THE contest for the Shrievaly nomi-
nation indicates that the party is alive
and means business. Unless it
was confident of the victory there never
would have been such a contest.
While few may be disappointed that
their candidate was not successful, yet
the election is six months off and by
that time every one will come in under
the old flag and march to victory. The
indications are that hundreds of men
who never took an interest in politics
will do what they can this election to
bring about Republican success. Even
decent Democrats are disgusted with
the high handed manner in which the
Democrats have been manipulating
things in this State. The disgust of
course extends to the imbecile manner
in which national affairs have been
carried on under the present admins
tration, with the result that hundret 8
of voters here will yote-as they never
have done before-the Republican
ticket.

A very amusing incident, at least
very amusing in face of the facts, oc-
CURED at the reception given by the
by Young Mems Democratic Club on
Monday night week. Prof. Rhoads
once Mayor of Wilmington sang
song entitled "Sweet Baby Lips are
Pleading for Bread" 1t would be
hard to imagine the feelings of our
Democratic friends as they listened to
the words of the song and then re-
membered that they had played part
in bringing about the times which are
SO strongly portrayed in the song. 1t
was certainly very peculiar to say the
least, to sing such song at aDemo-
cratic pow-wow. The song is as fol-
lows:
With halt frozen hands ana his head bent
low,
With shoes barely covering his hurrying
feet.
Shriv'ring in winds that so cruelty blow,
Hunting for work in a cold city street,
Surrounded by plenty, yet hungry and weak
All of the sunshine gone out ofhis lite.
With eyes full OF tears, heart too full to
speak:
When he thinks OF his children and wife. .
Chorus:
Out in the street, the story repeat,
Looking for work in the rain and the
sleet.
Durdened with care, he seeks everywhere,
Ever pursuing his suit In despair,
He struggles along in the biting wind,
And passes by happy homes gay and bright
VainIy he seeks work he cannot find
Ere the return of another night
He thinks OF the dcaI ones Ut home with
dread,
Waiting his coming in shadows so deep
And sweet baby lips are crying for bread.
While they sob themselves hungry to sleep,

The appointment of John F. DALEY
Justice of the peace to succeed James
Monaghan was another play on the
political chess board by the Dicky and
Neary combination. 1t was done to
appease Peter j. Ford and Senator
John Pyle whose influence Neary and
Dickey need at the coming primaries
and for this reason such men Frank
Z. Smith and other tried Democrats
are laid on the shelf.

GUS advocates of the candidates at the
last Saturdays election are carrying
their zeal too far 10y the continued
TRADES at each other through the Dem
ocratic press. 1t is uncalled for and
will work harm. The battle is over
and won and that is all there is of it.
The defeated candidates and their
friends should fall in line, and we
know they will The party must not
be torn by these quarrels-they are un-
necessary and hurtful in their tenden-

will prove useless for we do not propose
to have one. The election is good
way off and the wounds will heal
by that time. Let us have
unity, harmony. No, our Democratic

in the Republican ranks. They are
too much bent on victory, which is with

THE letter which We print below
from one of the leading Republicans OF
this town expresses our sentiments.
The Democratic papers of this State
can say nothing too hard about Senator
Higgins. Abuse is their regular stock
in trade. Tie stuff the Erery Evening
published last week about Senator
Higgins speech on the Hawaiian ques-
tion was evidently from the pen OF one
who, OH general principles, sought to
criticise The effort, not producing one
single argument to sustain his string
of slurs, but just because the Senator
saw fit to take directly opposite po-
stion to the great Grover. The letter
is as follows:
Editor Euery Evening: notice you
say in your Washington correspondence
in your paper of April 9th, that Sena-
tor Higgins occupied three hours in
ssreeling off a lot of most dreary and
stupid rubbish" &C., and also in your
paper of that date that Senators Hig-
gins and Gray were pitted against each
other in the case of Charles Richard
son VS. Walton and Buckle.
Do you think ''stupid man would
be retained as an attorney in an impor-
tant case like this and win it, too?
cannot see for the life Of me why you
say these things. There is no politics
in it for Democrats and the best men
in that party do not like it. | am
regular taker of your paper and these
things are distasteful. This is not sale
of Gray and you know it is not true Of
Mr.. Higgins.

THE nomination of Paul Glllis for
she riff and Emmitt Stidham for coro-
ner starts the Republican ticket off
with two strong men. We know COM
paratively little Of Mr.. Stidham but
from all reports he is most worthy
and capable man. AS for Paul Gillis,
we do know Linn, and know him to be
qualified in every respect fer the office
which he aspires to fill. He is an hon
est and capable man and credit to the
ticket. Those who know him best,
those who are his neighbors attest, in
the strongest terms, to his merits.
Probably no man ever had a greater
compliment paid him than did Mr..
Gillis by the people Of his own hundred,
where, out of pole Of nearly 600 votes
he received them all with the exception
of less than dozen. His leading COM
petitors, Messrs. Rettew and Finn
were both strong men and were formid-
able rivals; hence his nomination over
them is a great compliment. Mr..
Gillis will make strong candidate.

