terday morning on Personal Liberty
From Spurious Standpointo."
TRUE PERSONAL LIBERTY.
'The man who has no will to do III fs
the only man who has true personal lib
erty. This is OF the loftlest teaching OF
Christianity. the loftiest achievement OF
the Christlan-the freedom Of the man
who has come out victorious from that
battle OF the seventh chapter OF Romans
between flesh and spirit, in which the cry
is heard. What l would / do not, ana
what l would not that l do. and has
passed through the triumphai arch OF the
blessed eighth shouting. There is, there
fore, now no condemnation to them thab
are In Christ Jesus-free from tho guilt
OF sln not only. but also from the power
OF IL. and tho very love OF 1t, and so free
from tho law because he obeys 1t freely,
from innermost preference. not by OUT
ward constraint. whether Of force or fear.
LIBERTY TO DO WRONG.
"The personal liberty of tho liquor SELLER
to sell his maddening poison, Of the dens
of infamy to sell yet more deadly vices, ON
any day, means Aberty to break the hearts
of mothers and damn the lives of sons by
ghe score. The personal liberty OF the
drunkard to make himself a temporary lu-
Matte interferes with the liberties of mem
and women and children wherever he et-
erc.ses that liberty, The law Abridges no
mans personal liberty except his liberty to
do wrong and that only in the defence OF
The liberties of others.
1.-TWO millions OF people ro-day. az many
as were delivered from the despotism OF
King George by the revolution. are now IN
a more serious bondage. Sunday slavery to
King Greed. doing needless Sunday worlr
with uneasy conscfemces." a.

Ths argument prepared by Edward G..
Bradford, ex-senator Anthony Higgins of
this city. and Halbert e. Paine OF Wash
ington. ID. O., counsel for Colonel Henry
A. DUPONT in support Of his claim to a
seat In the United States Senate from
Delaware. has been printed. 1t covers
nearly 100 pages and is an able argument
on the question.
The propositions set forth In the argu-
ment are;
Il. 1t Is rule of the common law that
no person shall exercise two incompatible
Offices at the same time.
z. Under the American system, execu-
tive and legislative Offices are incompati-
BILE, and no person can exercise both ST.
multaneously, without express or implied
statutory or constitutional authority.
%. There Is no express or implied au-
thority, in the Delaware Constitution, for
the simultaneous exercise, by the same
person, of the offices Of governor and sena-
tor; on the contrary, the constitution ex-
pressly interdicts such exercise of those
two Offices. And. therefore, at the time,
when Mr.. DuPolt received fifteen votes. in
the Joint assembly, Mr.. Watson was in
capable of exercising the office of senator,
IL he was. at that time, the governor of
Delaware.
-. Mr.. Watson was, at that time gov
ernor of Delaware. and was, therefore,
incapable OF exercising the Office OF sena-
tor, or the office Of speaker of the Senate
80. The theory that while Mr. Watson
exercises the office of governor. he is ca
pable of exercising the office of senator
and speaker of the Senate involves great
difficulties and endless absurdities. The
opposite theory reconclies all the provis-
ions of the Delaware Constitution relating
to the subject under consideration.
&c. Governor Watson's exercise of the
office of senator. in the joint assembly
and OF the office of president of that as
sembly, was Illegal; and his vote for
United States senator was a nullity.
~. IL it had not been true that Mr..
Watson was. on the 9th day of May, 1895.
In every sense of the state constitution,
the goverEor of Delaware, 1t would never
theless have been true that he was ex-
erclsing the oflce OF governor. and was,
therefore, incapable of holding the office
OF senator or the office OF speaker of the
Senate; and that his disability could not
be removed. for >his senatorial term Will
end before governor, elected by the
people, can be qualified,
"S. Mr. DUPONT, having received a ma
1orlty of the legal votes cast in the Joint
assembly. his right to the Office OF sena-
tor Is not impaired by the fact that he
fails to present the certificate OF Governor
Watson as evidence OF his election
''The fact that Mr.. DUPONT received flf-
teen votes. in the joint convention, is not
only established by abundant proof. but is
a fact OF public notoriety. and is also an
unquestioned fact. The only question in
tho case is whether Governor Watson had
a right to vote for senator, in the joint
convention. That is largely a question OF
law. AS to the elements of fact. which It
involves. there is no dispute or doubt, or
room for dispute or doubt."i

From the Morning Ne ws.

Mr.. j. Edward Addicks and State sena-
tor Robert j. Handy now know just ex-
actly where a considerable proportion of
the representative voters of the Republi-
can party stand. They have had notice
served upon them of what they may ex-
pect. Whatever the outcome of the pres
ent unfortunate situation in this county
the fate of party success rests with the
signers of the protest. They are men who
mean what they say, and they are willing
to go to any extent to maintain their self
respect and to do what they deem best for
the party to which they are bound through
love for its principles. Principles and
not men is the meaning Of theiG seelara-
tion. ,f,t,l - -

Good bye dear santa Claus. CLAUS



The Sussex Republican says: What
hold Mr.. AddIcks may have upon the lie.
publicnns OF Sussex county Is not because
of any personal magnetism or OF any
acknowledged fitness for the position he
aepires to fill, hut merely because they
believe that money is necessary to buy
votes to beat the Dem ocrats. and that Mr.
j. Edward Addicks Ia the only man fool
enough to advance the am cunt requisite
for the purpose This 10 the whole matter
In nutshell and 1t IL the only argument
that any man can use In support OF the
candidacy OF MIR. Addlcks.
1t is the only qnality that he profcsses
to have. Upon IL lie bases his claim to
political preferment. He believes In the
power OF money. and 1t IL powerful lie
wanta to be a United States Senator aud
believes he can buy his way thcra through
lutte Delaware aud Is trying to do 80.
Shall he succeed?
Are We willing TO buy our way Into
power with Addicks' money aud pay his
price for Its user Are all tine fat offices
and ever resounding praise worth iL?
IL is condition that confronis US. vii
the Republican party rlse equal to the
uccnslon or will it put a premium on 20
iitlcaI corruption? vs. shall fight for the
former because we believe II 20 be right
and the best policy for tue Republican
party. And In this day and hour. when
tho American people eoem 10 DO awaken
Ing to the danger OF political machines
and bosses and the power CT money as q
medium of bribery, we would utter
mote of warning" to the RepuDiicnns o
