CONVINCING PROOF.
The Average Wilmington Citizen Must
Accept the Following Proof

The great Sir Isaac Newton, one Of the
most profound reasoners the world ever
produced. once cut a large hole In board
fence to allow favorite cat seccess to two
gardens, and cut smaller hole to allow
her kitten to follow her. The weakness
manifested in Sir Isaac's action was due
to want, Of thought. Any reader who
mentally debates the proof offered here
about D0an's Kidney Pills and arrives at
any other conclusion than that stated in
this citizon's statement, is asIshort OF
reasoning as the philosopher when he
turned carpenter.

POLITICS OF
ALL KINDS.

According to Chairman Daniel r.
Stewart of the First District Com
mittee of the Union Republicans,
they intend to stick to their candl-
dates for the different local offices,
and support only candidates OF
their way OF thinking.
It is stated that there will be con-
siderable money distributed among
the voters iu this city in June. That
is. every man who loses time to en-
able him to vote, will be paid for the
same. Some ten thousand dollar
will be put atloat and we expect to
see great activity among those who
can vote on election day.
Brides, oh no, we do not expect
to see any money given away fool
ishly, but every man should be paid
for his time and nothingmore should
be paid the man whose time is his
capital. Every laborer is worthy
OF his hire.
Tie Democratic League of Della

having registered before the last
registration day, and swear they
will vote the Republican ticket to

election for City Council from the
Fifth ward. His opponents will be
George c. Guthrie OF the firm of
Jones Guthrie & Co., carriage
builders and Charles W. Gooding,
the well known real estate broker.
The Fifth ward is a strong Repub-
