ABLY LOST IN A HEAVY STORM. Here
is What the ECery EUcning says of the
coming election: Voting in Delaware
means more this year than it ever did
before: Our elections are now safe
garded by the most stringent provis-
IONS against fraud or corruption of any
KIND. There is every assurance that
the result will be full and fair express
sion OF the popular will. Under these
conditions it should be regarded as q
pleasure. as well as a duty, to vote.
The costs of the suit which resulted
IN judgement against the Democratic
Inspectors, saddles upon each one of |
these poor men, who can ill-afford il.
a debt of about $3.50. Now let us see |
If their advisers will come to their |
relief IN their hour of distress. Let ms
see If they will be as ready with their |
cash as they were with their advice, II |
is a safe bet that they will be advised |
to repudlate or flee the State. The |
party that received the benefits of the |
steal ought in all fairness to come to
their relief and pay the bill.-ScntineL
