In a certain way the notification with which we are charged la perfunctory and unnecessary, and yet It is well to maintain by some degree of formality that respectable observance which Is due to great events.

He said: "The official notification which you bring of my nomination for the rice presidency of the United Slates by the national Democracy gitea me a feeling of the aincerest gratitude to my party for the honor conferred. At the same time It brings to me a deep sense of my responsibility to my party aa a candidate and to my country In case of

my election.
