The Saulsburys and Delaware.

The Philadelphia Press sees in the pomi.
nation of Mr.. Charles @. Stockley as the
| Democratic candidate for Governor of Della.
ware, when it was known that Hon. Ell
salisbury, one of the present United States
senators from that State, preferred the
nomination of another, evidence that the
reign OF the Saulsburys is over. The Press
only needs to know little more about
Delaware politics 10 be able to state the
further important fact that the reign of the
Saulsburys there never began. The Della
ware Democrats have an old fashioned way
OF managing their own affairs in their own
way, and there are very few amongst them
who would consider preference by either
United States Senator or any other man as
settling the question of a nomination. or as
sound reason why other and less conspc-
uous Democrats should surrender their incIi
nations. In this particular instance Sen
ator Salisbury, though he had openly ex-
pressed desire for the nomination of
Mr.. Moore, manifestly had not enough
interest in the subject to stay home and give
any attention to ii, for he was visiting some
where In the South at the time the conyen
tion was held. IF he had been home he
could nQt hage controlled the convention,
and his inability is no sign of any loss OF
either power or popularity, since he
never had any power to dictate nomina-
tions, and the triumph Of his party will
almost certainly result in his reelection
to the United States Senate. But then the
Press learned politics in Pennsylvania, and
1t cannot understand, we presume, how
a State Convention could ignore the ex-
pressed wish Of a United States Senator, un-
less 1t was prepared to overwhelm him and
thrust him from public position. If it will
only give It's gigantic Intellect fair play on
the Delaware election throughout the can
vass, and gather truth Instead of errors for
1t to work on, 1t will comprehend the fact
that the Democrats Of Delaware do their
own thinking, their own Nominating and
their own Voting, and enough of the latter
to elect their candidates after they are nomi-
mated.
Meanwhile the Press doubtless enjoys its
belief that what 1t calls the "Saulsbury CO.
horts" are overthrown, that the Democratic
party of Delaware is disintegratiag, and that
with it will end the dark age of Della

THE MAINE SENATORS AND BLAINE.

The Legislature to be elected in Maine
this autumn will choose United States
Senator, Mr.. Frye's term expiring. b.
tween him and Mr. Blaine there does not
exist the greatest cordiality. There was
at one time good ground for the report
that Blaine hankered for his old seat in
the Senate held by Frye, and was quite
disposed TO try for it. But Frye would
not be crowded off the track. He is by
all odds the coming man, not in Maine
only, but in the Senate, on the Republi-
can side. He has convictions. He will
not prostitute his position to make
money, wherein he differs from Blaine as
one extreme from the other. He is the
superior of Blaine in acquired knowledge
aud better debater, but he has not the
industry nor the ambition of Blaine.
Few Senators are more welcome at the
White House than Frye. He feels that
it is so, and maniftsts the feeling when
ever it is proper. Hale is also in CLOSE
relations with Arthur, which is as much
as to say he is not devoted Blaine man
In fact, the two Maine Senators think
Mr.. Blaine has had his day, and neither
OF them proposes to stand back an inch
for HIM.

A TnTTERING PARTY.

Senator Don Cameron is in quand-
cry. Ho confidently expected that mis-
takes would be made by the Democratic
Convention of this State, and he now
finds that he was mistaken. He cannot
overcome the Independent movement
aud crush bis enemies. The point has
been reached when Cameron cannot COM
maud his lieutenants. They are willing
to resort to every measure to keep him
company, but self destruction they will
avoid.
President Arthur shrewd, far-seeing
politician that he is, appreciates the seri-
BUSINESS of the Republican position in
this State, and he has had very earnest
talk with Cameron. in which he told him
that he would hold him to strict account
ability for any mismanagement in the
use of the Administration patronage.
Beaver too is seriously rejecting. He
preceives the folly OF counting on sue.
cess with two Republican tickets in the
field aud is anxious to conciliate the fac
tions. Feeling the insecurity of his po-
sition he proposes to make as much as
possible out OF his present position. He
has an eye on the Senntorship, and
stranger things have happened than that
he should be the successor of Don Cam.
eron who created him. Senator Mitchell
has won victory which every one con
cedes. But it is not because he posses.
Sc, any great strategic ability. He hap
pened to take the helm at time when
the Republicans were demanding salts
faction for the aouses of many years. As
matters seem on the surface Don Gamer
on and his friends stand in slippery
places.

more than one-half of the crop has been
secured by careful harvesting and hous-
ing. While wheat is practically secure
there is believed to be good reason for
the belief that oats, rye, barley and the
minor cereals will be more abundant
than in any previous year during the last
two decades. Last years short wheat
crop is believed to have been the chief
cause in stimulating the greater acreage
in the smaller grains the present year.
The more prosperous appearance Of
things with the farmer is already telling
favorably on general business, and can
scarcely fail III the usual effects on mon
ey and stocks at the close of the season.

ised, the future has q most encouraging
outlook.
