The Election Reform bill, passed by
the British parliament, remarks the Phil.
adelphia Record, has, it is claimed, prac-
tioally put stop to bribery and reduced
by rs per cent the cost of general par
hamentary elections, which in some ysers
had amounted to 800, 0Oo, 900. The fact,
too, that ths bride giver has no means Of
ascertaining how the bride taker votes,
has, doubtless, also helped to lessen cor.
ruption. There may, of course, still be
individual cases OF bribery; but the law
appears to be so stringent, and the pun
ishment for violation SO severe, that
British politicians are unwilling to take

Delawareans read with mingled indig-
nation and amusement paragraph in a
Wilmington letter printed In Thursdey,s
New York Herald which will probably be
accepted as true by three lfourths of that
papers readers. Judged by this para
graph, that letter may have been the p.o-
duction of q very young and guliihle
press representative who had stopped
over between trains in Wilmington and
fallen into the hands OF some practical
joker who took delight in Swelling his
head" This is the only charitable pre-.
sumption, for if We assume it TO have
been written by one with better facilities
for information, we must denounce It's
writer as conscienceless falsitior. This
dupe or liar, whichever he be, drawa
a CORY picture Of the horrors OF
Delaware'a whipping post. He tells
ths Herald that the lush is vigorously"
applied that blood is frequently drawn
at every stroke that often when the
punishment is over the culprit is reeklng
in blood from head to foot, and the post
and ground hespattered with gore. II is
just such internal Misrepresentation as
this that inspires many good but credu-
ious people of other states, who do not
know us, to regard Delaware as a he
nighted land and its sheriffs as little lees
rsyoltingly cruel than the executioners of
the dark ages. 1t is unquestionably in
Just this way-kicking the tru h out of
sight and giving free rein to the depravsd
imagination that regards making "a good
story of it" as the only aim to be kept in
view--that many Of the Sensational
southern outrage yarns of Sec
tional journalism are manufactured.

blood Ia never drawn by the official lash,
but in looking back over the many whip.

Castle, during o residence in this locality
going back as man and boy some forty
years, the editor of the GAZETTE can
oonsoientiously say that he has yet to see
the first drop of blood drawn under the
application Of the lash, and be feels cen
fident that there are hundreds of men in
New Castle county who can bear similar
testimony. In rare instances does the
culprit besray half the suffering of the
average boy under the discipline of the
parental rod. The sting of the punish.

The Vote ON Convention.

a question that is now occupying the
attention Of the people of Delaware with
an eaTnestuess at least equal to that of
the senatorial succession may be stated
thus: What is the outlook for ccrs.itu-
tional convention, since the joint session
Of last week and ns influenced by that
joint session? The impression is prevalent
that the situation has been changed or
modified by the action of that session
end that, in consequence thereof, the
prospect that che two Houses Of the Gen.
eTal Assembly will agree upon soma
method OF calling convention should be
considered from very different point Of
visw than would have been occupied
before that joint session was held.
To begin with ii requires for such con.
current action q majority vote In each
houae. In the Senate, the votes OF three
Deinocratic members added TO those of
the two Republican members would con.
stitute sach majority. The ground
taken by the Democratic msnbsIa who
expressed themselves ia the joint session
before the vote had been taken which
committed that joint session to dsela
ration Of the sufieiency of the vote Of
November lst, 1887, was set forth by
Messrs, Armstrong, Waterman, Lodge
Biggs and Donahoe. These spphesinan

tutional majority. That decision having
been rendered, and the Democratic mem
bers having previous to its being rem
dered and in the act oft being rendered,
placed themselves both by vote and
speech on record as to their position with
regard to the sufficiency of the vote of
1887, the contention is now made and
backed by wsighty authority, Demo-
cratic as we'll as Republican, that
the minority can consistently bow to the
expression Of the sense of the majority as
expressed by the deciding vote Of that
joint session and accept that vote as bind
ing in just the same sense as upon any
other matter OF legislation the opponents
OF o pending measure after having been
outvoted accept the situation and regard
themselves, as law abiding citizens, bound
to yield allegiance TO the laws, which,
though fought by them as long as fight
ing was in order, have now become

ment bya majority vote. In other words,

the case, there will be no inconsistency
in their supporting such convention Log

ticaslly precluded from supporting before
the sufiicieucy Of that vote had been thus
passed upon by majority vote Of both

Thc Result. OF ,he Senatorial oaucl

The Result OF the Senatorial Caucus
In the Republican Senatorial caucrs
George v. Massey led in number of votes
from the seventh to the thirty.ni bal
lot, and though he failed to secure the
nomination, he has been able to retain
what ought to be dearest to every real
man--his self-respect. He hos not gone
about like ward politician button- holing
Cor votes, and while il cannot help baiag
q disappointment to him not to have
gotten the nomination, it will always DO
q satisfaction to him, and something his
relatives and friends will ever have causo
to be proud Of, that through this whole
senatorial fight be has been gentleman
and not mere greedy scEambler after
Office. The same is true OF Mr.. Slnishers,
though as his chances OF success never
seemed SO great as thoss of MIR. Massey,
he could hardly have been under such
temptation to pull wires for his personal
benefit.
The people Of Delaware, however, have
at least one thing to be thankful for, and
that is the defeat Of the man who made
himself most conspicuous by adopting
methods in the opposite extreme. Mr.
Treat may bs 'hustler" in his business
methods, but those methods for political
purposes are not of the sort which the
best citizens OF Delaware think are b.
coming in man who aspiras to sit in the
United States. Senate as colleague OF
Senator Gray. Mr.. Treat evidently
thought that the end justified the means,
bat we would DO loath to believe that
the majority OF Dsiawsreans agree with
him. We may also be thankful that no
legislator laid himself open to the newt.
able charge of beng bought by voting
for j. Edward Addicks. This would have
been scsndalous.
But what OF the actual result? Tho
delegation of Wilmington business men
are OF course elated, and it would be
pleasant for the GAZETTE to feel that
There is cause for equal elation. But
some OF these gentlemen are either Gull
pably ignorant of the history OF Delaware
politics, or their memories are unfortu-
nsteiy bad. II they remembered a few
less things that aren't SO about suoh men
as Mr. Bayard and Mr. Gray, and few

more intelligence the merits OF him whom
the Republican legislators in caucus
have seen fit to nominate for United

is not necessary now to give in detail

with in this State, but It is safe to say
that were Mr. Higgins q Democrat, with

politically, the memories o. Iii i
men who hsYe seen ct to advocate his
