More about Reprose sentaGion.

Mr.. Bates is represented rs say Ing,
in his speech at Newark, on Saturday
evening, that the Democratic party
was not responsible for the present
state of representation, but attributed
1t to the constitution of 1882, of which
John M. Clayton, the great Wing lead
or of Delaware, was the father. In one
sense Mr.. Bates is correct. John M.
Clayton was the father of the present
constitution of Delaware. 1t was adopt
cd Just fifty years ago, when represen-
tation was about as near equal In the
three counties Of Delaware as 1t pos
sibly could be. This equal representa-
tion went back from that time fifty
years more, and equal representation
being good enough for Mr.. Clayton
through his Influence that principle
was continued in the present constitu-
tion, which was good enough in it's
day. Gould Mr.. Clayton have foreseen
the rapid increase of population in New
Castle county, he, no doubt, would
have made provision to meet it. But a
new constitution was formulated in
1852 at constitutional convention, Of
which the late Hon. James A. Baysrd' ;
father of the present U. s. Senator, was
a member. This constitutional con
vention provided for increased repre-
sentation, but, because it did not pro-
vide for represen alton according to

MONDAY, OCTOBER 8. 1881.
Mr., Rates on representation.


The Democrats had a meeting at
Newark, White Clay Greek Hundred
on Saturday evening, which was ad-
dressed by Mr.. Bates, candidate for the
Legislature from this city, and I, n.
Williams, ex member of the Leg
ture from seaford, Sussex County, but
an employee of the Every Evening and
also a resident of this city. Being
pressed to the wall, Mr.. Bates made out
to devote u part Of his speech to the
question of representation and IN &C
G rdance with the platform adopted by
his party at Dover, favored increased
representation in the Legislature, but
did not favor representation on the
basis of population, which is accorded
in Pennsylvania and other progressive
States in the Union. Though the
Democrats have held several
meetings, one of which at least was
addressed by Mr.. Bates, not a word
was ever spoken in favor of even in
creased representation, until Saturday
evening, when, finding that the Repub'
Iicans were gaining ground by advocat-
ing representation according to popula-
ton, that gentleman at last came to the
conclusion that his party could not
safely ignore the question and half
apologetically advocated increased
representation. But Mr.. Bates did not
think it would be advisable to give
Wilmington representation according
to population. The thousands Of me-
Chanics and workingmen of Whining
ton never were up to the full standard
of men in the eyes of such gentlemen as
Mr.. Bates and hence while 1t was emf
nently right and proper to have in
creaeed representation in country dis
tricts, it was very unsafe to give the
workingmen OF Wilmington equal rep
resentation. Mr.. Bates did not, 80 far
as we have seen any report OF the meet
ing, say how much Of increase in rep
sentation he was in favor of. One or
two members would be an increase, but
that would be poor satisfaction for the
fifty thousand disfranchised citizens OF
New Castle County. How very care
fully Mr.. Bates picks his steps and how
very small his steps are in the direction
of increased representation. Now we
make the bold charge that Mr.. Bates is
not heartily in favor of even increased
representation. If he had been he
would bave said something in favor ol
it at the Democratic ratification meet
ing. 1t took Democratic defeat at
the "Little Election" with partially
divided Republican party, to convince
him that he could not safely ignore the
question, and being driven under such
circumstances to support increased rep
resentation, we appeal to an intelligent
and discriminating public, to say
whether he is heartily in favor of II
now.

The Au1umn nlIower Season.

This is the season Of the year when
the 10 vers of flowers aIe bewildered and
put to their wits end to kuow what
flowers to save and what to leave out to
be killed by the rigOrs OF winter. Gen
orally when fall comes there are too
many flowers to save and amateur flor
lists harass themselves ia trying to
save all. The ANIMALS are easily dis
posed of. They grow and bloom but
for the season and 1t is a small matter
to save and tie up in package few
seeds of each. But there are others
which cause us more concern. There
is the bed of geraniums that have
bloomed so profusely and beautifully
all summer and with little care will
bloom all winter, we cannot leave them
out to perish. Even the tiniest plant
must be carefully potted. 1t is 80 cute
to see the little things bloom. Then
there are the fuchias beautiful pendant
flowers we cannot pass them by. Tie
tender roses too must be gathered up
and those variegated Coleas, we must
take care of them. The more we pet
and try to save the more we want to
save. The modesty plant appeals to
our finer feelings and it must be gar
nered. We love the sweet odor of car
nations and they must be taken care
Of There Is a little bed of pansies with
iaunty bloom noddinR at US TO come
and save them and we pot them. Then
there are a number OF sweet allyssum
plants that have bloomed faithfully all
summer, we cannot pass them by and
so we gather them up and if we have
no pots, we hunt up old tomato cans
and put them second TINE into use.
And there are oxalis plants, verbenas,
| Gala. lilies, mis snionette and a great re-
tinue of other plants that have made
us happy all summer, we cannot bear
the thought Of letting them lie beneath
the cold snow bed all winter and we
hunt up boxes and crooks, kettles and
pots and set them away. But now we
are at loss again. Whero shall we
put them? Most of us have small
houses with no room in them for such
an array of flower plants. We have un'
dertaken more than we know how to
get through with. After all our
trouble potting our flowers, MANY Of
them must be left to wither and die.
No wonder the autumn season is called
the saddest Of the year. One thing
however we can do If We are not selfish
We can make others who have not the
facilities for raising flowers happy by
dividing with them, and we will ex
perionce the happiness which Is said tt
belong to the giver in con tributing tt
their pleasure.

