Pulled to Pieces.

"'Ihis Is the year for reform in Delaware. II
not now, then when can it ever be had. A strong,
fairly made Republican ticket will secure 1t, but
iobbery aud wire-pu'ling will destroy the golden
chance Let the people think aud act for them
selves.'-COmDierCsai.
Surely the Radical party has been pulled TO
pieces. In Delaware it would have no existence
were ii not for tho immense negro vote it hopes
to poll. And this was known 10 the politicians
tour years ago; and there has been strife ever
since in the cliques of the party. Each clique
desires to control tie negro vote before the nomi-
natons arc made. 80 long as Wm. Howard Day
managed the rtsio leagues in the S'lt', the
whites, or such q ,L,la visited these leagues,
had 10 stand back. lie was their supe: or in OF
atory, and could easily knock the props from un-
der their ingenious devices Hence it was neces-
ssry to manage Day and thus get at the leagucs.
Since his absence 1t appears there has been gen.
eral g. f.. There are some gentlemen who cannot
descend SO f. as TO openly erd uns! lshirgly
court the negro vote, or any other vote, and they
have gone under--thc black tide has swept over
them, aud as POLITICIANS ther work is done
Strange to say, however, that th-s 'blaek tide"
should have been urged over the very people who
were the gteat pat.oLs CT the negro, il the long
years that preceded the war, as well as subse-
luentiy.
Such, however, is tie case, especially in this
city. 1t was fully shown in tho late school cleo
ton, and subseq uontly in the attempt to reduce
the influence OF Nj. VIM. Hilles, in the Board OF
Public Education. Look at it-Hilies, Child.
Thompson, ct al. The same blow Sweeps all
down before it. Why is thisl These gentlemen
are all Of high aud honorable school of politics
fanatics they may be; in our belief. But they
are governed by principles. and they would not
stoop to carry the ignorant by deception. aud
unite in fraud even TO gain victory.
The Commercial stood at the lead OF these
gentlemen. 1t was ready TO 60 all lengths to car
ry the negro vote but it could not serve two mas.
tiers, and while hating and pondering, the anti.
quaker influence swept on aud carried all before
it. And now the Commere,al denounccs The
"iobbpg" and "wire-pulling." 1t has lost iii
hold of the wire, and gets fewer of the jobs.

votes at the school meeting last Saturday.
Objection being made TO receiving the votes,
the chairman Of the meeting, Mr.. SlaymakeI,
deeded alter consultation that they had no
right TO Il vote, resting his decision On legal
opinion Of two prominent Republican law gers
OF Dover, Messrs Smthers and Massey. In
opposition 10 this opinion. Nathaniel Brinklcy
one OF the cOloied men, produced n letter from
the United - ates District Attorney Anthony
Higgins, ESD, stating that under the enforce
ment law he would be obliged 10 prosecute
any one refusing such vote. and Brinkiev de-
clarCd his in antiOn 10 bring the matter TO the
