Houston and Causey, carrying with
him all of his friends.
So successful have been the Efforts
in behalf of this arrangement tnat "
lis said that of all the prominent
Democratic leaders in Sussex only
one, DIR. Charles H. Richards, ,remains
to say "dama, and he refuses to de-
sert his friends for the forwarding

TnE Delawore0n is ameaiirg the
fact that the Democratic party has
abandoned its promisesand platform.
When did it ever do anything else F?
The nearest it ever came to being
consistent was when it took up arms
against the government 1t had al
ready sought to destroy. 1t has al
ways been a party without q policy
advocating measure before the
people and embodylng the reverse
in legislation. Does any one look
TO the present Congress for free sill
scr, free trade, OF the repeal of the
Federal election laws Cfcourse it
doesn't keep its promises,it wouldn't
lie consistent with its past history if
it did. It's only principle has been
20 deceive the people; it never takes
them into its confidence.

Hocus pocus Smith.

The responsibility for withhold
ing and discontinuing pensions has
been placed by the Department al
most invariably upon the Medical
Examining Boards. This is but a
near sublerfuge, concocted to de-
feat the law, and manifests the Con-
federate prejudice and hatred Of the
Union soldier. The truth is, that
many applicants, having disabilities
and reported as entitled to pensions,
Nhaye been turned down and rejected
Nv tie Department in spite Of the
clearest evidence Indicating the JUS
tee Of their claims. The government
is in the hands ofthose who sought to
destroy it-can its defenders look
for Justice under such conditions ?
The South brought on the Rebellion
and now repudiates and seeks to es-
C ,pe the slight obligations imposed
by the governmentin in return. 1.-THE
entire expenses Of The war had been
placed upon the seeding States,
" til the pension fund.- woFf have

Or complaining or acting surly.
IIocus-pocus Smith should stop his
rebel tricks and announce at once 10
tie pens 'oners that he is opposed TO
the enforcing Of the present pension
laws. That is the only honorable
thing to do-carry out the law or
resign and get out of the way, and
stop placing the responsibility ofhis
misdeeds upon somebody else.

The Schemes of the Houston-Cau-
sey- -Court-House Ring.


The appointment Of Frank Don
oyan, keeper Of the Bonded Ware.
house at Georgetown, is understood
to have been made in the interest of
the Houston Causey Court House
ring Of Sussex. Mr.. Donovan was a
Salisbury man and an applicant for
the post-ofliee, and this scheme re-
moves him and leaves the way clear
for J. L. Thompson, another Sauls-
bury man, to receive the appoint

Years teach more than
books or newspapers. This is
the seventeenth year OF this
business college where the
main business is to learn what
people want and get it for them
that they may take it as they
need, at the lowest cost.
TO anticipate and assemble
what people want is almost a
science, an altogether different
thing from massing lots of
merchandise to sell at a profit.
Our idea Of storekeeping is
the exact reverse of the old
one.
This house can never be a
good market for the poor mer.
chandise, whatever the tempta-
ton.
The largest fact in this sea-
sons announcement is that
lower prices have come.
This fact crops out all over
the store.
It is not so with every art
icle, but sufficiently SO to show
the trend. If you do not buy
your goods for less this Fall it
will be because you do not
