THE LITTLE ELECTION.
A GOOD OPENING AND INDICATIONS
OF A FULL VOTE.


The Little Election onened be-
tween nine and ten o'clock this
morning, and with such show of
interest in this city as to indicate
that a'full vote will be polled.
In the First Ward it was known
among the Democrats that the In
spector appointed by the Levy
Court to hold the election, Eugene
Sayers, who took a trip to Europe
several weeks ago, had not return
ed, thereby rendering it necessary
for the voters to choose an Inspec-
tor by standing out" at the polls
For this purpose the Democrats ra'-
lied in force, while the Republicans,
not knowing anything about the
State of affairs, did not put in an ap.
pearance. James A. Plunkett was
chosen Inspector and Edward Hart
assistant. AS soon as the hour ol
nine o'clock arrived and few min.
utes thereafter he opened the polls
and received the fifty or more Dem
ocratic votes that were in waiting
1t was full ten minutes before James
Stroud, John V. Christy and Benny
Bye, the Republican ward workers
put in an appearance, and though
considerably surprised at the turn
affairs had taken they accepted the
result with philosophic composure
and Mr.. Stroud went inside as the
Republican assistant.
Throughout the city the opening
of the polls was attended by very
general interest. On account of the
rain great many workingmen were
idle, which, coupled with the party
excitement created during the pas
week, insures a full vote. In accor
dance with the old adage that "a
rainy dav is good for the Demo
crats,' a general feeling of success
by the members of that party is fel
throughout the city.

The Neos should not get angry be-
cause the GAZETTE reminds its readers
of the fact that the editors ofthe Radi
cal organs desire to introduce Penn
sylvlnia ideas in Delaware as to the
color line with reference to our schools
and labor system. The News does not
deny what the GAZETTE says, but
then it shows it's ill-temper by apply
ing mild adjectives to the GAZETTE.

INDIANA-WHAT Mr.. ENGLISH
SAys.-A Herald correspondent from
Indianapolis, dated Oct, 4, says Mr..
English unbosomed himself so far as to
say -
"We shall certainly cary this State
by 1000 plurality. There never was
such perfect organization as now, and
all our reports are Of the most encour-
aging nature"
"Why look at it," said Senator Nc
Donald, as Mr.. English relapsed into
solemn taclturnity. "Our last plurality
was $4,000, and what has happened to
change affairs 4? / admit that down TO
the Maine election there was au uncer-
tain vote of considerable dimensions,
aud it looked to me as if the republicans
might get it and reduce our plurality.
But look at it. Maine settled that ques-
tioar That uncertain quantity was the
greenback vote. Last time they cast
81 900 votes, but they won't do it again.
The leaders of the party are working in
the republican interest and for republ-
lican money, but the rank and file will
go where they please, aud we will have
our share of them. l haven't the les st
doubt in the world that we shall carry
this State"
"But," said l, ''the republican man
ayers say the same thing, and they APP
pear TO De Just as frank, as earnest and
as sincere as yourself How do you ac-
count for that pr asked |.
ooh" said the burly Senator, "they
know better. Why told MI. New the
other day that we had the State and he
knew it. If they really feel hopeful 1t
is because they expect ID buy up voters
or bribe inspectors, or do some kind OF
dirty " ork on election day. tell you
we will carry this State, certain. II the
plurality is small the result will not be
known for a day or two, but II il goes
with a rush we will know it early the
next morning.
THE MONEY QUESTION.
Subsequently Mr.. English said sub
stantially the same thing, and further
said -" The democrats of the State have
raised their own msaey. They agreed
TO take care of the campaign until the
0tn OF OcLOOer, anu nave uoue 81. lne
Herald has printed some extraordinary
lies about me. l know the author. He
is a republican of this city who has new
er asked me question, and If he had
I'm not in the habit Of telling news
papers what money use in campaign;
and then, 100, they have exaggerated the
ill-feeling in our committee and between
Mr.. Hendricks and myself. Why, they
say Mcdonald IS not supporting me. He
is working with me, and placed him
where he Is"
"But," said |. "you snrely don't intend
to give the impression that Hendricks is
woi king cord ally for you personally
You and he are rivals for State and ma
tional power~
"Well," replied Mr.. English, che is
working earnestly and vigorously and
eff ctively for the general ticket, and
that's all have right to ask. These
little minor difficulties and differences |

LIVE LONG AND BE HAPPY.

Why should not everyone live out
their full allotted time, enjoy good
health and be happy? Surely there is
no GOOD reason, and yet many will al
low impure blood, weakness of the
kidneys, imperfect digestion. and urin-
ary troubles to undermine and break
down their general health, and carry
them to . premature grave. Some seek
relief among mineral poisOns, in pill
form. ETC., others resort to extensively
advertised alcoholic beverages and fer
mented liquors, only to feel themselves
for q time somewhat better, but after
awhile much worse. Now, why should
this be so? 1t is well known by the
intelligent portion of our community
that DIR. Guysott's Yellow Dock and
Sarsaparilla will surely remove all
these disorders. The medicine is the
wonderful discovery of an eminent
French physician, and has proven it
self in thousands of instances to be the
best vegetable blood purifier known to
medical men. 1t never fails to effectu-
ally cure Scrofula, Syphilitic disorders
weakness of the kidneys, all nervous
disorders and debility, and all urinary
and digestive troubles. 1t makes the
old feel full of youthful vigor, and the
young energetic and gay. restoring
perfect manhood and woma,shood, es-
pecially. when the disease has a ten
uency to weaken the mind, body and
nervous system Do not despair. A
single bottle will convince you of its
great merit as a health renewer. for it
begins at once to give new life and
new vigor to both body and mind,
never failing to remove all symptoms
of any and every disease that can
be cured by cleansing, renovating, pur-
flying and strengthening the human
system, driving out, as If by magic, the
many ills the flesh Is heir TO, and build
ing up new health, new vigor, and
new life. Large quart bottle, 81 90.
