To Our Correspondents


To put two columns of matter in one
column of space is often the difficult task
that confronts the TRANSCRIPT on Friday
mornings, and if our regular correspondents
would send in their weekly news letters on
Thursday morning instead of a day later,
much of the difficulty would be obviated,
and We would be spared the very delicate
task of cutting" our co respondents and
they themselves would be spared the trial
of having their contributions mutiliated by
the ruthless hand of the editor. who is so
discriminating and mercenary as to give
space to an advertiser who comes late in
stead of the correspondent whose letter
might have come earlier. We want the
news, all the news and the latest news es-
pecially, but we are convinced that our
weekly letters could, for the most part.
reach us day earlier, and If there are any
items of interest day later, send them on
in addition to the first letter. The adver-
tisements are the very life of newspaper
and we cannot afford to neglect our adver-
tisers even for the best of correspondents.
We sympathize with the latter in their
chagrin and dismay at seeing. what to
them. was the best part of their contribu-
tions, left out, and the surgeons knife is not
used with greater reluctance than is the
editors blue pencil upon certain letters
that are among the weekly contributions
to the TRANscRI PTS budget Of news. To all
such we say come earlier, and you'll fare
better, but if you cant come early, come any
how, but don't scold if we "cut" you.
Middletown transcript., 1896-10-31
Let the Law Re Enforced.

The present time appears to US as par
ticularly opportune one for the overthrow
and destruction of the system of political
bribery in Delaware. The purchase of votes
in this State on election day has steadily
grown for the last 80 years until it has
reached enormous proportions. The evil
has reached such magnitude that it has
tainted every election, and no longer is the
question raised in matters of government
What is the will of people. but How much
money will it require to: buy an electiona
Under such system the principles of good
government, able and honest candidates
have little consideration; all are subordi-
nate to money, which, instead of manhood,
rules. Purchasable votes determine the is
sue between parties.
All understand the evils of vote bu
+ in general way, but we are inclined to
the belief that few see the matter in its
great enormity, because by long know
ledge of the evil it has become to be looked
upon as matter of course.
There are hundreds of men in all parties
who deprecate the evils of buying votes
but who have not the courage to move
against the monster Let such combine
now. The evil must be destroyed or de-
cent government will fail. The time is OPP
perfume for its destruction Within few
weeks convention is to meet for the pur-
pose of formulating new State Constitu-
ton. Let this convention not feel that it
has been chosen by purchased votes, but
that it sits free to act for the people. With
a new constitution many political methods
will be changed. In the start afresh let
bribery be destroyed. 1t has increased
enormously of late; it must sooner or later
come to an end: Why not now? =
Instead of prating about the evils ofvote
buying, let those who disapprove of the
wrong combine and enforce the law. Let
Republicans and Democrats firmly agree
on this point and make their agreement SO
effective that the man who offers another
money for his vote will speedily find him
self in Jail, and his property, through the
fines imposed by the court confiscated to
the use of the State.-NeWs and Advers.

Dorothy's MuStn'ts.

Dorothy's Mustn'ts.
Pm sick of "mustn'ts' said Dorothy D.;
From early morn till the close of day,
hear "mustn't' and never "may."
It's "You mustn't lie there Ikea sleepy head"
And, "You mustn't sit up when it's time for
bed;"
"You mustn't cry when comb your curls;;"
"You mustn't play with those noisy girls;"
"You mustn't be silent when spoken to-"
''You mustn't chatter as parrots do;"
"You mustn't be pert and you mustn't be
proud"
'You mustn't giggle or laugh aloud"
"You mustn't rumple your nice clean Dress"
'You mustn't nod in place of yes."
So all day long the "mustn'ts," go,
Till dream at night of an endless row
Of goblin "mustnts," with great big eyes
That stare at me in shocked surprise
Oh! hope shall live to see the day
When some one will say to me, "Dear you
may"
For Pm sick of "mustn'ts" said Dorothy D.;
Sick of "mustn'ts" as can be.
