THE U. s. sENATORsHIP.

The fact that United States Sena-
tor was to be elected by the next Della
ware legislature has not for one in
slant been lost sight of by the Re
publicans of the state. The men who
were elected to the State legislature on
the Republican ticket are men of good
sense, sound judgement and spotless
integrity. Men upon whom the party
and the State can safely rely; men
who are above suspicion; and it is
fragrant insult for any man or men, of
any party to dare to say that there is
one of them who would sell his vote to
elect a United States Senator whose
sole recommendation is the size of
his money pile.
There are nowhere under heaven
more loyal, upright, intelligent, honest
men than are found in the rank and
file of the Republican party of Della
ware and the party leaders are the peers
of the nations best.
While there is no lack of Senatorial
timber of the first water in the party,
Mr.. Higgins is the logical candidate. He
stands for the best thought, the best
heart, the best Drawn and brain of Della
ware. The party owes its vigorous life
to-day to him, and when the new legis-
lature assemblies at Dover next January
he will be nominated on the first
ballot.
We desire also to respectfully re-
mind our esteemed contempory the
EVERY Evening"" that, God willing,
the Republicans will govern Delaware
for the next four years at least. They
are eminently capable of choosing their
Senator, and they will do it, and he
will be the peer Of any man that ever
stood on the Senate floors.
The Republicans do not want or
need any advice or pharisaical meddling
on the part of Democrats. The re-
putation and honor of the State is as
dear to them as it can be to any Demo-
crat living, and they will guard well
their sacred trust.

The report that the administration is
about to issue another lot of bonds
some say $50, 100000 and others $780,
100000 finds many believers, notwith-
standing Secretary Carlisle's positive
denial. There are two reasons for
this. First, the report originated with
friends of Mr.. Cleveland, and was ac-
companied hy the statement that Mr..
Carlisle was opposed to another issue
Of bonds without Congressional action
authorizing it and that Mr.. Cleveland
had taken the matter into his own
hands, believing that the necessity for
Strengthening the gold reserve was
urgent and that Congress would not
authorize it if it were left to decide
the matter; and second, the known
need of the Treasury for more money,
owing to the failure Of the new tariff
to produce the amount of revenue that
was anticipated. Whatever the ad-
ministration may or may not do before
Congress assemblies, the bond question
is likely to be live one during the
session of Congress.

CLEVELAND FOR A FREE SHIP
LAW.

n. Y. Sun Dem.).
That the author of the Hawaiian and
Samoan policies has heard from the
country, is evident from these surpris
ing remarks of Mr. Cleveland at Phil
adelphia on Monday:
"Our flag not only tells of our existence, but
it is a symbol of all that American lnstitr-
tions represent. 1t is glorious and patriotic
to uphold our flag, and to follow 1t and de1enu
it, but it is also glorious and patriotic to carry
our flag to all parts of the world, and to ex-
tend its defence and protection to American
men and American property in the ports OF
every nation"
That is the right sort of talk from
an American President, providing 1T
comes from the heart. Sentiments
like those expressed by Mr.. Cleveland
on the occasion of the launching of the
st. Louis have never before proceeded
from his lips. Do they indicate an
embryonic patriotism in breast that
has never before been known to thrill
at the sight of the Star-spangled Ban
ner; the sudden conversion to Amerl-
can ideas of mind which has never
concerned itself with questions OF
maritime extension or studied the flag
af1oat except on deadhead trips to the
Dismal Swamp or to BuZzard's Bay?
Words, we fear, and nothing but
words, are these strangely patriotic
remarks of Grover Cleveland. For
the honor of our flag" he goes on to
say, 81 am willing that the defence of
our Government and flag shall be ac-
corded to all ships of American own
ership, wherever built" 81 shall deem
myself especially Fortunate" he mod
estly adds, elf in time to come it can
be said that | have done something
during my present incumbency in aid
of the freedom and extension of
American commerce and the conse-
quent further growth of American
ship-building."
What does that mean? 1t means
simply that this master of the states
manship of destruction, who now
talks so g,ibly about sending the flag
to all parts of the earth, has made up
his mind to 60 in at the next session OF
Congress for free ship bill, with its
consequent death-blow to one of the
noblest of American industries.
American commerce in foreign-built
bottoms is the Cleveland program; the
American flag at the peak of second
hand British tramp steamships; the
closing up of American shipyards and
shipbuilding plants, and the purchase
from foreign builders of such ships of
war as we may need for our navy!

