MONDAY. JANUARY rs. 1897.

ALL tho talk about fraud and all tho
laws bearing upon that subject where
allot boxes have knowingly been stuffed
with ballots and where mon holding the
elections have paid no regard whatever to
their oaths. giving candidates votes that
did not belong to thom and throwing out
other votes under all kinds OF fimsy pre-.
texts, and yet when the thieves are indct-
ed, they are allowed to go free without so
much as oven a trial. Are tho people for
ever going to submit TO being cheated out
OF their rights? Are they forever going to
stand placidly by and see themselves shame
fully cheated another victories turned
Into defeat by the willing tools Of the
Democratic party? The frauds already
laid baro by the recount of the votes polled
ct the last election in New Castle county
for representatives show how the returns
have for some time past been manipulated
by men who should be doing time in New
Castle jail. When thieves fall out, 1t has
always been said that honest men get their
dues. So, the Democrats having fallen
out by cheating one of their own party,
pretty Kettle of fish has been kicked up
and from all accounts, Mr. Woodward w.
Cheairs will take the scat wrongfully oc-
cupied In the House of Representatives by
Mr.. John 7. Dickey of this city. The
steal did not 60 worth cent when COM
United against follow Democrat, but
when done against Republican, there
no redress they had to submit to the
Inevitable. This is the kind Of govern
ment the Republicans of Delaware have
had to submit to for years. All the hue
and cry made against the corrupt prac-
tlces Of Mr.. j. Edward Addicks and his
friends purchasing votes, Is nothing COM
pared to the steals that have been going
on In our State for tho past thirty years.
The Republican party has had no redress
to right their wrongs. Even the courts
have been against giving the Republicans
Justice when the elections have been in
their favor, but the count against them.
Now let the Kent county ballot boxes be
opened and let the people of the State yea
Of the United Statos, see to what inrnmy
the Republicans OF Delaware have been
subjected by the "honest" Democrats,
the party that cries out against vote buy
ing and the party that excerpts and con-
dones any oifense committed on election
day in the name of Democracy Shame
Oh such mon, who pose as honest men and
good citizens! With the result of the
count made known, now about finished at
Dover, Mr.. John r. Dickey will forever be
relegated to the background in Delaware
politics. He played his hand and lost
He has been foolish in ever accepting the
office. He knew better than any one else
he never received a majority of the votes
cast He turned down the wrong man,
and he, being a Democrat, had friends
enough in the Legislature to SEQ that he
had n fair and honest count. The game
Of politics, when played honestly, has its
dark spots but when dishonesty is at
tempted at every election, the bcncticiar-
les are sure to run their gauntlet and fetch
mp sudden, like our friend, honest John T.
Dlckcy has, in this contest with Chears.

~
THE fight Is on at Dover once more be-
tween the salisbury and wolcott factions
Eight years ago the fight was so bitter that
the lection ~ the Senate Of ex-senator
Anthony Higgins was made possible. Now
the fight IL as bitter as ever, having crop
ped out In the Cheairs -Dickey contest case.
When the Democrats fall out, then only
can the Republicans expect to get their
just dues in Delaware. Shame on such
methods as have been employed In this
contest for supremacy by the Wolcott and
Salisbury factions 1t begins to look like
Willard Salisbury or nobody. this time. :
EVERY person who knew Charles c.
Moore, who for years held the position of
head salesman and buyer for Adams &

death, which took place in New York on

visit to purchase goods for his house for

around, taking birds eye view, as it

for the Wilmington politician.
