HOBART'S LETTER.
Republican Nominee for Vice Pres.
 ident Formally Accepts.
views on the Money Question and Free Coinage In Particular-The Tarin Dwelt Upon-Favors sEe-Establishmeut
 of the Homestead Law,

PATERSON, N. J., Sept. l0.-The let. ter of Garrett A. Hobart, accepting the republican nomination for vice presi. dent, was made public yesterday. Con- cerning the financial problem he says;
 The money standard of great nation should pc as hxed and permanent as the nation itself, TO secure and retain the best should be the de- sire Of every right minded citizen. Resting on staple foundations, continuous and unvaryinR certainty of value should be its distinguished characteristic. The experience of all history connrms the truth that every coin, made under any law. howsoever that coin may be stan ped VIII hnaliy command in the markets of the world the exact value of the materials which compose 1t. The dollar of our country, whether or gold or silver, should be of the full value of ioo cents and by so much as any dollar is worth less than this in the market. by precisely that sum will some one be defrauded.
 The free coinage of silver at the ratio of six teen to one. Is policy which no nation has ever before proposed. and it is not to-day per- mitted in any mint in the world-not even in Mexico. It is proposed to make the coinage unlimited, at an absolutely fictitious ratio fixed with no reference to intrinsic value or pledge of ultimate redemption. With silver

Ii Hung Chang Says Free Coinage Here
 Would Benefit Silver Nations.
 BANFF, N. w. T., Sept IA Dr. Horsey, the representative of the Cana dian government, had long inter. view with Ii Hung Chang while en route here. In discussing financial affairs. the viceroy asked many ques- tions, and in turn, was asked for his opinion on the silver question in the United States. He replied: My opin. ioI is, no doubt, different from yours, because look at it from a Chinese standpoint. If a silver president is elected in the United States, it will benefit China, in that it will enhance the value of Chinese silver money, and in like manner, of course, it will ben. eft all the great silver nations.
 Do you think" he was asked, 'that the election of silver president would make a silver dollar worth as much as gold dollar?"
 "No; but it would make it more valuable than it is now"

Chairman Butler Worried About the Up-
 rising of Road POpuIists.
 WASHINGTON, Sept l2.-Senator But. Ter, chairman of the populist national committee, has been giving his atten. ton, since his return from North Caro- lima. to the situation in Kansas, from which state there is much complaint as to the decision of the populists to accept the democratic electoral ticket entire. The senator late yesterday said that he had not arrived at a satis. factory solution of the problem, but he hoped it would be possible to put the matter in more desirable shape soon. He was convinced, however, that it would be unwise to call an- other state popu!ist convention as has been suggested

AwolSe Too Soon.

PROVIDENCE, R. l., Sept i9.-John Hughill, who allowed himself to be buried alive on the theory of hypnotic suggestion induced by Prof. Watson, of London, awoke IA minutes ahead of schedule time, and made it known by pounding upon the coffin, and during his struggles dislocated his knee pan. When he was brought up he lapsed in- to death-like stupor, but was rubbed with whisky and alcohol and revived. He says he will never do it again. When he awoke he imagined he had been buried alive, and this almost crazed him.

Eugene Fields Fondness For Children.


 Eugene Field was a man of gener- ous. tender spirit and boundless sym pa,hy. He gained and held the love of little children and of men and women; for in his writings he appealed to young and old, and every gentle nature responded to the magic of his honest verse.
 He was a great lover of animals, and was constantly making pets of them. He was very fond of birds, but, as he disliked to see them caged, he looked forward to the time when he could add to his new home a good con- servatory, where the birds might find home and fly in and out among the plants. After he had once become attached to pet of any kind, it was exceedingly hard for him to give it up. For several years he paid the board of two old dogs at a farm. Some of his friends thought this a foolish expense; but he said he would not have the dogs killed. as they had been faithful to him in their younger days, and he did not believe in deserting old friends. Several years ago a Jerusalem donkey was given to the Field boys, and they named it Don Cesar de Buena. After they became too old to drive with him, it was a serious question what to do with "Don." For some time he was boarded at livery stable. His board bill soon became quite a serious mat ter. But Mir. Field would not have him sold. for fear that the children's old comrade might fall into unkind hands At last [ friend in Kentucky offered a home for the donkey, and there he is now, spending his last days in luxurious ease on a bluegrass farm.-Martha Nelson Yenowine, in St. Nicholas.

