..The New Y ork Tribune draws GER
tain deductions from the results of the
recent election which are also likely to
be drawn by certain of our esteemed but
misguided Democratic contemporaries.
The Tribune very justly concludes that
the returns show that the rapidly grow
ing Territories and newer States are, as
rule, strongly Republican. The RE-
PUBLICAN recently pointed out this fact
and showed that the Republican party
was likely to profit and be strengthens
by the admission to the sisterhood OF
States of such populous and prosperous
Territories as Dakota, Washington
Wyoming, and possibly Montana and
Idaho.
In all those territories the drift of pc.
litical sentiment has, of late years, been
strongly toward the Republican party,
and the liberal principles which have al
ways been characteristic of that party.
Only the hide bound territories of Utah
andNew Mexico, the one under the bane-
full influence of the Mormon church and
its polygamous tendencies, and the 9TH
er cursed by hybrid population Of
Mexican and Indian half. breeds have
shown any fondness for the modern De-
mocratic party.
But the great, healthy and growing
territories of the Northwest, populated,
as they mainly are, by emigrants from
Northern and Eastern States, and by
those from Scandinavian and German
countries afford IL population that both
in point of number ard assimilation is
Well worthy OF being taken into account
1t would be tie same even if the mai II
instead of being Republicans. Their
number and thrift entitle them to recog-
milton, no matter what their political
preferences. But it would be hard
work to make anything but Republicans
out of the great majority of those hardy
and industrious pioneers. Democratic
majorities are greater in the great cities
like New York, Brooklyn. Boston and
New Orleans; out on the prairies, among
the mountains, beside the streams, and
wherever the air is pure and fresh and
free, look out for Republican majorities
at election time.
There is really no good reason why
the number of States in the Union
should not speedily increase from 3S to
at least 43. Population, wealth, vested
property interests and the inherent
rights of citizenship demand it. To
refuse the admission of these populous
and thrifty Territories into the commun.
ity of States which tolerates several
which are more insignificant from any
standpoint than these young and still
growing giants, would be an act of SUBJ
stantial injustice of which we do not be-
lieVe a Republican Congress and a Re-
publican President will be guilty.
Let the claims of these aspirants for
statehood be fully aad favorably consid-
cred by the new Congress. So shall Jus.
tice be done-and also long step b.
taken in the direction of continued Re-
publican supremacy in the councils of
the nation"

A Very Sensible Move.

A committee composed of six promi-
nent manufacturers left Bennington,
Ala. for Indianapolis last Saturday, to
present an address to President-elect
Harrison. The address will set forth
that political parties in the South can
now divide on practical issues; that the
signers of the address are pleased with
the triumph of protection, and they ask
Gen. Harrison to recognize the best ele-
ment in the Republican party in MAX
ing appointments in the South. 1t has
been signed by about so prominent
manufacturers and business men, most
of them Democrats.
The text of the address is as follows:
We, the undersigned citizens of Ala.
bama, congratulate you and the coun-
try OIL the success of the principles
which have caused your election, be-
cause we believe that protective tar
if will promote and aid the develop
ments OF our natural resources, and be-
cause an issue free from sectional feel
ing and prejudices is now presented
upon which the people of the South
can divide, according to the dictates of
reason and conviction. We know there
are large numbers in this section who
think as we do, and are only restrained
from public expression and advocacy Of
their opinions, by a feeling of uncer-
tainty as to what will be the policy
adopted in the treatment Of the South.
ern problem, and the apprehension that
any change in our local governments
will be detrimental to our best interests.
This fear, we believe, will be material
ly lessened by good appointments from
that class of Republicans who COM
mand the confidence and respect OF the
communities in which they live. Such
appointments will develop two strong
parties, and thus secure to its good gov
ernments.

But for the intervention of the Every
Evening the contest between Mr.. Hickman
and Mr.. PYLE, who are personal friends,
would not have created tho least excite
ment. ID lis a wen known fact that there
are men to be found In every community
who are ever ready to lend themselves TO
any direputable business for money a
thousand dollars appears 20 have been
the amount demanded Of Mr.. Hickman
Mr.. Hickman would not couutenance such
deal, and hence the lying editor Of
Every Evening has como back over its
files and published q rehash of what the
people knew years ago. Mr.. Hickman
has all the newspapers OF this city de-
Tending him against the vile stuff found
In Every Evening. Mr. Hickman needs
no defence, his reputation stands like a
stone wall against the silly attack Of tho
mean hirelinus of an independent print

not alarmed in the least he has
a host OF warm friends and many are
being added day by day SO his victorious
column Men from without the city are
coming to his aid and are astOnished at
the impudcnce Of Every Evening. 1t will
be found that the charges made against
Mr. Hickman are from the imagination
Of disappointed man. and no men of
sense pay the least attention TO such
trlfling assertions. Mr. Hickman has always
been a Democrat, and has taken an inter
est in all elections. In conversation
with many Of our business men they ex-
press themselves in favor of Mr.. Hiok
mans denomination and because of the
part Every Evening has taken viii take
lively interest in his behalf Now
public opinion is largely in favor Of Mr..
Hickman, and II bets show the way the
wind blows. 100 60 40 is offered on the
nomination Of Hickman. The friends Of
Mr.. Hickman believe that by Saturday
morning he win have no opposition.

REPEAL 10 ASSESSMENT LAW

The intelligent voters Of Wilmington
will be surprised TO learn that the Levy
Court is responsible for the statues for
assessing and collecting the county taxes.
This is what Every Evening would have
them believe. II is not true however.
The Legislature enacts all laws or
course laws are occasionally dictated by
bossee as, for example, a part Of these
infamous tax laws were dictated
by Mr.. Bayard The Levy Court
on the other hand merely executes the
laws. so far as the Levy Court Of New
Castle county has executed the tax laws
during the last eight OF ten years. it was
done by the advice of Senator George
Gray and John H Rodney. Esq These
two eminent members Of the bar Of this
county are responsible for whatever the
Levy Court did in respect TO this matter
The voters Of Wilmington need not
look to the Levy Court for relief, for that
body cannot possibly help them. We
must loek-to the Legislature for a repeal
of the law which was enacted fifteen
years ago with the deliberate intent Of
DISTINGUISHING the newly enfranchised
eoIored voters. This baneful act will
continue to do its intended work whether
Mr.. Hickman or Mr. Pyle is successful on
Saturday. 1t viii continue TO do les in
famous work until it is repealed by the
General Assembly Of the state.

mean, There is not a road leading from
this city that is not a highway to some

rents, when they can procure cheap and
beautiful homes in the suburbs, provided
always that the means Of travel will

In the circumstances they want good
roads. good bridges and good street car

strong and liberal management of the
Board Of Street Directors they are rap
idly improving. Our street car system
has recently been extended TO Riverview
and now it is being extended tothat busy
and growing portion of the community
beyond the Eleventh street bridge. Our
bridges. thanks TO Commissioner Hiek

Our railroad facilities are being steadily
improved. Our opportunities for exten

Castle from South Wilmington, to Silver
brook, to the Highlands and along the
line Of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
are almost illimitable.
If our men who look after the streets

railroads viii continue to improve their
part Of our beautiful city, the decade
between 1890 and 1900 win be the most
prosperous in the history Of Wilmington.
