THE news comes from Washington
that the Republicans are making an

THE Seaford Review boldly declared
that the officers OF this state were taken
from the "sums Of Wilmington. The
Review poses as conspicuous reformer
full OF precise and particular information
concerning the slums Of Wilmington, .
hence we mildly requested 1t to mention
few names Of the Summers" in order
that we might all take whack at them.
This is the manner in which the calm
and logical advocate for new constitu-
tion gives the names Of the officers.
If the editor of the EVENING JOURNAL
could only lay aside partisan views for a
short time and looks around among those
who fill the public offices in Wilmington

Wilmington, he would not have to ask

PHILADELPHIA, Monday, Feb. 10. 1890.
1Ae a0eathey today as hkely
be clondy and colder.
Too nznck for rs

Too nsAch for rs.
Our policy for this month is
to bring forward with all posi-
bic rapidity the new things
for spring. We hoped that
we might tell you something
each day of all the novelties
for dress, or of the new things
for personal or for domestic
uses as they came along. But
the task is too great. The
hundreds of cases from beyond
the sea and from American
manufacturers contains too
many things of too many sorts
to be told of in full detail.
On Saturday we gave some
details Of Lupin's new Dress
Goods, but the half was not
told, nor the quarter. You
will have to seek the Black
Goods counters for Blacks, the
Cream Goods counter for the
Creams, and the Novelty coun-
ter for all other colorings.
In the aisle opposite the
Novelty Dress counter you
will find many new things in
fine wool and worsted diago-
nails. Their special feature is
the extremely beautiful and
delicate ground coloring, in
elegant contrast with large
stripes and plaids and stylish
borders. Some of the latter
in Knickerbocker effects are
very stylish. Description is
absolutely useless.
But our broad and deep
statement, often made, and as
often family echoed in almost
our own words, that without
exception the unequaled Dress
Goods Stock of the World is
here, is applied to the variety
of Dress Goods, here and com
ing, for this Spring.
The great varieties already
at your service prove this.
Saint Valentines day comes
just before Spring-the time
in which the young mans
mind eighty turns to thoughts
of Love-" AS usual our pre-
parations are great. 1t will
pay you to choose early. More
Valentine for less money than
ever before.
Card Valentines:
New designs ofsthe finest lithographic art
work Of Europe and America, from 2
cents up to 35 cents each
Card Valentines-mounted:
A variety Of handsome card, mounted
on torchon board, with Easel back
Lace Valentines:
Made on the old-fashioned plan, but Of
much inner Workmanship, range in
price like this: 2, 3. 5, z. 10, Is, 25, 80, and
40 cents each, with an envelope.
Booklet Valentines:

especially attractive:

tine.N colored, 10 cents

How the Immigrant Helped. L.

Judge John =. Ailgeld In the Feb
ruary Forum: But for the assist
ance OF the immigrant the election
Of Abraham Lincoln would have
been an impossibiIity, and had the
cry, America for Americans" pre-
vailed in an earlier period Of our
history, the nineteenth century
would never have been the great free
Republic we see, and the shadow Of
millions Of slaves would to-day
darken and curse the continent.
The total population Of the states
In 1860, was 81, 1888, ,744, Of whom
1000, 1852 were foreign-born, and the
latter only 2l5, 730 were to be found
In all the eleven states which re-
ceded. The remaining states had a
total population Of 22,3l3007, OF
whom 1852, ,425, or q little over
one-sixth were actually forelgn-born.
In every state carried by Lincoln
there was large foreign population,
which was mostly, and In some
states entirely, republican, aud
which continued to be republican
down TO very recent date; and II
the vote OF this class had been omit
ted In 1860, II would have reduced
llncoln's TO such an extent as TO
defeat him In most Of the states
which he carried.
IL Is All indisputable fact that the
vote of the naturalized citizen aud Of
his son, has been most powerful
and indispensable factor In giving
the republican party the control Of
the government; aud even to-day its
power and popularity are greatest
In those states In which there is n
large naturallzed vote

holsted the flag Of secession, had "A
