The Democratic Convention.

The probable action of the Democratic
State Convention at Dover to-day is as much
in doubt as ever. Our staff correspondent
at Dover telegraphs that it is stated
there on good authority that j. Turpin
Moore has written to friend declaring his
willingness to accept the nomination If ten
dered him, and that the current belief in the
capital is that If this decision is reported to
the Convention it will result in Mr.
Moore's nomination, while on the other hand
another staff correspondent telegraphs from
Laurel that Mr.. Moore in an interview to-
day positively declares that he will not be a
candidate under any circumstances.
This is mixing with vengeance, but we
prefer to accept Mr. Moore's positive docli-
nation as finally ruling him out of the field,
and have no doubt that either Mr.. Stockley or
Mr.. Paynter will be the choice ofthe Conven-
ton, if Sussex can agree upon a choice.
But the possibility of the tangle being too
great for Sussex to unravel is another feature
of complexity in the situation that makes
1t impossible to offer any intelligent pre-
diction concerning the action of the Conven-
of the candidates thus far named is chosen
1t will be a choice worthy the hearty sup
port of every Democrat in the State, and we
have sufficient faith in the wisdom Of the
gentlemen composing the Convention to feel
assured that if it shall be deemed
advisable to select as the head of the ticket
some one not now i'll the field its choice will
be equally commendable We think il may
be said with every degree OF assurance that
If the candidate for Governor is taken
from Sussex, as in all probability
he will be, then the choice for
representative to Congress will fall upon
Charles B. Lore, Esq, and certainly wiser
selection in every respect could not be made
We hope to be able to announce the result
ofthe conventions action in our late editions
to-day.

The "Match Monopoly"

The communication from William II.
Swift, President Of the Diamond Match
Company, which we print to-day exhibits in
clear light the utter falsity of. the charge
which has been repeatedly made and per.
sistently harped upon by the morning organ
and the Third street thief, during the past
few days, with reference to Senator Bayard's
attitude toward the tax on matches. Itwas
scarcely necessary to take the trouble to
make such denial as that Mr.. Swift sends
US, or, indeed any denial at all. Certainly
1t was not necessary here among the people
who have known Mr.. Bayard all his life,
and we will venture considerable wager
that neither the morning organ nor its
thieving auxiliary can produce the name of
a single Republican of any standing in this
city or State, or of the United States. who
will publicly declare that he shares in the
belief which these two papers pretend to
hold in the matter.
The "hired man" of the Third street
sWindle would doubtless attempt, for party
or personal gain, any conceivable indiscre-
tion with the hope, when threatened with
punishment, of being permitted to cring-
ingly crawl out Of ii, but we do not be-
lieVe that the editor of the morning organ
would have the temerity to make over his
own signature the charge which he has re-
peatedly made in his paper concerning Mr..
Bayard and the Diamond Match Company.
Even with the advantage of an imperson-
ality which the chance occupancy of an
editorial chair gave him, he had not the
manliness to formulate his Indictment in
plain language, but sought by cowardly in
nuendo and covert sueer to infict an ire
parable injury where the plain truth, plainly
told, would have reflected credit. There are
we know, a few persons living in this city
the imostly of imported variety-who would
gladly believe anything that appeared dero-
gatory to a Delaware Democrat, however
irreproachable his character, or however
destitute of proof or plausibility the charge
against him might be. 1t is these people who
have been coaching the morning organ for
its venturesome voyage upon the troubled
sea of Delaware politics, and it is mainly to
their instigations thatwe are indebted for the
slanderous invention of their servile party
organ which Mr.. Swift so fatty disproves.
1t is the inevitable and fitting fate of such
people to be cursed with mouthpiece of no
better character than themselves, which
lacks the power to win either respect for
itself or consideration for its masters, and
they are consequently at a serious dsad-
vantage in any attempt to enforce their pecu-
liar views beyond their own narrow circle.
In the present instance they are even less
fortunate than they have been in a dozen
previous oncs of a similar nature The
larger and respectable portion of the com
