Carrying Out the Popular VIII.

Had the popular will of the people
of Wilmington not been carried out in
the selection ofa delegate to the Chicago
Convention by the State Convention on
Thursday, the new rules just adopted
by the convention for the Government
of the party would have been no more
than rope of sand. 1t is creditable to
the convention that in the first strain
brought upon it under the new rules
that latter were not disregarded. Will
mington constituted one district and had
forty delegates.
From thirty to thirty-five of those
delegates were in favor Of Washington
Hastings for delegate to Chicago. Mr..
Hastings was decidedly in favor of
unpledged delegates to Chicago as were
the large majority of the Convention.
But the greatest difference between Mr..
Hastings and the delegates outside OF
the first district, was that Mr.. Hastings
was known not to be enthusiastic for
the nomination of Blaine for President
if indeed he was in favor of him at all
under any circumstances except as a
last choice or unless it was made clear
to him that Blaine was the decided
choice of the pivotal Republican States,
and that he could carry them beyond a
doubt.
A large majority Of the delegates
at the Convention were in favor of MIR.
Blaine and could have easily defeated
Mr.. Hastings had they seen proper tc
do so. But they were more in favor
of the local popular rights and the local
opinions Of the people than they were
of any particular candidate for the
Presidency and they were not willing
to override the choice of the delegates
from Wilmington in the face ofthe new
rules they had just adopted for the sake
ofgaining an avowed friend for Mr.
Blaine in the selection of delegate
who was not the choice of the district
The Convention had i. in it's power and
would gladly have chosen some othel
person.
Mr.. Rudolph, we believe was
the choice Of the decided Blaine dele
gates as u delegate to Chi
cago, but the sentiment of the Whining
ton delegates was for Mr.. Hastings ant
that sentiment was respected by tn
Convention. If the local popular viii
of the people will always be carried ou
by future Conventions as it was In tn
last, one of the great causes for conten
ton in the Republican party of Dela
ware will be removed. 1t always pay
in politics as in every other thing to b.
straightforward and honest.

Inclusive then May 23d, oath and 25th,

dealers. Having remOve ed to the large and CEN
trally located warehouse, No. 1l6 6& llS King ST.,
where our facilities for handling and display
ing goods is largely increased, we would
solicit a continuance Of patronage SO literally
extended to US at our old stand. Our line Of
Agricultural Implements embraces every farm
tool and machine that Is required on Arm,
and we shall in the future as in the past, ad-
here to Onr established rule-tO deal only in
first class goods. An experience of over
twenty years in the Agricultural Implement
business, enables us to discriminate with GER
tainty between machinery that is OF real
value and r. liable, and that which Is cheaply
run together to be sold for > low price without
regard to durability or perfection In operation;
OF the latter we handle none. We can only
expect to merit your confidence hv selling IN
plements that shall prove as represented, and
leave the chea p built machinery TO be sup
piled by itinerant dealers who have no abidi " z
place, who are here to-day to tell q wonderful
tale OF a cheapmachine, and one with your
money Tomorrow, leaving yon with an imple-
mpnt that soon proves valueless.
You are cordially invited to call and exam

The New and toe Old Way.

We wonder now when we look back
upon the past course of the Republican
party of this State how it got along as
we'll as it did under the old mode of
choosing the Slate Central Committee.
The defects of the old system appear the
more glaring when compared with the
equitable plan adopted by the late Re-
publican State Convention. Formerly,
whoever happened to be President Of
the Convention, and the candidates
selected by that convention had the
naming of the State Central Committee
from one county or from one city. Now,
under the newly adopted plan the State
is dintricted comparatively equitably
into four dist riots, Wilmington being
one, the rest, or rather the rural part of
New Castle County being the second,
Kent County being the third, and Sus-
sex County the fourth
Each district is entitled to three mem
bers of the COMMITTEES, which, if the re-
form would stop right there, would be
a vast improvement over the old sys-
TEN. But in addition to this better
plan is the privilege given to the dele.
gates Of each district to choose theil
own members of the Committee. By
this rule a candidate for Governor OF
Congress in Sussex will not have tn.
naming of committee for Whining
ton; neither will candidate for Viii
mington have the naming of commit
tee for Sussex, as formerly was tn,
rule. .-.
This is carrying out the true idea o
popular local rights and popular self
government. 1t is reasonable to sup
pose that the people of Sussex Count,
know better how to conduct their owl
campaigns than others who live in dis
tant parts of the State, and that tn
Republicans of Wilmington can man
age their affairs better than the Repub
icans of Sussex can manage them TO
them.
In perfect keeping with the spiri
which prompted the reform in tn
matter of choosing district committees
the committees of the districts in a col
lective capacity are authorized to selec
a chairman, thus relieving the candi
dates for Governor or for Congress fron
all responsibility in conducting tn
campaign, except so far as his recon
mendation or opinion may be adopte
by the committee.
This is great improvement over tn
old plan, and with this reform put i
working order we can well overlook an
excuse the excitements attending tn
convention. To our mind there is onl
one little drawback to the new plan
and that consists in surveillance @
the district committees by the conven
tion, by which such committees may b
rejected by the convention. This, how
ever, is not a serious objection, and ma,
oftener result in more good than harm
as any reasonably constructed commit
tee will hardly be rejected by an intel
ligent and deliberative convention =
Altogether the new plan is vast i'm
provement upon the old slip shod plan
and we believe it will work for the goo
of the Republican party of Delaware
All that is needed now to secure victor
under a full and fair assessment is ear
nest work and concentrated effort. lie
the Republicans all along the line wax
up and 60 to work.

CATCHING SHARKS.

81 How do you catch sharks with n
hook and line in boat ?" Was asked OF
one of the men.
"a In this way" he replied. "Take q
large iron hook and bait it with some
kind of fish; few feet of chain is gen.
orally attached to the hook, which is
joined to rope. This rope is of con-
siderable length, and is fastened to q
buoy, and the buoy is thrown into the
water, being made fast to the boat by o
rope. The shark cannot sink the buoy,
but tovs it around pretty lively for a
while, and in its efforts to dive deep
pulls its mouth open, and he fills with
water and browns. If the line were
fastened to the boat instead of the buoy
the shark would tip the boat over very
quickly, MS their movements are very
rapid. "-GaiveSton NeWs.
