Tho Democratic victories in Indian
apolis, Providence, and Boston, with
the reduced Republican plurality in
Brooklyn, are signs Of serious moment
to the Philadelphia Press rep. 1t
recalls that three years ago, when the
Republican landslide began, it made
its first appearance in the cities" and
it wonders whether there is not some
general cause TO explain" the change.
Any way it thinks lit will be well If
the Republicans take note of these
warning signals held out from cities
and ask themselves if in the confidence
Of an assured return to power they
have not done something to weaken the
trust of the people and ultimately
bring upon Themselves such AN en-
phatic rebuke as the Democratic party
has received"

Mr.. Addicks is in full control OF tho
Republican party in Kent and Sussex.
OF that fact there can be no conceal
ment. They have been patiently wait
ing for him to pay the taxes for their
ignorant and indifferent voters, who do
not care enough for citizenship to pay
their own poll taxes. They have looked
to him and to no one else to do it. He
says that there arc four thousand such
voters who would become delinquent
and be disfranchiscd IL he does not pay
their faxes for them, and his estimate
is probably correct. Nobody else is
attending to tho work. The Republi-
can organization has awaited his bid
ding and his check for tho needed
money. He says he has decided to
send the check without regard to the
seating or rejection of Colonel du Pont
by the United States Senate. This
means that Mr. Addicks will be the
absolute owner Of the Republican party
in Kent and Sussex. Everybody knows
that the hand which feeds a dog is the
hand which masters il. Dogs must
have food, and they love the feeder
bark ioyousTy at his coming, fondly
lick his generous hand, and follow his
footsteps wherever he goes. The OK
lsnoweth his owner and even the ass his
masters crib. The Republican poll
ticians of Kent and Sussex know as
much as the OK or the ass, and they will
follow Mr.. Addicks' leadership as the
dog follows his owners steps. We have
repeatedly pointed out that the only way
to beat Mr.. Addicks is to beat the Re-
publican party. BY the diet OF checks
on which he has so persistently fed the
Republican party he has reversed tho
old provcrb. Instead of "love me, love
my dog, " he has made it, love tho dog,
love me. " There is, of course, a re-
tyolt against Mr.. Addicks among the
Republicans Of this county. Six
hundred of them have signed paper
dehouncing him. He is about to answer
the six hundred names by check foi
six thousand dollars or thereabout. II
is wicked but it will win the Repub-
lican organization in Kent and Sussex.

government for the last fiscal year
amounted to Si3a l1s, i2d 4S. This il
far short Of the enormous figures set by

Foolish Republican Talk.

At banquet in honor Of the recent
Republican victory in Maryland, given
by the Seventh Ward Republican Club
OF baltimore, Thursday, Congressman
Wellingto said:
The Congressional victories Of 1894
led up to the great victory of this
year. The Republicans have won the
fight themselves. To-day we can say
that Maryland is as safely Republican
as Massachusetts. The result has been
brought about by such organizations
as your association. Such men as
these have wrought the redemption of
the State. In one year we will have
"A Republican President and control in
all the coordinate branches of govern
ment, and then we will flaunt the ban
ner of protection to American indus
tries, sound money. Whatever may
happen in the future Baltimore and
Maryland will be safe in the Republic
can ranks.
How Senator German will chuclSle as
he reads these scatter brain remarks,
Congressman Wellington, who was
chairman of the Republican State
Committee during the recent campaign
and is now prominent candidate for
United States Senator, speaks with
tho authority of the Republican party's
authorized representative. And yet
he claims for his party the entire credit
for tho overwhelming overthrow Of
Democratic boss rule in Baltimore and
Maryland last month. He utterly re-
pudiatcs the large body of independent
Democrats who voted with the Repub-
licaus for this purpose, and without
whose aid the Republicans OF Mary.
land would today bo in a hopeless
minority.
Such talk is calculated to drive these
independent Democrats back to the
Democratic party, while it is still
under the control of German, and thuI
strengthen his leadership, instead o.
continuing their revolt until he is com
pletely dethroned. The Republican
leaders of Maryland should muzzl,

Alinn q. Thurman.

