Harmony Must Prevail.
delaware Democrat. ]

IDeIaWart DemOcrat,
The delegates who will be elected to-day
to assemble in Convention on Tuesday next
to nominate candidates for Governor and
Representative in Congress, should realize
the grave responsibility which will rest upon
them. The campaign will be hotly con
tested, and to ensure success only the best
and most available candidates will be
selected. Harmony must prevail in the
ranks of Democracy TO guarantee success,
and the members of the convention should
avoid bitterness and malignity towards their
opposing candidates, whilst they should be
faithful and steadfast to their favorites.

On Thursday, the nth inst, the Norma |

West Jersey railroad. On the return home
Miles Murphy, q driver Of the Cold spring |
Ice Company, was standing on the rear plat |
form Of car. The conductor came 70 MN
and said he could get seat further anean;
Murphy passed through the car ana Iouhu
q avacant place which he took, putting MS
feet nm on the seat ahead of him and went
TO sleep.
When about Woodbury., Murphy missed
his 0old watch, for which he had recently
paid sIO5. The cars were dark and he was
unable to search, although he had strong
suspicions who had robbed him OF the
watch and about $65 in money.
Upon arriving at the wharf in Wilmington
well and unfavorably known character,
seized him by the throat and demanded his
watch. Briefly very earnestly denied the
charge and was released.
Murphy, however, was not satisfied and
kept a sharp lookout for his missing pro

week after the robbery, Bob Valentine,
colored man, came TO Murphy and saiu !;

Murphy remembers seeing the party on
the corner at the time Valentine mentioned.
Valentine further stated that the watch
had been pawned in Philadelphia, and might
be gotten back. Yesterday a man named
Burrows called on Murphy and said the
watch might be had for certain sum o
money, naming it, and wanted Murphy u
go to Philadelphia to-day or Monday, alont
with Brierly, who would use his endeavor
to get the 'ticker."
Murphy refused to go to Philadelphia
not having the time, but was willing TO pu
$25 in the hands of some reliable party, wht
was to hold it until the watch was produced
This Burrows and Briefly, who afterward
put in an appearance, refused to do.
Murphy, who had lost much time, wa

THE SUN

THE SUN
The Sun for 1889 will make Its fifteenth
annual revolution under the present manage
ment, shining as always, for all, big and
little, mean and gracious, contented and
unhappy, Republican and Democratic,
depraved and virtuous, intelligent and
obtuse. The SUMS light is for mankind and
womankind of every sort but its genial
warmth is for the good, while it pours hot
discomfort on the blisterng backs of the
persistently wicked,
4ne sun OF 1868 was newspaper of q new
kind. 1t discarded many of the forms and
mulutpde OF the superfiqous words and
phrases OF ancient journalism. 1t undertook
to report In fresh, succinct, unconventional
way all the news of the world, omitting no
event OF human interest, and commenting
upon affairs with the fearlessness of absolute
Independence. The success Of this expert
ment was the success of The Sita. II effected
permanent change In the style of American
newspapers. Every important journal
established in this country In the dozen
years past has been modelled after The San.
Every important journal already existing has
been modified and bettered by the force of
The SUMS example.
The Sun of1SS2 will be the same outspoken,
trqth-telling and interesting newspaper.
BY liberal use of the means which an
abundant prosperity affords, we shall make
u better than ever before. We shall print ali
IN news, putting 1t into readable shape, and
measuring Its importance, not by the
traditional yardstick, but by its real interest
to the people. Distance from Printing House
square is not the first consideration with
4he oun. whenever anything happens worth
reporting we get the particulars, whether IL
happens in Brooklyn or Bokhara.
In politics we have decided opinions and
we are accustomed to express them in
language that can be understood. We say
what we think about men and events. That
habit is the only secret Of The Sans political
course.
The Weekly SIM gathers into eight papes
the best matter of the seven daily issues An
Agricultural Department of uneaualled
merit, full market reports, and a liberal
proportion ofliterary, scientific and domestic
intelligence complete the Weekly lya.,., and
make 1t the best newspaper for the farmers
household that was ever printed.
