presented al the Grand Opera House
next Friday and Saturday: THE scene

very effective The final scene Is ex-

by his action with reference to the five
commissioners bill for New Castle
county. Believing that the bill would
improve the conditions then existing
he not only voted with the Democrats
for its passage, but stood upon the
floor and fought shoulder to shoulder
with them. His action wac criticised
by the party leaders at the time, bu
that mattered not to him. He los
nothing In popularity or public respecf
by that demonstration OF independence
as his recent election for third legis
latiye term plainly indicates.
His presence at Dover at the pres
ent time is especially desirable becaUsi
he is unalterabiy opposed to the cleo
tion OF J. Edward Addicks to the
United States Senate. He has declared
that under no condition will he vote
for such a man; and when ne says Il
he means It. His presence would be
