When Chairman Patrick Neary, CT
the Democratic County Executive Com
mittee, gives his word it is as good as
his bond, and so recognized by every
one. There is no Republican in New
Castle county who will say that Mr..
Neary ever dealt treacherOusly with
him. State Chairman Browne and
Chairmen Stewart and Knowles have
implicit faith in his promises, and not
one of them would for moment sus-
pect MIR. Neary of double dealing. Last
week il was agreed between the Demo
Gratis, represented 10y Mr. Neary, and
the Republicans and Addicksites, rep
resented by Mr.. Browne and Mr.. Stew
art. that there should he no peace Of
fcers appointed by either party for ser
vice at the polls. President Doud, Of
the Department of Elections, was APP
prised of the fact, and the conferees
called on Chief of Police Dolan and
made definite arrangements with the
Police Department to take exclusive
control Of the arrangements to pre-
serve the peace. The necessary steps
have been taken, with due rgard for
the rights of the respective parties.
Notwithstanding these facts, the Morn
ing News comes out this morning with
an article imputing to Chairman Neary
an intentiOa- to break the agreement 1t
is as uncalledfor as it is ungenerous and
impolitic, and merely demonstrates TO
what straits the Republicans are

We do not know what the officers Of
Kent and Sussex counties will do, Dut
we do know that if any PinkertOn or
other detectives make their appearance
lin Wilmington to-day and interfere
with the election they will find them
selves languishing behind prison bars
in the City Hall with no cne but Chief
Dolan and the turnkey to console
them. If the Democrats of Kent and
Sussex counties permit any Homestead
tactics of detective intimidation they
are weaker than we think they are.
However, when persons employ detec-
tives they do not usually herald the
fact to the world, and the proceedings
Of to-day will most probably show
that the story is but mere bugaboo
which will frlghten nobody, and, least
Of an. the Democratic election Officers

Sir: There has been but one person
tried al the Kent county court this last
week for furnishing money to
a certain cOlored man for
the purpose OF going before
the registration board to be registered,
at Fredenca. 1t appeared that the per-
Eon who furnished the money was a
cclored preacherof Frederica, and upon
such proof as was sustained to his
guilt by four Of five witnesses. One of
the most high and honorable citizens
CT the same town swore that he would
believe the cofored preacher upon his
cath. But the colored preacher was
tried and convicted by the law Of Della
ware, made and provided that. no per-
son shall or can be registered without

That Republican sound money circu-
lar was such. a mean, dirty, despicable
political trick That it will lose the Re
publican ticket hundreds of votes. The
Morning News says that the Demo
Gratis are wondering whence II
came. That statement is untrue. The
literary bureau Of the Republican Stats
Committee wrote the circular and had
it printed and distributed. 1t is in keep
ing with some of its past work, but
such schemes are always retroactive
and il there were any gold Democrat
in Delaware who was uncertain as 70

registered the county would easily give
a Democratic majority from from 300
to 500.

Amy Republican or Addiclsite, who
is n-t entitled to vote, need not presume
that Democratic election officers will
permit him to exercise the elective
franchise to-day in consequence OF
threats and intimidatiin. The men In
charge Of the various polling PLACES
are fortified by public sentiment ana
backed by the law. They will do their
duty regardless OF Republican threats,
and any man who attempts to intimi-
date thsm will find himself in a des-
perate situation which may emu IN a

FoR TaTE slAglR OF ENFECr.

For the sake OF effect ex-Chairman
Frederick Eden Bach has changed his
tune materially within the past twen-
ty-four hours. No doubt he was ac-
cused OF treachery and had to do some
thing to satisfy his few friends that ne
was loyal to the ticket In Republi-
can Glasses in the Sunday Star he
placed the Republican majority in this
county at 100. On a street car he was
heard to tell a friend that the vote IN
New Castle county would be close, and
that the Republicans at best would not
have more than 100 majority. In an
interview in the Morning News this
morning he claims a plurality Of 1000
vote in the county. These facts show
that there is absolutely no reliance TO
be placed in anything which he says,
particularly at the eleventh. hour Mr..
Bach is believed by both RegularRepub-
licans and ,Addicksites to be a traitor
Ever since the Republican state con-
vention refused his demand that Rev.
Jonathan S. Willis be nominated foI
Congress he has been hanging back in
the harness and sulking. When he
said to a personal friend on a street
car that the Republicans would moi
have more than 100 majority in New
Castle county it was perhaps a true
expression OF his opinion, whatever II
is worth but when he gives out an in
terview hn the Morning News anC
claims everything within sight there IL
absolutely no reliance to he placed il
his words. The same may be said o
the oleventh-hour utteances OF Stat,
Chairman Hugh c. Browne, STATE
Chairman j. Frank Alice and Chair
man Daniel Il. Stewart. They know
that the day is destined to go agains
them, and, for the sake of getting al
many votes as they can, and putting
as good a face as possible on the mat
ter, they are making most preposterou
claims, and there are those who be
lieve what they say. Delaware is Demo
cratic and this is Democratic Day.
