A silence followed and delay; then two

The men. knowing Paul, bowed low to him
and asked him his pleasure, and he COM

wandered. knowing not whether he came
from the duke or despite the duke. but he was
urgent in his commands. and at length they
tied a scarf over his eyes, and set him on his
horse and led the horse. Thus they went for

seeking his brother and yowing vengeance on

But the duke was not first out of the city:
for he found stream of townsmen fiocking
across the bridge; and at the end Of the
bridge was gathering of men, huddled close

The pikemen made way for his highness,
and when the peasant saw him, he ran to
him, and resting his hand on the neck of the

But when night fell they became silent,
even Tommasino grew grave and checked his
horse. and tho space between them and the
pair who led grew greater, so that it seemed
TO Duke Paul that he and Antonio rode alone
through the night. under the shadows of the
great hills. Once and again he spoke to An
tonic, first OF the scheme, then on some light
matter; but Antonio did no more than move
his head in assent. And Antonio's face was
very white, and his lips were close shut.
1t was midnight when they reached the
plain: the moon, till now hidden by the
mountains, shone on them, and seeing Anto-
MOS face more plainly, Paul Cried half IN

Martolo to bring him lanterns: ono hung

The CENTRAL Western States think
that theirs is the soil to grow Presid en-.
tial timber OF the four prominent can
didates for the Republican nomination,
overwhelmingly, Harrison, and Allison
are from that section.
The historical argument seems 10 be
with the Central Western States, for in
seven of the nine Presidential elections
held since Buchauau's day, the success.
full candidate has come from Ohio,
Indiana or Illinois. The only man to
break the success of the candidates from
those States has been Grover Cleveland,
and he is quite an unusual sort OF man.
Now that President Cleveland has
had his two terms and will be candi-
date no more, the Democrats Of the
president-growing States are putting
forward aspirants for the nomination.
AS you go West, you first strike the
habitat of presidents in Ohio. There
the Democrats have Ex-Governor James
Il, Campbell, He will figure in the
next convention as Ohio's fayorite-son
candidate.
Across the river, in Kentucky, is the
residence of John G. Carlisle, who, be.
sides the advantages that everybody
knows about has the advantage of having
been Southern Democrat aud vet o
Union man during the war. He will be
Kentucky's favorite son in tho conven-
ton.
Indiana Democrats are for the first
time in many years without factional
divisions. The old Hendricks Nc Donald
feud has passed. away with the death of
the older politicians. Indiana Demo.
Gratis are now harmonious and promise
to ask with united froat for the nomi.
nation of tho present Governor of In
diana, Claude Matthews.
Illinois is rich in favoritc sons. She is
the only State in the bunch with more
than one. She has two--Yice President
Stevenson and Colonel William r.
Morrison.
Across the Mississippi river, in Iowa,
the Democrats think that Ex-Governor
Horace Boies is the man to nominate for
President
These five Central Western States thus
furnish six possible candidates for the
Democratic Presidential nomination,
and they arc six good men; but,
although 1t may not strike the people
out there in the same way, we fancy
that little Delaware could furnish a
Presidential nominee just little bit
better than any of the six.

II docs not do to get too much in this
world, That is what is the matter with
the Republican party at the present
writing. 1t got too much for Its own
good at last falls election. In the ex.
pressive language Of the street, it got
the earth, and 1t has not been able to
use 1t with either pleasure or profit. The
indications are growing plentiful that IL
will have TO give II all up again.
When political party wins too big a
victory and sweeps the opposition clear
off of the field, II begins to have trouble
within It's own ranks. It is a fighting
machine, aud when there is no enemy
in sight for it to flght, it begins to fight
itself. That Is exactly what the Re-
publican party has been doing since it
routed tho Democrats last November.
All Of our readers know how the fac.
tional fight ragged in this State. Every
body sees how completely ithas wrecked
the party. Even Mr., Bach has admitted
that the case OF the Republieansis hone
less here. He threw up the sponge in
his Republican Glasses" and intimatcd
that tariff reform would go trinmphantly
for four years more in Delaware.
The fractional lighting in Delaware Is
only sample of what is going on in
other and bigger States. Out in Ohio
the two factions which are eating each
other up are headed respectively by
Foraker and Mckinley. Foraker is
named first because his faction is on top
of Mckinley's and is doing most OF the
eating. AS a result of the wrangle, II is
pretty certain that three-fourths of the
enormous Republican majority given at
the last election will disappear at the
election next November. If the scrap
in the Republican ranks grows any
worse the whole thing will go.
In New York the factional fighting is
intense. Plat is the head Of one faction.
Warner Miller, Mayor Strong and the
Union League are on the top in the
other Tue opposition loves Plat about