IT is two and half months since
the new tariff law began to operate,
and on Tuesday the Government for
the second time during the Cleveland
Administration issued bonds to the
amount of $50, 100000. Since the Nc
Kinley law was made imperative the
Government revenue frcm customs has
been so reduced that there was not
money enough to pay the running ex-
penses of the government, hence this
bond issue, the interest of which will
cost the government So, 100000. Demo-
crat demagoguery costs like mischief,
but we must grin and bear it. The
new tariff law is proven failure, and
the financial policy Of this administra-
tion would shame school boy. The
wise judgement of such men as John
Sherman is counted as naught, while
the demogogues reign. But it wont
be for long!

THE DELAWARE sENAToRsH1P.

From the Evining Bulletin Rep).
The election of United States Sena-
tor by the new legislature in Delaware
will be determined by the Republican
caucus of that body. The legislature at
Dover is the smallest in the United
States, containing but thirty members
in both branches, so that the candidate
who secures sixteen votes for the Sena-
torship is secure of election.
The small number of votes which are
required in the caucus has raised some
a 'prehension whether it may not be
easily captured in the interest of car
didate who would not be thought of for
the Senatorship if the choice were to be
made by the people. 1t has been given
out that Mr.. j. Edward Addicks, who
has accumulated a fortune largely
thrOuh the manufacture of gas-making
properties as a capitalist and specula-
tor, is ambitious Of this distinction.
This is the same enterprising Million
aire who not long ago conceived the
notion of raiding the Philadelphia Gas
Works.
The Republicans in Delaware have
achieved a great victory; but they
would soon reduce its fruits to ashes if
Mr.. Addicks or any other candidate
who has no particular claim on the
party outside of the liberal use of his

FREDERICK EDEN BACH.

We extend our congratulations to
Frederick Eden Bach. No man comes
out of the recent fight with colors fly :
in g higher than he. We admire him and
have always been his friend, and when
some members of the Republican party
saw 6t to criticize him, unjustly as We
know, we did our best to hold up his
hands. Now the victory is won, and
Mr.. Bach is the hero of the hour, to
him be all honor. The Republican
party cannot set too high an estimate
upon his service, and in grateful
recognition of his loyal and tireless
efforts, not only through the recent
campaign, but through years when a
less valiant leader would have given
up in hopeless defeat, the party should
tender him its choicest gift. as only
commensurate with his services. And
while he claims no reward, and is not
seeking personal aggrandizement, it is
due him that his victorious leadership
be suitably recognized, and we hope
Governor-elect Mervil will see fit to
honor him.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, November 18th, 1884,
Mr.. Cleveland has, according to trust
worthy information, fully decided to
give the country striking exhibition
of the man who refuses to either see
or heed the object lesson contained in
the greatest vote of confidence in the
Republican party and condemnation of
the Democratic party ever put on re-
cord by the people of the United States,
by coming out strongly in his annual
message TO Congress, which is already
partially prepared, for the passage by
the Senate at the coming session of
Congress of the Wilson pop-gun tariff
bills placing and iron on the free list.
1t seems almost absurd that he should
be willing, after the people have spoken
so plainly, to 60 on record with such a
recommendation. But he has SO often
been guilty Of political obtuseness, or,
to express it less elegantly, bullhead-
ness, that nothing lie does need aston
ish anybody. In this case it is bound to
be wasted recommendation even if the
Democratic Senators should drop their
personal enmity to Mr.. Cleveland,
which has been intensified by the great
Democrat defeat, loEg enough to try
to pass the pop-gun bills, which it will
be rememberd have already passed the
House. The Republican Senator can,
and will prevent the passage of any
tariff tinkering bills at the short ses-
sion of Congress, even if it be neces-
sary to block every appropriation bill
in order to do SO, but extreme measures
will hardly be necessary. There are
reasons to believe that sufficient
number of Democratic Senators stand
ready to pledge their votes against the
por-gun bills to insure their defeat,
but it is extremely doubtful whether
either of them will be dignifed to the
extent of being formally voted upon.
