THE REPUBLICANS SECOND
pURCHASE.

The Republican organization OF New
York State have just followed the exam
pie set them by the Republican party as
it is represented in Congress. In 1851
TO paw for the vote of Senator Malone, a
Republican administration virtually sup
pressed the Republican organization IN
Virginia, says the Sun, to make certain
the election of Mahone's candidate Tor
Governor. Again, the Republican poll
ticians were forced aside to make way
for the election of a r~epudiator to the
United States Senate. Malone alone held
the control Of all legislation, and he sold
it for an astounding price, a Governor
and a Senator.
In New York, a few days ago, the Re-
publicans bought the control OF the Sen
ate from the Tammany men, who were
elected as Democrats. They paid for it
ostensibly by giving the controlling votes
in the different committees to Tam
many men, though the real pay is proba-
bly, expected in offices far removed from
the Legislature, and in the satisfaction
of seeing the Democrats shorn OF their
power Of resistance to the Vaccinations
OF Tammany.
The second purchase seems likely to
turn out less profitable than the first.
BY the first the Republicans openly
allied themselves with reputation, but
they got what they paid for. BY the
second. they won over a treacherous lot
of politicians who know no party but
their own interests, but the first exhibit
ton Of the bargain meets with an mex
pected resistance. Some young but
astute Republicans evidently think that
openly carrying out q bargain with
traitors from another party is not a good
thing. They say they won't have it
The old members Of the party who made
the agreement shall not be allowed tc
carry out their part of it, and the disap
pointed Tammany strikers must get theil
living outside of the Republican lines.
Whatever the result of the deal, i
will have n wholesome development
Hereafter the Democratic voters vii
know as well as the Republican manager
have known heretofore, that John Kell,
is no more interested in the success o
the Democratic party in New York thai
was Malone in Virginia.

New York Sun.
There appears to be something about
questions Of currency and finance which
has q tendency to middle the c~learest
minds. For example, we find so able q
man as the Hon. Abraham s. Hewitt re-
ported as saying. in q recent debate on
corning silver dollars:
1.-THE law compels the Treasury to coin
$4,000, 900 per month Of these 67k per
sent dollars for the purpose Of commerce;
but commerce, wiser than Congress, re-
jects the inferior dollar, and will have
nothing to do with it. 1t demands the
dollar of commerce, the dollar OF the
world. which Is the gold dollar. Hence
these inferior, cheap and cheating dollars
pile up in the Treasury, and unless this
Government is willing to give them AVA
or to allow them to be taken away by the
first conner, we shall be compelled to vote
from year to year the money necessary to
build safes to protect them from thieves
and burglars"
The facts, as set forth in official doou.
ments recently published. are, that com.
MERGE In this country, 30 far from reject
ing silver dollars. had. up to Dec. /, 1881,
taken into circulation 81, 600, 900 OF them,
and had, besides, on Feb. /, 1882, accepted
certificates for SO, 900, 900 more, the coin
which they represent being left to encum-
Der the Treasury vaults, as Mr.. Hewitt
describes, though not for the reason he
gives. There are, therefore, at this mo-
ment los, 600. 900 silver dollars In circula.
ton among us. and they are for all practi-
cal purposes worth exactly as much as gold
dollars, being received by the Government
IN payment OF duties the same as gold, and
being, equally with gold dollars, q legal
tender in payment OF debts.
What will happen by and by, when a
change in the balance Of trade draws gold
In large quantities from us to Europe and
leaves US with a preponderance Of silver,
is another question; but, for the present,
assertions like those made by Mr.. Hewitt
are misleading.

WHY We LAUGH.-We have assur
ances from the best possible source
that actual work of construction on
the railroad to connect Seattle with
the Northern Pacific road will COM
mence within the next two weeks, and
the whole line be completed, so that
trains can run through to this city by
January LIST. For the present por-
ton of the Puyallup road will be used
and also a portion of the Columbia
and Puget Sound road from Black
river to Seattle), but next year the
line will be built direct from Lake
view to Seattle, as an independent
road. When this is done Seattle will
virtually be the terminus of the rail
road on Puget Sound. These facts are
not generally known, but we are as
sured on good authority, as above
stated, that they are facts, neverthe-
less, and that iswhy we laugh.-Post-

work for the Grand Jury.

The Court OF General Sessions for this
county is now in session, and one OF the
first Guties of the Attorney General should
be TO present to the Grand Jury the numcr-
ous cases of Illegal voting that have been
discovered since the recent general election.
And the inquisition thus set in motion
should not stop with the poor dupes who
were induced through money, arguments
and appeals to their ignorance to violate the
laws of the State, but should extend to the
ringleaders of the scheme which suceess-
fully landed over one hundred Illegal votes
in the ballot boxes of the upper part OF the
county.
No feelings Of delicacy or fears Of future
results should be allowed to interfere with
this investigation. II the illegal-votes
affect both parties, let the prosecution pro
ceed as vigorously against one side as the
other, for the Democratic party of Della
ware cannot afford to profit by frauds upon
the elective franchise. as to the cheatery
practiced by the Republican managers the
evidence is too plain and accumulative to
admit of the slightest doubt, and it will BE-
gross miscarriage of justice If a score OF
violators, including some of the shining
lights OF the party, are not compelled to
rest behind prison bars within month
from date.
The frauds that should be presented to
the Grand Jury at this session are of the
most hagrant character, and include the
bringing of negro men from the lower hun
dreds, who had no right to vote at home, to
Wilmington and North Christiana hundred,
where they were voted upon forged tar re-
cetpts, SO clumsily executed that none but
inspectors possessing the most bitterly par
tisan spirit would have accepted the votes
80 offered. These election officers should
also be indicted and made to explain In
a court of justice their reasons for being SO
criminally blind to illegalities that were ap-
parent at a glance.
We hope there will be no compromise in
this matter, but that every offender of the
election laws will be prosecuted to the bitter
end, for if the garing frauds Of the last
election are allowed to go uIpunishcd the
people of New Castle county will be at the
mercy of the forger and the Illegal voter at
the next general contest.