many pet names, as the Business Mems
Republican Club does j. Edward Adj
dicks. Tammany has always been
called tiger. These hostile factions
might well be named after some smaller
and tiercer breed of cats. Perhaps wild
cats would do. Their fighting Is SO
vicious and their cries are so loud. New
York will turn the fighting cats out of
doors at the first opportunity.
In Pennsylvania, Quay and Hastings
are rolling on the ground in a rough
aud tumble fight. The Republican
majority grow SO big that fractional
war in the ranks was inevitable and
here 1t is. 1t may last for years, AM
the longer it lasts the smaller will be
the Republican majority at the end.
We sec these factioral fights in the
Republican party raging in three of the
biggest States in the Union. New York
has 80 electoral votes; Pennsylvania, 80;
and Ohio, 20. These States have more
than a fifth Of the whole electoral col
lege. II is no wonder that our Republi.
can friends are not SO, sure as they were
six months ago of electing a Republican
President in 1896.

1t is not according to the taste of this
western world to have the streets OF
cities crowded with masterless dogs, as
they are in the far East, and have been
ever since dogs comforted Lazarus. The
law in Wilmington requiring owners of
dogs TO register them aud pay a fec
therefor, and providing for the slaugh-
ter Of all unregistered dogs, is effective
in reducing the number. From the
standpoint of people who might be an
noyed by too many dogs, it is kind
and good law; but from the standpoint
of the dogs, it is very cruel law. The
best behaved and most arniable dog alive
-one filled with cheerful views of life
and kindly sentiment towards men, or
even one who goes so far as to be
friendly towards other dogs and tolerant
of cats-is liable in this city, through no
fault of his own, to capital punishment.
He may be in good health, with an excel.
lent appetite aud good digestion, taking
joy in every leap, and feeling thrill of
pleasure with every bark; but if he has
no tag Of registration on his collar lie is
in constant danger Of sudden death.
This cruel fate overtakes him because
no man has been kind enough to pay a
dollar that he may live for a year.
From the dogs standpoint it is essen.
tally a cruel law. The Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is ex-
pected to look at things from the
animals standpoint II is a society
which realizes that dogs have rights.
1t has grusped the truth that God
made dogs as well as men.
It's mission is to stand between dumb
animals and all those who would spite
fully and cruelty uso them. 1t is easy
to understand that the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals would
interest itself to see that dogs killed in
Wilmington are dealt the death blow in
as merciIul manner as possible. But
that this society should be willing to
take upon itself the obligationto hunt
down the dogs and bring them to their
death is "a hard thing to understand Ii
looks as if their best friend had gone
back on the dogs.

NNsft" N'f- - f''afN0EtHs
In the isoal year which ended on
June Both, 1891, the receipts Of the gov
eminent of the United States were
$2ss, 722 1870, and tho expenditures were
$3G7, 5a5007. The deficiency was, there
fore, $7s,s0a,o77, The Mckinley tariff
was in force throughout the whole OF
that fiscal year, and the deficiency oc-
Cured under laws for which tho Repub.
lican party was responsible.
In the fiscal year which ended San
day, June Soth, 1895, the receipts of the
government of the United States were
1911 ,606,976. and the expenditures were
$35e, 100, 400. The deficiency was, there.
fore, $li,40i,1s3, Tho Mckinley tariff
was in force the first two months of this
fiscal year, and the Democratic tariff
was in force the last ten months.
Republican papers have been very
brave in denouncing the new tariff be-
cause 1t did not produce revenue enough
to run the government, but here are the
figures proving that under the new tariff
the deficiency is $34,SiS,794 less than 1t
was under the Mckinley tariff.
1t Is true that all OF this difference is
not due to difference in the revenue
derived from the tariff. A great deal
is due to the increasing economy and
saving of Clevcland's administration
As his reform work progresses, the ex-
penses of the government are reduced.
Comparing the expenses of the year
ending June Both, 1894, with those of
the year ending June 3Oth, 1906, IL is
found that the government spent
$11,334,6 3S less in the latter year, and
this in spite oil an increase of more than
three millions paid for interest on debt.
Democratic economy is having Its effect
Making q direct comparison of the
revenue received from the Mckinley
tariff and the revenue received from the
tarif last year, we find that in the fiscal
year of 1924, under the Mckinley tariff,
the government received from custom
receipts $l3l ,sls,53l, and in the year
just completed the government received
from custom receipts $i52, 35S, G76.
Therefore this new tariff, which the Re-
publicans denounce because it does not
produce revenue, has actually produced
S2O,540, l45 more revenue than the
Mckinley tariff, with all its extortions,
produced In the last year Of its existence.
Moreover, the present tariff by stimu.
lating business activity and promoting
prosperity is producing more and more
revenue every month. During the last
month-June, 1S05-the receipts of the
government exceeded the expenditures
by $2,263,311.
In the figures given in this editorial
no account is taken of postal disburse-
ments and receipts which nearly bal.
ance each other. Neither is any &C.
count taken of the money coming to the
treasury from the sale of bonds.

