Ring Rnle In Snnsex.

That remarkable facility for making the
best out of everything in the affairs of its
own party, no matter whether It is
triumph or a defeat of decent Republicans
sentiment enables the morning organ to Law
ishly laud the county ticket put In nomina-
tion by the Sussex Republicans yester-
day, and to make some astounding state
ments concerning the candidates.
In doing this the morning organ is simply
continuing in the course it has been fol
lowing ever since the Republican State Con
yention, in hopeless endeaYor to ohoodwink
Htfr-minded members of It's party into the
sSsief that the leadership of the party in
this State is not completely in the hands of
the disreputale element, which has driven
from the ranks such men as Mr.. Hig-
gins and Mr. Bradford. While it
declares that the ticket is not "set
up in the interest of any one man for
the United States Senate, 1t is careful not to
90 too far In making declarations of this
kind. In this, at least, the morning organ
shows that 1t is learning wisdom. 1t knows
very well the complexion of the Sussex
Legislative ticket, and 1t knows that 1t is SET
up not only In the interests of certain
faction but in the interests of any man
whom the chairman of the State Central
Committee may choose to name, even should
it be himself
The fact of the matter is that the Sussex
county ticket is entirely In the control OF
the Dover ring. The GAZETTE stated weeks
ago that 'Boss" Harrington and his hench-
men of high and low degree, intended to
have all the say In the naming of Legisla-
tive candidates In all three counties. This
statement has had ample proof since then.
About the time II was made, Captain
Gallagher, whose influence with the VIII
mington voters seems to have died away
when the County Committee ignored him,
was sent on pilgrimage through Kent and
Sussex. Boss" Harrington, Major Lofland
and Bob Lambden accompanied him alter.
nately, and it has been no secret that the
mission of this gentleman was to lay
plans for the work which wa.
done at Georgetown yesterday. Thii
Is only q part of the proof Ii
New Castle county it is even more over
A1NlC a WAS WIbTt
ever there was chance, and in almoB
every instance the Dover ring came OF
triumphant. The result is known, and Mr.
Higgins was treated to another of tn,
greatest surprises of his life by way o
Dover when the returns came in.
And SO, in Sussex yesterday, as will b.
shown, the machine methods of Harrington
carried the day again, and while for the SAX
of that new relation which he calls char
"mony," he allowed the Halfbreeds can
didate or two-John D. Rodney of George
town hundred, who was chosen with the yiey
of appeasing the Laytons, who are his rela
tiVes, is notable instance-he has the lion
share, and can mould the work of the dele
CATION, In the remote possibility of it getting
10 Dover, as he peases.
The ticket is not good one. It Ia com
posed in greater part of good citizens, 1t i
true, but 1t wears the collar of Harrington
and 1t seems that he and Major Lofand wer
the only ones who were enthusiastic enougl
TO take part in the ratification meeting whel
the convention was over.

A Water Lily as a Detectlve.

An Atlanta, Ga, woman eloped from her
husband, and she was captured because oi
her love of flowers, or rather because of her
affection for particular flower. No trace
was obtained of her for two months,
although detectives were sent in all direc.
tions. 1t happened that the wife had been
cultyating water lily, and when she left
she carried 1t with her. A few DAYS ago an
officer, who had been employed In the case,
in passing house in Atlanta saw a water
lily in the window, When he entered the
house he was not greatly surprised to dis
cover that its owner was the missing wife,
who had never been absent from Atlanta.
While her husband was searehig every
where for her, she remained quiet under biz
very eyes.

Letters Delivered In an ODD Way.


Recently Captain Crawford, while towing
out vessel, picked up, some distance from
land, board about three inches wide by
three feet long, upon one end of which wat
tied bottle filled with wine, while upon the
other end was fastened another bottle filled
with letters. Upon one side of the board
was written please mail the letters and
drink the wine. Officers United States
steamer Tallapoosa, bound for Pensacola,
Florida. Please break the bottle and mail
enclosed letters" Upon the other side oI
the board was written Omitted States
steamer Tallapoosa, at sea, June 80, 1882.
Weather fine" The bottle containing the
letters was broken. Captain Crawford
sighted the Tallapoosa in the distance and
everything seemed to be working smoothly.
lie returned to Mayport in time to hand the
letters TO George L. Fox, the mail agent,
who delivered them to Colonel Jay upop
arriving at the city, and they were immedi.
ately forwarded North.

