Higgins Tickets.

In discussing putting of Higgins
Tickets in each county the Milford
Chronicle says:
'"The plan of putting county tickets
IN every county, as outlined by Sena-
tor Higgins to a gentleman of another
state has been finally accomplished,
and the entire movement has resolved
itself into Democratic annex. When
election day comes the camp will move
its baggage over to the Democratic car
with possibly the exception of the
Presidential electOrs-and yet these
people call themselves Republicans.
Fine principled folks these; willing to
sacrifice a sOund-money congressman
and control of the State government
simply because their control of affairs
IN the Republican party had passed
from them"
The same paper in discussing the
high plane taken by the Union Re
publicans of Delaware says:
Every mOve-frOm the primaries to
the registration of voters, has been alb
solutely fair, open and honest in every
particular. No man or set OF men have
been misled, or sold out. The game
has absolutely been played fair. On
the other hand those Who want to
dictate for the great majority of voters
have met in secret corners ASHAMED to
parade their weakness and rebellion to
public gaze) lied, made false protesta-
tions of political friendship and stabbed
their political brethren what they
hoped would be death blows, and at
tempt to fuse with Democrats -
Smyrna times., 1896-10-07
A Salisbury Ticket.

The Democratic ticket nominated
last week at Georgetown did not send
any one away smiling, it is said, but ex-
Gov. Ponder. The Milford HcraLd
(indthus refers to it:
''The ticket nominated by the Demo
Gratis at Georgetown on Tuesday was
by no means satisfactory to many of
the old timers of the party, some of
whom are very bitter in their denun-'
Citations Of the method by which it was
made possible
The nomination of Mr.. Smith of
Ceder Creek hundred for the legisla-
tive branch of the ticket was a complete
showing under of the friends of Saml.
q. Fisher. Mr.. Smith is well-knOwn
business man of this town, n man of
good judgment, and would make a
good representative, but the friends of
Mr.. Fisher claim that he is not and has
not been a worker, and is by no means
entitled to such recognition.
1t is claimed that the ticket was put
up by the old Salisbury faction of the
party and is by no means the choice of
of the representative party leaders.
That it was the result Of finesse, and
will be severely cut by those who
felt they did not receive the recogni-
ton due them"
Smyrna times., 1896-10-07
The Steamer Elizabeth Van Solver.

The new passenger and freight
steamer of the Philadelphia and Smyr-
ma Transportation Company, the
Elizabeth Van Solver, was witnessed
by quite number Smyrna people at
her first appearance at the Landing,
and Judging from its build and accom-
mOdatiOns it is one of the best boats.
outside of the J. Z. Tygert, that has
ever run for the company. She is a
three-decked steamer, well built, and
draws about six feet of water. She
has capacity for 1876 tons and is
allowed to carry about 100 hundred
passengers. Her speed under good
wind and tide is 12 miles an hour and
she can make the run from the mouth
of the creek in five hours-seven hours
for the whole trip, Captain Geo. R.
Van Solver, the owner of the boat, is
in charge of the line. With the above
exception the crew is about the same.
as follows: Pilot, Malan H. Wright;
engineer, W. H. Sithens; fireman.
Mr.. Burns; clerk, Edward Curry;
mates, W. z. Lawson, Clinton Chase,
Fletcher GafTord.
The steamer Elizabeth Van Solver
is making three trips a week and is
carrying heavy freight. The new de-
parture of the Transportation Com
pany in making it a passenger line
will be an important step and so far
is meeting with approval, which will
become more popular as a cheap route
as the fact is advertised. H. B.
Grieves will carry passengers to and
fro for the company, the round trip,
including hack, $1.25; single fare,
rs cents.

