The Union and Regular Republican
committees OF New Castle county met
here yesterday, the Unionists holding
their session at the headquarters at Fifth
and Shipley streets, while the Regulars
held their meeting at the Young Men 5
Republican Club, on King street above
Eighth.
Despite the fact that the two factions,
who were bitter enemies for the past
iour years, were SO near, but yet SO far
apart, both sessions, it is said, were IN
harmcny with each other.
During the day the meetings were at
Rnded by Hugh G. Browne, Esq, State
chairman OF the Regular Republican
Inres, and J. Frank Alice, State chair
MAN Of the Unonists.
The objects OF the meetings was for
the purpose of jointly selecting registra-
zion and election officers for the coming
election in November next and both Mr..
Browne and Mr.. Alice, stated that the
two factions had worked i'll perfect har-
aaony with each other and that Hot a
ripple occurred to stir the surface OF the
water that threatened at one time to en-
gnlf the entire Republican party of the
State within its greedy NAV.
Prominent party men OF the former
warring elements were in attendance
Srum all parts of the State and besides
abe completion OF the work named, plans
we're formulated for conducting the COM
mg TALL campaign.
1t was decided to hold the State coli
gention for the nomination OF a Con-
gtesslnan, State auditor and tate treas
aFer some time in September, but as far
as known at this time no one has slgnl-
fed their willingness to be an aspirant
byr the respective honors.
un Tuesday the first meeting Of the
alleged reunited forces was held at
Georgetown, Sussex county, and here a
ipnt session of the two committees ap-
pa,ently passed the day in social inter
ooufse and work-thc selection Of regis
sration and election officers.
The question as to which faction first
extended the olive branch of peace was
discussed and denied by the respective
committeeman and this muchly dis
cHssed query still remains in the dark as
Tar as the small iry are concerned.
RossibIy two Of the gentlemen who
could let this cat out OF the bag are Mr.
Browne and Mr.. Alice, bit they will not,
hN their lips are as sealed books when
this all absorbing question is put to
them.
En the meantime the Together

Club, or rather some OF its 'supposed''
members are enjoying the scene at a
Lhsrauce.
''Wherc are our erstwhiie leaders, Fred
