DIR. BURTON \ CANDIDATE.
4 New Combination Forming to
Carry Delaware.

DIR. Hiram Il. Burton, of Lewes, is
now a candidate for United States
Senator for Delaware and an earnest
movement in his behalf has been in
augurated.
DIR. Burton was first mentioned by
an anonymous newspaper correspond
ent, and the suggestion was well re-
ceived, particularly in Sussex County.
There is an impression that in view of
a hostile public sentiment the Repub-
lican leaders there would be glad for
some way of escape from their obliga-
tions to Addicks, and as the election
of Higgins would prove simple treach-
cry to Addicks, the claims of Sussex
County to the Senatorship are being
urged as the best way out of the dilem-
ma. Sussex County has not had the
Senatorship since Willard Saulsbury's
term expired. in 1871, and both the
present Senators are residents Of the
city of Wilmington.
DIR. Burton has stated, in answer to
a direct inquiry, that while he was not
candidate for Senator, he would not
refuse the Office il the Legislature
elected him. He had an interview
with Senator Higgins this week, and
said that while he was still friendly to
Higgins, he saw no reason, in the
event that the Senator could not be
reelected, why he should not accept
the office if the Legislature saw fit to
bestow it upon him.
In Sussex County, the chances OF
DIR. Burton are regarded rs very
promising. There is enough in the
Burton boom to make both Addicks
and Higgins feel very uneasy about
their prospects.
