Tho CruoInl nom.

There is much speculation as to the
factionsl complexion Of the six men who
viii represent the Republican party Of
Delaware In the National Convention.
Each county will send two delegates, and
1t is bat natural to presume that ex
Senator Higgins and ]. Edward Addloks
will take advantage OF so favorable an
opportunity to measure swords.
1t remains for Mr.. Addicks to say
whether factional lines shall be drawn at
this hrst OF several primary elections
which the party will hold this year The
Higgins men are already stating their
candidates for the delegation, and no man
OF Addicks leanlngs has a place upon The
slate. But two courses are open to Mr.
Addicks. He must let the prl mary 90 by
default or set up vigorous fight against
solid Higgins delegation. There can
be no compromise From this time ont
the Higgins motto is Everything or
Nothing
The question naturally arises. Can Me-.
Addlcks afford to les the matter 20 By
defaulti BE claims to be the Repub'icln m
leader In Delaware How much would
such claim DO worth In the eyes Of the
National party whan it baheld q solid
Higgins delegation In the Republican
National Convention ?
New Castle county will vote for Hlg-
gins delegates, for this is the Higgins
stronghold. In Kent and Sussex
counties there is no telling what would
be the result, but appsarancss on the
surface indicate that Addicks would
have the better Of the situation should
he see ft to take advantage Of It.
Higgins men will NOT concsie this,
however. They say that the Addcks
support has dwlndled to almost nothing
in.the two lower counties By reason Of
his action in deadlocking the General
Assembly last Spring just how much he
has suffered In Republican estimation Of
the Kent and Sussex variety by prevent
ing an election Is a question which even
Mr.. Addlcks cannot ansrer Bat he can
get his answer. All that he has to do ls
TO set up delegate tickets In tbs two
counties which he carried at the primar-
les In the Fall Of 1891. II tho msn OF
his selection win II Will be an end
ment Of his senatorial policy at Dover
last Spring; but, II they are defeated It
viii be a rebuke Administered ct the
first opportunity following the r publ
can disaster incident to that ruls OF iuin
policy II will be the crucial test OF the
tempef Of the Republican electors OF
Kent and Sussex counties regerilng the
man whose motto was "AddicSs or
nobody" when the question Involved
was the el,osi,a OF a q iltei ssasAs
Senator.
We cannot judge OF that tsmpsr by the
declarations Of the leader Of the rival
factions. Our only authority must nee
essarlly be the voice OF the Republican
electors at the polls. II Mr.. Addlcks
can carry Kent and Sussex coun-
ties for delegates to the Repab-
lican National Convention he can
carry them against ths Higgins faction
for governor, congressman, members OF
the General Assembly. delegates to the
Constitutional Convention and all other
friends Of his who may be selected by
him to run for the several Offices to be
filed ~ the general election.
