BErEBl.ICAN NOMINEES,


Republicans who desire to defeat the
Democrats at the election in November
should be willing to make some conces-
sions to accomplish that object. The
electors already nominated should resign,
the candidates for Congress should resign
and the candidates for Governor should
do the same, and permit denomination.
The same conciliatory course should bs
followed in regard to the candidates fOr
the Legislature. Each party should unite
on the candidates nominated in the usual
way and discountenance every effort +,
get up second ticket In either of thu
counties. If the leaders of the different
factions are unwilling to trust each other
TO select suitable candidates the matter
should De referred to the people and an In.
formal ballot should be taken for candi.
dates, and the parties receiving the greater
number OF votes should be supported. II
this or some other plan cannot be adoDtel
within the coming two months we fear
that our State may be classcd In the free
silver column, and the minority will CON
tlnue to rule for years to come as in the
past. United we stand, divided we fall"
The above course may be humlliating
but 1t will not be near 80 hunliliating as
will be defeat at the election and the con.
sequences that will follow. Those who
wish to conquer must sacrifice something
or they will fail. They may remember
the Old adage, Pride goeth before destruc.
tlon, and naughty spirit before fall"

SINGLE rAxER STEPHENSON.


Arthur H. Stephenson, chairman Of the
Single Tax Stats Campaign Committee,
aud who Is now a martyr to his politics In
Dover jail, yesterday said;
This movement for single tax started
in this place about a year ago. The only
object we haya in view Is to give to the
people the benefit Of single tax for local
purposes We are making great effort
to carry Delaware. This desire on our
part Is for two reasons, The State is
small, and owing to this fact we can cover
every part of 1t. Secondly, tho consttu.
ton OF this State does not prohibit the
trying of single tax.

we had no opposition and to-day Tor polit-
teal reasons this treatment is being in

THE REVIVAL OF BUSINESS.


That there has been some revival of
business since the result of the election
was known there is no denying. A pres
idential election always has a bad
effect on business and when it Is settled
there always follows d revival of it.
Whether the present revival is merely
temporary or shall prove to be per-
manent cannot at present be deter
mined. 1t is to be hoped that it will
be permanent and will continue to in
crease.
This revival of business suggests some
questions. questions of most vital i'm
oortance:
Is it owing to the defeat of free sill
yer?
Is the revival of business owing to
the prospect of protective legislation
consequent upon Major Mckinley
election?
Il it be owing to the defeat of silver
then there is no reason for the enact
ment of any legislation for protective
purposes. 1t must be plain to all, if this
is so. that there would have been no
business depression had it not been
for the agitation of the silver question
The assembling of congress in, extra
session in 1898 was for the purpose of
removing what was, in the eyes of the
gold men. a threatening danger, this
danger being the purchase clause of the
Sherman law. That clause was re-
pealed, but the repeal did not give the
relief predicted. If there was danger in
an agitation for silver, of course no re-
peal of any law, or clause of any law,
COLD avert it, That for which the
agitation was inaugurated and con-
tinued has been defeated. Business has
revived. Is the revival the consequence
of this defeat? If it is, protective legis-
lation would be but folly, as there can
be no necessity for it, even from the
protectonist point of view. and it
would but start an agitation that could
be nothing but detrimental to any ex-
tended and permanent revival of bust
ness.
If the revival of business is owing to
the prospect of protective legislation,
the absence OF such legislation and not
the agitation for free silver was the
cause of the great depression. Admit
ting, for the sake Of argument, that this
revival is owing to this prospect what
is the use Of the legislation, the revival
being so strong and so universal? AT
best there could be no such legislation
for months: and if there be no extra
session, then not for year and more.
The questions above propounded must
be met and answered by those who will
control the governments policy during
the next administration. All the ques-
tons that were before the people are
still unsolved, are still demanding So
luton. The result of the election has
merely made certain who shall next be
given an opportunity to solve them.

TO PROVIDE MORE REVENUE.

1t is said that Nelson Dingley, author
of the Dingley revenue bill, will imme-
diately set to work on new tariff bill;
along just what lines it will be is not
stated. If such is his intention then, it
is very plain that he is bidding for the
Craftsmanship of the committee on ways
and means, although his name has been
mentioned in connection with the
secretaryship of the treasury.
The Dingley bill of last year pur-
portd to be revenue bill alone. but in
reality it was nothing but ''feeler' on
the question of protection. 1t was de-
feated in the senate, and its defeat was
accepted as a matter of course
More revenue should be provided for
the government. This new DingIev
bill will doubtless include many more
articles than did the old one. If it shall
be a revenue measure, than it should
take heed of internal sources of revenue.
though that it will is not at all likely.
What opposition it would meet in the
senate no one knows. Senator Teller
has said that the course of the silver
men has not been decided upon, while
Senator Butler says that none of the
Populists will fight a revenue bill. 1t is
by no means certain that the silver SEN
ators will either
1t is an incongruity to rely upon a
high protective tariff for revenue. If
it serves its purpose as a protective
measure it should shut out foreign
goods. If it serves a purpose as a
revenue measure, foreign goods must
come in to produce revenue The true
protective policy would be to prohibit
all foreign imports and raise revenue
by internal taxes.
One thing is certain: the government
needs more revenue, and it is the duty
of congress to provide it.
