The Delawarean condemns the con.
test going on in the United States Sen
ate and says it is the duty OF the
Democratic Senators to stop it, not
because it Is inJuring the business OF
the country, but because it Is dividing
and destroying the Democratic party.
It condemns the men who decline 10
make some compromise, and says
that "the Senators are going too far
in their advocacy OF measure that
was never endorsed by any body Of
Democrats who had authority to speak
for the party" While In favor of lib
eral legislation in regard to the cIrcu
iatlon of silver, 1t calls on the Demo.
cratic Senators to carry out the Demo
cratic platform and repeal the Sher'
man silver bill, which it asserts every
honest man admits means the estab.
lishment OF the gold standard"
Itseems singular after making such
an assertion and denouhcinE the Sem
tors who favor repeal as working
to promote the interests OF Gould and
other millionalres, which they have
neither the courage or candor to ad
nit, but with Jesuitical hIpocrley pro