WE ARE NOT told that the White
Clay Creek Hundred Democrats ap-
plauded Justify when Mr.. Bates con-
graduated them upon the victory they
achieved last Tuesday. With the fact
before them that the Republicans had
for the first time in twenty years or
more carried one end Of the hundred
and elected an inspector and reduced
the Democratic majority in the other
end down to vory small figures, the
Democrats Of that hundred must have
tore open their eyes with astonishment
at Mr.. Bates announcement, but We
imagine must hAvo felt In very
little humor Of ApplAuding. However, 1t
is not for us to tell the Democrats where
and whom to applaud. If they are sat-
isfed with such victories a. were
achieved in White Clay Greek Hun
dred we are quite sure the Republicans
are.

The Campaign in South Carolina.

The Campaign in South Carolina.
In the heading to the letter of Hon.
James B. Campbell, of South Carolina, in
our issue of Friday, it was inadvertently
stated that he was elected to Congress,
instead of to the State senate, in 1878.
Mr.. Campbell's manly and outspoken
opposition to ballot-boX stuffing and It's
sue ballots have drawn forth the bitter
est denunciation of him by the Bourbon
press of that State. Nothing could more
forcibly illustrate the unhealthy con-
dition of political sentiment than the
manner inSwhich the Bourbons vent
their rage upon lifelong Democrat of
distinguished prominence in his party
and in his profession, and of the highest
personal character, but who dares to ex-
press his opposition to election frauds,
and is willing to accept office at the
hands of those who believe that only
honest votes should be counted. Yet
the very frauds which Mr. Campbell de-
nounces have been admitted by the
Ne,es and Courier and by General Hamp,
ton, in the Senate. Indeed, the tissue
ballots the box stuffing and the report
ing of false results with the suppression
of the returns required by law, are the
methods so universally known and ad-
mitted as the means of success in South
Carolina since 1876 that the Bourbon
Democracy not only have ceased to
deny but boldly undertake to justify
their use as proper means of retaining
power in their own hands which they
regard essential to the public veal.
Mr.. Campbell and Colonel Cash, twolile-
long Democrats, regard decency and hon
esty the true policy, and are candidates
for Congress in opposition to fraudulent
methods, and base their candidacy solely
thereon. Now, however, General Hamp-
ton, who became governor by foreign
treaty in 1878, who was elected in 1873
by fraud, and who was Immediately re-
turned to the United States Senate by a
legislature elected by tissue ballots, is
upon the stump denouncing all Demo-
Gratis who oppose tissue ballots and bal
lot-box stulling as "traitors TO their par
ty and traitors to the State" II is un-
questionable that both Campbell and
Cash will receive an overwhelming ma
jority of the votes honestly and legally
polled. 1t is justas certain that the boxes
will be stuffed as heretofore and that
these men will be counted out" Men
who are not elected will receive the gov
ernor's certificate of election, and weak
kneed, time serving Republicans will
dicker and hesitate about turning them
out. Every fraudulently-certilied Mem
Der from South Carolina neutralizes the
vote of an elected Member from Penn
sylvania or Massachusetts. Every stuffed
ballot in the South neutralizes an honest
vote at the North. Fraud anywhere af-
fects the whole country.

The Senate.

The election of Republican Senator
in Oregon is an important step toward
the restoration of Republican control in
the Senate. 1t is an offset for the loss
of Mr.. Kellogg, of Louisiana, who will
be succeeded in the next Congress by
Mr.. Gibson. The Democrats will lose
Mr.. Johnston, who will be succeeded by
Mr.. Riddleberger. Mr.. Davis, of Illinois,
will undoubtedly be succeeded by Re-
publican. There is no reason to ap-
prehend the loss of any other Re-
publican. Hopes are entertained of dis
placing Democrats for Republicans from
New Jersey, Delaware, North Carolina,
and Tennessee. But if only Illinois is
counted on for Republican gain the
Senate would then stand thus: Republi-
cans, 3S; Independents or Readjusters, q;
Democrats, SO. This would defeat all
Bourbon schemes in that body. The
margin is more likely to be increased than
diminished
