Candidates Jonathan S Willis and l..
Irving Handy candidates for Congress met
simultaneously in the Masonic Lodge
room. The occasion was meeting OF
the Grand Lodge and walking down the
room in opposite direc ions met near the
center and shook hands with one another
showing that the best of feeling exists
between the two rival candidates.
At Middlctown the Democrats showed
their good manners by distm bing "A
Republican meeting held on Thursday
evening, which was addressed by JOna-
than S. Willis.
Years ago men who addressed Republl
can meetings We're treated even worse
than the Single Taxes were treated in
Dover. That Is how the State by the aid
of its DISTINGUISHING laws has been Kept
Democratic But the emancipation has
taken place and the scales have conf
mencd to fall from the eyes of the voters
and they will vote IN November for plenty
of work and good wages paid to them in
dollars worth one hundred cents.
The demand for cutitling the holders
. to seats in the Auditorium this Saturday
evening to hear the Hon. Thomas B, Reed
is beyond the supply. The doors Will DO
open at o'clock, and Grace orchestra OF
II pieces, will be present to enliyen the
occasion.
1t is said that Higgins had to swallow
fish to let the Addicks people get II Reed
to lean upon and help along their orgHnl-
cation. IL is now complete and is doing
good work IN securing tax receipts Tor the
floaters who are too poor or don have am
bition enough to pay for their tax receipt,
and leave the necessary task to the party
managers to secure for them. The Demo
Gratis are having no trouble to ret all the
tax receipts they want. They are deliver
ed in blank aud in bulk, and Al! they have
to do is to fill them in.
James J. Tunner, at one time Il Canli.
date for sheriff On the Drmuclatic ticket
and defeated by Pierce Gould, and now
holding good paying position in New
York, is on here giving james B.Toman Il
helping hand.
1t is said that saventy-fve colored voters
in New Castle will cast their ballots for
james b. TOman. These voters need look
ing after by the gentlemen who are now
speaking before these same culornd men
who profess loyalty to the Republican
party.
The number of persons who called yes
terday at the Union Republican bead
quarters after tickets for the Auditorium
this evening, exceeded the supply by sever
al hundred. 1t is II pity that not larger
hall could have bteE procured, 50 that the
ten thousand persons who viii try Ia hear
Reed would have been able to have graft
fled their curiosity. Wilmington for II
city Of seventy thousand persons should
have a hall that on occasions would seu5
five thousand persons.
The report has gotten ont that some
men calling themselves Republicans will
cut Horace j. Rrttcw, candidate for Re-
ceiver of Taxes on the Republican ticket
There il nothing wrong with Mr.. Rettcw.
He is capable and would fill the position
with credit to himself and the party that
elected him. Every Republican can vote
for him, and never regret having done SO.
He Is Republican,, first, last and all tho
time.
The present campaign is one Of the
slowcst that has ever ,aken plaza in Dtl-
aware. No parallels, red fire and brass
bands. 1t is speeches, speeches, by every
body that can HrtiCulntc or have even
studied their primer. Th1 oratJtS that
are being made not having been born, is
something truly wonderful. The woods
isye full ofstunp speakers and political
greatness is now to be thrust upon them
If their particular party wins Ii not,
then their greatness ylul"he>
