JUDGE PARKER's ACCEPTANCE

Discusses the Situation From the Dem.
ocratic Viewpoint.
Judge Parker's speech of acceptance
was as follows:
Mr.. Chairman and Gentlemen Of the
Committee have resigned the office
Of chief judge of the court of appeals
Of this state in order that / may ac-
cept the responsibility that the great
convention you represent has put upon
me, without possible prejudice to the
court to which had the honor to be-
long, or to the eminent members Of the
judiciary Of this state, of whom may
now say as private citizen / am just
" proud.
Al the very threshold of this re-
sponse. and before dealing with other
subjects, / must in justice to myself.
and to relieve my sense of gratitude,
express my profound appreciation Of
The confidence reposed in me by the
convention. After nominating me and
subsequently receiving communica-
non declaring that I considered the
gold standard as firmly and irrevoca-
bly, established, a matter concerning
which felt it incumbent upon me TO
make known my attitude. SO that here
after no man could justly say that his
support had been secured through in
direction or mistake, the convention
reiterated its determination that II
should be the standard bearer of the
party in the present contest. This
mark Of trust and confidence I shall
ever esteem as the highest honor that
could be conferred upon mean honor
that whatever may be the fate of the
campaign, the future can in no de-
gree lessen or impair.
The admirable platform upon which
The party appeals to the country for its
confidence and support clearly states
tile principles which were so well con-
densed in the first inaugural address
Of President Jefferson, and points out
with forceand direction the course to
be pursued through their proper appli-
cation in order to insure needed reforms
IN both the legislative and adminis-
Tative departments of the govern
ment While unhesitating in its prom
use to correct abuses and to right
wrongs whenever they appear or how
ever caused; to investigate the sew
era administrative departments of the
government, the conduct of whose Of
acials has created scandals. and to |
punish those who have been guilty Of
a breach of their trust; to oppose the
granting Of special privileges by which
tne few may profit at the expense Of
the many; to practice economy in the
expenditure Of the moneys of the peo-
pie; and to that end to return once
more to the methods of the founders of
me republic, by observing in disburs-
ing the public funds the care and eau
lion a prudent individual observes
with respect to his own; still, the spirit
Of the platform assures conservative
instead of rash action; the protection
@ the innocent as well as the punish
ment Of the guilty; the announcement
Of industry, economy and thrift; the
protection Of property and guarantee

DAROANELLES QUESTION.
Diplomats interested in Russ IS Ac@
ton in the Red Sea

St Petersburg. July % The first
impression in diplomatic circles that
the action Of the Russian volunteer
fleet vessels. in stopping neutral
ships in the Red sea to search for
contraband of war. would not give
rise to complications. is being super.
seeded by tho impression, which there
is good reason to believe is well
founded that instigated by Great
Britain, it will AT least lead 70 IN
interchange of views between the
powers signatory to the treaty OF
Paris regarding the status of the re-
manning ships OF the volunteer fleet
nov in the Black sea.
Thus the old question OF the Darda.
nelles may again become TIL" subj-cr
of important diplomatic eomr1unica-
tions Great Brtian's shippi3g being
the most directly involved, the indi-
cations are that she will insist upon
a definition of the status OF the Voun-
teer vessels still IN the Black sea. AS
q forcible reminder of what stopping
British ships involves, it is likely
that Great Birtans preliminary move
may be the presentation OF claims for
demurrage for the detention OF ships