The Milford Chronicle, being an ardent
Republican paper, would like to see the
Republican party win in Delaware next
year. To this end it talks plainly to
the other Republican papers, and gives
some shrewd and surprisingly frank adj
vice. 1t says;
The hrst step in this direction is to stop
all arguments as to the past and look only
to the future. There is much to be done.
and diplomacy is needed, il the Republi-
cans are to get their party in a condition
and position to attempt TO win next year.
Nothing could be wiser for Delaware
Republicans than to stop all mention Of
the past. Their hope of success lies in
blottipg out the past from the memories
Of the people. The Chronicle is right
about that. Cover up the past. Hide it
frop every eye. Deny its existence. Ii
is Uttered with broken Republican
promises. II is filled with the noise of
bitter Republican strife. 1t is foul and
filthy with Republican corruption. So
long as they remember it, the people
can not be expected to trust the llepub.
lican party aeain. The Republican
paper which enters into any argument
about any political occurrence happen
ing in Delaware previous to the Viii.
mington city election Of June LIST, 1895,
is not wise The party must start
anew, and try to build up good
name in the future. It must put all OF
its stress on promises with never Il mem
ton OF what It actually did when given
power in Delaware. It is an expert in
making promises for the future and il
must stick close to its speciality I'M
questionably the Chronicle IS right in
saying that diplomacy is needed" Al
il says, further on in the editorial from
which the above extract is taken, 1.-THE
G.. o. p. in Delaware is in danger
It needs for a leader some Talleyrand in
diplomacy. II needs man smart
enough to tempt bird with chat. II
must have one so full Of diplomacy that
he can slip up unobserveI and Put a
little fresh salt on the birds tail.

Political parties arc not, as rule, very
faithful TO their so'called principles.
They often shape platform declarations
with no definite Intention except 10
make them attractive to voters. The
tendencies Of parties ars more perma-
nent and reliable than their platforms
or their much Wanted principles. A
close observer of tho public service will
have little difficulty in discovering that
when the Republican party is in power
II has tendency to spend more money
than the Democrats. Republicans would
explain this by saying that the Demo-
cratic party is a narrow-mindcd, cheese.
pairing pnrty, while the Republican
party is more liberal and generous In Its
policy. Democrats put different con-
struction upon the facts and say that
the Republican party is wasteful and ex-
travagant while the Democratic party is
more economical and careful Of the peo-
pies money. Explain 1t as you may, the
tendency OF tho Republican party to
spend more money and of the Demo.
cratic party to spend less is very mani.
fest. An illustration is now before the
American people. The close of the
fiscal year brings out the fact that Cleve.
lands administration has within the
year cut down the expenses of the
national government more than eleven
million dollars, Notwithstanding an in
crease in interest charges and the cost
of pensions. BY the side of this, we
have the greatest State in the Union,
New York, passing under complete con-
troll OF the Republican party. The Re.
publican Legislature and Republican
Governor Of that State have increased
the expenditures Of the State in
the past year nearly fifty per
cent, and the rate for State taxation
has accordingly been raised from 2.1S to
3.e4 mills. New York City, the greatest
municipality in the Union, also went
under Republican control last fall, and
the New York letter in Tuesdays Phila.
delphia Ledger makes the statement that
the tax rate in the city must be increased
from $1.79 per 800 to Sl.s5 and per.
haps $3.50. OF the two great parties,
certainly government is cheaper when
administered by Democrats. Whether
it is also better is the question which is
at issue between the two parties. 1t is no
part Of the present statement.