WILL the agony never cease over
the Post Office appointment? 1t is
beginning to tell on the candidates.
The trips of two leading politicians of
this town to Washington have not as
yet been able to hurry up the appoint
ment. Senator Gray is taking his own
sweet time and seems perfectly obliv-
ious to the heart burning and sleepless
nights of the faithful. The man who
is profiting most by the delay is the
present Postmaster and he of course
is not objecting.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, May I'd, 1894
Senator Hale very cleve1ly smoked the
Democrats out and compelled Senator
Harris, of Tennessee, who is in charge
of the Democratic side of the Senate,
to acknowledge that he and the rest of
the Democrats, except those who are
dickering with the Democratic ''kick-
ers," were ignorant of what concession
had been or would be made, but were
prepared to go it blind on the recon-
structed tariff bill, whether it agreed
with their sentiments or not. Was not
that remarkable confession to be
made by the whilom leader of the
majority side of the Senate? Com
menting on the statement published
that the Democratic leaders were be-
coming more cheerful over the outlook,
Mr.. Hale said: Cheerful, Mr.. Presi-
dent, cheerful when bargaining and
selling is going on instead of honest
tariff legislation. Cheerful when jug
glery and skullduggery take the place
of open discussion, cheerful when it is
the cheerfulness of dying man, when
decomposition has already set in and
numbed his faculties?
No description could possibly do JUS
tice to the present disgraceful attitude
Of the Democratic Senators. They
have refused to grant hearings to hon
est working men and women who have
come here to protest against the bread
being taken from their mouths by
vicious legislation, and they are to-day
on their knees, not granting hearings,
but taking and obeying absolututely
without question the orders of the
millionaire trusts, as to changes to be
made in the tariff bill. Mr.. Cleveland
and Secretary Carlisle are up to their
necks iu this filth, while tho-e Demo
cratic Senators who are always ready
10 obey the crack Of the party whip are
being kept in ignorance Of what is
going on; they have only to be told
that bill is party measure to support
it, no matter what its nature may be.
surely the workingmen will have long
score tn settle with the Democratic
party.
Some DemOcrat-dOubtles an appli-
cant for his office-started story that
Gen. James A. Dumont, who has for
many years been chief government
inspector of steamboats,, was contem-
plating retirement becaused of feeble
ness caused 10y old age. 1t was a cruel
lie. Gen. Dumont in denying it said:
II am just as lively and energetic as /
was twenty years ago. There is only
one thing the matter with Gen. Du-
mont. He is Republican.
senator Quay'S friends are uneasy
about his condition. His health has
not been good for year or two, but it
was not until recently that he began to
show signs of permanent break down.
His absence just at this time is very
much felt by his Republican colleagues
in the Senate, aside from the feeling of
esteem for him which makes his absence
at any time matter of general regret.

THE PARTY Is SOLID.

The Democratic congressional con-
ventiOn of the Third district. held at
South st. Paul yesterday, did its duty
honorably and without a word of dis
sension. Hon. o. Nj. Hall was renomi-
mated by reclamation and with an en-
thusiasm which told more eloquently
than words how much his past services
were appreciated. The convention was
called to order by Chairman Child, of the
district committee, and pending the re-
port of the committees Gen. Becker, the
Democratic candidate for governor,
u.ade rousing speech that told much of
the earnestness with which he is enlist
ed in this campaign. Perfect harmony
prevailed throughout the proceedings.

the district solidly backed by his party
and with a record which is an honor,
both to him and to the tate.-FariDault

WASHINGTON. Oct. 4.-Thad Sharrett.
member of the New York board of
general customs appraisers, was at the
treasury department today in confer
ence with Assistant Secretary Hamlin
regarding several important questions
connected with the administration of
he new tariff act. One question under
discussion was whether the entire
wooden schedule of the new act, which
includes camel hair, ETC., goes into effect
Jan. l, 1895. or only those parts which
relate to articles of which the com.
ponent of chief value Is wool. The
board of appraisers have decided that
the entire schedule goes into operation
Jan. next, but whether the depart
ment will adopt that ruling and so In.
struct collectors has not as yet been
decided. Another question of great
importance discussed was what should
constitute the value for duty purposes
OF beet sugar imported from Germany.
The local appraiser ut New York de-
clded that the value for duty purposes
should be the local market value added
to the bonus paid by Germany ON the
beet sugar imported from Germany, and
would likely greatly reduce the impor-
tatiOnS.
