exacting clients. But he slumped
there.
AS newspaper man, he had still
better chance. But being older, and not
wiser; more callous to public opinion,
or less sensitive to the calls of duty, and
the sweet alluremsnts of fame, he was
jostled from one paper to another till he
dropped with the plunk of a dead weight
into the various positions he occupies
now, at the mercy of Senator Higgins.
We have heard he is not performing
the duties Of them We are informed
that Senator Higgins mails seeds, sends
out speeches and patent-ofice reports,
writes his own speeches and actually
negotiates those deals in Little Creek
hundred by which this state is to be
convinced that Republicanism is pure
in intention and holy in practice.
We have stated this case at length,
because Fred + Bach is the legitimate
result Of the energy Of the Republican
party in Delaware and a type of his
class. He represents what Republican
ism means here he is au object-lesson
Of its ignoble ends and its debasing
efforts to attain them.
Now, in addition to having passed ten
or twelve years in trifing attempts to be
four things and failing to be anything,
Mr. Bach has become a leader in practical
politics Of the sort that does not recon-
mend him as a man or as a citizen We
mean a great deal more than we need TO
say to those who are familiar with the
part Bach has taken in the Mckee and
Dougherty purchase; the acceptance of
money for writing Hickman editorials, in
the debauchery. of the negro voter, and
in Issuing various cir. ulars and letters
to which no man, who valued his repu
tation, should have put his name.
The fact is that Mr. Bach is not
