Whatever it was iotended for, the f tuen who made.lt muet have known that 1 BO attention would be paid to it. The : Itepulilicrn party is nothing if not a pro tective tariff, organization, -i leaders would as soon recommended tliat its name e dropped, as that the party should quit, even for one campaign, advocating a pro tective tariff.: That circumstance should l ave made finance take the lead of the tariff as an issue this year does not count., It was not the wish ot the Pe ! j.ubllcana that those circumstances should irise; on the contrary, it was in spite of their efforts to keep the tariff there that tallver has come to the Iront as a leading lasnr'If it had been possible, and the gold Democrats had been sincere, the Re ' . ynbheans might bavt profited by the sug gestion without delaying tariff legislation ' a si ogle day.

The platform adopted by tbe State convemion, which has declared for a single gold standard, is plain, anil it was upon that platform that I was nominated and i could not, even had I so desired, have accepted this nomination under any other circu distance? than to stand firmly upon the platform made by the Demo. cmtic pirty of Maine. "The Democatic national convention adopted a platform declaring for the free and unlimited coinage of Silver, and there was a strong pressure brought to bear to have' me announce myself in favor of (he nation?.! convention, which I did not con sid?r 113 right to do in accepting the nomination as it was tendered to me by the S ate convention.
