fierce mustache is the champion for

after Senator John Pyle's half. When

exactly how many votes were cast for me.
was nominated beyond doubt. and the
figures as returned will prove it. Yes, said
the questioner, but there is talk Of throw
ing out the returns and ordering new
election - Well, l don't think they will,
said lhe Senator, j know thing or two.
1t begins to look as If the Senator knew
what the was talking about, for during
the meeting of the Tx ccutive Committee
held yesterday he still had 10S majority
with The Second and Eleventh wards
thrown out.
Edward H. Cochran, Jr.. was busily en-
gagged yesterday morning in going over
the returns from the nomination election
held on Saturday afternoon by the Demo.
Gratis. He had IL tally sheet in front OF
him and was industriously engaged In
marking the figures of the different candi-
dates from returns made by the different
inspectors. He had nothing to say about
the financial result of the Pyle-Stayton
matter. Saying 1t would be settled by the
County Executive COMMITTEES.
Mr.. Willard Salisbury was out OF tho
city on Tuesday morning. 1t was said he
had gone to consult with several members
of the Democratic County Executive
Committee residing outside of the city.
Willard is against John Pyle because he
cant control him, which is tho kind of
man the people want to represent them in
the Legislature, Ii 1t must be Demo-
crat, John Pyle is rs honest and trust
worthy as any man the Democratic party
can send.
The rumor is again current that Messrs.
VIM. G. SpruunCe and Manloye Hayes
each had letters written to them to get of
the Republican ticket as Presidential
electors, 1t has been denied again for the
third time. We don't know how such
rumors get out but they do, all the same.
Tho Republican County Committee are
nicely housed in the three story dwelling
No. S3l Market street, with Mr. Hugh
Browne and Mr. Fred Il Bach on hand to
answer all questions and keep the Repub-
lican voters in the straight and narrow
path of Republicanism.
Tho Addicks headquarters is at .S3b
Market street nearly opposite, and is not
yet put in order, but carpenters arc busy
getting IL in shape, when Mr.. Stansbury j.
Wiley, Howard Staats and Others will be
i'll attendance to keep what Republicans
come their way in life and cheer them on
their weary way.
Tho Catholic voters have not yet got
their bearings, but they are determined not
to vote for Ebc Tunnel for Governor. 1t
looks US if they are determined to vote for
Hofecker and Willis. If ono thousand of
them do as they say New Castle county
will give handsome Republican major.
ity.
Now the people have chance to pay
their respects to Mr.. John L. Dickcy rs he
is IL candidate for tho Legislature on the
Democratic ticket, He expects to be elect
cd and have several hundred votes to
spare. We hope his expectations will not
be realized.
The Wilmington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Record says the Higgins
ticket in New Castle county will be with
drawn before October. He is only the son
OF apoliiiCai prophet. Still he has way
of torccasting the future
Robert Handy called at the REPUBLICAN
Office this morning lie is not saying
much, wearing a ten by twenty smile on
his smooth shaved face. Ho is always
hopeful and predicts IL sweeping victory
for the Republican party in November.
Politics is beginning to show itself on
the surface and tho politicians arc begin
ming to get into the game, From now on
until election day the llo',ter, will be
watched aud looked after BY those who
have this queer specimen Of voters on
hand.
Delaware has plentiful supply of the
kind Of voters who Hrc sitting on tho fence
waiting to be paid for their votes. Tho
down State politicians can blame them
sr!yos for such state of affairs As they
sow 50 Shall they reap and thus have the
AddiGks licutcnants been able to reap the
fruit of those who have gone before them.
General Wilson is sanguine OF Rcpubl
can success in Delaware and especially if
the two factions get together.
The Addlclis headquarters are presided
over by business mon, tho Higgins head
quarters by lawyers.
