Why don't the workingmen subscribe
TO the Republican campaign fund Are
they not getting increased Mckinley
wages Are they ungrateful and unpa-
triotc too Carnegie has given
100000; Fricl has made the largest
subscription ever known What is the
matter with the worlSingmen; are they
not as loyal or as much interested as
Carnegie and Friek If Harrison is not
reelected and the Force bill and many
tariff bills put through, the industries Of
this country will be destroyed. Carnegie
viii retire to Scotland and Frick will sell
out. To prevent such calamities the
workingmen ought TO be liberal Ac-
cording to Jay Gould If wool coat costs
double the price it ought to cost, the
workingman can economize and wear one
coat two years-make it last as long as
two coats.

THE glass industry was started in this
country in 1888, It is an infant Of 254
years. But when Governor Mckinley
spoke here he held up glass tumbler
and attempted to induce the audience to
believe that it was the protective duty
increased by his guide TO prosperity
from 40 to 60 per cent which induced
the wise glass blowers TO blow that
drinking cup. If glass.making were
that sort Of an industry which is unproh-
table we do not want IT, II it is profitable
why add a bonus to its profits by pro
tectlng itY II protection does not in
crease the price Why was the protective
duty increased to go per cent. when we
have had the industry for 254 years2
Mind you Mckinley did not increase the
duty on the exquisite and beautiful glass
that we do not make but ON all the lower
grades of glass used only by the plain
people which we have been making for
many years. Such is the fraud, the
sham, the robbery Of the Republican pro
tective scheme.

WATSON IN HARNESS.
The District Attorney Takes Hand IN
Kent County Politics.


Kent County Politics.
United States District Attorney
Beniah Watson has, IL seems, been play
ing a high hand in the registration
affairs of East Dover hundred in Kent
county. He has been using his Office to
intimidate Democratic registrars
Colonel e. 7. Cooper, of Dover, was
in this city today. An EVENING JoUR-
NAL reporter asked him if be knew any
body who could give the particulars of
the district attorneys action
81 don't know anybody who knows
more about it than do, he said
"What did Watson do2" asked the re-
porter.
"He sat there in the place of registra-
tiOn as If he were an officer and made
objection after objection and demand
after demand. l told him that was
not there as register of wills; l was there
as ZelSe Cooper. That he was not there
as United States district attorney, but
as plain Ben Watson.
whenever things didn't 60 to suit
him he would take notes and say, AL
right; III have the marshal down here
81 told him to get the marshal down

Lecture by Rev. w. L. 5. Murray.

Rev. w. L. S. Murray, D. D., of Dover,
lectured at the Wilmington Commercial
college yesterday on "How Self Made
Men Succeed He said in part: "Suc-
cess is the cherished hope of all, and
especially of those who have commercial
aspirations. The self-made men Of
this and other cities have sought to find
out the way OF success by avoiding that
which has caused failure. Honesty
forms the pillars of the temple of com
merce If these are pulled down the
temple will fall. Honesty is the warp and
woof of the fabric the sun of the whole
system. It must be adhered to, not
simply because it is the best policy, but
because it is right and the only sound
policy. Self-made men have adhered to
honesty rigidly and to make themselves
competent they have used all possible
diligence aud thus avoided the failures
into which dishonest and incompetent
men have fallen.

Senator Higgins's Career as United
States District Attorney Recalled.
"This Higgins episode recalls to my
mind the wav in which the Senator
began his political career" said an old
citizen this morning.

The EVENING JOURNAL has received
unstinted commendation from its readers
for the interesting, accurate and humor-
Gus stories of the Higgins-Smith- -Wootten
bribery scandal An alert and energetic
reporter, than whom few are superior in
the newspaper world today, has spent his
entire time upon The story, and in conse-
quence, the people Of Delaware, regard
less Of either politics or sex, have had a
choice bit of reading matter, something
Wilmington people were strangers to
before the EVENING JOURNAL came into
existence. The dry, stereotyped style Of
writing an article, which has been dis
carded by all the enterprising metropol-
itan papers but which is still thrust
upon some Of the people of Wilmington,
will never be detected in the EVENING
JOURNAL. The energy. skill and success
with which this scandal was

