purpose by the advice and appea, Of his

times aud he desired to be rid Of the bur

National Committee which are much
larger In the Intervals Of campaign

The proposition that Quay was
anxious to retire and was overwhelmed
with the pathetic pleadings Of his com

humorous, but the unique phIaseoloey Of
prospective chairman heightens the effect.

DELAWARE CITY, July 23,-Consider-
able excitement prevailed here yesterday,
over the arrest Of two youths. who had
driven here on Monday afternoon and
registered at the Delaware City Hotel as
"Chas and Benjamin Lance, of Will
mington. They drove fine young bay
mare, to a well worn, falling top buggy.
They professed to have come here for a
| few days sport at fishing and engaged
rooms at the hotel On Tuesday the
horse they had driven was suffering in
terrible agony and DR., Vail Of this city
was called in attendance and pronounced
the case that Of founder.
BE assured the boys, however that the
mare could be cured, and in few days
would be able to drive again Notwith-
standing this, the boys seemed very un-
easy, and offered to sell the entire team
very cheap. This aroused suspicious,
which were confirmed later in the day by
a telegram from Detective Finn of West
Chester, inquiring for a stolen team.
The boys were Immediately arrested
and placed in the lookup here to await
the arrival of the West Chester detective,
who came on the As m train. The
two boys were recognized by him. The

If the object of this meaningless-not

was to place Quay in the attitude of a

Colonel Doak, Henry Watterson again
defines his position in reference to the

his remarks in another column Whether
one agrees with the conclusions Of Doak
or Watterson one must concede that they
both know what they are talking about.
No man in the United States is
nearer In touch with Democrats
West and South than WRtterson He
travels more and sees clearer than ordi.
nary men who have not his opportuni-
ties. He is Democrat from principle
aud not for the hope of efiice.
He has no axes to grind, he
is uuselfsh, open hearted, outspoken.
keen witted and fearless He may not
know what the tricky politicians OF New
York are concocling and he does not
care. He knows what the people of
the West and South, the
Democrats think and fesl. and he knows
that it is better TO be right than be Presi-
dent, and that theDemocratic party would
not advance the cause Of Democracy
by having Hill In the Presidential chair.
It would advance the course of Hill and
Hills hackers, that's all.
