The Wilmington daily Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1890-1902, 1896-11-16

The Philadelphia inquirer euitoriaily
says;
tiers, all but one of them commencing 1t
for its review of the unfortu nate political
situation in Delaware, the other taking
issue with it. We do not propose to open
our columns to "a discussion between The
Higgins and Addicks adherents, for to be
perfectly fair to both sides the full debate
In the St. Louis convention was given.
This debate shows exactly this;
The Addicks people won last summers
convention and elected national delegates
No genuine attempt to dispute this fact
was made. The Higgins mon were seated
by the National Committee and later by
the Committee on Credentials on the plea
that Higgins was better Republican
than Addicks.
Now, all this may be, but that was a
question for the Republicans Of Delaware
to settle among themselves, not for a com
mittee that might have boon prejudiced.
No committee has right to go behind the
will of the people as expressed at the bal.
lot box, hence we say that the throwing
out of the Addicks delegation was crime,
and the Republicans of Delaware have so
decided at the recent election. But for
this crime Delaware would have elected u
Republican Governor,a Republican Legis-
lature and Republican Congressman:
We are content to leave the settlement of
the controversy with the people of Dela
ware. They will know where to place the
blame.
We repeat that we have no personal in
tercst in either Higgins or Addicks. The
vote shows that Higgins ought to have re
Trained from running ticket of his own.
But that Is neither here nor there. The
crime committed at st. Louis has borne
its fruit and It is now history.

It has been charged time and again that
Mr. j. Edward Addicks had purchased
the support of the REPUBLICAN. We will
present Mr.. Fred Eden Bach, the writer
of the Republican Glasses in the Sunday
Star, or any other person, with $500 for
any evidence whatever where the RFruB-
LICAN has received any nancy, directly or
Indirectly, for its Support for any man or
party. We deny the accusation and leave
the public to judge between the owners Of
the REPUBLICAN and Mr. Fred Eden Bach.
We supported Messrs. Huifccker and Will
lis, because VIC considered them the regular
nominees of the Republican party. We
considered that they Were fairly and hon
estly chosen by the majority of the con.
vention sent to Dover by the Republican
party of the State of Delaware We were
honest in our convictions and would do
the same thing over again, If we were
called upon to exercise our Judgment in
the matter. We fought for a compromise
as long as there was any hope or show OF
the two wings coming together. We have
no one we wish TO punish and we do not
expect to be punished by any one for the
course we took in the lato campaign. Not
being seekers after Office, we had no per-
sonal ambitions to satisfy and had only
the success of the whole Republican tick
ct at heart, and we did all in our power
to help carry Delaware. All offices in the
State TO be filed by Federal patronage,
should be divided up So that they vii! not
help to widen the breach in the Republic
can party, but cement it together SO that
when the mayoralty election takes place
next June, u Republican will be elected
to fiji the Office. The people will not sub
nit to the counting out process that has
disgraced the primaries on more than one
occasion All such election officers will
be made to face tho courts and receive the
punishment they Will be justly entitled
to receive.

Bishop Coleman at Baltimore.

Rt. Row. Leighton Coleman Protestant
Episcopal Bishop Of Delaware, preached
last night at old st. Pauls Church, Balti-
more, His tex was Give diligence to
make your calling and election sure In
part he said: -,
"rhere is nothing, perhaps, which az
fords surer test of the fitness and ability
of the principles upon which republics resi-
than that which is furnished by general
election. 1t brings into action dormant
energy and ntensiiles the energy OF the
most eager. 1t develops the most opposite
dispositions. 1t gives vent to discomfort
and ambition of every sort. 1t arrays rae
ton and party against each other, and sets
loose a horde of forces OF most uncertain
quantity and direction.
AT times it seems as IL every principle
we hold dear is on trial and that the very
life of tho nation depends upon the result
of an election. There being so much at
stake, it is sad that it is difficult, to be as
sured of an honest election. Even when
there Is no fraud In making up the returns
there arc many who are influenced in their
votes nv motives utterly inconsistent with
thei, con cientiouS conv cti,ns

throughout the land And while fro

they should DO punished; if not, then
they should be discharged from custody.