THERE is EVEN such a possibility as get
ting too much Of good thing, and the fact
holds In regard to the weather. Eor one
week the skies have been overcast, rain has
fallen more copiously than Cor many
years In the same space pf tlne,
streams are swollen roads are
heavy, trains are delayeds vessels wrecked,
agricultural fairs sadly crinpled, and colds
in the head prevalent everywhere; and yet
the indications point TO more rain, cold
winds and general discomfort for another
day at least. OF course we all desire q
change, anything, as Is the general feeling
Of mankind, being preferable 70 the
present. And still, with all the
moisture and chilling atmosphere,
an expression oG thaRknalness wells up, and
those who complain the most find little
for which to be thankful. The crops have all
been ganered, excepting, perhaps, some Of
the tobacco; the country is prosperous, and
losers by the foods better able than for years
to Withstand their losses bass ball matches
have been declared off, and much valuable
strength Of lung, muscle and conscience
saved for perhaps better purpose dealers
in rubber coats and umbrellas are making
fortunes, and those compelled TO drive
through the country or ride ot the rail-
roads are not choked with dust. Rain
was needed badly, and we have had It and
it is still with us. With the first glimpse oi
the sun and warm day all the misery oi
the past week, If so it can be called, WIN be
at once forgotten, and smiles win wreathe
the faces of those who complain of cold feet
and whose clothes hang damp and limp.

THE New YORK Herald comes out to day
with a statement from Stephen B. French,
who is believed to be party in the disrepu-
table forgery business at Saratoga, by which
Robertson's vote was misseast at Saratoga,
and shows how another vote was obtained
for Folger, also by means of bogus tele-
gram. All in all, the Administration seems
to have been above nothing which woult
accomplish its ends.

Jones & Michael have curiosity on exhi-
tion in their drug store. 1t is Mexican
axolOti, and was found in an irrigating ditch
near Golden. The creature is about six
inches in length, has tail like an eel and a
head like catfish, has four legs similar to
those Of an alligator, and fins on either side
like fish. The axoloti is said to be native
of Mexico, and there is much surprise to
know how 1t came to Colorado. The bite OF
this fish is said to be very poisonous, and 1t
subsists on worms and flies. It Is eaten by
the Mexicans, being taken In large numbers
from lake near the City Of Mexico.

THE SUSSEX COUNTY ratification meeting
in Georgetown yesterday was even more Of
a failure than the one the Dover ring held in
this city some time ago. Chairman Harring-
tonand Major Lofand we're the only
speakers. We suppose Mr.. Harrington
again told how he "reads 1t IN
''the sky" aud "smells 1t in the air." and
that Major Lohand waxed hoarsely eloquent
over united Republican party. But while
they were doing all this where was Jacob
Moore, who wants TO see the party succeed
Aud where was Daniel J. Lawton, who has
worked so hard Tor the partyl And where
was Lawyer Charles Richards, whose
Republicansm is as ardent as that of any
man in the county 1t really does not look
improbable that there are some other promi-
nent Republicans who will not train with
g Boss " Harrington in his proud leader

IT is greatly to be feared that the
Delaware State Fair must this year be con-
signed to the limbo Of fruitiess efforts.
Jupiter Pluvius and rude Boreas have inter
posed their veto on the public enjoyment,
and the committee Icing mere mortals are
unable to override it, The loss cannot fail
to be heavy even this, however, is nothing
to the discouragement Of committee and ex-
hibitors alike as regards future shows,
But every disaster has it's lesson, and that
derived from the present fiasco of the
State Fair would seem to be the suggestion
Of antedating or postponing the event so az
10 steer clear of the equinoctial disturbance.
The end of August would be very suitable
period, and SO would be the second week In
October, under the genial influence of In
dian summer. There are so many excellent
features, social and economical, presented
in our State Fair, SO many interests to be
stimulated or retarded that Il cannot but
seem desirable to exclude the elements from
causes that might operate against It's sue
cess.
