there has been question as to who has

The sheriff or governor can summon the

Delawarean communication In which
he gives his objections to the cumbersome
Australian ballot now used at our election.
He thinks both the ballot law and the

suggests the use Of the old time ticket Of

LET the good work go on. Let every
rascaIly Democratic Inspector be indicted
and given chance to prove his innocence
or guilt before jury of his fellow men in
the upper court. Try and indict the men
who put these men up to such dastaruiy
thing. They are the ones to be reached.
Teach these men and the men who Will
hold elections that they cannot violate the
law withimpunity. Teach them that they
can't reverse the will OF the people, for II
they can, what would be the use OF hold
Ing elections. Never was the law so open
iy violated in Delaware as at the late cleo
tion, and every man who took part in 1t,
even in Kent and Sussex counties, should
be indicted and given chance to purge
themselves of the charge OF committing
fraud. The men higher up in the Demo
cratic party in New Castle county are SAID
to be responsible for the attempted stea'
of the office of sheriff, There should be
no trouble to effect a conviction OF every
INSPECTOR who raised the figures On MS
tally sheet. Men should be taught tha6
they cannot tamper WIN Iue cieSV'"h 'e
turns after they have been once made out
and signed. Such rascally methods have
been going on for years and the D4mo-
Gratis, becoming cmboldened, have over
reached themselves the last time. The
citizens of New Castle county owe 1t to
themselves to sec that these men have the
law melted out to them to the full extent.
Then, If the Governor should dare pardon
them, he would be stencil IN the nostrils
of the citizens Of Delaware, irrespective of
party affiliations. No good citizen would,
for one moment, countenance the scenes
that took place at the Court House on last
Wednesday. The man who would be a
party to such transaction is not fit
citizen to be outside the doors of New
Castle Jail Let them be punished as they
deserve. Don't fail to try and get hold of
the men who aided and abetted the ras'
cally Inspectors and set the plan up that
these men attempted to carry out,

WASHINGTON, May G.-Julge J. a.
y Stevens, chairman of the Supreme
Judiciary board and of tho National
advisory board Of the A. p. A., which
will meet here next Tuesday stimuli
taneously with the National A. P. A.
convention, said to-day: 1.-The A. p.
A. will assuredly take a hand in the
presidential election. The part our
organization will take is not to ad-
vance the interests Of any particular
candidate. We are making this fight
for principles, and the ambitious in
dlvidua!s do not concern us.
mckinley is the very weakest man
the Republican party could nominate.
l am a Republican and a protectionist
OF the stalwart sort, but the objec-
tions to Mckinley are too vital to be
ignored. l can produce afidavits that
charge him with having said, while
governor of Ohio, that, while person
ally he had no use for a Roman Catho-
lie. yet it was necessary to cater to
that church, inasmuch as it was the
strongest and most perfect political
organization in this country and that
any party that opposed it would go
down. to certain defeat. No man who
is weak enough to talk like that is fit
for the White house. In my opinion,
his boom has reached it's zenith, and
1 have no idea that he will be the
of his party"

SCOTT jackson.

NEwpoRr, KY, May Tin thirty
Ave minutes after the noon rtcess yes
terday the defense in the Scott Jack
son case rested, just two weeks hav-
ing been spent in examining wit
nesses. The prosecution will nov be
engaged in rebuttal. 1t will not be
surprising if one or two cases of ger
jury should develop.
Colonel Nelson, for the prosecu-
ton, has been begged by John Seward
the detective, for mercy. Seward vol
unfairly came to Nelson and offered
to make a full confession to the effect
that he had procured Trusty to come
on the stand as a witness for the de-
tense, and had invented the testimony
which Trusty had made. Seward
made this offer with the request that
he be freed from punishment for his
acts, in reconsideration Of his confession.
The prosecution did not bring
Seward into court to make his expected
confession. They laid the foundation
for it, however, by recalling Trusty
and eliciting from him q denial that
William Trusty, ST., and Seward were
brothers-in-law.

in average from seventy-two in Cher

the entire State is ninety-seven per
cent But two or three reports make
allusion to the presence of ch1nch bugs
these being on the wing( and none
mention their doing or even threaten
ing harm, except in perhaps one
township, the rains and considerable
cool weather so far have been alto

everywhere the growth is unusually

proposition to accept the Senate
amendment to the naval appropriation
bill reducing the number to two. Mr..
Sayers, Democrat, Of Texas, ex-chair-
man of the appropriations committee,
made the motion, and in its support
argued that the question presented
was purely a business one, and he
appealed to the House not to allow
political matters to influence it's iudg-
ment. He proceeded to contrast the
appropriations of the present session
with the available
Mr.. Boutelle concluded the debate
with a brief p, otest against placing all
the onus of extravaganza %appropria-

vote was taken by yeas and nays. Mr..

and IN Mr.. Boutelle's motion the
House requested a further conference