The news Of the death Of Allen G.
Thurman was received with deep regret
throughout the country. And in no COM
munity outside of his own home did it
appeal more strongly as sense Of
personal loss than in this State.
The affections OF the Democratic vot-
ers of Delaware were strongly linkod
about the ''Old Roman" from associa-
tions that were almost local. Side by
side with our own Senator Bayard he
took the oath as United States Senator
on the 4th of March, 1869, and for
twelve years these two splendid advo-
cates of true Democratic principles
stood shoulder to shoulder, leading the
fight against the tyrannical usurpa-
tions of the strong Republican majority
in Congress that marked the exciting
period of reconstruction. How grand
was that battle, and how it was eventu.
ally crowned with success, are matters
of history still fresh in the minds of
the present generation.
But it was not altogether as Demo
cratic statesman of commanding ability
and powerful influence that Senator
Thurman was known TO ard loved by
the people. His sound integrity and
thorough honesty, combined with the
finest qualities of mind and heart, er,
deared him to men of all political opin-
ions. He was sturdily honest, ant
throughout long and honorable pub
lie career the shadow of official corrup
tion never even lowered near him. Ill
did not get rich in Congress. Not
penny OF public money, Save the salar,
that was his honest due, ever touched
} his fingers.
1t is great tribute to the memor.
Of man like Allen G. Thurman, VIII,
passed through so many fierce partisan
contentious in Congress, that his politi
! cal opponents ever entertained for hin
the highest personal respect. Ed
munds was his intimate friend, ant
Blaine, in his Twenty Years of Con
, gress," thus refers to the "Ol
! Romans" Senatorial career; "Mr
l Thurman's rank in the Senate wa
established from the day he took hi
q seat, and was never lowered during th
y period of his service. He was an ad
!; niirably disciplined debater, was fai
r in his method of statement, logical i
his argument, honest in his conclusions
He had no tricks in discussion, n
r catch phrases TO secure attention, bu
g was always direct and manly. His re
t tirement from the Senate was serior
: loss to his party--a loss, indeed, TO til
s body"
r Death levels all animosities, but tn
r tributes that are now being paid
f, Allen G. Thurman are not mere matter
: Of perfunctory praise. They are heal
a utterances, inspired by sincere admir-
| tion. lie was public servant OF

II is safc to assert that all of the G29
Republicans who signed the petition
asking the Republican county com
mittee to kick Robert j. Handy, Ad.
dicks right hand man, out of that Or
ganization, voted for Robert j. Handy
for State Senator at the election last
year. Some of them went so far as to
subsequently attempt TO discipline
james G. McComb because he failed to
support Handy at the polls. Who was
wrong then, MIR. McComb, or the 500
Republican dissenters? Certainly Mr..
McComb was right, or these G29 Re-
publicans are all wrong now. Mr.. Nc
Comb took the proper course to accom-.
plish what the 629 Republican dissent
ers say they now desire to have done.
The way to beat Addicks is to beat the
Republican party.

MR.. DIXON ON TAmMANY.
The New York Preacher Says Ihat
Tammanv Will be Downed Sure This
Times New Church Venture.

Rev. Thomas Dixon after his lecture
last night was seen by NEWS AND OBJ
SERVER reporter and was just touching
bit on politics He said that for the
first time in twenty years, the reg
istration laws were being enforced III
New York city: that in the Tammany
districts, therefore, the registration nao
fallen off, whereas up town, the regis
tration had increased. Mr.. Dixon did
not think there would be any marked
difference in administration resultant
from this, but he thought the great point
would consist in the moral vic
tory. He spoke of the divers factions
at work in the city, specially the factions
in Tammany that were warning against
one another.
Mr.. Dixon is getting his church going
we'll, the services being held IN the
Academy of Music For this he has %
paw 81, 900 a year rent, and every Sunday
he has g, 900 people to hear him. The
collections from this crowd will average
from about 5000 to $3.50 Sunday. But
it is on the increase, yet, for that matter.
his pen is in good demand at good prices
any time he wants TO write, and his lee
lures are well paid for.
One of the trustees OF his church is
4. B. Wheeler, who writes over the
well-known nom de plume of Nym Grin
kle-easily the most fluent and versatile
newspaper writer in New York city. Joe
Howard is not in the same class with
him.
An annex to his church has been
established on 14th street, where a
whole handsomely furnished floor
ia at the command of the members.
Interesting meetings are held there, and
Mr.. Dixon is pushing the work along
with his characteristic vim. He wrote
two letters the other day to two distin-
guished men just as starter; one OF
them enclosed check by return mail
for 5000, and the other for 800 to go
toward the further QUILTING of the
rooms.
Mr.. Dixon's home is in Cape Charles
City, Virginia, he preferring not to raise
his children in the close quarters of New
York city. This is the preference of
Mrs. Dixon, also, who is quiet and do
mestic in her tastes, and who, though
cultured to charming degree, finds her
chief pleasure in the sweet and spacious
surroundings of Southern home life.
