Neg9igee Shirts.

A'SShASS O'HSa @os 3
The first thing that appeals to
the average man in buying negligee
shirts is the color this is important.
The second consideration is the de
sign or figure; this also is important,
but the most important features by
far are the materials and the man
ner in which the shirts are cut, made
and finished. It's surprising how
much time is spent in getting these
details down to perfection.
Our shirts are made for us by
one of the best makers in this co,n-
try; and that means that cloth,
make and colors are the best that
can be had for the prices asked.
Prices range from $I.oo to $3.50.

Oyster Bay. Sept. 11.-President Roosevelt tomorrow will transmit to Hon. Joseph G. Cannon. Chairman of the Notification Committee. the follow Ing letter accepting the nomination of the Republican Party for the Presi- dency: .--..
 Oyster Bay.
 September 12, 1904.
 Hon. J. G. Cannon, Chairman of the Mo-
 tification Committee. f
 My Dear Sir:-I accept the nomina- tion for the presidency tendered me by the Republican National Convention, and cordially approve the platform adopted by it. In writing this letter there are certain points upon which l desire to lay especial stress.
 It Is dificult to find out from the ut terances of our opponents what are the real issues upon which they propose to wage this campaign. It Is not un. fair to say that. having abandoned most of the principles upon which they have insisted during the last eight years, they now seem at loss. both as to what 1t Is that they really be- lieve. and as to how firmly they shall assert their belief in anything. In fact, 1t is doubtful if they venture res- olutely to press a. single issue; as soon as they raise one they shrink from 1t and seek to explain it away. Such an attitude is the probably inevitable re- suit of the effort to improvise convic- tions: for when thus improvised. 1t is

they should have gone one step further and congratulated the country upon the way in which the Civil Service law Is now administered. and the way in which the classified service has been extend ed. The exceptions from examinations ari fewer by far than ever before, and are confined to individual cases, where the application of the rules would be impracticable, unwise. unjust or un- necessary The administration of the great body of the classified civil service Is free from politics, and appointments and removals have been put upon a business basis.
 Statistics show that there is little difference between the tenure of the Federal classified employees and that of the employees of private business cor- porations. Less than per cent. of ths classified employees are over 70 years ofs age. and in the main the service rend- cred is vigorous and efficient. Where the merit system was of course most needed was in the Philippine Islandsi and civil service law of very ad. vanced type has there been put into op- eration and scrupulously observed. Without one exception every appoint. ment in the Philippines has been mAda in accordance with the strictest stand ard of fitness. and without heed to any other consideration.
 Hard to Restrain Himself.
 Finally, we come to certain matters upon which our opponents do in their pie tform of principles definitely take issue with us, and where, If they are sincere. their triumph would mean disaster to the country. But exactly as 1t is impossible to call attention to the present promises and past record of our opponents without seeming ofSen- sive so 1t is impossible to compare their platform with their other and later official utterances and not create doubt as to their sincerity. Tn their private or unofficial utterances many of them frankly advance this insincer- ity as merit, taking the position that as regards the points on which I am about to speak they have no intention of keeping their promises or of depart ing from the policies now established. and that therefore they can be trusted not to abuse the power they seek

ed to native born citizens" In issuing passports the State Department never discrimnated, or alludes to any mans religion; and in granting to every American citizen. native or natural ized, Christian or Jew. the same pass port. SO far as 1t has power 1t in- sists that all foreign governments shall accept the passport as prima facie proof that the person therein de- scribed Is a citizen of the United States and entitled to protection as such.
 It is a standing order to every Amer ican diplomatic and consular officer to protect every American citizen of whatever faith. from unjust molesta- tion; and our officers abEoad have been stringently required to comply with this order.
 Ignorance or Inslncerity.
 Under such circumstances. the de- mand of our opponents that negotia- tions be begun to secure equal treat ernments which do not now accord 1t. shows either ignorance of the facts or insincerity No change of policy fin the method or manner of negotiations would add effectiveness to what the State Department has done and Is do- ing. The steady pressure which the department has been keeping up In the past will -e continued in the future. This administration has on all proper occasions given clear expression to the belief of the American people that dis crimination and oppression because of religion. wherever practised. are acts of injustice before God and man: and in making evident to the world the depth of American convictions in this regard we have gone to the very limit of diplomatic usage
 It is a striking evidence of our op- ponents insincerity in this matter that with their demand for radical action by the State Department they couple a demand for a reduction in our small military establishment. Yet they must know that the heed to our protests against ill-treatment of our citizens will be exactly proportionate to the be- lief in our ability to make these pro- tests effective should the need ariso

