Ill succeed himself. The Delawarean
nas always Teen a Bourbon OF the
Bourbons, but of late it has shown
wonderfully conservative spirit In the
last issue but one, it had a kind word
for Benz amin +. Butler Governor OF
Massac b usstts, while before no words
In the English vocabulary were severe
enough to be used in deDouncing him.
With the eye OF prophet the Senatorial
seer foresaw what might be in the iu-
ture. He saw the possibilities Of the
man hei had before denounced as thief
Butler and Beast becoming the
mocratic candidate for President,
and If nom In ated with fair chance Of
being elected. He 10 doubt foresaw
the possibility of Butler being in the
Presidential chair, and Eli Salisbury
in the Senate at the same time. Under
such circumstance the sudden convert
to Butlerlsm, knew that 1t was better
to be on the right than on the wrong
side OF the Beast" Tho distribution
Of the political patronage Of Del aware,
under a Democratic administration
would be- no small affair. How the
Salisbury family would lull In fat off,
ces, with the Senator parCeIllng them
out and telling the man he had before
called thief, who to appoint. There
would be richness indeed. But the
Senator's peace made wlth Butler
anothe u tiiCulty loCms up before him
to disturb his wsll laid pl ans and pleas
ant dreams, If schemua politicians
ever have such things. TteEe Is doubt
OF his return to the scuate. He dis
covers that the people are tired of
Salisbury rule. He finds bad look
ing revolt amongst the former faithful
Salisbury henchLeu OF Kent and Sus-
sex Counties Iu other days it made
no difference about the New Castle
delegation, while Kent ard Sussex re-
manned solid for "Mu holly" But
now there is au actual revOlt. There Ia
ali alarming Commoti0n amongst the
faithful in the lower equities that bodies
no good to the reigulng family. Are
not other waters as sweet as tuose In
Jordan said Naaman Are not other
Democrats a. wei! qualified aud as de
serving Of Office as the Salisbury tani-
ly? say the awakened Democrats of
the lower counties. But the con,axion
has spr. ad To New Castle. The Sena
tor is thoroughly alarmed. Il will lot
do to let his Senatorial .aurels wlJher
on his brow. He can bod few faith
full followers III the Kent and Sussex
delegations, but he must have the New
Castle delegation. IL must cone .o.id-
ly to his support, or lie Will d. o,-
teated.
On Saturday TIE Senator'S orgau
paid its respects to New Castle. +
found that the people Of tie upper
county, without distinction Of parry,
were t.dmOrius ior increased reprrseh-
tation. The oeuatCT4a. editor remen-
bereG the pledges that had been made
in the State Convention, TO give New
Castle a .st md fair representation.
The organ says these pledges must be
redeemed 1t ID Lot far, says the Sena-
tOrial editor, that one man il Kent and
Sussex should have more political in
fuence han two men IN New Castle.
Sensible talk Senator, but why have
you never tLDught Of IL before? You
had no tOa cue to voice tina, sentiment
in youI Opera House speech before the
election. Iltu every lltug looked
lovely. Mr. Whl'etey pr, 10 sed him

pIOui s+s OF Mr White.ey and the *
