SOUND MONEY DEMOCRATS MAY
PUT UP ELECTORS AND CON-
GRESSMAN.
There is a rumor aaoat, and gaining
strength every day, that the Execu-
tive Committee of the Honest Money
League of Delaware will. at It's meet
ing on Thursday evening, recommend
the placing In the political field OF not
only three sound-money Democratic
electors. but also a sound-money can
didate for congressman in opposition
to Hon. l.. Irving Handy, the regular
Democratic nominee, who is an ardent
supporter of Bryan and Sewall and the
Chicago platform. Some say that Sam
uel Bancroft Jr., will be urged to ac-
cept the nomination, but this is scout
ed by men who profess to know some
thing of the purposes of the advocates
of sound money.
The members Of the Executive Com
mittee are reticent, and profess to be
unable to state what course will be
pursued, but the delegates who went
TO Indianapolis returned home in such
an enthusiastic state of mind that
there is no telling what radical steps
will be taken.

ALLEGED TO BE A CONTINUAL
TION OF ITEMS OF INTEREST.
In the United States Circuit Court,
Philadelphia, argument was made, yes
terday before Judge Butler, on a mo-
tion made for the Consolidated Dental
Manufacturing Company, of New York,
for a preliminary injunction to re-
strain Alfred S. Robinson and George
f. Lasher, OF Philadelphia, from con-
tinuing the publication Of a dental
magazine, known as 'Welshs
Monthly"
1t was claimed that the complainant
last July purchased the periodical and
monthly publication known as Items
of Interest" formerly published by the
Wilmington Dental Manufacturing
Company and the latter's receiver, the
Girard Life Insurance, Annuity and
Trust Company, of Philadelphia
"Welsh's Monthly" it is complained,
is a continuation of Items of Inter-
est, and is identical with it, the only
change being a widening and enlarge

stances involved in the dispute were
submitted for each side. Decision was

right Of kings in China. Old honored
and rich as he is, III Hung Chang
knows that a word from his master
would end his life That fiat is abso-
lutte. It waits for no court or jury, it
allows no interference; It is all-power-
full, and this is a government of the
old-fashioned kind. The government
of Japan is similar, though more en-
lightened. That of Russia is not much
better. But throughout Europe there has
been a great change within the past
century, and kings are obliged to give
reasons for their actions to the people
whom they call subjects.
Apparently the first idea of govern
mentwas of the despotickind. Evidently
during Bible times the people had no
idea of personal liberty. Servants are
inculcated to obey their masters, but
masters are spoken Of even there as
superior beings. All old kings were
despots, and the idea Of a government
by the people is a modern one, COM
partively, introduced by civilization,
first into Rome where 1t was finally
oyerthrown.
In its modern and practical form,
government Of the people, by the peo-
pie first met with success in America.
II was brought into life by the inn
mortal Washington, who chose honor
to a kingdom What would Washing
ton have said if he could have looked
upon the recent interview OF which
we have spoken? If he had seen one
of the greatest dignitaries of despotic
rule craving an audience with one of
his official descendants-a son of the
people-he would have felt that he had
not lived in vain. With fear and
trembling, Washington fought for and
introduced a government of the people
because he knew It to be right. Could
he have foreseen that in less than
century and a quarter from that time
The despots of the earth would be do
ing it honor, bowing in the presence Of
his successor in office, it would have
delighted his heart.
Those OF us who so little appreciate
the blessing Of a government like ours
should remember the sacrifices OF
those who established il; should ap-
preciate the blessings it has showered
upon the people and their part to sus-
tain It forever as the dearest of all
heritages.

THE OLD AND THE NEW.

It was a singular spectacle when the
representative of the most autocratic,
if not the oldest, government in the
world called on the President of the
United States in New York. Mr.. Cleve-
land met the great Chinese mandarin
with proper dignity. though with cor
diality. but in his few words of wei
come he did not hesitate to state that
this was a government Of the people
and that it had fiourished and pros
pered purely as such. Ii Hung Chang
smiled and looked wise, yet if Mr.
Clevland, as a subject, had given voice
to words like these within the Celes-
tial Empire. what would have been the
result? This man who stood before
him, smiling and bowling would have
had him decapitated in the twinkling
of an eye. The life Of a Cninaman
who believed in personal liberty
would be worth nothing. The man.
DARN knew this and the President
also.
And what does all this mean? Sim
ply the difference between the old and
the new. No one questions the divine

BACON AND CLAYTON MUST
STAND BY THE REGULAR CON-
STITUTIONAL CONVENTION
NOMINEES.


STITUTIONAL CONVENTION
NOMINEES.
"On August 1 the Republicans of
New Castle county held a nomination
election to elect delegates to the county
convention to nominate candidates to
90 on the ticket as delegates to the
State Constitutional Convention" said
a prominent Addicks man to an Even
ing Journal reporter this morning.
'"That election was held all over the
county, and in st. Georges hundred
and in Brandywine hundred the Adj
dicks people took part. In st. Georges
hundred John NJ. Clayton, an out-and-
out Addicks man, was elected, while
in Brandywine hundred Walter Bacon
and Robert J. Handy were elected.
When the Second District Convention
met, the Committee on Credentials
struck out the name of Handy and
Clayton, but, IN the fight which took
place on the floor of the convention,
Clayton was seated and that left the
convention in the position of having
at least two Addicks men present and
voting The Addicks voters of those
two hundreds being represented, l con-
slider that they we're bound by that
convention, having sent their dele
gates to it,
"On Saturday the Addicks people
who held delegate election to name
Constitutional Convention delegates.
AS far as the Brandywine hundred dis
trict, in which Mr. Handy was con-
cerned, and the other hundreds when
did not participate in the election held
by the regulars, that was all well for
Mr. Addicks to hold his primaries. But
he was wrong in forcing east Brandy
wine hundred into Saturdays primar-
les because that district had already
been represented by an Addicks man
He has placed himself aud Mr.. Wiley
in the position of boilers, and, further
than that he places Bacon and Clay
ton in the position of being obliged to
vote for the regular Republican Con-
stitutional Convention ticket, which
they helped to nominate. 1 do not be-
lieve that they can be switched off
from their moral obligation to sup
port the ticket named by the first con-
vention, in which they sat and voted"
