The DEMOCRATS on Monday caused
= lively row in the House by the in
groductiCn Of a resolution to repeal the
niil which directs that only honorably
discharged Union soldiers and sailors

war we're aroused and some sharp talk
saAs INDUCED in by rebels who were in
lfsrope curing the war to keep from
lighting, claiming that the army was
1asde up Ut Democrats and that the
lebellion was put Gown by Dem ocrats.
The latter of course were worsted in
such An unequal contest. Discreet
AHmocrats should learn to let such
topics alone ii they do not want their

democrats might have waited and
thereby saved their sensitive feelings

Why We Oppose senator Bayard
"Why should the Radical press Of
this city so constantly try to traduce
Senator Bayard He is not now a
candidate for office" So says the &C.
zette. Senator Bayard, it is true, is
only . candidate for Office every six
years, but he manages through Demo
cratic manipulations and disfrsnchise.
ment Of Republican voters to elect him
self United States Senator. We dis
agree with the Gazette. While Sena.
toy Bayard is only elected every six
years, his preparations for such cleo
tions extend through the whole six
years between elections. The two Sem
ators elected from each county this
coming fall will vote for or against Mr..
Bayard four years hence, and every
Republican DISTINGUISHED now will help
the election of . Democratic Senator
next November who will vote for Mr..
Bayald in 1886. None know better
than Mr.. Bayard that if New Castle
county had the joint representation to
which she is entitled, and that every
Republican was permitted to vote he
would never see the inside Of the Sen
ate chamber as United States Sena-
tor. 1t is because Mr.. Bayard is not
elected by the fair expression OF the
people of his own county is why we
oppose him and always will oppose him
40 long az he is not the choice OF the
people fairly expressed.

Last evening John Dougherty was
before the Mayor charged with being
drunk and disorderly, and annoying
his neighbors. John looked as if he
had had q set too with thrashing ma
chine and got the worst Of it. Several
of his neighUors testified to the fact of
John getting drunk, and making that
particular part of Searlts street very
undesirable place to reside, and as this
was not the first time that complaints
had been lodged against him, the
Mayor fined him IS and costs. ''Its
