part would do much TO make all
local papers better. Against onr
own correspondents we have no
fault to find. On the contrary, we
tender them our most hearty thanks
for the great services they have rem
dcred us and our readers in the past.
And if the HERALD is welcomed
weekly visitor to many households,
it is owing in great measure to
their kind efforts. But to this we
would add the cxhortation not to
be weary of well doing; instead of
letting weeks slip by without writ
ing, We would ask them to write
much, write early and write often.
With full appreciation of the re-
sponsibilitY resting upon us; we
commence another year of labor
with profound gratitude to our
friends, correspondents and patrons
for all past favors, and they are
many, and with malice toward
none, and charity to ALL" we shall
go forward with the renewed deter,
mination to devote the paper to the
interests of the county, which are
general and not special except il
the true sense of the word. What
! the HERALD has been in the past il
will be in the future, with such i'm
provements as our experience sug
gcsts and the patronage accorded III
warrants. That the paper may in a
measure contribute to all the ma
teral interests of this section of the
State is our most earnest desire.

The State Seals written Up by n Com
nnfttee of the Historical Society.

NhAttt4 OF hm6 HhtHtDEhCnt SOChBtYe
The Delaware Historical Society held
its last meeting for this summer at the
society rooms Monday. Judge Wales,
tho president, was in the chair, and
Willard HI. Porter acted as secretary.
Willard Salisbury, Jr., was elected to
membership. The finance committee re-
ported balance of 1872 in the treasury.
The librarian was instructed to exchange
documents with the authorities at WASH
ington in such manner as will add TO
and complete the records of the society.
DIR. L.. p. Bush, as member of the
committee appointed for the purpose,
read history of the seals of Delaware,
which was accepted and ordered to be
filed. The report showed that previous
TO 1852 the seal used was that OF the pro-
vince of New York. In the year named
above the ''three counties" used the sefl
of the Duke of York. In 1888 the court
seal was adopted and continued as the
official stamp until 1751, during which
year the first seal of the State was made
and came into use. II was continued
until 1776, when new seal was adopted.
This lasted until 1892. In 1898 another
new one was ordered and used until 1S47,
when the present seal was made.

STILL A OANDIDATE.
Robert w. Chambers Considers
Himself the Democratic Nominee
for Sheriff.

hSA
From Every Evening Of yesterday,
An EVERY EVENING representative called
upon Robert w. Chambers to-day and
asked him his position in regard to the
sheriffalty election. Mr.. Chambers re-
piled 81 regard myself as having been
defrauded out of the nomination and 1
will run at the election. consider myself
as the successful nominee, and as such /
will run as the candidate of the party.
My friends demand that 1 should run,
and | think will be elected"
He was asked whether he would run as
an independent. He answered:
''No. / do not believe in Indepen-
dents. / am q Democrat, have always
been Democrat, and l will run as a
Democrat and as the peoples choice. I
will run as the nominee of the party and
will push my campaign IS vigorously as
/ can. | did not have much money be-
fore the nomination and haven't much
now, but l will make the campaign as
vigorous as l know how"
Patrick Lambert, the candidate for cor
oner, whose vote was affected similarly to
that of Chambers by the reputation OF
parts of the Third and First wards, and
the entire Tenth, is said to be also in the
field, and will seek election on an Inde-
pendent ticket. Mr.. Lambert was re-
ported nd saying before the executive
committee that he was perfectly willing
to abide by it's decision, but to some OF
his friends he is stated to have denied
giving expression to any such sentiments.
William Writ, another of the candi-
dates for coroner, returns thanks to his
friends, pledges himself to support the
whole ticket and TO come before his party
two years hence as candidate for"tht
nomination.
