PENNSYLVANIA REPUBLICANS are now
endeavoring to arrange compromise
between their opposing factions with a view
to the withdrawal of the regular and indie
pendent tickets now in the field and the
selection of new ticket by convention
composed of delegates fresh from the people
1t is doubtful, however, If Cameron will
agree to this plan unless he feels assured
a majority of the delegates to be
selected will be solid for the
machine However, it is too late now for a
successful compromise, as the people know
that the only way to etiectually smash the
Republican mrchine is to elect the Demo.
cratic candidates. The death-knell of the
''ring' has been pronounced, and Judge
Turnkey, Robert G.. Pattison, Robert f.
Monaghan, or some other equally worthy
and able Democrat will be the next Governor
of the Keystone State.

The Democratlc Nleeting.

The Democratic meeting in Odd Fellows
Hall last evening was fine representative
gathering and in point of numbers was
unusually large, the hall being crowded
during the entire evening. The large attend
ance was as gratifying as 1t was unexpected
1t being something new for the peo-
pie of Wilmington to be worked up
to a deep interest in political af-
fairs at this season of the year.
1t is reasonable, therefore, to infer from last
nights meeting, that the taxpayers Of VIII
mington are fully alive to the interests of
the campaign, and to the necessity of ad-
ministering eath-blow to the adherents Of
the corrupt and extravagant ''City Ring
now striving to regain control Of the affairs
of this city
The address of Hon. George Gray was
one Of the most forcible and eloquent efforts
of that always pleasant and effective public
speaker. True, the present campaign is
one of a municipal character, but its results,
although important in themselves bear so
directly upon the State campaign soon to
follow, that Mr.. Gray's remarks were as
pertinent as though the issue in the State
was also to be decided at the city election
His clear exposition of the principle that the
people of this State have right to govern
their own affairs, untrammelled by restric-
tive Federal interference, will be readily
accepted by every man in Delaware
who loves this sturdy little common
wealth and desires to see her govern
ment managed in accordance with
the, wishes of her own people. Equally
forcible was his arraignment of the Repub-
lican policy of interference at elections, and
the appointment of hordes of Deputy mar
shals for no other purpose than to Obstruct
Democratic voters and aid Republicans in
fraud at the polls. Right well did Mr.. Gray
say that he would would never rest until
such an infamous law was wiped from the
statute book.
Mr.. Gray also touched briefly upon the
tariff question, and in few words showed
how completely the present revenue system
is designed to enrich few manufacturers at
the expense of the workingman and me
chanic. In closing he spoke of city affairs
and alluded to some of the unavoidable
results of Republican victory at the city
election.
Harry Sharpley, Esq, president of City
Council, followed in brief speech in which
he referred to the irreproachable character
of the Democratic candidates and urged
every Democrat to work hard for their elec-
tion. Full reports of these excellen
speeches will be found in another par
of to-day's GAZETTE.
Altogether the meeting was an encourag
ing success, and shows that the Democratic
voters are fully alive to the Importance Q
next Saturdays election.

Mr.. CONRAD, the Republican candidate
for President of City Council, failed to APP
pear at the Republican meeting last evening,
although expected there to make speech
No doubt his Republican brethren were de-
lighted at his non-appearance, as they were
thereby spared the necessity of keeping a
constant guard upon his every word in order
to prevent some horrible slip of his aristo-
cratic tongue calculated to offend the feel
ings of the workingmen and mechanics of
this city. Later in the evening Mr.. Conrad
Joined his Republican brethren and spoke
his little speech in the seclusion of the ban.
quet room. We have no report of his re
marks on this festive occasion, but have nc
doubt he told the congenial auditors that
his Democratic competitor, Col. Robert II
Taylor, was better fitted to paint cars thar
to preside over the City Council, a position tt
which, like all others ofa political character,
workingmen and mechanics have no right
to aspire. At least this is the idea Mr.. Con,
rad previously expressed and entertained Oh
this subject, and there is no reason to believ,
he has changed his opinion.

A REPUBLICAN JURY cleared William
Neal of the charge of rape, notwithstand-
ing his guilt was conclusively proved, but
reluctantly convicted James Redden, because
they feared the effect another such travesty
of justice might have on the approaching
elections. The sentiment, however, plainly
shows forth that according to the Repubi-
can idea the outrage of poor white woman
by negro is nothing more than mis-
demeanor hardly deserving of the lightest
punishment.
