Very Satisfactory Results After 81
AOurs' Running.
The "a hour test OF the Amphitrite's
machinery by shs board Of government
engineers was completed Friday morning
at 8 O'Clock, and tie pleased expression
OF the courtenances of all directly inter
ested in the trial was suff cient testimony
that the results were satisfactory. The
engines raa smoothly and unintorruptelly
at full speed during the required time
and the monitor came nearer TO fulfilling
the specifications of the contract than
either Of ths monitors constructed at
Roach's or Cramps ship-yard which have
already been tested
The Amphifrite's wheel maie an aver
age OF almost 60 revolutions per minute
during the entire trial. The temperature
in Che Ere room during the night was
comparatively comfortable to that de-
yeioped in August last, and mono OF the
men succumbed last night. The ther-
mometer hovered between 1902 and 1862
during the entire time. The pumps
have been tested and tho engine room
vas tested ..attsr the machinery Friday.
Tho report OF the engineers will he
submitted 70 the chief Of the bureau of

Tho Republican League of Dela-
ware issues an Address.

The Republican League OF Delaware
has Issued call to the Republican clubs
Of the State, requesting each to send five
delegates 20 the convention OF the league
to be held OF Dover, Del Wednesday,
December 5th, 1888, for the purpose Of
selecting four delegates to represent the
State league Of Delaware la the oonven-
tion of the Republican league of the
United States, to be held on December
10Th, 1888, In the city of New York. The
call continues
It is OF the highest Importance to the
interests OF the Republican party that our
organizations In this State shall be pre-
eerved. 1t IL believed that the success OF
the party In Kent and Sussex counties, at
the recent elections, is In n great degree
attributable TO the organized Efforts of
our clubs, and that IL they had been put In
operation two years ago the party would
have achieved the same or probably more
complete SUCCESS ir New Castle county as in
Kent and Sussex.
II should be the duty of every club and
every member Of every club TO set about
immediately the arduous task OF counter
acting the oppressive and tyrRnnieRi pro-
Visions of the odious and infamous assess
ment and collection laws, which. as adm n
istered by the party IN power, have placed
and for is years have Kept In power the
Democratic party, which, In truth and In
fact, has In oil these yearsbeep the minority
party in this State.
As the Republican party will have at the
next session OF the General Assembly ma
jority in only one branch OF that body, II
will be impossible TO repeal those laws
without the aid Of at least three Demo-
cratic members Of the Senate, and our cnly
relief, therefore, will be found in the Wig
ilance and unuting labor of our local Of
gauizltions In procuring the name Of every
Republican Ia overy hundred Of the State
to be placed on the assessment list and TAX
ing caro- TO look after the payment Of taxea
OF that class who heretofore have been
made the victims Of these iniquttou5 laws.
There has not been au election held In
this State since the passage OF these unIust
enHctments that would not have resulted
in a Republican triumph but for their dis
honest administration. For proof OF this
assertion we need not search farther back
than the late election, especially In Nov
| Castle county, In which county there are
| now 5000 Republican voters who have
been npjustly deprived OF their right
OF suffrage, by being dropped from
the assessment lists after theil
names have been handed In, or BY being re-
turned delinquent while being both raady
and willing to pay their taxes had they beer
called on 80 to do. II Is TO be hoped, there
/ fore, that the members of our Organization
| will take this matter to heart and each and
| all Of us do our whole duty In this respect
no that In the election two years hence W.
may achieve victory In each and everI
coanty in the state.

AS 20 the senatorial Contest.

D0YFr ueH, Lem
Tbs Republicans seem to be worrying
themselves about rumored contest in
volvipg Mr.. Richardson's seat in the
State Senate. Taey are calling Dsmo-
Gratis kneyes, rascals and oonspirators.
1t occurs to us that such talk as this
comes with bad grace from men who
prsc;iced tho most dishonorable and das.
tsrdly frauds in Kent county and who
openly boast that they bought Sussex
county with MIR. Qqey's doodle. How can
these men have the hardihoe d to proclaim
that their triumph ia an honest expression
of public sentiment? So far as the
Eumorsd contest referred to above is con-
cerned we would say that the Dsmoorats
have So yet taken no steps in that direo-
ton nor do We know that anything of
the kind will be done. One thing ia cure,
however, thst if the contest il begun it
will be carried to o successful issue and
the fraud triokefy and corruption which
would thereby be unearthed would fully
vindicate the propriety OF suoh action.
