Important Conversions.
n the Phila. bulletin,

From the Phlla. bulletin,
General Beavers campaign through
the State and the inevitabto result OF
thoughtful deliberatiOn on the issues Of
the day by intelligent and unbiased
men of either party are bringing forth
a satisfactory condition of affairs. The
conversions to the regular Republican
ranks throughout the State are numer'
GUS and notable. Information of these
come to the Republicans headquarters
by every mail. Here are some:
Carey W. Awle, Of Carlisle, is the
most prominent iron manufacturer in
Cumberland county, and employs $50
men. He is a leading Democrat in
that part OF the State, but because oil
the threatened danger to the tariff he
has declared in favor of General Beaver
and the whole Republican State and
Congressional ticket. Alarmed at this
detection Chairman Hensil of the Demo
cratic State Corumittee, sent for hlm
and endeavored to persuade him from
using his influence in this direction
Mr.. Awle told Chairman Hensil plain
" that the Democratic party was the
enemy of the tariff, and that tho tariff
was in such danger that all business
men should throw aside politics Bnc
protect their interests in the crisis Al
this time.
Three iron manufacturers at Read
ing, ono of them a Democrat employ
ing 800 men, have also come out to-
the Republican State and Congression'
al tickets. One of them says he ha'
had no advarce orders since the OAit
election.
The Republican State Committee, il
letters from all paris OF the State, learI
of similar changes on the part ofprom
inent business men.

We are pleased to announce that Mr.

Concert Company" has arrived in this
city and is now arranging with Mr..
Bayliss Of the Opera Honse for the ap-
pearance of the "Queen of the Concert
room" and the American Nightiu-
gale" in one Grand Thursby Concert,
in the week commencing Nov. 18th.
The exact date has not yet been placed
owing to prior engagements of the house
which for Miss Thursby's appear
ance will have to be changed. We
have no doubt that this announcement
will lie warmly welcomed as this will
be her first appearance in Wilmington
since her great European success, In
p ris, Berlin, London, Vienna, Madrid
Stockholm and Copenhagen she has
been the guests of Empresses, Kings
Pre-idents, sc. The Thursby Concert
will be under the musical direction o.
the famous composer and pianist, Mr.

lars shortly.

naturalization In New York.

The courts of New York city have
finished the business of naturalization
so far as it applies to the election to
take place November 6. It was gener-
ally expected that, owing to the enor.
nous i'm IMMIGRATION of last spring and
summer, the applications for what are
called first papers would be unusually
large, and the expecta ion has not been
disappointed. During September ard
October the total applications we're 2 E
275, an increase OF 1915 compared with
the corresponding period last year.
The full naturalization papers granted
bv the Court of Common Pleas during
the eight weeks ended yesterday foot
up 900, or 200 more than for the same
time In 1881. The majority of appli'
cants had their costs paid by the vari-
GUS political committees and bureaus,
who preceding an exciting election are
always on the hunt for new voters.

him one morning last week a young
man who at q masked ball the night be-
fore had figured an George Washington,
to whom, however, his resemblance
was so entirely superficial that he
became drunk and abusive before the
night was over. Tho magistrate pro-
uounced sentence in the following
homely but emphatic language: snow,
if YOU had got drunk as ~ private
citizen, and cussed and ripped around
as such, | should have fined you 10; but
iuasmuch az you appeared at the
masked ball and committed the offence

Nobody W wants Mixed Schools.

For the REPUBLICAN,.
A word to the voters OF Delaware
The cry that the Republicans want
mixed schools Is a specimen Demo-
cratic lie No white Republican has
advocated them and the colored people
do not want them. To prove Vhis re-
fer YOU to the record. After the war
the Republican party was in power in
Virginia, North Carolina, South Caro-
lima, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mis-
sissippi, Louisiana and Arkansas, nine
Southern States, and in all of them ex-
cept Virginia, North Carolina and
Georgia the colored population was
largely in the ascendency and for years
controlled legislation. Did they estab-
lish mixed schools? No, not in sin
gle instance Did they advocate mixed
sch ools2 Never, not single member
of the Republican party.
When they ca me into POWER they
found no public schools in all the
Southern States, and they at once gave
the children of those States free schools
equally good for the white and the
black but not mixed schools. Two
school houses were built in each dis
trict, one for the white a"d the other
for col1red children, taught by equally
good teachers, and both kept open to
8 months each year. 1t is true a great
many Of these school houses were burn
ed down by the Klu Klux Democracy
who opposed the education of the COM
mon people, white and black, but they
were rebuilt az often as they were burn
ed down. AS soon as the Democrats
got in power in the South they did all
they could to cripple and destroy the
colored schools. Now all this proves
that the Republicans, white and color
ed, are opposed to mixed schools, and
that the Democrats are simply lying to
make votes. JUSTICE.

"a wonderful Thing rs u Eeed,'

g. A Wonderful Thing ~ u Eeed."
Says some song writer, and then he
adds;
" You can SOW to-day; tomorrow will bring
Tho blossom that proves what sort Ct thing
Is the seed, the seed that you sow."
All of which il true. And Hunts
Remedy is q wonderful thing, also. It.,
also, Ia tested by experience. You give
it to one who is severely afflicted with
dropsy, or some liver and kidney dis
ease, and tomorrow" or little
while, reveals "what sort Of thing" it
is; for it proves itself to be "the friend
in need, the cure for which you have
been seeking. This is the experience of
thousands. We do not fear, but invite
the most rigid testing of Hunts REM
edy in kidney and liver diseases.