Guest Who Responded to the Announce ment Of His Name

ment or HIS Name
 The beautiful Mrs. Bingham" was ,moug the women who, a hundred rears ago, went from America to Eu- ,ope and, Hike Alexander" spread ,beir "conquests further" The ad- ;sc,ves poured forth at her feet show that she had not only graces of person, hnt those of the mind and heart. She was engaging" possessed of ease and politeness," ''amjable" and "af. able" Even the hairdrcsser, who ,ros most in acquisition on court days in London, had his opinion to offer.
 Well, it does not signify" said he, with twirl of his comb, "but the American ladies do beat the English all to nothing"
 When she returned to Philadelphia society, from her long stay abroad, she kept up state of couruy magnificence more common in the old world than in ,he new. Her residence was luxurious and beautiful, and there she held a salon of her own, made up from the best of fashionable society.
 One incident connected with her sway is exceedingly droll, and might be taken as significant warning against introducing into a republic the customs of another phase of civiliza- ton. She had brought home with her the habit of having her servants an- nounce the name of a guest at different points of his progress from the hall to the dining-room.
 One day there appeared plain re- publican person who was stranger to the innovation. While he was stopping to remove his outer garment, he heard his name called. Again it was re- reated much to his embarrassment, for he was not ready to appear.
 "Coming!" he called, desperately.
 It sounded again, this time at the drawing-room door.
 Coming" he responded, loudly. Coming. as soon as l can get off my great-coat"-Youth's Companion.

ors. We approve Of the refusal of the
Pacific railroad funding bill, and de-
nOunce the efforts Of the present Re-
publican congress TO enact similar
measure,
PENSIONS.
Recognizing the just claims Of de.
serving union soldiers we heartily en-.
dorse the rule OF the present commits
slOner of pensions that no names shall
be arbitrarily dropped from the pen
sion roll; and the fact of enlistment
and service shOnld be deemed con-
elusive evidence against disease and
disability before enlistment.
TERRITORIES.
We favor the admission of the ter
ritorles OF New Mexico, Arizona and
Oklahoma into the United States,
and we favor the early admission OF
all the territories haYing the neces-
sary population and resources to en-
title them TO statehood, and while
they remain territories, we hold that
the officials appointed to administer
the government OF any territory to-
gether with the District of Columbia
and Alaska, should be bona tide resi-
dents of the territory or district In
which the duties are to be performed.
The Democratic party believes In
home rule and that all public lands
OF the United States should be apprO-
priated TO the establishment of free
homes for American citizens. We
recommend that the territory Of
Alaska be granted delegate in con-
gress, and that the general land and
timber laws of the United States be
extended to said territory.
MONROE DOCTRINE.
The Monroe doctrine Is originally
declared and as interp reted by succeed
ing presidents, Is permanent part OF
the foreign policy OF the United
States, and must atal times DO main
talned'
We extend our sympathy to the
people OF Cuba In their heroic strug-
gle for liberty and independence.
THIRD TERM.
We are opposed TO life tenure In the
public service. We favor appoint
ments based upon merit, fixed term Of
Office, and sach an administration OF
the civil service laws as will afford
equal opportunities To all citizens OF
ascertained fitness. We declare IL TO
be the unwrltten law OF this republic,
established by custom and usage OF
one hundred years and sanctioned by
the examples OF the greatest and
wisest Of those who founded and have
maintained our government, that no
man should be eligible for a third
term in the presidential office.
WATERWAYS.
The FEDERAL government should care
for and improve the Mississippi river
and other great waterways of the re-
public, so as TO secure for the interior
states easy and cheap transportation
to tidewater. When any waterway OF
the republic is OF sutiicient import
ance to demand aid OF the govern
ment such aid should be extended up
on a definite plan Of continuous work
until permanent improvement Is
secured.
COnhdiDg In the justice Of our cause
and the necessity Of Its success at the
polls, we submit the foregoing declar-
atlons OF principles and purposes TO
the considerable judgment OF the
American people. We invite the sup
port OF all citizens who approve them
and who desire 10 have them made
effective through legislation for the
relief OF the people and the restoration
Of the cOuntry's prosperity. -
