The Wilmington daily Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1890-1902, 1896-08-27


The other day we alluded to the fact
that Washington Hastings had been in
strumeptal in defeating tho Republican
candidate, George H. Tinuall for Council
in the Eighth ward and electing tho late
VIM. McMenamin and asked the question
# Hastings could be forgiven, why Senator
Handy should not also be forgiven Tor de,
fcating the election of a Republican to the
United States Senate We did not wish
to justify Handy, but why should we
make fish Of one and fowl Of the other
We say nothing against Mr. Hastings be-
ing received into goJl standing in the par
ty, but instead Of aspiring to lead lie
should be content to take II back seat and
honor. 1t seems that he really desires to
defeat the party now, AS he defeated our
friend Tindall Il dozen or more years ago.
1t was Charles H. Gallagher he was gun.
ming for when he defeated Tluuall, but
now it is the entire party he has in view.
He has gone to Europe 1t is true, for u
months vacation and 1t Ia II pity he had
not gone there three months ago
But 1t was not Washington Hastings
nlone who thus stabbed Mr.. Tindall in the
back. Several other prominent and hon.
orable gentlemen were parties to the
treachery and We are surprised that they
shall now talk Of honor and square deal
ing. The object however, we believe was
y
that they went on the principle that The
end aimed at justified the means. BY
such honorable tricks the Republican ln.
iority in our city was trttered away and
the city handed over to the DEMOCRATS Just
as 1t ia now proposed to give our State to
the Democrats to get nd Of Addlcks.
Who is to benefit by suoh IL Suicidal course

NEW CASTLE. August ~, 1885
The members of Friendship Lodge No. 8
| A, o. u. W., and about 200 friends last
evening sojourned to Cofleld Beach and
celebra ed the fifteenth anniversary Of tho
Lodge After giving the friends OF the
lodge chance to walk along the beach
the committee commenced the programme
by wheel-baIrow race between Orln Car
rick and Cofleld The latter won tho race
in two straight heats and WAS awarded
th prize.
In the sack race Ahern, Harrington and
Scratch contested. Harrington won the
final heat,
In the so yards dash, Cofield and Murray
lowered their coiors 10 John Thompson.
DR.. james Morgan was the orator Of the
evening In the course of his remarks he
dwelt on the workings of the order and
the safeguard it Is to the widows and chill
dren of members
He read the following original poem.
Oh, how we wish you ladies
Belonged to Friendship Lodge,
We'd show you how Mogullions
That long cared mule can dodge.
But woman can't be Mogu!ion
Eve often heard them say,
The reason Is, I've oft been told
Because she's not built that way.
But what's to stop woman
From knowing what we do
Who lays awake quite half the night
Listening to the lodge kazoo.
When her man comes home limping
She wants to know the rest
And he always tells the truth,
Because it Is the best
You can talk about your cycle rides,
Your picnics and your shows,
But night with old Mogullion
Would surely make you grow.
Even though you may wear booMers,
And look just like man,
Our Royal jack would know you,
And surely make you fan.
When you hear man SO loudly smile,
Like the explosion of gun
You just san bet your money,
He's bran new 'un.
Dear sisters we do greet you
With true Mogullion rule,
But we never shall permit you
10 be branded by our mule.
Rev. V. S. Collins spoke In a pleasing
strain about the notices Of the order; Pa
triotisn, Hope and Protection
Mr.. Cotlell had few words Of cheer
for the lodge and felt that the reunion
would help to increase interest in the
order. He also sang pleasing solo Those
present then made II rush for the plaza to
hear Mrs. Kate Pyle of Wilmington sing
the Bicycle song and other selections,
Refreshments were served in abundance
to all present, and the friends Of Frien,.

II o'clock wishing prosperity to the A. o.
U. W. Tho music furnished by the City
Cornet band was excellent.
As there are lots of idle men in this city
how would it do for the City Council to
let them work out their taxes in removing

Win the advent or funeral and many
other species OF reforms has come that
OF obituary reform. and as an example
OF what is possible in that line we display
a gem from the Bristol Times, which
reads as follows:
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Carter,
very old woman who resides on Chai-
mers street, and was known as great
beggaT. fen dead about one o'clock. she
was complaining ana was in bed at the
time OF her death. but had been up during
the morning. She made her home with
hcr daughter. and a. she raised 20 eat
her dinner death came suddenly
Now. this meets our ideas or what real
obituary reforms means. Here We have
the lady's name and approximate age.
her occupation. characteristics, abiding
place. and the manner Of her demise. all
sweetly condensed. and not much cal
culated TO narrow our feelings or wiring
from our unwilling eyes the copious tears
Of Geep distress.
we are told that she was very ola
woman. which shows how true TO his can

mat no matter how humble there Is no
limit TO the possibilities OF pecol''i"s

Now. the obituary writer, true 10 his
art. is compelled 10 give few persoi%l
characteristics. but he does it with con-
srmmate skill. She 'fell dead about

ness. her uncomfortable tel dency TO gruh

with the gloomy story the suggestion OF

II should cease. This Is strange conduct.

mand for the repeal Of the tax upon the
issues OF State banks-is growing, and
a timely and vigorous assertion OF It by
the Virginia Democratic Convention would
necessarily have had 4 powerful influence

attention to a subject OF such vital IL
terest to the south's prosperity. The
New York Times. which, II 1t has not
been an active enemy 81 the proposition
to repeal that tax on State banks, has at
least been no friend 20 II. Is now arguing
in substance that concession Of the re-
peal OF that tax is the best way to break
in upon the silver cohorts OF the South.
Many other journals that have been in
different TO the subject. where they did
not actually oppose the repeal, are be-
ginning to yield in regard 70 IT. This
was the chosen time for tho Virginia
Democratic Convention 10 make the voice
Of Virginia Democrats heard in respect TO
this vital matter, but not one word comes
from IL.
This convention will always hold n
