pecially those goods
we must sell the next
month or carry until
another season. But
having noticed for
some time the extrav-
agant claims in way
ofreductions made by
most all advertisers,
and knowing that
readers are aware
that many Of these
were the most fragrant
falsehoods, we decided
to avoid that which,
if continued, will dis
gust buyers, and after
awhile render adver-
tising of no effect.
In all of our adver-
tisements we have
simply stated what we
have to sell and the
prices at which we
were selling the same,
and at no time in our
business experience
have we seen so much
benefit derived from
advertising.
Our Coat stock will
probably receive the
] largest share of our
; attention for the next
J 30 days. Our sales
for the last 80 days
/ have exceeded our
Z most sanguine eXpec-
: tations. The warm,
rainy weather had no
perceivable effect
upon it. This we at

our Coats are superior

SEEKING A CHANGE.
The Democrats of New Castle County OPP
pose the County Meeting.

The Democrats of New Castle County OPP
pose the County Meeting.
The Democrats of New Castle county
are seriously thinking Of abolishing the
county meeting which has been held every
two years for many years. The Republi-
cans of the county formerly held similar
meetings biennially for the direction Of
the party, but they discarded the method
nearly twenty years ago and applied the
Crawford system Of primary election TO
the regulation Of all party affairs. The
county meeting usually was a stormy
gathering. II was a free field wherein
free fights were a common occurrence,
Good lungs, long legs, and strong arms
were often more potent than right, par
liamentary usage or knowledge OF the
situation The crowd or faction that
reached the ground first with the most
numerous following always won the vic
tory, and thus the best sense Of the party
was often stifled by the clamor and bully
ing Of the oiliceseeker and his hackers. IL
was these things that compelled the Re.
publicans TO throw the county meeting
overheard.
The Democrats of New Castle county
held their latest county meeting at the
old court house in New Castle last May.
IL was a stormy time, as the readers OF
the EVENING JOURNAL no doubt recolleet.
Two county meetings were held that day,
and the schism threatened the party
for several weeks after the meeting. The
break was finally healed through the wis
dom and adroitness of the county execu
tive committee, and the party entered
the contest OF 1888 with a solid front
But the party does not intend to repeat
the risk Of 1888. and on Wednesday at 3
meeting Of the executive committee helC
in this city to square up the accounts fol
last year, this matter was brought up anC
as result Of the discussion the following
resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That an election for sixty
two delegates-fve for each hundred ant
one for each ward of the city of vii
mington--be held on Saturday, the 4tl
day Of May next, and that the delegates
chosen nj said election shall meet at the
old court house in the city of New Gas
tie on Saturday, May 18th, 1899, at
o'clock D. M. and shall then and there
take into consideration the revision O
the rules Of the Democratic party, TO the
end that the county meeting fixed in sale
rules shall be abolished
Resolved, That the judges appointed
and who held the nomination election 70
county officers, shall hold said election
and they shall open the polls IN each elec
ton district in the county at I o'clock, Z
m, and close the same at 5 o'clock, p. m
Resolved, That at the close Of sal
election the judges thereof shall O
once make certificate OF the election an
return the same to the chairman of thi
committee. who shall attend at sal col
vention on May II and certify 70 sal
convention the election Of said delegates
kSuch convention It is believed, coul
adopt any rules for the government 9
the party that It saw fit to adopt. TIL
question. now that it is launched, will b
thoroughly considered by the Democrat
for the next few months.
