We feel confident that, with the stan dard of democracy in your hands, the democrats of this district will rally to you as t*» one man, and on the second Tuesday in November next elect you an overwhelming majority. The unanimity of sentiment in the vention is conclusive evidence that the eminent services you have heretofore dered the country are appreciated by the |ieople of this district, and we ho|*e y will accept the nomination now tendered you, ami that we may still have the bene- f your distinguished ability in councils of this great republic.

House of Representatives, > Washington, D. C., Aug. 4, 1892 j Messrs. B. H. Patterson, K. P. S. IVn- niark, C. L. Holmes. .1. S. Sharp, ami J. C. Lehman: Gentlemen—Your communication dated June 29, in which you, as a com mittee of the democratic convention of the Eleventh district of Georgia, held on that day at Waycross, notifying me of my nomination by the convention by acclamation for the next congress, was duly received. Such a nomination by the new district docs me great honor, and I accept it with sincere gratitude. Hut the responsibility devolved on me by the convention is also great, and I should doubt inv sufficiency for my task, if I di«l not rely confidently on the telligcnt and energetic co-operatio the party. It is now apparent that the great con test in which the American [tropic arc about to engage for the presidency ami the control of congress will l»e contested by tbt* leading, parties ou the historic issues of 1890. The republican party tenders us battle on the old lines of high taxation and federal control of elections. If that party succeeds we will agaiu have Mr. Reed ns speaker and Mr. Harrison president of the U nited Stales. These leaders of that party, it is well known, exerted with unsparing hand the vast in fluence of their high stations during the last congress to pass the McKinley bill and the force bill. The former became a law at the first session of that congress and the latter having passed the house at the same session, failed in the senate at the second session by a vote of 35 to 44. After an overwhelming defeat at the |sills, on this issue, and with five re- ptihliean senators voting with us, only one vote stand between us ami destruct ion. If the rciHiblicau party had car ried the election of 1890, would not the senate have passed the bill? And if that party should carry the country this fall with these candidates and upon this issue, does any reasonable man doubt that this atrocious measure will la? put on our people? By the singular hardship of our situa tion, at no time within a generation, have the white people of the south l»een aide to divide without ruin. The divi sions of I860 and of 1868, with their direful train of disasters and oppressions were bail enough, but our enemies still left us, in a measure at least, the right to hold our own elections. By a manly and united assertion of this right, we re covered our liberties in 1870, when those who humiliated and oppressed us then, openly proposed to strip us of this last resource of free men. Shall we dis band the old guard of freedom, in the face of the foe? But I have already this year at various places in the district discussed the ques tions of the day, and it will be uiy duty during the ensuing campaign, in the language of our great leader, “to tell the people plainly and honestly jwliat we believe and bow we propose to serve the interest of the entire country.” I there fore forebear now. Thanking you, gentlemen, for the very courteous and complimentary terms in which you have conveyed to me the wishes of the convention, I have the honor to be your humble servant. H. G.
