HaDpy RefOrme eFs.

No one has reason TO be 80 happy az
the Workingmen' Reform Association.
Both the candidates for Mayor, having
answered all the questions propounded,
the Association had nothing else to 10
than to let every man vote as he
deemed proper at the city election,
which it is quite probable they would
have done anyhow. After this we may
reasonably suppose that no trouble
will arise from the factor which COM
poses the Workingmen's Refor Asso
ciation. But this questi on ruus little
farther than mere questions by the AS.
sociation and answers by the candi-
dates. The whole course Of the ID m"
ocracy of tho city since it has been in
power has been in opposition 10 reform.
Can it oe reasonably supposed that Mr..
Carpertor will. single handed, effect a
reform when his party is not in sym
pathy with it? No one doubts Mr
CarpeDter's sincerity, but every we'll
informed voter, who has watched the
course of events in this city for the
last ten years, will have very grave
doubts about the sincerity Of the Dem
n"racy vhen they MARSHAL themselves
on a rsform platform. Mr.. Carpenter
cannot and his larty will not let him
reform the party, even if he desired to
do so.
The case is entirely different with
DR.. Wales. Nobody can doubt his sin
cere desire for a reform, just As indi.
Gated in his letter TO the hetorm Asso-
citation. He has never been chronic
Office seeker, has never even held the
Office of tax collector. Que Office, how
ever, DR.. Wales filed that MI Gar
pepter did not. He was gallant CAP
tain in the army that crushed out the
rebellion This is the only otnca he
ever filed, and he filled it we'll. Does
anybody doubt that DR.. Wales would
effect the reforms asked for If elected ?
Wby his whole life has teeD spent in
reform. The question ia, who will be
more likely to br ing about the reforms
desired, DR.. Wales or Joseph l.. Car.

THE NEXT Sheriff and Coroner OF
New Castle County were nominated by
the Republican party last Saturday.
Daily Republican., 1882-05-22
THO Nominees for sheriff and
Coroner.

coroner.
Bv the honest decision Of the Repub
lican party of New Castle county, e1-
pressed laat Saturday, James Martin
was chosen as the standard bearer Of
that party az its candidate for the office
of Sheriff. All the gentlemen named
tor the nomination we're unexceptional
in character and ability, and either OF
them would have made q creditable
and strong can didate, but while this is
true, the majority of Mr.. Martin Is 80
great that it shows that while all mad
friends, he was the decided choice.
The large majority must set at rest any
complaints that may arise OF unfair
ness in holding the elections. In this
connection it affords us pleasure to say
that there were less complaints of un-
fairness than usual at nomination cleo
lions, which is a full guarantee of the
union of the party to secure victory
Mt the approaching election. Mr.. Mar
tin is well advanced in life, and Is one
of the Oldest and faithful members OF
the Republican party, and he and his
boys have always been persistent and
hard workers in the party in adversely
as well as in prosperity. He was for
tunate enough to secure the nomina
ton once before, hut that was bad
year for Republicans, and he WAS de-
feated by the late William Fl. Lambson
by 2S3 majority. A second defeat will
not overtake him if the Republicans of
the county will DO their duty as they
should, and as we believe they will.
Out of the multiplicity of candidates
for Coroner David Fl. Wingate, true
and tried Republican, seems to have
come out of the conflict with majority
on his side. He was hard pressed by
Mr.. Hickey, VINO had strong claims for
the office, and Mr.. Sparks also ran well
up in figures. Mr.. Weldin, who has
made capital coroner for two year,,
was strongly pushed, but the two yeNr
term, which is something unusual in
the usages of the party, was against
him. While we would wish there was
an office fol, each of the candidates, for
they are all worthy, We are pleased that
so popular gentleman as Mr.. Win
gate has Ssen chosen to lead the party
in the contest for coroner. There is no
discounting Mr.. Wingate's sterling Re-
publicanism. He has been a tower of
strength to his party in the Eighth
Ward and he will add strength to the
ticket in the coming election. For
quite number of years he was on the
police force before the city fell into
Democratic hands, and it is to his
credit that lie was always esteemed as
amongst the best members of the force.
Since leaving the regular police force he
has been a special police in the employ
of the p, W. & B. Railroad Company,
and has rendered the company efficient
service in the protection of their
property and in preserving order at the
west end yard and Delaware junction.
Mr.. Wingats should be, and we believe
will be, elected by large majority.

PORTLAND, ME.

If one can believe the Boston Globe, Eas-
tern Argus, Bangor Commercial and other
papers of their kind, a big slice of the DEM
ocratic party in Maine is in the market, and
for sale to the highest bidder. These jour
nails complain that the Republicans have
more money than the Fusionists have,
and express the fear that thousands of votes
will be bought AS Republicans will vote
their own ticket and do not need to be
bribed, the bought ballots must come from
the other side. Democrats Rust, according
to the Argus, be for sale in considerable
quantity Some of the Democratic newspa-
pers put the number on the block as high as
ten thousand, and profess to fear that the
Republicans will outbid them at the auction.
We believe this to be q base SANDER. We do
not believe that ten thousand or ten hundred
Democrats in Maine make practice of SELL
ing their votes. If we are mistaken, then
its Democracy is more corrupt even than
the bi.terest opponents have ever alleged.

If the story that the Gear would willingly
60 to war for the sake of directing the at
tention of his subjects away from domestic
politics is not true, it is not without
some confederation in the conduct of the
Russian representatives at the Conference,
nor is it inherently unreasonable. Irrespon-
sible rulers, whose home affairs are not in a
satisfactory condition, have often taken
refuge in foreign war, and if Alexander
could annex Constantinople to the Russian
Empire his popularity would know no
bounds. But before he makes the attempt
he is said to be contemplating, he would do
we'll to study the experience of the late En-
peror of the French, who tried this plan,
with memorable results.

sued a card this week stating that no one

cause he was not in his seat when the Riv-

was paired with Congressman Ladd, whose
health is robust and whose lungs are of
the soundest, as attendants on the Fusion
meeting in Alfred can testify. Mr.. Lindsey
would have voted to sustain the veto had he
been in Washington. AS Mr.. Laid observed