THE case of Senator Higgins is settled
in his own confession by his own words.
He says that Major Wootten came to in
form him that che desired to change his
political connections and TO solicit Office
under the government. Is it not
strange that Senator Higgins should
have accepted a startling, radical change
in the political connections Of prom
nent man who might be useful" with
so little show of astonishment, so much
childlike credulity, without asking him
any reason for making the changer If
he were simply changing to procure an
Office, would not scrupulously
honest and fair man, like
Senator Higgins, have suspected his sin
cerity2 If, on the other hand Senator
Higgins did lot suspect Wootten and did
not question him, he must
have known that Wootten and the
Smithes had an agreement That is the
only point on which the affidavit Of
Wootten and the confession Of Senator
Higgins do not agree. The gap is filed
by Major Wootten. Higgins and the
Smithes leave an abysmal hiatus there
Wootten, who was never known to tell a
lie as his Republican neighbor,
Manson Waller, says; and being
as Senator Higgins says, "a man
Of influence and good standing
fills that hiatus very completely by
the charge that Smith offered him a posi-
tion under the government for obtaining
the position of voters assistant and
manipulating the ballots so as to
decrease the Democratic majority.
Senator Higgins does not ascribe any
reason for Wootten's change and de-
nies that there was any corrupt under
standing. but admits that he was willing
to assist Wootten TO get an office
Smith is a ''me too" tool Why wa.
Senator Higgins willing to favor this
Democrat with a positionl Are there

handled. not only brought out
the truth but put Higgins and
the two Smiths on the defensive
attacked each one separately, after the
famous tactics Of Frederick the Great,
and forced each one TO tell his own story
with the result that they are all three
disabled and lying in the hospital for re-
pairs. It was the greatest piece of re-
portorial work ever done in Delaware
and if it had not been for the courtesy Of
the EVENING JOURNAL, il would have
been an exclusive story.

WE should like to say for Major Woot-
ten that, with true Delaware gallantry,
he made a vigorous effort TO keep Mrs
Smith out of this Higgins Smith muddle,
but though a graceful, pretty and charm
ing little won an she is me Too Smith
who viii not be left out of anything.
She is in it as deep as Smith because she
will not take a hint or obey the Tony
wink She appears as the most voluble
liar Of the lot though Smith, and Tony
himself, contest the honors with her
vigorously. 1t is a precious lot by the
way and the fairy tales they would not
tell when they get into tight place are
only tales that are not worth tell
ing. In addition to her other
accomplishments Me Too Smith
is fighting mad. She proposes to slap
Ike Wootten's face. AS the reporter
suggested, that would not be dign fled,
in the first place; and, in the sec ond
place, If Me Too Smith were TO attempt
that, Ike Wootten might catch the
original Smith and wipe up the street
with him. We would suggest to the
charming little brunette TO allow George
and Tony the privilege Of attending to
any negotiations Of phi ysical nature
with Ike Wootten while she stands of
adding the requisite verbal pyrotechnics.
and holds herself ready TO take care of
the wounded when Major Wootten gets
tired But seriously we do not contem-
plate that there will be any fighting be-
cause Tony has to attend Thompson's 5
funeral and get his lunch He always
does those things first and takes his
recreation afterwards.

THE first time in the history of this
proud little commonwealth when one Of
her senators has ever been treated with
disrespect was on Saturday night, when
the crowd hooted and ieered Anthony
Higgins at Fourth and Monroe streets.
He has the unenviable distinctions Of
being first in several respects and
because he is the first against whom such
an affidavit as that of Major Wootten
was published he is the first whom the
people shout at in derision, interrupt
with contemptuous gibes and finally
make him stop speaking They called
out "How about Laurel p "Have you
had your lunch g' Have you been to
Thompson's funeral % "Are you going
to resign 2" Till man with less con.
centrated gall would have been desper-
ate. We do not approve of any
discourtesy to Senator Higgins,
though we do not approve of him.
Those who went to that meeting shou Id
have refrained from an exhibition Of the
contempt they may very properly feel,
and which they really ought to feel for
the unblushing impudence OF the man who
drags the high Office of Delawares SEN
atorship through the political filth of
Higginsism. We would not advise that
he be treated discourteously, but we
would advise the respectable Republicans
to suggest that Senator Higgins should
not make himself any more conspicuous
than is absolutely necessary, in the re-
mainder Of this campaign. The incensed
people might throw eggs next time.
People are very unreasonable sometimes,
and more emphatic than courteous in the
exhibition of their contempt for man
who outrages all sense of decency.
