors did. Many strang
ers are obliged to leave Rome without
having been able to see the Holy Faith
err. In winter, if the sun shines, the
receptions are interrupted for while
fora walk or a drive of haitian hour in
the Vatican gardens. Leo XIII. dimes
at one o'clock in the old Roman style.
The dinner is composed of a soup, gen
orally pate d. ItGlie, a roast, yegeta-
BILE, very often fried potatoes, and
fruit. Plus TX. was very. fond of boiled
meat, which was served daily in a triple
form,-boiled chicken, boiled beef, and
boiled mutton. This plate is blanish-
ed from Leos table, as well as bacon
and cheese. The only wine served is
old Bordeaux. The Pope is very apt to
glance over the journals at meal times

Who Furnishes the Money?

The Lynchburg VirginSan says
The Virginia Sun, published at Rich
mond, claims to be the Alliance organ
of the State
1t is edited by Mr.. Pierson, an official
of the State Alliance, and formerly q
Republican.
The Virginia San is now being scat
tered over the State broadcast as a
Third-party campaign sheet.
In addition to it's regular bona fide
circulation-for we assume that it has
such culation-thousands of copies
are being distributed gratuitously
among the people Of the rural districts
Now it takes money to distribute
papers gratuitously by the thousand,
and the question arises whose money
is Mr. Pierson using in conducting this
peculiar campaign of education" the
only object of which appears to be to
deceive Democratic voters and induce
them to forswear their party allegiance?
Certainly not his own money, for if we
understand his position he is working
on salary. Certainly not the money
of the Alliance, for the authorities of
that organization would not tolerate
such misuse of it's funds. Z
From what source then does the
money come? Hardly from the Third
party organization, for it is not in evil
dence as yet that it has raised suffi-
cient campaign fund to ''go around"
Can it be that it comes from the same
source that Kolb's $4,000 campaign
fund came from in Alabama-the Re-
publican National Committee? We
do not say that it does, but merely ask

The Third party people are very fond
of abiding to the Democratic party as
1.-THE so-called Democracy" 1t is the
same old party that it was when. Vlr-
ginia was suffering from the horrors of
reconstruction, and which stood by
her, and all the South, when Ben But
Ter and Ben Harrison both were SO anx-
ious to fasten upon her the chains of
Bayonet rule and Negro domination.
1t is also the same old party which has
always championed the cause of the
people against oppression and monop-
oily, and which has always opposed any
new-fangled will-o'-the- which has
shown itself to lure the people to their
own destruction. 1t is not the Demo
cratic party that has changed, but is
