CONGRESS has already begun to seri-
ously dabble with the land laws and it
now looks as though nothing would be
left but the homestead act under which
to finally take up the public land. The
average Eastern congressman seems to
have an idea hat common prairie land is
worth several hundred dollars an acre and
affects to look upon the fortunate owner
of 100 acres as n budding millionaire.

AN exchange wonders at the fact that
since the closing OF the saloons at Fargo,
Dakota, the revenue OF tho water com

statement very clearly indicates one of two
things: Either the water is 50 outrage
ously bad that it cannot be taken plain
or the people have a constitutional repug-
nance to it in that shape.

EACH day develops new phase in
the Senatorial contest, and each aspir-
ants friends are sanguine Of success
But the contest is growing more criti-
cal daily and the hot words and aecu-
sations are creating bitter feelings that
may rankle even after the election has
been made. Among conservative
men, it now looks as if none Of the
candidates named will be able to con-
troll a caucus, even if one is secured and
that the race is free-for-all yet. The
Sussex delegation has not been able
to get together. but enough of its MEM
bers are favorable to Treat to make him
q strong backing. James II. Lofiand
appears to have influence to prevent
its caueusing, bat cannot secure a fol-
lowing of more than one or possibly
two. Massey is handicapped by the
Grange, but fights in Smither's shadow
for his own boom; or, it failing, for a
compromise candidate of his naming
Who that may be, it is not known; but
possibly Senator Richardson might be
his legatee; they are friendly, and the
patronage would practically be the
same. Mr.. Higgins, with the aid of
the Evenfng Journal, is cracking at
every head put up in candidacy, and
has probably five members favorable
TO his name. This indicates that the
old party leaders are moving heaven
and earth to secure the hOnOrs, while
the young Republicans, who did all
the active work of the last campaign
and won success, are inactive under
the leadership Of Dr.. George Marshall,
who, by not organizing and leading
the forces at his command, is wasting
personal chances, and the Opportuni-
ties that the young Republicans Of
Delaware have to redeem the State
from not only the "black night" OI
Democracy, but from the quarrelsjeal-
ousies and mismanagement of Repub-
ucan leaders. All men make mis-
takes, and for them are more or less
excused: but for twenty years the
same blunders have been repeated by
these same Republican party leaders
of Delaware, until now mistakes look
like crime against the party. All
young Republicans are not infsllible,
as the League Convention at Dover
demonstrated; but it is better to have
the errors of the head, rather than
the premedltated blunders from the
heart, which mean to ruin if leaders
can not rule.

A Farmer Wanted in the United
States Senate.

ITO Hse Editor Of Farm and Hone.)
On Nov. 9th. political cyclone
struck the two lower counties of Della
ware and its effects will doubtless he
felt through the entire State, and at
least as far beyond its borders as WASH
ington. For the first time in over
thirty years, the minority Of the voters
of Delaware have elected enough mem-
bers of the Legislature to entitle them
to the choice of a UnitedsStates Sena-
tor. It is quite the custom to elect
lawyers to that position. But are
there not enough lawyers in that body
without sending another from Della
ware? The majority Of the voters and
taxpayers of Delaware are tillers ofthe
soil. aud we must follow the example
of men in other business, and look out
for our own business. If railroad COM
panies want legislation for their bene-
fit, they manage to send a railroad
man to headquarters. As agriculture
is the rock-bed on which all other bus
iness must rest, we want truly repre-
sentative man.
We have farmers in Delaware, who,
if elected, would be a credit to the
State, and would not only look out for
our interest, but for the best good of
all. We have been in the habit of let
ting politicians do this kind of work
that it seems almost out of place for
us to have anything to say about it.
Farmers are beginning to learn that
they have as much right to the front
seats as anyone else. and they propose
to occupy some of them. Politically
speaking Sussex county has the right
to name the man; but care not what
county he comes from, so he is man
of the people and will work for the in
terest Of the people.

LINCOLN.

DR.. J. A. Stevens and George L. Stevens
left this place for Florida on Thursday, the
9th Ill.
Mr.. William Clendaniel, of Garrison,N. Y,
is visiting friends here.
Mr. F. c. Shew is srecovering from severe
attack of sore eyes.
Mr. Tatman has been improving his prop
erty by painting. VIM. Morrison has also
been having his house newly painted.
The piling fever has struck our town, and
the first thing to suffer the effects Of the dew
astating axe is the grove. The grove is
doubly valuable for its being nearly in the
centre Of the town, and it is with regret that
our citizens see it removed.
There are four applicants for the Lincoln
postofice. John wilkins deserves il, and he
will probably get it. Although it will prob
ably be year before the ''rascals are turned
