The DOVER coNsplRAcy

The newspapers of this part OF the
country have been more or less agitated
during the last two days over an alleged
scheme to count out Mr. Alden b. Rich
ardson, the Republican State Senator
elect of East Dover hundred and thus
make the incoming Legislature a tie on
joint ballot which would prevent the
election Of a United States Senator. The
report has many of the elements Of a
frst-class newspaper sensation and it has
been worked already TO profitable
extent by the local newspaper correspon-
dents They find profit in the rumor and
we doubt that any one else will get a bit
of comfort out Of IT, There is no doubt
that the Democratic Senate could refuse
to admit Mr. Richardson, for each branch
Of the General Assembly is the Judge Of
the qualifications Of its own members.
But this suggests that the Republican
house can turn out the seven Democratic
representatives from this county. II the
Democratic senate should indulge in any
such funny business. II the Republicans
are worthy of the victory which they
have achieved they will be equal 70 any
occasion that may arise Somebody sug
gests that the Court Of Errors and An
peals may be used for the partisan end Of
retaining the Democratic representatives
in the lower branch We know to our sor-
Tow and disgrace that their are men sitting
as judges in this state who were an
pointed purely for political and indeed
fractional reasons, but notwithstanding
this unfortunate fact we cannot be made
to believe that the judiciary as body
would lend itself to any such conspiracy.
And suppose they should. Well. as we
have said before If the Republicans Of
Delaware are worthy of the victory which
they have achieved, they viii meet
such violence by violence. The
machinery Of the government
of Delaware would come to a stand
still, and the eonspirators would be
starved out of their holes like rats that
are left in an abandoned ship.
It is our opinion that only knaves can
hope to make by such scheme and only
fools are afraid to lose by it. Ourradvice
is to those rascally Democrats who have
conceived this conspiracy and to those
timid and faint hearted Republicans who
are nervous over it, both of them, to 90
about their business. The
conscience Of the community would
never tolerate such an outrage. The
honest men Of both parties would prevent
At. The patriotic citizen Of whatever
political faith would resist it to the end.
There is no occasion to be alarmed.
MIR Alden B. Richardson Of Dover will
SIT ia the next General Assembly, if life
IS spared TO that most excellent and patri
Otto citizen.

posed to use it. JUS is at the foundation
Of Democracy, but ambition will make
men so hort-sighted as TO think that
Democratic right can be perverted to ad-

enough to presume that Democracy is a
tool they can use, instead Of which thew

Delaware Democrats are reduced Ia
pitiable straights when they even talk
about securing a United States Senator
by unseating a Republican member of
the state Senate on a technical claim.
There is no doubt that the Democrats
have been beaten, but they claim that
some of the ballots cast for the Republi-
can candidate and which elected him
were illegal, because. though marked
Democratic, they contained majority of
Republican names The tickets were IN
fact Democratic but had been changed
by stiekers The very fine legal point
involved might be serviceable in a de-
batting society, but should never be- raised
