VIII you allow mo space to give the
history of tho political euicide Of
Willard saulsbury. . gentleman and
lawyer for whom did and do enter.
tain the greatest respect, q lawyer Of
more than ordinary ability, and with
true American gentleman, and who
did hope to see occupying the seat IN
the q. s. Senate. 30 honorably filled
by hts iliustrioue ancestors, but he
failed to take the tide at flood and has
missed the golden opportunity. He
fell q victim OF the ring and machine.
No name chances wore brighter after
Higgins In the Senate than him, In
case Of Democratic victory In ~. but
alas the machine ring ''hypnotized"
him and drew him away from his
friends and into the camp OF those
who have for many years been enemies
,,of his family In the Democratic party.
Perhaps he did not know the nature
and history OF the doubled headed ring
,as well as some Of US close observers
and victims OF the ring. / Will now
explain to you something about this
monster, whose hypno-
tic Influence caused Willard to commit
political suicide and how 1t was done.
The ring IL composed of,two elements,
namely: The silk stocking and kid
glove elements, who aspire to be re-
'cipients Of National blessings, under
Senatorial leadership. and tho old Levy
Court and aimshouse ring. under tile
Leadership OF Dickey, Neary, Callahan
~ Co., who aspire 70 county and State
pleasing. and by owning the Legiela-
ture and Governor always manage to
get 1t.
The balance OF us are considered az
the overall crowd. or voting cattle.
who have no rights only to pay tax
and vote for the ring, and hurrah In
the campaign Of ninety-two. when all
was dark and doubtful for Democracy
In this State. Extreme measures had
to be resorted to, and that was for the
ring to keep in the dark, so the cam
IpaiGn was placed in the keeping OF the
overall crowd" and Willard as lead
Ter, and wo won the victory by q
slim majotity. and the next day the
the ring and the ring henchmen, and
they not only hypnotized Senator
Pyle and Representative spruance. but
also our leader, Willard, although he
was shrewd, keen lawyer, and In his
serving the ring he lost the confidence
of his overall following.
II he had remained with us. Eve
hnpW no 10 huoltiou6 10 suce66u bouH-
tor Higgins, we could have forced the
Of Legislative ticket fav-
|orable to him. and with the prestige he
has In tile lower counties, he could
have been elected to the Senate In
case OF Democratic victory. Every
meeting the ring held In his office was
Ia nail in his political coffin. will now
show you where he stands. in case OF
Democratic victory, which is highly
improbable. The silk stocking and
kid glove element have already slated
for The Senate Mr.. Causey, and the
old Levy Court and aimshouse ele-
|ment have pledged 1t to Reynolds,
and any man with an ounce of brains
Knows that after his term expires as
governor. he will only be known In
history, and 1t should be written on
lice and placed in July sun to dry,
I'm case OF Democratic Victory. Willard
will have the pleasure Of seeing Mr..
Causey occupy the position he should
have.
But he can comfort himself by say
ing "Hypnotism" did It, but no Demo-
crat will lose any sleep over the
as Republican LegIsla-
ture and Republican Governor Is the
only means OF breaking the ring. At
least two thousand Democrats have
made UP their minds already to use
heroic means. We have had to let the
party be defeated here three times to
break the ring. and then they retreated
to Dover, but now their headquarters
will be captured. as there is already
too many. DIs0UsTED DEMOCRATS.
