"WEDNESDAY. MARCH se. 1893.


At last the Chief Justiceship Is set.
tied and we believe to the satisfaction
OF all. The choice had narrowed to
Mr.. Lore a Democrat and Mr.. Spruanoe
Republican. Those in favor of Mr..
spruance had no particular objections
to Mr.. Lore. and the well thinking
part OF those in favor of Mr.. Lore had
no objections to Mr.. Spruance. Thus
the matter stood when 1t was present
ell to Gov Reynolds, who Is De mo.
crat of the Bourbon wing OF the par.
ty. He did not like Mr.. Lore, though
a Democrat, because he was not allied
to the wing Of the party to which he
belonged, and had 1t not been for the
preponderance of public opinion in
favor Of Mr.. Lore, that gentlem an
would never have been appointed.
Mr.. Spruanee being a Republican
was bar to his appointment from the
the start and 1t was only because Mr..
Bayard and few more Democrats OF
the dominant Bourbon wing favored
MIR. Spruance. that gave hun any ex-
pectancy whatever that he might re-.
ceiye the appointment. But Democ-
racy even of the Salisbury eide of the
Democratic House prevailed with the
Governor over the conservative
Republicanism OF Mr.. Spruance.
The judiciary by this appointment Is
made solidly Democratic, and this is
called non-partisanship by that party.
However. Mr.. Lore is a well. known
citizen Of splendid legal attainments
and rare ability, with mind that Pc
culiarly fits him for the office to which
he has been appointed. 1t is too true
that Mr.. Lore was ever ready ct the
call and beck Of Mr.. Bayard to come
forward and defend every unprincl.
pied political act of which tho Demo-
Gratis had been charged. But
this he had to do to preserve his stand
ing In his party.
Now that he is Chief Justice OF the
State, there will be no necessity for
these exhibitions OF his feallty to his
party. He Is already on the shady side
OF life, and though his appointment is
for life. he has no political future to
mako for himself. He can remain a
Democrat etill, but as Chief Justice of
Delaware, he can be u non partisan
Judge the remainder of his years.
This we believe he will be. He can
gain nothing by being anything else,
but the glory Of his declining years
can be enhanced and made more bril-.
liant still by the exercise OF an en-.
llghtened mind and In tho justice OF
the decisions he may DO called upon
TO make.
Probably no man could have been
appointed that will receive more
hearty congratulations than Mr.. Lore.
He was always general fsvorite will
the people, and had it not been FOL
perjury and treachery by some still
living and come dead OF his own party
he might at this time hive been filling
tbs position at Washington that the
Hon.Geo. Gray is snow filing. A mongst
the masses that are crowdlng forward
to congratulate Chief Justice Lore, the
Republican Is found extending Its
congratulations also.
