Just Rotrlbution an UntrustWorthy
Administration.
Two successive overwhelming de-
feats ought 10 convince the democratic
party that it's administration of nation
nj and state affairs does not meet with
popular approval. The election in 1894
was a powerful expression of this disap-
proyal. and Tuesday 5 emphasized IL.
The democratic party has no one TO
blame but itself. 1t repudiated its sol
emn promises made in 1892. ltpledged
itself in that year TO provide sufficient
revenue 20 run the government. 1t has
not done SO. IL pledged itself 10 treat
gold and silver with the same consid-
Grafton. Ii has not done so. Itplcdged
itself to mnintaina foreign policy con-
sistent and vigorous, compelling re-
spcct abroad and inspiring confidence
Mt home" 1t has not done so. 1t
pledged itself 10 rigidly enforce the
laws against trusts, and then sold itself
body and soul TO King Havemeyer's
sugar gang.
With such n monument of broh>n
promises is IL any wonder that the peo
pie refuse TO believe or trust the demo
cratic party?
There are four things the democratic
party must do TO redeem itself in the
estimation OF the people of these
United States. They are: Reform IT.
self: fully learn the sacredness OF
pledge; perform honestly and fearless
Is it's duty as expressed In it's plat
forms; retire forever and ever the
crowd of fossilated mugwumps who
have got control OF IL.
These things done-and IL will re-
quira a long time and hard work 10 do
them-thc democratic party may then
come forward with some hope of being
~ least recognized as party with
which the people can transact business.
When that time comes a large majority
of those now living will have been gath
sied 20 the bosom OF Abraham. And
the big mugwnmp will have been fer
gotten.-Chicngo Press.

idol are rapidly diminishing among tho far
mers or TINS country
If ''thc worshippers of the Mckinley
tariff idol" arc diminishing, why did
many hitherto democratic farmers last
year join the republican party? IL was
TO repudiate Grover Cleveland, and all
that he stands for, and nothing else.
They ranged themselves with the re-
publican party for protection. IL the
coming session of congress don't try TO
give them protection sufficient 70 pro-
tect, these former democratic farmers
will have no further use for the repub-
lican party, and these democratic news
papers know IL. This Is why they are
shrielSing so loudly that Mckinley pro
lection is dead issue. They want IL
to be a dead issue, otherwise they are
beaten. These former democratic far
mers want the law that made the
American people under Gen. Harrison's
administration not only the most pros
porous in its history, but the most
prosperous people In all the world

LAST week reference was made to
an anonymous letter which appeared
in the Erery Evening of May 1st, but
not having space for the entire letter
only brief notice was made then of it.
The letter deals of personal matters,
and as the readers of the TRANSCRIPT
are the most intelligent citizens of this
community, of the county, and of the
State, it is given on the first page in
full that every reader may Judge of it's
charges, Of the ''grand and lofty feats
Of political tumbling" to which the
editorless paper around the corner re-
fers, the particulars of which it is very
careful not to mention.
But what says the anonymousl letter2
That "Mr. Downham was not chosen
speaker as he thought he would be. !"
How contemptibly little must be the
man who penned that sentence, if he
really knew the facts-as we believe!
The want of intellect in the editorless
sheet around the corner excuses it from
senselessly accepting the ipse dirit of
the EUery Evening. What are the
facts? Mr.. Downham was chosen
speaker on the first ballot in the caucus
of Republican members of that GEN.

MIDDLETOWN, DEL, MAY II, 1895.

THE State of Delaware has two
United States Senators to-day despite
the treachery of four men elected as
Republicans, the unprecedented action
of Senator Governor and would-be-
Dictator, William 7. Watson, and
foolishly prolonged struggle among
the Republican members. The Sena-
tor is Col. Henry A. DUPONT, man
who requires no introduction to the
Republicans or the people of New
Castle county. He is a man who in
personal character, educational qualifi-
cations, business integrity, and natural
ability, is the equal of Mr.. Gray who
will be his colleague, and he comes of a
family whose history is credit and an
honor to the State, in the army and navy,
in the business and social world. We
congratulate the people of Delaware
and the Republican party in particular
upon the election of Col. DUPONT, and
we present our compliments to the
Senator-elect and pledge to him a
united party. Hurrah for Senator

A complimentary copy of the
TRANSCRIPT is presented this week to
our farmer friends in and around Mid
dletown. And when we look on their
broad acres, their commodious dwell
ings, their growing crops, their free,
open-air independence, and contrast
them with the hard lot of an editor, the
disappointments of politics, the in
sistence of the patent medicine ad-
vertiser that he shall be at top of
column, with reading matter at the
right of him, reading matter at the
left Of him, and reading matter behind
him, we envy the farmer his happy lot
and wish ourselves back behind the
plow handles. Of course some "smart
Alex" will deliver himself of the
opinion that we should never have been
anywhere else, but such man has not
soul enough to appreciate the value Of
the ''clod hopper" as he would slight
ingly refer to the men through whose
labor comes the substantial wealth and
prosperity of the country.
The TRANSCRIPT desires to get on
the best of terms with the farmers of
this community. It's columns are open
to them to discuss all matters of in
terest, and so far as lays within our
power it shall be our duty as well as
our pleasure to insist upon giving the
agricultural interests of this commun-
ity that protection which they so much
need from burdensome taxes and poll
tical jobs that few may flourish at
the expense of the many.
There is one thing more that the
TRANSCRIPT desires of the farmers,
wives and daughters. We wish to
chronicle all the social happenings of
the community, and we must rely on
the people interested to keep us posted.
Let the country folks do as their city
cousins do; send to the papers direct
and at once notice Of the little social
matters, including the visits and visi-
tations of the aforesaid city cous-
ins, and all other personal matters of
interest to the readers of the local
paper. Will you do it? Try it.
