MR.. MoKINLEY's ACCEPTANCE.

MR.. MCKINLEY 3 ACCEPIANCE
President McKiDley's letter accept
ing his denomination has been forward
ed to Henry Cabot Lodge, chairman Of
the notification committee.
It is unusually lengthy, the introduc-
tory portion being devoted to what the
President regards as the immediate, il
not the paramount, issue-silver. He
points out that the Chicago platform in
its entirety, including free coinage, Is
reaffirmed, and despite the oppositon's
efforts to subordinate it, 1t is as virile in
1900 as it was in 1896.
Proceeding, he reviews the condition
of the United States Treasury, our in
creased foreign commerce and industri-
al improvement and advocates the
shipping subsidy bill.
As to trusts, he favors a policy OF
publicity and uniform State laws TO
crush dangerous conspiraces. but he
approves OF the honest co operation OF
capital as necessary to meet new bust.
meas conditions. Combinations intend
ed to restrict trade, he said, should be
effectively restained. He promises the
Porto Rcans the annulment of the tar
If on or before March l, 1902, "if the
Legislature OF Porto Rico shall provide
local revenues for the expenses of con-
| Quoting the government" The people
of Cuba shall be given self-governmeDt
as soon as the conditions warrant it.
The remainder of the letter is devot-
ed largely to the Philippine question,
beginning with the cession of the arch
ipelago by Spain and concluding With
the latest report Of the Taft commission
on August 81 last, which noted the prog.
ress being made toward the establish
ment of civil government in the islands.
The President then argues that what
has been done there was the only course
open. Natives having fred on Ameri-
can troops before the conclusion OF the
treaty OF peace, it was necessary to re-
store order, and he asks why those who
favored the signing OF the Peace Treaty
and acquiesced in the payment of $780,
900, 600 to Spain through their Senators,
should now raise objection TO the results.
He asks what the opposition could and
would have done were it in the same
position. To establish a protectorate
instead OF sovereignty, he argues,
would entail interference by other ma
tons, which would, perhaps, develop
another and more serious war and drift
to militarism pure and simple, by the
necessity of sending larger army and
navy 10 the islands.
The President denies that there is
any imperialism, and that those VINO
raise this cry are encouraging the Fill
pinos, who are guaranteed the same
rights as any other freedmen under the
Constitution.
He concludes by saying the American
question is between dnty and desertioD,
and the American verdict will be for
the Republic against both anarchy and
imperialism.
