Gratis and 2s Republicans, The latter

It u The duty Of these representa-

on Tuesday. That Senator should be
Republican. There are scores Of
worthy and competent Republicans in
the State among whom to chose. The
idea Of rs-electing Mr.. Gray as able and
worthy as be is, is but plea Of certain
men to create prejudice. Some papers
outside the State have candidly re-
commended his election In preference
to Mr.. Addicks, but Delaware Repub-
licans demand one Of their own party.
With the members OF the General
Assembly the responsibility of election
personally rests-or should rest. Out
side interference should be limited.
An able and worthy Republican should
be chosen, one who will unite the
party. 70 elect any other means future
defeat. 1t would be party suicide to
try it. Republicans Of the General
Assembly, elect a senators worthy
Republican, one who will unite the
