IL THE CoUNTY-ADDICKs' TRIUMPH.
Interest at Republican headquarters,
Saturday night, centred in the news
from Brandywine hundred, and when
it came il filled the Higgins partisans
who assembled there with dismay. They
had no further interest in the election,
and less than half dozen remained in
the headquarters after 10 o'clock.
The fight in Brandywine was fast and
furious but Bob Handy, the Addicks
candidate for State Senator, carried
everything before him. The Higgins
leaders are crying fraud, and charge
that wagon loads Of Wilmington negroes
were brought to the polling places and
voted the Handy ticket, fof which they
were we'll paid.
The vote in the hundred was unusu-
ally large, and it all went Hanby's way
He received in the North district 1879
votes to so for Day. Iu the South, 10
to 23 for Day. Total, Handy, 239; Day,

of the West district swells Hanby's

A. p. A. Declarations.

The supreme council OF the A. P. A.
completed a four days session at Des
MOines, Iowa, last Saturday. Its most
important work was the declaration of
principles, the consideration of which
occupied two days. Some of its prin-
ciples can be endorsed by all citizens,
irrespective of race, party or creed. 1t
does not aspire to political control,
upholds the public school system
protests against the mont taxation of
church property; demands the pro-
lection of labor against the importa-
ton of pauper labor, and change in
the naturalization law so as to require
ten years residence, and ability to
speak the English language. Section
three has reference more particularly
to their attitude toward Roman Catho-
licism, andis as follows:
While tolerant of all creeds, it holds
that subsection to and support of any
ecclesiastical power not created and
controlled by American citizens and
which claims equal if not greater SOW
ereignty than the government of the
United States of America is irreconci-
liable with citizenship. 1t is therefore
opposed to the holding of Office in
national or municipal government by
any subject or supporter of such
ecclesiastical power.-Herald.

For the Protection of Game.

The novel game and fish league IS
proposed by Fish Commissioners Muir
dock of California. The object OF 1t
is to be the promotion of good fellow
ship and fraternity among sportsmen,
and, incidentally, the enforcement OF
the game laws. He says: "My idea
is this: Organize a state league to
which everybody who wants to join is
eligible. Then we could have small
button to wear in our lapels. When
ever a member of the league saw
another wearing button he could
speak to him as with a cOmrade. That
idea of fraternity is, l think, the chief
thing to be considered. The dues
would be nominal-abOut 81 year.
There would he headquarters III this
city and in every town and village
there would be branch. | can see
how much good an organization OF
that sort would do in carrying out the
fish and game laws. If the plans are
properly made and the thing is rightly
taken hold of, there should be at least
a membership of 100000 in the state.
Now 100000 people all having the
same object IN view, would be a power
full influence. You see the way things
are now, one man in community
will poach. Another, who really de-
sires to obey the law, will see the man
who does not care anything about it
enjoying himself taking game and fish
out of season, and the law-abiding
man says to himself that there is no
use OF respecting the statutes when
his neighbor is breaking them. That's
the reason there are so many poachers
Now the new league will be powerful
educational body, and we can send
from headquarters every once in a
while literature that will still further
cultivate the spirit Of game preserva-
ton. The money derived from dues
will be devoted to the enforcement oil
The laws and any other measure that
will look toward the prevention Of the
destruction of fish and game."-

Indians in Public Schools.

State Superintendent Bean is in re-
ceipt of letter from the interior de-
partment soliciting cooperation in ef-
forts to have states and territories
partly inhabited by Indians, open the
public schools to these wards of the
nation. The experience of the de.
partment is, that no agency produces
such gratifying results in ciyilizino
and imbuing the Indians with habits
of thrift, industry and self-reliance
as to assimilate with children of their
white neighbors.
The Indian office is prepared to en-
ter into contract with the trustees Of
public schools, as we'll as with the
trustees of public schools of cities and
and towns, for the instruction of Ind
ian children, under suitable conditions
and will agree to pay for such instruc-
lions ten dollars per quarter for everv
