McKinley'a Acceptance.
Major McKinley issued his letter of
acceptance yesterday. It is a verv
lengthy document and strong through
out. It is a plain presentation of the
issues of the campaign in simple lan
guage, and an able defense of the prin
ciples of sound money, protection and
reciprocity.1 The monetary question ia
handled at great length and forms an in
vincible argument against the free coin
age of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1.
Other questions discussed are foreign
immigration, liberal pensions for soldiers
and sailors, the building up of the mer
chant marine, civil service reform, etc.
The length of the document prevents
The Chronicle from publishing it at
this time. It will doubtless, however,
constitute one of the best campaign doc
uments and be printed and circulated
by the tens of millions. The Oregonian
says of it in part : "McKinley's letter
of acceptance will surprise friends and
foes alike. It discovers breadth of view,
intellectual grasp, power of clear state
ment, command of elementary princi
ples, keen discrimination of the essen
tial, with which his admirers have not
credited him. He haa been reticent to
good purpose, if he has thought out this
masterly discussion of public questions
while an impatient party has been clam
oring for him to break silence."

Very'lnterestlng Letter by a Oallezon
Aliroid.
Long Beach, Waeh., Aug. 25,
'96.
Editor Chronicle :
In spite of my intention to write and
give yon a full account of the proceed
ings of the Press Association while in
session at Astoria, I find it has passed
and every moment was so occupied that
writing was an impossibility. However,
it is not too late to say that it was the
most successful in every way business
and socially I have yet attended.
About sixty-five were in attendance,
and all seemed determined to see that
the meeting was not - one of pleasure
alone, but that the welfare of the asso
ciation was promoted as well. Besides
the routine business, a number of very
fine papers were read, those by Mr.
Himes, the historian, and Mrs. Olive
England, being especially good. The
most enjoyable of the sessions was held
at Gearhart Park on the afternoon of
Friday, the 21st, at which time the new
officers were elected. The association
was particularly happy in their selection
of a president, and all felt that Mr. A.
W. Patterson, of the Heppner Gazette,
is just the president who will put life
and earnestness into the work. You
have no doubt had glowing accounts of
the hospitality of Astoria people from
our winners of the championship race in
the hose contest, and let me say that
even in their enthusiasm over their vic
tory and the royal manner in which
they were treated they cannot do the
subject justice, for if they were enter
tained aa well, aa the members of the
Press Association, they could not be
otherwise than enthusiastic. Mr. G. T.
Gratke, of the Astoria Daily Budget,
was chairman of the reception commit
tee, and together with the other mem
bers, did everything possible to make na
enjoy ourselves.
Baker City was chosen as the next
place of meeting and September as the
month.
After the meeting adjourned a number
of members came over to North Beach
to spend Sunday, and left the writer to
enjoy the remainder of her vacation by
what is termed the "sad sea wavee.' I
am not going to tell you about the waves
"kissing the shore," for I think it mean
to give, any thing of that sort away; nor
that, as a prosy gentleman said, aa I
look at the ocean I think "How. infi
Ttaitely small is. man," for I guess that
' Vpoor fellow had been trying to distribute
imeelf among the many lone females at
the beach, and, in the words of the im
mortal Cradlebaugh, wi&hed he'd been
"born twins." However, North Beach
does not remind one of heaven, as mont
beaches, for at' some of the resorts, men
are absolutely an unknown quantity.
One thing I have found out, whereas at
the association Republicans were in the
majority, -here things- Democratic are
o more numerous. . Protection is in the
background, unless it ia in regard to

very waves, silvery sands, 16 to 1, (six
teen women to one man) and everything
has a Bryan-y flavor, while the roar of
the silvery bellows reminds one of tbe

roar they end in foam.

length, and for most of the distance is
dotted with stations, and quite thickly
populated. . Every where one goes may
be seen the. pleasant countenances of