THE speech of Senator George Gray
delivered last week in Wilmington
is a matter of interest to Della
wareans of all parties. The object of
senator was to demonstrate convinc-
ingly the weakness and the danger of
the free-cOinage proposition. Mr..
Bryan has declared that the financial
issue is the question of paramount i'm
portance in this campaign, and Sena-
tor Gray, therefore, makes it the prin-
cipal topic of his address. His dissec-
ton of free coinage is keen and search
ing, and no candid man who is honestly
looking for light upon this vital issue
will deny, after reading the speech,
that Senator Gray is justified as a
democrat and patriotic statesman in
condeming the Chicago platform. Mr..
Gray points out that this is not a ques-
tion of boiling, but of principle, and
he also adds that while acquiescence in
the will of the majority is usually
sound proposition, the majority cannot
control the convictions of the voter.
In his opinion the financial issue rises
far above mere party considerations
and expediency, while it can be easily
proved that the democracy at the
Chicago platform is not the democracy
of Jefferson, Jackson, Tilden, Marcy
and Cleveland. Mr.. Gray discusses
free coinage not only with great
thoroughness, but he states his argu-
ments so clearly and simply that they
can be readily understood by the aver
age reader. The Senator's high char
acter and his commanding position
among the exponents of true demo-
cracy will add weight to speech which
is one of the most effective discussions
of the issues involved in the present
campaign. The Senator however in
the onset of his speech announced that
he should support the State ticket and
Mr.. Handy for Congress though the
latter endorses Mr.. Bryan and the
Chicago platform, causing the Will
mington papers to designate his posi-
ton as to the candidates, a straddle.
Smyrna times., 1896-10-07
The Election and the Republican Press.

To say nothing of the Morning NeUs
that under the control of Mr.. Hastings
in the past has been exceedingly facti-
onal, there are three Republican papers
the Middletown Transcript, Peninsu-
Tar Nc,OS, and SUSSEX RepubHcan-that
seem so be gloating in the prospect of
defeating the Republican ticket at the
election next month. They do not
stop at Mr.. Addicks Gn the Legislature
where alone he can reach his ambition)
but go for the Governor, Congress
man and most of the other names on
tickets. The Wilmington Republican
says it is fighting for the party, not
for or against individuals, and makes
the following declaration of adhesion
to party principles;
"There should be no halfway men in
a crisis like the present one, but every
true Republican should endeavor to do
his duty and make his vote count on
the right side. To organize and nomi-
mates merely to aid Democrats is as
puerile as it is babyish. Such action
should be discountenanced and dis
cOuraged. We like men of the build of
the late Jacob Moore of Sussex county.
When certain Democrats met in
Georgetown in 1861, to discuss the i'm
pending rebellion, and while pretend
ing to be i'll favor of maintaing the
Government, declared with some quail
ticatlOns their readiness to follow their
State, Mr.. Moore shamed them by ex-
elalmlng; "Damn your ifs and butts.
l am for the Union, first, last and ali
tlme! OF suck stuff were partriots
made IN that crisis, and these are the
sort OF Republicans needed to day.
We want but one set of candidates in
each county, and those who advise
otherwise are not for the party but
against 1t. Think of this matter and
let all try and be men and not maleon-
tents.
.'Oh, says one, tive cannot abide
this man Addieks, he is an aspirant. an
9pstart, usurper, and must be put
down. Well, it takes more than
one man TO make quarrel. There are
other stubborn men besides Addicks.
VINO threaten to rule or ruin. Accord
ing to chairman Willey's statement
Addlcks has right on his side, and his
opponents are in the wrong. If this
be so his assailants should back down
and let the right prevail We should
then have peace within the party. The
truth is the whole struggle is one for
party aseendency, and there is no
principle about it, The old leaders
cannot bear to see the power pass out
of their hands, and hence like Sam
son they propose to pull down the
party temple, and kill their friends as
we'll as as foes in order to get rid of Adj
dicks. Such a course is neither wise
nor manly, and the men instrumental
in it will discover this before thew are n
year older. Even if Addicks should tbus
be forced out of the State the oood
obtained will not be realized for
generation to come. ~ "
Smyrna times., 1896-10-07
The Promise of Federal Patronage.

The Evening Journal of Wilmington
(dem) has the following comment on
the Higgins party and their effort to
either control or defeat the Republican
party:
''The regular Republicans as they
style themselves, are using the Federal
patronage dodge in their efforts to hold
their men in line, )" said an Addicks
lieutenant to an EUening Journal re-
porter this morning. '"Ihere is not a
post office in Kent or Sussex county
that has not been promised to from
twoto three men. The janitOrship of the
Dover post Office alone has been prom
lsed to six different colOred men in re-
turn for their support of the county
ticket. In Sussex county the principal
dispensers of this Federal patronage
are Cornelius P. Swayne, of Bridge
vile, and George E. Smith, of Laurel.
Smith is the man who offered Mr.. Ad-
dicks a foreign ambassadOrship if he
would withdraw from the senatorial
fight two year ago. In the Eighth
ward of Wilmington alone the regulars
have been forced to organize three diff
ferent clubs to keep their colOred voters
IN line. There are the Hugh c..
Browne Club and the Frederick Doun-
lass Club, and another. They are held
together by promises.
I'm reference to the electoral ticket
the National Committee has said with
in the past ten days that it is as i'm
pOrtant that the sound money Repub-
lican United States senator and con-
gresham be electors be successful.
Not so many days ago General James
H. Wilson and ex-senator Higgins
wrote to several members of the Nat
iOnal Committee asking them to use
their influence to have the committee
come into Delaware and interfere in
the factional fight, using their influence
against Addicks. They refused to do
it.
''The Higgins people claim to have
polled !, ZOO votes at the Sussex county
primaries, That is all rot. They did
not poll more than 200 and paid many
men twenty-five cents piece to vote
the ticket.
Smyrna times., 1896-10-07

