Now it is said the Kent County Demo-
Gratis have at last awakened from their
Rip Van w nok!e like sleep' They ale
r.ady and willing to effect compromise
with tho Republicans. Mr.. j. Frank
Alice should be seated in the Senate. He
received majority Of the votes cast at the
Into election.
1t is now seen that Mayor JcffGris was
responsible for the calling out of The
National guards, on tho night Of tho 9th
of November. There was no need Of their
s'rvices, but all the same the city had to
pay bill of $l22 for the luxury. There is
nothing like Democratic economy. Ii Mrs.
had suggested an investigation Of the po-
lice department she would have struck the
popular theme.
it is wel-known fact that one of the
Democratic Police Commissioners carried
around in his pocket for several days, the
resignation of one of the police officials,
who was then off 'ssick" In fact apolce
officer had been detailed as body guard
to see that tho ''sick" man did no one
any harm while in that condition.
sickness once in II great while is ex-
cusable, but when 1t happens rs often as
once every six weeks then strong dose of
the medicine called discipline should be
administered Treat all alike, should be
applied to govern the police force.
The writer OF this article was ut q hear
ing given II Republican police officer.
The charge was taking drink while on
duty and being off his beat without leave
from his superiors. Tho officer was rail-
roaded in strict non-partisan style and
dismissed from tho police force. We could
not have much sympathy for him, as 1t
was not his first or oven second offcnse.
But we thought the same kind Of disci-
pline should be meIed ont to some other
officers for the same otfense who are,
fortunately for them, not Republicans.
We have nothing against any police
officer on the force from the big chief
down to tho janitor but tho kindliest feel
ings foa these being Conservators Of the
peace. but we would like to see the disci
pline enforced by the Commissioners.
The writer of tho Democratic glasses in
the Sunday Star has something against
the writer Of the Political notes. He is
mad at us because we positively refused
to set EN- up to him, and this is the way
ne Is getting even with us, by the roasting
he gavo us in his Democratic glasses.
Sill Tom when you have fourteen men
calling for copy all Mt the same time, you
are more than liable to be driven to drink.
But when Daniel Webster has whole
week to write up his news for Il weekly,
why, he should be able to pick all of the
notes out of his fellow scrjblers notes.

The Afro American citizen is greatly
mistaken about Mr.. ]. Edward Addicks
being the master of tho REPUBLICAN.
This paper has no political master. 1t
wears no man q collar which is mor5 than
this weekly organ can say.
The REPUBLICAN has nothing to do with
the muddle o few colored men have been
trying to engage in with the Board of
Education for some time past We think
the colored people are being treated nobly
by the Board Of Education.
They have one of the most handsome

always been IL friend of the oolored people,
and has stood up for them when they had
need of a friend in the days of 1860. We
have not changed our ideas since in re-
gard to the colored race.
