Many Democrats seem disposed to
oppose the adoption of the new Con-

reason than the fact that the Re-
publican Convention Endorsed it. 1t
was framed by a convention COM
posed chiefly of Democrats, and it
seems to us not only simple but
idiotic to say it is not a good thing
because Republicans like it. Our
experience is that they like good
things as well as other people. No
doubt many oppose the Constitution
because the CD. does. Well now

Democrats are and should be proud

cap this great State with the

How to- get "A Handsome
Husband.

"When'er some lucky Indian maiden
Found a red ear in the husking,
'Muskap cried they altogether:
'Muskap you shall have sweetheart
You shall have a handsome hus-
band"
The handsome man always admires
the beautiful woman. Then simply
make yourself beautiful. Remove
all blotches, pimples, 'forked signs
of turkey tracks" from your features,
by the use Of DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, a tonic to the nervous
circulatory and provocative Systems.
Its use brings roses to the cheeks,
and sparkle to the eyes. Take it,
and you will, like the indian, find a
"red earl in good health, an omen
of future happiness Guaranteed to
give satisfaction in every case, or
money paid for it refunded.

In recent work on Heart Disease,
DR.. Franklin Miles-the noted spe-

facts. Thousands of people are slow

their hearts by the use of tea, coffee,
tobacco and alcohol. These are
t!eart Whips, causing it to beat rap
idly, thus gradually wearing it out,
producing shortness of breath when
exercising, pains in the side and
shoulder, hungry and faint spells.
Finally heart failure and sudden

The reporter having expressed his
Willingness I'd hehf the joke, the gem
tlepRtl proceeded:
You see Il happened some years
ago, Just above here, in q neighboring
county. It was In sieighing. time and
there was deep snow on the ground.
A great many parties were held which
the people all around attended. Even
women with their babies got so inter
ested In the parties that they would
bundle them up and take them along
TO the dance. There they would hand
them over to the nurse employed for
the occasion while they tripped it on
the light fantastic.
Finally the babies began to get colds
and got sick and the neighboring doc
tor had more than he could attend to,
He demonstrated with the mothers, but
all to no avail, they would go to the
parties. Finally the doctor attended
one of the parties upon pretence OF
seeing the sick babies. He there got
the nurse to exchange the clothing Of
the babies, mixing up the boys and
girls and then left to await the fun.
The mothers when they left for home
got the right baby's clothes but got
the wrong baby. There was scene
next morning, and hurried sleigh rides
over the country wherever n baby
could be found, to get things righted.
Attending parties with babies in that

Nathaniel Williams has come so very
near drafting an acceptable Three
County Commissioner bill for the gov
eminent of New Castle County, that he
might as well go little farther and
make il right We do not pretend to
say that Mr.. Williams is not doing
what he conceiyes To be tho best for
the county In his bill but we rather
suspect that under the present cir
cumstances and under such state of
divided feeling he has drafted his bill
to meet the present exigency and not
TO be SO radical In its operations rs he
Five County Commissioner bill. So
far as this goes Mr.. Williams bill is to
be preferred, but when this is said, il
must also be said that it falls short OF
the mark of exact justice to all Mr.
Mr.. Williams might as well go little
father and bring his bill up at once tC
meet the full idea of popular govern
ment by the people.
We mean, exactly, that his bill shouIl
let the present Levy Court alone unit
the first OF January, 1898, and ALLOW
the three commissioners provided fol
to be elected at the November election
in 1892, and take theirseats then. Nh
Williams bill permits the newly-electeC
Levy Court of New Castle county I,
take their seats and to serve two
months. II permitted to serve two
months, why not serve until the mex
election? During the two months tina
they will serve they will prepare the
assessment duplicates, and will ap
point all the officers including the tn,
collectors coming under their iurisdic
ton, though the latter, of course, will
not have entered upon their duties
Why should these all be wiped out b,
an arbitrary measure of the Legisla
ture2
But there are broader grounds tina
can be urged for letting the Lev
Court perform It's functions until 1885,
and the broadcast of all grounds is tina
the people elected it for two years, a

tor. In the House, w. A. PETER, ALL
ance. received 06 votes Ingalls, Is. and
Blair 8. In the Senate, Ingalls, had 3B,
PETER 2 and there were three scatter
ing. Previous to the balloting the
Senate requested the HOUSE to return,
for further consideration the con-
current resolution TO go into joint ses-
sion to-day, but some trickery being
suspected, the request was refused.
Judge PETER, who was nominated by
the Alliance caucus on, Monday night,
and who will be elected should the
Senate meet the House in joint session
to-day, is thus described:
PETER Is 90 years Of age, six feet
tall, as slim as Ingalls,, with q deep
gutteral, though pleasing voice, and
slow and deliberate in speech. Up to
a year ago he was staunch Republi-
can. He fayors unlimited coinage Of
silver and conservative expansion of
the currency, moderate protection Of
home industries, but does not believe
In protection as q principle. He favors
the Government loaning money at 2 a
per cent"

500 on the Levy Court branch Of the
ticket. The voice Of the people should
be supreme In this matter II not, why
hold elections at all? Why not change
the State government to an autocracy
at once and let it be governed by ap-
pointments by the Governor The
county having got along for more
than hundred years under the Levy
Court system, can get along two years
more without the accumulation of
greater injuries and burthens.
Let Mr.. Williams Just change his bill
a little, let the people have their way
until next election, and then the COM
missioner law will go smoothly into
effect; nobody will be injured, and the
rights OF the people will have been re-
spected.

VIM. II. LEE could not fill his post
as Secretary of the Board OF Health
last night on account of pressing bust
ness at Dover. He is one OF tho active
lobbyists in the attempt TO force the
Five County Commissioner bill through
the Legislature. He belongs to the
trio of county reformers, Neary, Lee
Weir, either of whom wants to be the
comptroller under that bill. Under
the power conferred by that bill upon
the comptroller, Lee would be in his
glory were he to obtain that office.
The $4,000 salary provided in the bill,
according to his peculiar methods OF
getting money, would be mere baga-
telle.
With S250,000 Of the county's money
to control and with the great army of
county contractors and officials at his
beck and nod, he would soon be q
millionaire. Let the members of the
Legislature pay particular attention
to the advice and counsels of County
Rcformer William H. Lee. He comes
to them bubbling over with zeal fol
real solid, honest county reform, in
deed he does, but oh, how he would
like to be county comptroller under
the Five County Commissioner bill
But he is not comptroller yet. neither
is the Five County Commissioner bill
a law yet, though it may have passed

AND who drafted the Five County
Commissioner bill? We are informed
now that ex-City Solicitor Henry G.
Turner, ex-Representative George
Lodge and Frank D. Carpenter, Esq,
compose the trinity that materialized
it and ushered it into being. These
are all very respectable gentlemen,
active members Of the New Castle
County bar, and have the mental ability
to evolve weighty matters OF leglsla-
ton from their legal minds, but we
would ask in all candor II they can be
compared with the fathers of the con-
stitution Of Delaware who evolved the
Levy Court system of county govern
ment when Delaware was in its swad-
ding clothes? Should such an import
ant bill that changes the whole system
OF the government of county be
rushed through the Legislature with a
week or eight days snap Judgment
notice, that required the great-grand-
fathers OF the Bayards, the Rodneys,
the Claytons, the Reads and the Rid
dies Of the early history of the State
weeks and months of anxious thought
to formulate? A change is needed,
nobody denies that, and let this pres
ent Legislature provide for that
change, but not in such partisan haste
as has been proposed by the friends of
