Thomas Electric Oil always relieve me.
My wife and child had diphtheria, and
"Thomas' Eclectric Oil cured them, and if
taken in time it will cure seven times out
OF ten. | am confident it is cure for the
most obstinate cod and cough, and if any
one will take small teaspoon and half fiji
it with the Oil, and then place the end of
the spoon in one nostril and draw the oil
out of the spoon into the head by shifting
as hard as they can, until the Oil falls over
in the throat, and practice that twice a
week, don't care how offensive their head
may be, If will clean it out and cure their
catarrh. For deafness and earache it has
done wonders to my certain knowledge. 1t

We want to present Inis matter strongly
to ouI legislators because We have faith
In their desire to serve the Stats and the
public We have no interest in either of
the roa "a now competing for their favor,
and We have no doubt thst both will be
governed by the policy common to all
business, of making ont of our people
ali the money they can. but looking
at the matter from the standpoint of the
interests of our own people there can
be no doubt as to the wisdom of allowing
them TO have two means of communica-
ton with the rest OF The world instead of
combining tham to one. and there Is no
possible toom Tor honest and disinterested
difference of opinion on this matter. Hence,
all we ask of our legislators Is that they
shall disregard all that interested counsel
say to them on either side In the way Of
persuasion, and act in the interests of the
people of Delaware, which in this matter,
simply require fair field and no favor fol-

We do not think the Pennsylvania Rail-

be as well managed corporation. 1t
seems absolutely impossible for it to get
trains from New York to Grsy's Ferry in
time for regular connections with the
trains OF the p, W. d. B. road and the
people of this city are consequently put to
a great deal of inconvenience even in travel
between here and Philadelphia. We hope
the new opposition through line will be
able to run trains with more regularity.

Something for the Democrats Of the
Lower Counties TO Consider.

Something for the Democrats of the
Lower Counties to Consider.
There is spirit manifest 10 the CONVEX
sstion If not In the acts of some OF the
Democrats Of the lower counties which
calls for criticism not merely from the
standpoint of those who believe In that
principle OF the rule of the majority
which underlies every system of real
Democratic government, bur which calls
for decisive rebuke at the hands of those
Democrats who do the thinking for their
party. The spirit may be somewhat
roughly described ss a disposition to pua-
ish the whole people of New Castle
county because majority of them
voted the Republican ticket at the
recent election. Now while EVERY EVENING
did all in its power to persuade ajority
of the people of this county not to do that
thing, and though it denounced with vigor
the methods and tactics by which, as It
believes, a large number of the working
men of Wilmington were compelled to
vote against their convictions, 1t does not
recognise any right in the Legislature, or
any one else, to attempt to punish any
part of our people for voting the Rspubli-
can ticket, any more than it did the right
of employers to threaten their workmsp
with discharge if they voted the Demo
cratic ticket.
| But it is not our purpose to discuss this
matter In the present article from this
standpoint. We prefer to bring a few
facts right home to the Democrats, as
such, and suggest to them the propriety
of giving them very serious consideration
from no higher standpoint than that of
the interests of their own party. Taking
the electoral vote in the recent election as
fair exhibit of the party vote we find
that Gen. Hancock received in Kent 8, 66l
votes, and in Sussex 1891, total
OF 1852 in both counties, while
be received in New Castle county
1924 votes, which is more thar

The ftst Month of the Legislative
session is gone, ard as usual, many
projects which are to be presented have
not even been introduced. This is not
the fault OF the members, but of the pro-
motors of the various schemes which are
to be considered and yet doubtless the cry
will be raised before the end of the
session that the members are dragging it
out till corn planting time.
