rARnED wIrH THE SAME STICK
Are Dougherty, Mckee. Mahany, Bach
and Stewart.


Dover Index.
Dougherty, Mckee, Mahaffy, Bach
and Stewart all occupy the same level
morally. Of two parties to corrupt
and shameful deal il is hard to tell
which is the worst The buyer IL the
circumstances were reversed would be
just as apt to sell as the one who did
sell. What is the difference in buying
another to do wrong and that other sell
ing himself to do wrongg The only adj
vantage which MahafTy, Bach and
Stewart have over Dougherty and
Mckee is that the former have peached
on the latter and got on the witness
stand, and are now poseing as witnesses
against the wrong doors stimulated by
their seductive brides.
But while all this is going on Senator
Higgins was standing by in blissful in
nocence and Ignorance ~. Does the
noble senator see anything green in the
public eye?
Bach was very proper man to help
consummatc this foul plot. His expert
ence in selling out himself was valuable
TO him in his purchase of Dougherty
and McKee,
1t is our opinion that the parties to
this disreputable affair are all tarred
with the same stick. Let the invcstiga-
ton go on. The public will soon find
out something about the gang that are
running the Republican machine of
Wilmington and also how New Castle
county was carried BY the Republicans
last November.
