mr. Samuel Bancroft, Jr, and the Ring
MIR Samuel Bancroft, Jr., will moi
realize his Congressional expectations.
Hih defeat is simply matter Of time and
place.
II the Democratic State convention be
guided by prudence and the welfare OF
the party It will refuse to put him on
the ticket and he will 20 down to defeat
on Tuesday II the Democratic ring,
which now exists in this county, forces
the New Castle county caucus to name
him and the State convention to endorse
such action, then be will 60 down TO de
feat 10 November and the ring will 60
with him.
The people Of New Castle county win
no longer submit 20 bossism and one man
politics. They have borRe it for years,
but the time has come when they will
assert themselves. II the ring Is tired
Of existence and wants to be retired it
has not better instrument of self
destruction at command than that Of
forcing the nomination Of Mr. Samuel
Bancroft, Jr., upon the Democratic
voters Of Delaware.
The action Of the Bancroft delegates,
elected BY fraud, corruption and trick
cry, win not be binding upon the De
mocracy Of the State. 1t will be repudi
ated BY the voters and such reputation
may extend to other candidates who are
wholly innocent Of the outrage now med.
.tated and about to be perpetrated.
What will the adherents Of Cooch,
Cochran, Whiteman aud Handy do when
they see such men turned down to give
place to Republican who has repudiatsd
his party because he could not secure
political preferment in it and is now
seeking shelter in any party which will
give It to him
Il ls all very well for these men TO
pledge their supporters to vote for the
party nominee. but they cannot carry
out their pledges with Mr. Samuel Ban
croft, Jr, on the ticket Their sup
p3rters would not listen 70 them aud would |
Ont him from Brandywine to Baltimore.
Two years ago the New Castle county
ring which Is now backing the candidacy
Of Mr. Samuel Bancroft, Jr., went before |
the people with uuexceptional candidates;
with the power Of the Levy Court and
the county tax Office at It's back and with |
money AZ their command. By almost su
psrhuman efforts it won the fight
by narrow msrgin and lost the sheriff.
Since then the ring has made itself
moro obnoxious than ever by the personal
politics introduced. and by the arrogant
attitude it has assumed towards the
voters. The Democracy OF New Castle
county is only awaiting reasonable
excuse for turning upon these men aud
driving them from power. No more
reasonable excuse than the nomination
OF Mr. Samuel Bancroft, Jr., will be
headed. ifthe ring wants to commit
suicide it should nominate him. Ii Il
wants 20 proloug it's existence It must
help 70 nominate Democrat who enjoys
The confidence Of the people
