Political Opinions of the week, as
Gathered from our Exchanges.

WHEN WAS UNITY BROUGHT ABOUT
Dover Delawarean.
The County Democratic Central
Committee of Sussex, held a meeting
this week in Georgetown, to consider
the state of the party in that county.
One of the enthusiastic members an
nOunced to the committee that New
Castle county was good for about SOC
Democratic majority at the next elec-
tiOn. He further announced that the
Kent Democrats had settled all their
difficulties, and that Kent was good
for a cool thousand majority. This is
good news for the Democrats of Kent
and we assure our kind friend that
we welcome his news of the union OF
the Democratic party of Kent. A
good thing it would be indeed if the
leaders of the Kent county Democrats
would induce our distinguished friend
to come into Kent and inform them
upon what basis a united party was
formed. In case the leaders do not
call upon our friend as they should do
we will extend to our worthy and dis
tinguished friend, to run up in Kent
and impart the knowledge he alone
possesses to his benighted brethren
who are in utter darkness.

dwelling and store house which he
occupies on Main street to Mrs. Lydia
A. Cotton, now merchandising on Com
merce street, for the sum of $500,
possession to be given by the first Of
February. 1t is the purpose Of Mr..
Smith in selling his property to move
elsewhere, probably Philadelphia.
Mrs. Cotton before taking possession
will make some decided changes to
suit it TO her business and dwelling.
The partition that now divides the
store from the parlor is to be torn out
and the two rooms thrown into one
for her dry goods store. This will
involve several other changes to adapt
it to the family and dress making
rooms up stairs but when completed
as is expected in the early part Of Feb
ruary, viii give her a complete place

There is no doubt whatever but
that the best way to advertise is in

SENATORIAL POSTMASTER s.

DOVER oeuunel
Hartley has a new postmaster, ap-
pointed by Senator Higgins, who has
seen fit to ignore the wishes of the pa
irons of the Office and appoint a man
who but recently removed to the viii
lage, over the head of Mr.. E. R. Grant
who was endorsed not only by Repub-
licans but by Democrats as well. It is
not often that United States Senator
will thus stultify his public utterances
made before audiences in all parts OF
the State-that he would respect the
wishes of the people of the several
localities where offices were located.
and appoint to Office those whom the
said localities desired. But it is equally
rare that a United States Senator will
for weeks lay under the charge of hav-
ing Government employee from one
of the folding and pasting rooms at
Washington acting as his private Sec
retary. So that the people of Della
ware have as one Of their Senators not
only adouble accident but very rare
one.

Death of Mrs. Martindala.

Anna Hazard, wife Of the Rev.
Thomas E. Martindale, pastor of the
NJ. e. Church at Salisbury, Md, died
early Monday morning. She was the

PROGRESS IN CRIMINAL ESCAPES.

PROGRESS IN CRIMINAL ESCAPES.
Peninsular News.
This is indeed an age of progress.
Years ago criminals who escaped Jail
generally worked for many days to
that end, either in saving in two bars
with clasp knife, or in burrOwing,
rat-like, under the donjOhn keep.
Now things are done with much less
labor. A friend of those who sigh for
freedom furnishes keys like those of
the sheriff, and while that high official
is enjoying his Thanksgiving dinner,
the criminal lets himselfand his friends
outside where a carriage is in waiting.

A SAD MAN.
Morning News

morning News.
Judging from the report of our Do
yer correspondent. Sheriff Fennimore
is the saddest man in Kent county.
He feols that his confidence has been
misplaced and that Dill showed his
ingratitude by taking Bob Allen with
him. The sheriff should not be agi-
tated. Dill probably stepped out of
the Jail, as he did one night earlier in
the month, to make tracks in the mud
and took Allen with him for company
as it was dark aud lonely. The two
evidently became so interested in
tracks, that they kept on making
them until it was too late to return.
II the sheriff wishes to see Dill again
he should start out and follow all
twelve and One-half-inch footprints that
point toward Canada.

Running to the spot they found that
