Is an orator of promising ability, and
his audience was held apell-bound by
his flights of oratory. which terminated
in a most telling climax
After reading a statement by Hon.
/ John NJ. Palmer to this effect, "For
myself | would prefer to live under
monarchy rather than submit TO such
principles as those declared by the Chi
cago convention" Mr.. Goldsborough
commented upon it, saying in part:
Mr. Palmer protests that he loves a
monarchial form better than he does

monarchy better than the Chicago De-
mocracy. And yet tho Chicago plat
form is emphatic In its endorsement
OF fundamental principles OF home rule.
II is upon home that all free govern
ment rests. Destroy that base, and the
jeweled temple OF republican freedom
will be dashed TO destruction. Destroy
home rule and you stihe the best in
stincts OF all freemen. And Il is here
wherein Mr.. Palmer arrays himself
against the proudest principles of De
mocracy. He overloOlSs the fact that
the preservation OF the home idea
means the perpetuation OF the most
ideal patriotism: he forgets that the
continuance and sacred guardianship
OF the most ideal patriotism means
the growth, expansion and eventual
conquest of republican nations through
out the world. It is in defence OF the
/ home that Democracy Is now battling;
Il is in defence Of the home that the
people are crying for William Jennings

homes. With the reduction In the NUM-

UNAUTHORIZED TALK.
So Chairman Wiley Charac-
terizes
THE COMPROMISE PROPOSITIONS


CEIvED A NEGATIVE ANSWER.
MIR. WILEY CANNOT SPEAK
FOR MR.. ADDICKS.
No proposition came TO us officially
touching any compromise concerning
the retirement of Mr.. Hofecker from
the gubernatorial nomination, or the
retirement of Mr.. Addicks from the
contest now going on" said Chairman
Stansbury J. Wiley, of the Union Re
publican State Central Committee to
an Evening Journal reporter this
morning. Horace G.. Knowles came
over to me and talked upon that mat
ter, but he presented nothing official,
and what he said was simply his own
individual views, as l understood them.
He came with no written proposition
that could be construed as a PROPOSE
tion, other than his own individual
views. He has been over here a good
many times talking about it.
did he say that he was authorized
by the Republican State Central Com
mittee to make those propositions?
asked the reporter.
HE did not" replied the chairman
did he lead you to that inference?'
NO" said Mr.. Wiley 81 can say
still further that on a previous occas-
ion at a meeting of the Executiy,
Committee of our State Central Com.
mittee, Mr.. Knowles appeared before
our committee and spent perhaps two
hours with us. DR.. George w. Mar
shall, of our committee. then asked
him If he came with Official authorit,
to make any propositions. He sale
that he did not. He desired that Ou
Executive Committee should NEE
theirs. We unanimously expressed I
willingness to meet their Executive
Committee, and Mr. Addicks stated tina
IL might produce some good. w
never met, and we have never hear'
from them since"
"Will Mr.. Addicks withdraw from
the senatorial flght?"
How do you know that Mr.. Addiclk
IS in the senatorial fight?" said Charlie
H. Kittinger, who was present. "Simpl
because he has said so"
The reporter did not think It neces
sary to go and get a copy OF the pro
ceedings of the last General Assembly
or to go over the newspaper files sine
then. Mr. Wiley broke the silence b.
saying:
'Mr. Addicks can speak for himself.
''Is Mr.. Addicks in town."
No" said Mr.. Kittinger; che is
New York"
The only official communication "
have received was from Messrs Spri
6nce and Hayes. and thst was IN wri
ing" said Mr. Wiley. THE rest wa
simply unauthorized talk"

ST. JOSEPHS LEAGUE MEETING.
FATHER WELBERS COMPLAINS OF
THE ONEROUS TAXATION OF ST
JOSEPH'S MISSION.

JOSEPH'S MISSION.
The Wilmington branch of st. JOS
ephs League for Colored Missions, met
last night at st. Joseph's Home, French
and Eleventh streets. Father Welbers
made a brief statement of the progress
of the mission.
Considering the financial depression,
he said, which has effected all inter-
ests, they might be grateful to Divine
Providence for carrying the institution
successfully through all these difficult
ties. One great grievance he could not
help pointing out, viz: That whereas
other charitable Institutions in the city
and state received aid from the public
funds, ST. Josephs Home for Poor Or
phans received not only no appropria
tion, but was even obliged TO pay taxes
amounting to nearly 5000.
The home and mission depends en-
tirely on charity. and he positively as
sured the members that neither Mother
K. Drexel nor any one else of that
charitable family, supported the home
At the end of his remarks, Father
Welbers introduced to the members
Rev. Father Hally. Father Hally, he
said. had been pastor for a number OF
years Of a large congregation in Salem,
Mass.
Upon his ernest solicitation he OBJ
tanned permission at last from Arch
bishop Williams. of Boston, to leave
his charge and devote the rest OF his
life to the evangelization OF the colored
race.
Father Hally then made a few re-
marks encouraging the members of the
league to continue their efforts in be-
half of the noble work The meeting
was a pleasant one except that a GER
tain gloom was cast over it because the
one who organized this work and la
bored with indomitable zeal, Father De
Ruyter, was missing for the first time
since the league was established
through his efforts. The meeting ad-
journed with prayer by Rev. l.. ]. Wei
