~. Territorial Expansion.
At he NEE ing Of the NJ. II. Preachers
A Association in Union Church ON Monday
morning, Rev. J. W. Falsely read an inter.
ssting paper opposing territorial expansion,
on the part Of ,hs United States. In the
discussion which followed several minis.
tsrs expressed themselves In favor OF our
Government retaining control Of the Phil
ippines, in order to protect the people from
che cruelty of Spain and not for the purpose
Of addn. to our territorial possessions.
Our country having got hold Of the is
lands find 1t difficult to retire with safety
to this people and therefore SPANS inter-
ests have become secondary o1nsidera-
tion. The citizens Of the Philippines de-
servo protection and they should receive
1t at our hands. After the establishment
OF a government able to protect the PEG
pie 1t will be time enough for our Govern.
ment to withdraw her forces.
NOBODY but fool or an ignoramus evor
had any doubt how John Henly HofYecker,
tho Republican candidate for Congress
stood on the money question, lie does
not believe in any rs to ratio as does his
Democratic opponent, Congressman Han
dy. Mr.. Hoffecker said In his speech made
at the Republican meeting held In the
BJou Theatre on Saturday evening last
shat no should be elected to Congress. that
he would claim to be recognized rs be-
longing to the sound money party. The
polls will close at 8 o'clock this evening
and will shoy that the majority of the
citizens Of Delaware prefer John Henry
Hoffecker o l. Irving Handy.
DELAWARE will in all sincerity redeem
Itself to-day. Every candidate on tho Re-.
publican ticket should DO elected. Theirs
can be nothing said against any one of the
men running on the Republican ticket
and as the Republicans are in tbs majority
as shown by the registrars lists the out
come should be all that has been wished
for In years by every Republican Of he
State OF Delaware, No self respecting
Democrat who favors hard money can this
year cast his vote for the free silver candi-
date Congressman l.. Irving Handy. The
