The Kent County Election of 1896

The Wilmington Sun in discussing
the difference between the election in
Kent county in 1896 and that in
Louisiana for President in 1876 says:
"We deny that the election in Kent
county in 1896 was not free and fair
election by all the people of county
1t was as fair an election as was ever
held in this county. But aside from
that, Judge Lore in one of his decisions
in the Kent county mandamus suit, de-
clared that the claim which our friend
makes. of fraudleet election, did not
hold good. He decided that the votes
should have been counted, that ballots
cast are inviolate and that redress
Wust be sought in the courts and ac-
cording to law. That is just what the
Republicans did-they appealed to
the law and the courts; the Democrats
violated the law and refused, as long
as they could, to allow legal decision
of the controversy. The Democrats
chose to be outlaws.
The attempt to justify the Kent
county outrage, by comparison with
the decision of the Electoral Commits
sion in 1876, fails because the former
was in violation of the law, and the lat
ter in obedience to the law. Whatever
may have been the conditions in Lou
isiana in 1876, the Presidential dispute
was settled under law enacted by the
Congress of the United States consti-
tuting a special commission of the
most eminent jurists and statesmen in

The Bowers and Woodland Beach
Democratic Meetings.

The following is from the editorial
of Wilmington paper last Thursday:
'Ex-Congressman Handy reception
at the Woodland Beach Democratic
meeting was in vivid contrast with the
reception of Senator R. r. Kenney at
Bowers Beach. The meeting was
composed of practically the same peO-
pie who attended the Bowers Beach
meeting. They were, until now, sup
posedly the friends and supporters of
the Senator in his ambition to succeed
himself in the United States Senate.
To develop that idea into certainty
the first of these singular off-year
Democratic meetings was held. 1t
was a failure. The would be-hero of
the hour failed to whoop-em-u sue
cessfully. He faunted his changeable
color flag from straddle on the politi-
cal fence, fell off on the wrong side
and got up mad all over. His mad
ness seems to have worked his undo
ing. He attacked his friends and they
had turned against him. Enthusias-
tic Kenney men of a week ago, now
say that he has been deposed, and that
he is no longer a Democratic leader.
Ex-Congressman Handy was heartily
greeted everywhere and by everybody.
His rotund body was a quiver with
emotion, his face radiant with smiles
and his leonine locks falling over his
brow were like black flags of defiance
to his rivals. He was winning in his
affable, generous response to kindly
greeting. He was decided too. A
free silver man and wanted everybody
to know it. Against such a rival a
stradling ex-military martinez with a
two colored flag had no show
The Woodland Beach meeting con-
firms, however, the impression made
at Bowers's Beach. The Delaware
Democrats are still for Bryan and free
coinage of silver. They were just as
bitter in their denunciation of the gold
Democrats at Woodland Beach as they
were at Bowers Beach. This indicates
that the concession for Democratic
unity in the coming campaign must be
made by the goldites, and this makes
a very interesting situation.

National Export Exposition, Philadelphia
REDUCED RATES VIA PENNSYLVANIA
RAILROAD.

The National Export Exposition,
which opens at Philadelphia on Sep
tember IA and continues until Novem-
ber 80, will be the most interesting
and important event occurring in Phila-
delphia since the Centennial Exhibi-
ton of 1876. In addition to its valuable
commercial exhibits it will present
many features of popular interest and
amusement. The United States Ma
rine Band, Sousa's Band, the Banda
Rossa, Innes' Band, Damrosch's Or
chestra, and other celebrated bands
will furnish music alternately, and a
Midway Plaisanoe, equal if not su-
perior to the famous Worlds Fair Mid
way at Chicago, and comprising a
Chinese Village, a Chinese Theatre,
acrobats, and customs; an Oriental
Village, Londan Ghost Show, Hagen
backs Wild Animal Show, Blarney
Castle, and many other unique pre-
sentations, will furnish abundant and
diversified amusement. Arrangements
have also been made for Mandolin,
Guitar, and Banjo Concerts, and for a
grand chorus from the German Sing
ing Societies.
For this occasion the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company will sell excursions
tickets from all points on it's line, to
Philadelphia and return, at rate of a
fare and third for the round trip plus
price for admission. These tickets
will be sold during the continuance of
the Exposition and will be good for re-
turn passage until November 80.
For specific rates and additional in
formation apply to nearest Ticket

WILL 1T BE WAR?