AMBASSADOR Bayard, Senator Gray
and other leaders of the party desig-
mated "GOld Bugs" are being fouted
by the large part of the party who have
exchanged the sentiments as enunciated
in the State Convention against "coin-
age at any ratio" for the Free Silver
idea of the Chicago platform. If the
present temper exists, the days of
Messrs Bayard and Gray for high
places in the party are numbered, as
they will find. A New Castle County
democratic paper in referring to the
editor of EUery ECening-that the place
for him if he is honest is in the Re-
publican party-declares "He should
also take with him Bayard Tommie, the
junior, and his ilk-the silk-stockinged,
perfumed darlings who are too aristo-
cratic to associate with the Democratic
masses except as bosses"

BELMONT RACES.
Local Turfmen Contest in Five Different
Races.

Local Turfmen Contest in Five Different
Races.
Friday being bright and pleasant
day in every respect, a large crowd
turned out at Belmont Race Track to
witness some lively contests between
the favOrites of our local turfmen. The
race was really an impromptu affair
and outside of Leipsic, Smyrna and
vicinity there were no entrees but what
wouldn't be considered of local
nature. The admission to the grounds
We're free and it is needless to say
that the races were we'll attended.
There wer five different races for which
Ezekial Sparks was starter, assisted by
judges, Wilson Z. Cavender and A. D,
Maxwell, Many of the heats were
close and exciting. 1t will be seen
that the majority of the races were not
run out and of those favorites who
started as easy winners, were unfairly
handicapped by the entrees in the
second heat of the race by fresh con-
testants. Nevertheless those who at
tended saw some good sport. Follow
ing is a summary:
Smyrna times., 1896-10-07

THE storm that visited us a week
ago which was only a good stiff Equi-
nOctial here was very destructive else
where. Its course was right directly
through the centre of the United States
from Florida to the lakes. The worst
damage was done in Florida, cOmmenc-
ing at Cedar Kevs, where twenty per-
sons we're drowne1 . .reat deal of
shipping lost. Ia Florida, alone the
killed are estimated at 100, and the loss
Of property at 81, 1000, 900. A number
Of towns, as well as in Georgia and the
CarOlinas were Wiped out of existence,
while Virginia, Maryland, Pennsyl-
vania, sustained heavy damages. The
cotton crop in many places was still in
the field was vastly damaged, and as
many places almost entirely de-
strOyed. Sugar cane is everywhere
prOstrated and damage has resulted on
every hand. 1t is said that there are
twenty-five turpentine stills, with their
equipments, camps and teams between
Lake City and Cedar Keys, and not
one of these will ever run another
charge, all the timber being destroyed.
Smyrna times., 1896-10-07

ALL kinds of forces are at work
this year, as is evidenced in the many
conventions and many candidates. On
this subject the Philadelphia Record
says that nature herself seems to be
working this year to prevent the far
mers of the United States from COM
mitting the fatal folly of voting for
free silver. The sharp advance in the
price Of wheat, amounting to about 18
cents bushel in the last month, has

OCT. 5th-On Tuesday night of last
week the Epworth League held a social
at the residence of Mr.. J. Herman
Anderson. Although the weather was
quite stormy, the league turned out.
Many innocent games were engaged
in. Prof. S. H. Chambers recited
''LOst," temperance poem which was
richly enjoyed by all:present. The re-
freshments consisted of cake and cocoa
and there was a plenty for all. Every
body seemed happy, especially the
children.
The general talk is politics, and no
body seems to be just sure of how to
vote except the Addicks Republicans
and the Prohibitionsts.
