THE 0ERaIAA TOTE.
An Outlook OF the Campaign That Does
Not Please the Republicans.


Washington Star.
In private communication a promi.
nent German Republican takes rather
gloomy view of the Republicans reclaim,
ing the German vote. The situation in
Wisconsin. he says, is bad for the Repub-
ilcans III respect To the German vote, in
Illinois il is worse and in New York 1t
looks as if the Democrats had already cap
tured that vote. 1t has been published
that the leading Lutheran paper of Wis
consln, the GeImdRia, has come out for
the Republicans. This, he SAYS, is not
quite correct. The paper is not supporting
either party, but speaks pleasantly of
Spooner and says that it is satisfied that
the Republicans are honestly rcpentant of
their former course with relation to the
school question. 1t does not advise the
herman Llltherans to support the Rcpub-
lean ticket. but publicly disuvows any in
tentlon to give such advice. On the other
hand it has published several letters from
members of the Lutheran school commit
tee, in which the Republicans are severely
criticised. The same paper supports the
Democratic ticket in Illinois.
The informant quoted says that some of
the Germans i'll Wisconsin will go back to
the Republicans, but that it is difficult to
estimate how many will do so, and the
state is in doubt. In Illinois, he SAYS, it
looks as if the bulk of the Germans would
vote with the Democrats and in New York
the Democrats have practically captured
the German vote. lie is himself still a
Republican and deplores this condition of
affairs,

THERE WAS no NEGLECT.
Register Ferguson Indignant Over the
Story That the Biackbird Speakers
Were Neglected.


Register in Chancery Colen Ferguson
was very indignant in his office yesterday
over the statement of n morning paper
which inferred that the two Democratic
speakers, Messrs. Cooper and Ponder were
Intentionally neglected at the railway
station at Blackbird last digit.
The reason that It happened that there
was no oneto Get them at the train was all
through mistake FOR which the local peo-
pie were not to blame. The arrangement
was that they were to leave here by the
4.37 train, and at Middletown would be
met by L. r. Cochran, Jr, who wonld
drive them over to Blackbird. Instead of
that they left Wilmington by the 6.53 train
and stopped at Blackbird Had it been
known, or had it been necessary, there
would have lie N 80 good Democrats with
their carriages ready to meet the two
gentlemen.
Committeeman John Wilson made the
original arrangements and he and Mr..
Cochran regret very much the mistake
that occurred.