 If there Is doubt upon this point let the doubter examine the employees do- ing manual labor in any great manu- factory or on any great railroad, and find out how large is the proportion of men between the ages of sixty-two and seventy, and whether theso men are still employed at the highly paid tasks which they did in their prime. As a matter of fact. many railroads pension their employees when they have reached these ages. and in nations where old age pensions prevail they always begin somewhere between the two limits thus set. It is easy to test our opponetns sincerity in this mat ter The order in question Is revoca- ble at the pleasure of the executive. If our opponents come Into power they can revoke this order and announce that they will treat the veterans of sixty-two to seventy as presumably in full bodily vigor and not entitled to pensions. Will they now authoritative- ly state that they intend to do this2 If so. we accept the issue.

Careful and Moderate.

l unU MOueFhtes
 Under our form of government the
 sphere in which the Nation as distin- guished from the State can act Is mar l rowly circumscribed; but within that
 sphere all that could be done has been | done. All thinking men are aware of
 the restrictions upon the power of ac
 ton of the National Government in
 such matters. Being ourselves mind
 full of them we have been scrupulously
 careful on the one hand to keep these 1 promises in letter and spirit.
 Our opponeSts have been hampered | by no such considerations They | have promised. and many of them now promise action which | they could by no possibility take in the exercise of constitutional power, l and which, if attempted. would bring business to a standstill; they have used, l and often now use. language of wild | invective and appeal to all the baser passions which tend to excite one set of Americans against their fellow Americans; and yet whenever they have had power they have fittingly supple. mented this extravaganza of promise by absolute nullity in performance. Protection of Travellers.
 This Government is based upon the Fundamental idea that each man, no matter what his ocupation, his race, or his religious belief, is entitled to be treated on his worth as a man. and neither favored nor discriminated against because of any accident in his position. Even here at home there is painful difficulty in the effort to realize this ideal; and the attempt to secure from other nations acknowledgment of 1t sometimes encounters obstacles that are we'll nigh insuperable: for there arc many nations which in the slow procession of the ages have not yet reached that point where the principles which Americans regard as aximotic obtain any recognition whatever. One of the chief difficulties arises in connection with certain American citizens of for eign birth. or of particular creed, who desire to travel Russia, for instance. refuses to admit and protect Jews. Turkey refuses to admit and protect certain sects of Christians
 This government has consistently demanded equal protection abroad for all American citizens. whether native or naturalized. March 27, 1899, Secre- tary Hay sent a letter of instructions to all the diplomatic and consular of flers of the United States in which he said: This department does not dis criminate between native born and naturalized citizens in according them protection while they are abroad, equality of treatment being required by the laws of the United States"
 No Discrimination Made.
 These orders to our agents abroad have been repeated again and again. and gre treated as the Fundamental rule of conduct laid down for them. proceeding upon the theory that all naturalized citizens of the United States while In foreign countries, are entitled to and shall receive from this government the same protection of persons and property which is accord-

Capital and Labor.


 As for what our opponents say in ual or corporate, here again all we need by way of answer is to point to what we have actually done, and to say that tinue to carry out the policy we have he en pursuing, and to execute the laws as resolutely and fearlessly in the fu- ture as we have executed them in the past. In my speech of acceptance I said:
 We recognize the organization Of capital and the organization of labor as natural outcomes of our industrial system. Each kind of organization Is to be favored so long as 1t acts in 4 spirit of justice and of regard tor the rights of others. Each Is to De S.ant ed the full protection of the law. and each in turn is to be held to q strict obedience to the law; for no man is above 1t and no man below It. Tho humblest individual is to have his rights safeguarded as scrupulousIy as those of the strongest organization. for each Is to receive justice, no more and no less The problems with which we have to deal in our modern industrial and social life are manifold; but tho spirit in which 1t Is necessary to an proach their solution it simply the spirit Of honesty. of courage and of common sense"
