THE REAL ISSUE.

It is time that all Democrats in
Delaware be up and doing. This is to
be a bitter campaign, with much at
stake The State Central Committee
and the various county, city and hun
dred committees should get toworkand
make this a Democratic campaign of
the same order which used to give the
state ticket from 1000 to 5000 major
ity. If the gold Democrats want to
vote for Palmer and Buckner in pref
erence TO Bryan and Sewall, let them
do so. We are far more interested in
our state ticket this year than in any
national ticket that was ever put
in the field.
The fight in Delaware is against the
supremacy of Addicks lyoidl idludlu
ism, with all their attendant evils
Thousands OF Republicans, who arr
averse to seeing the state pass undei
such a yoke. are arrayed against him
and this is no time for Democrats q
be holding back because they wishe'
to sec this or that man nominated

Once let AAdicks and his follower
get control of the state and count
machinery, with the making Of tn
new State Constitution, and the issu
OF gold and silver will have becom
ancient history before the Democrat
will have an opportunity to again aC
minister the political affairs Of OF
state.
It is the financial policy of ]. EC
ward Addicks that every honest cit
zen OF Delaware should array himse
against. The election of Bryan an
Sewall, Palmer and Buckner, or Nj
Kinley and Hobart will not so nearl
affect us as the election of men pledl

IIIsr WHAT Is NEEnED.

We are pleased to note that City So
licitor Harman has at last placed in
the hands of City Council an ordinance
to present indecent presentation in
Wilmington play houses. II is not as
positive In some Of It's provisions as
the Law and Order Society would de-
sire, judging by some of its past dec
larations respecting this particular
branch of public evil, but still we fee
convinced that the society, having
many sensible men and women in its
membership, will be content with what
Mr.. Harman believes to be best for the
promotion and protection Of the mo
rality of Wilmington playgoers.
1t is not necessary to make q pla.
indecent In order to draw a house. Th
greatest and most poular plays upoi
the boards to-day are those which ar
most beautiful and chaste in thei
lines. The playwright who resorts to in
decencies, and the actor or actress whC
interprets them are a disgrace to the
profession and a menace to public mo
rality.
The license of the stage has beer
shamefully abused of late years, ant
the sense of public decency shocked Sc
repeatedly in our theatres that It il
almost dulled. An ordinance OF the
kind suggested by the Law and Ordei
Society and modified, framed and sub
mittetd by the city solicitor is jus
what Is needed in Wilmington. Il viii
benefit the public, and give the theatri
cal managers reasonable excuse L
eliminate all lewd features from tn,
plays which come to the city.

IRELAND AND THE TORIES.

There are evidently 10 be some ex-
traordinary changes both in the eco
nomic and the political condition of
Ireland, and a Conservative Govern
ment Will have a large share of the
credit for bringing about such a re-
suit. 1t is already clear that Lord
Salisbury intends, if he can, to force
the Irish landlords in the House of
Lords to an ultimate though ungra-
cious assent to the provisions of the
new Land bill. These men angry as
they may be, will hardly dare go to
the length of driving him out of office
rather than submit. Their case, as has
been shown, is in some respects a hard
one; and yet any other way out of the
existing difficulties than that it is pro-
posed to take is practically impossible.
Sooner or later the tenant class must
become a proprietary class. Lord
Salisbury has resisted this conclusion
as strenuously as anybody, but the
logic of events has converted him.
Probably he allows Mr.. Balfour to
bring in his proposals for Outbidding
the Liberals with an i'll grace; in his
earlier days he directed much power
full invective against Derby's program
for "dishing the Wings" But times
with them The Irish landlords must
"go" and the less they stand upon the
order of their going the better for
them. This will bring about one of
the extraordinary changes for which
the Conservatives will get the credit,
though they certainly have not done
all the work.
Another sign of the times must be
looked for outside of Parliament This
is to be found in the meeting Of the
Irish Committee of which Horace
Plunkett is the active leader. Mr.. Plum
kett has succeeded in getting together
body of men Of all kinds and classes
in Ireland for the purpose OF talking
over matters and making recommen-
datiOns This committee is, as has
been said, unofficial; but it viii have
an influence in official circles which
should not be underestimated, and
there is every reason to believe that
the present government viii cooperate
with it cordially. Tory landlords, Ma
tionalists, Orangemen and Roman
Catholics unite In commencing a pro-
gram for the material advancement Of
the Irish people The features of the
program are not new. They are famil-
lar from the experience of France
Hungary and Wurtemberg. But the
significant and encouraging thing is
that they are presented by a truly rep
resentatiye gathering of Irishmen, who
politically differ as widely as the poles
'In the industrial regeneration of Ire
land" Mr. Parnen once said 1--WE
cannot spare a single Irishman." And
1t is quite likely that Mr.. Parnell knew
perfectly we'll that when Ireland was
industriaily regenerated it would have
no need of his Home Rule scheme.
OF course it will be said that some
of the recommendations of this com
mittee are Socialists. So they may be
in a limited sense But here again Il
is fair to say that Ireland is a coun
try in which the conditions demand
heroic remedies. Providence Journal

a Deer Island sea jockey. Within the
past ten years this sport has become
fairly acclimated in the larger cities
along the lake border, and the Turtle
Point international races, in which
the American yacht VencedOr was pit
ted aginst "a representative Canadian
yacht, is the first of an annual series
of contests designed to secure for
American boats on the lakes the SUI
premacy which they have maintained
on salt water ever since the victory OF
the America forty-iive years ago.
Up TO the present time, the Royal
Canadian Yacht Club has year by
year carried off the honors in fresh
water sailing, and the Canada, a new
boat built by Fife this year for the ex-
press purpose of retaining the cham
pionship cup, has already proved its
superiority in light breezes, having
won the series by defeating the Vence-
dor twice over a thirty-mile course.
Both OF these yachts are sailed on a
forty-five-foot load water line; but the
Canada has been constructed upon the
models approved for deep sea sailing,
while the American builders have adj
hered to the broad beam and long
overhang Of the earlier American
types of yachts. The Canadians have
little or no advantage in skilful sail
ing; but they have unquestionably the
better boats for speed, as their uninter-
rupted line of successes has demon
strated. There is no good reason, how
ever, why this local ascendancy should
be maintained in the future. Ameri-
can designers of fast yachts should
surely be able to perform for our lake
yachtsmen the service which Burgess
and Herreshoif so adequately rendered
to the volunteer cup defenders along
the Eastern coast.-Newark News.
