the judicial and executive branches Of
our State government have acquitted
themselves with credit, 90 will also the
Legislative branch. The first Legislature
elected under our new constitution will
assemble in Dover in January next, and
many matters Of grave interest to the
State will come before them for consid-
eration.
mo fear need be entertained OF their
action. What is best for the State, what
best promotes the interests of our citizens
at home, what will best replace Delaware
in her proud position in the nations e.
teem will guide our Legislators in their
deliberations. The will work with
single aim for the honor OF Delaware at
home and abroad. All must demand this.
The State honored by the deeds OF her
brave sons must not now be dishopored
by low standard Of political conduct.
The old flag must still float in pride. It
never has been lowered to an enemy; it
must receive no scars from our own
hands. BY our honorable conduct in
public and in private we must be able TO
salute with propriety the stainless Gag Of

The names Of men whose deeds OF fame shall e'er

meath il radiant glow,
But never did that ensign yield its honor to the
Its fame shall march with martial tread down
To guard those stars that never paled in fight on
land or sea.
Its stripes OF red eternal dyed with hcartstreams
of all lands;
Its white, the snowcappod hills that hide in
storm their appraised hands;
Its blue, the ocean waves that beat round Free

Its stars, the print Of angels feet that shine for

Mr.. Ross then introduced William
Simmons, of Philadelphia, vice-president
Of the Veteran Naval Association. In the
course of his remarks Mr.. Simmons re-
lated several anecdotes Of the naval en-

A CLEVER CAPTURE.
Three Men Arrested in Chester For
Stealing Boat at Claymont
IaSt .Tnly

Stealing Boat at Claymont
Last July.
Lewis Pierce, David Mcguire and
Joseph Maiden, were arrested in Chester
yesterday morning for the larceny of a
boat from William H. Danzenbaker, OF
Claymont, this State in July last.
On Tuesday Detectives Witsil and Nc
Vey, sent word to Chief of Police Berry,
of Chester, stating that the men had
been seen in that city.
Chief Berry, when he received word
that the men were wanted, set to work
at once to locate them. A description
was furnished the police officers, who
kept q sharp lookout for their appre-
hension. The men were located in a boat
house at the foot of Lamokin street.
Chief Berry sent Officers Griffith, Farmer
and Taylor to the place to arrest the
men. This the officers had very little
difficulty in doing. They were sent to
the Citv Hall in the patrol and locked up
for hearing, which took place yester.
day afternoon and they were committed
to Jail, pending the action of the Della.
ware authorities.
The stolen scow was twenty feet in
length and valued at $25.
Detective Witsil will 60 to Dovar this
morning for the purpose OF securing
requisition papers to bring the prisoners
here.
All three of the men bear unsayory
regulations and it is the belief of the
officers that they are the thieves who
have been looting boat houses in this
vicinity during the past six months.
The capture OF the men is regarded as
an important one and it is more than
probable that other charges will be pre-
fe,red against them when their casas
come up for trial.

SAMUEL BANCROFT, gentleman and jour-

famous Levy Court charges.
Samuel Bancroft has yet to furnish the
public with proof sufficient indeed with
any pretense Of proot-thas his four
charges against the members Of the New
Castle county Levy Court, crooked con-
tracts, miamanagement, maladministra-
ten and extravagant appropriations, are
true.
In view Of his dogged persistence in
suppressing the facts back Of his charges
10 it any wonder that people are calling
loudly that the charges are lies?

FROM Kent county comes the last act
Of the dying political ring which demi-
mated that county for so many years.
It is perhaps the most desperate at.
tempt at fraud in the maladorous record
of this gang.
Deliberate and open effort to place in
the hands of the voters in the town Of
Milford a spurious stamp with which
they were to mark the ballot at the re-
cent election.
Detinance Of law like this must stop.
The men who are implicated in this new
crime must be punished.
THE Sun for several weeks prior to the
election anticipated desperate schemes
which the leaders Of the Democratic
party in Kent county had concocted.
Warning Of these schemes was given in
the columns Of this paper to the end that
many Of them were abandoned. Yet
here is one which in the face of the pub.
ilclty gwen to the intentions OF this Kent
county ring, was attempted.
The failure of the effort to commit
fraud in Milford was brought about by
the same force that brought about the
reputation OF tile Kent county Demo-
cratic leaders-.honest Democracy.
The Democratic Judge refused to be q
party to the crime and would not give
the spurious and illegal stamp to the
voters as was planned. He has the bogus
stamp now in his possession.
This man Harry Satterfeld-is one OF
the honest Democrats who repudiated
the degenerates who have ruled Kent
county for so long.
This new system Of corruption must be
met with the firm law and the perpe-
traitors punished. No time should be
lost, but action taken at once.

Mrs. CoRDELIA BoTKIN is to be tried on
December for the murder OF Mrs. J. ?.
Dunning Of Dover. J. p. Dunning has
expressed himself as desirons of being
the star witness against this woman.
What particularly strong evidence is
held by this man is not apparent. lie
has proved himself an unfaithfu hus-
band and now displays purpose of
fighting bitterly the woman whose conf
dence he enjoyed during the estrange-
ment of his wife
1t would be quite unnatural should J.
p. Dunning not wish to have the mur-
derer Of his wife convicted, but an in
spection Of statements made by him
since his arrival from Porto Rico, shows
contradiction in several particulars. Only
after long consideration and repeated re-
quests for his opinion as to Mrs. Botkin's
connection with the murder did Dun
ming express belief that she is the
guilty one. Then he but identified .
portion of the handwriting upon the
fatal box OF candy.
Delaware authorities have worked un-
ceasingly and honestly both in all effort
70 have Mrs. Botkin brought to this
State for trial, and to gather proper evil
dence against her. All this they owed
to the families OF the two murdered
women and the common wealth.
However, but circumstafitial evidence
seems to confront Mrs. Botkin and her
attorneys promise strong fight. Ii
Cordelia Botkin is guilty Of this atrocious
crime she must and it is sure, will safer.
If she is innocent, she must and it is
confidently expected, will be acquitted.
Strong evidence will be required to
show that Mrs. Cordelia Botkin killed
the two Dover women.