President Kruger's refusal to assent
to the demand of Joseph Chamberlain
for the appointment of joint commits
to inquire into the grievances of the
Outlanders in the Transvaal has a dis
tinctly warlike look.
Nevertheless, friends of peace and
progress will be 10th to believe that an
armed clash is inevitable until it comes.
The Beers apparently have nothing to
gain and everything to lose by Obsti-
nate resistance to the British insist
ence that a fuller degree of political
rights shall be given to men of British
birth who are residents in the Dutch
Republic, When there was talk of
war between the relocated regulars
and Dom Pauls rifeman, some four
years ago, the Beers had reason for
thinking that they could count on
at least the moral assistance of their
German kinsmen. Now, the Kaiser
and the British Government are ap-
parently on the most amicable terms.
and there is no prospect that any
European Government will even utter
a protest if the British legions in South
Africa are set in motion to extinguish
the independence of the Boer State.

this country. Whatever our friend
may think of the ethical side of that
case, he cannot say that it was not
legal, and that it was not decided in
favor of the Republican contention by
the highest attainable authority. The
Kent county case was exactly opposite.
The Democrats refused, prevented a
legal decision of the case, which in
every phase of it was decided against
them, until the undoing of the wrong
was impossible. There is no similarity
in the two cases.

JAcKSONS IN WIcOMICO'S POLITICS.

The fight this fall in Wicomico is
very peculiar one in many respects.
Ex-Governor, Elihu E. Jackson, is
very anxious to see the entire Demo
cratic ticket win. Mr.. M. V. Brewing
ton, of the Wicomico News, is the
Democratic candidate for the State
SenatOrship. The Ex-Governor s
brother, Mr.. William H. Jackson, a
very wealthy man, is the Republican
candidate for the same place to sue
ceed the Ex-Governor, the present
Democratic incumbent. Mr.. William
H. Jackson is aided by his brother,
Col. Wilbur F. Jackson, who was de-
feated for Congress last fall by Col.
Smith, and by his son, William P.
Jackson. The fight will be Jackson
against Jackson, with three on one
side and one on the other Wicomico
has always been counted a sure Demo-
cratic county. but last year, the Demo
cratic majority was but little over a
hundred. This year is to be final
tug of war between them, and the out
come will be watched with great deal
of interest. There is no i'll feeling be-
tween the brothers in the fight, but
each one seems to be very firm and
convinced of the correctness of the
cause he has espoused. .-Berlin Her

MARYLAND ITEMS.

Two young men from Caroline were

FOR G. A. R. MEN.
An Idea Veterans and Their Friends VIII
Find of Service in Philadelphia.

Wanamaker Il Brown, the famous
Philadelphia clothiers, are printing for
the executive committee of the Grand
Army of he Republic, which will hold
its 33d National Encampment and Re-
union in Philadelphia in September,
two novel Identification and registra-
tion cards, which the members of the
G.. A. R., and their friends will find
of great assistance in locating old
friends and rest while comrades in
arms.
These cards are nearly the size of an
ordinary postal card, only one is a
trife larger, and are extremely valu-
able in their object.
On the larger card are given the
name and address or headquarters of
the G. A. r. member. Should he
happen to have belonged to three regi-
ments there are specially provided
spaces on the card in which his regi-
ment Cor regiments), company, State,
rank and brevet of services, post num-
ber and place may be registered.
These cards also indicate whether
the veteran was a member of the in
fantry, artillery, cavalry or other
branch of service.
On the reverse side of this attractive
card Wanamaker & Brown have printed
four neat little cards which extend a
graceful greeting to the G. A. r. and
invite old soldiers to Greater Oak Hall
to rest, talk, write and make such use
of the mammoth establishment as they
may see fit.
The smaller card gives the name,
home address and States of the vet
eran. It also records the location of
of his hotel or boarding house in Phila-
delphia during the encampment, the
military or naval organizations with
which he has been associated, and
through which inquiries will likely be
made for him, and the rank and arm of
service to which he has belonged.
The post and department are also
given.
The inscription on the reverse side
of this card is to the effect that mo
one was ever lost on a straight road, -
and that all roads lead to Sixth and
Market streets, the home of Greater
Oak Hall where veterans in the en-
ploy of the firm will be glad to well
come their comrades in the reunion.

Delaware used to be noted for
peaches and politics. The politics
are still here, and perhaps more profit
able than formerly. Just how the
present state of things will be sum-
moned up, in view of the increase in
tomatoes, we cannot say. Some Blue
Hens Chicken may try to foist the
phrase Tomatoes or Tomcats and
Politics" on us. But there is some
thing rudely shocking about this com
bination and we fear the link cannot
be forged.

during the last several terms have been

The enhanced price of raw materials
is put forward as the controlling rea-
son for the recent advance of SIS per
ton in the price of structural steel.
The true reason, however, is doubtless
to be found in the firm belief of the
structural steel makers that the extra
ordinary activity in all branches of
steel construction will not be checked
by this additional action.

and have had a great deal of experience
with medicines. Last summer my lit
tie daughter had the dysentery in it's
wost form. We thought she would
die. L tried everything I could think
of, but nothing seemed to do her any
good. I saw by an advertisement in
our paper that Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was
highly recommended and sent and got
a bottle at once. 1t proved to be one
of the the very best medicines we ever
had in the house. 1t saved my little
daughters life. I am anxious for every
mother to know what an excellent
medicine it is. Had 1 known it at
first it would saved me a great deal of
