Whatever may be the result of the
city election on June 3d-whether the
success of the Democratic or Regular
Republican nominees the Addicks
ticket should be overwhelmingly de-
feated. The people should bury it be-
meath an avalanche Of adverse votes.
This defeat should include every
nominee upon the Addicks ticket, no
matter whether the names of any of
them appear on other tickets or not.
This is no time for sentiment A can
didate on the Addicks ticket has no
proper place on any other ticket, and
If an Addicks candidate has place
on The ticket of any other party, tho
voters of that party should cut hin
remorselessly. Better, in such a stu
alton, vote for no one at all than for
an Addicks candidate.
The Addicks Republicans, when they
emerge from the municipal contest of
June Sd, should be shorn of every
opportunity to derive comfort or con
ISOLATION from the result. They should
not be given the opportunity to point
to single officer elected and say
exultingly, There is our man." They
should be made to suffer defeat all
along the line complete and over
whelming.
The Addicks Republicans received a
severe blow on Saturday last, when, al
their own primaries and with over
2.600 voters to draw from, they rolled
less than 600 votes. The object of good
citizens should be to SO work, both by
energy and persuasion, as to make the
Addicks poll at the city election even
less. Such result would crush oui
Addicksisn at this end Of the State
and doubtless have material effect in
reducing the number of its follower!
in Kent and Sussex.
And so the people of Wilmington car
do good work at the city election b,
defeating every Addicks candidate
from the top Of the ticket to tn,
/ bottom.

1t is IN the Hands of the People.

The Dover Index points out as fact
of which many people are ingorant,
that the present is likely to BIO crucial
period in the history of Delaware.
Time was when Delaware's only fear
was as to the financial prosperity of
her children, says the Index; dishonor
and disgrace was NOT feared because
undreamed of. In recent years. how
ever, dishonor come like thief in the
night, has abode with us like hidden
guest. All struggles to rid ourselves OF
this obnoxious presence seemed I'M
aVailing, until hope was born 10 the
deliberations of the late Constitutional
Convention. After the PRONUNCIATION
Of the new Constitution, with all its
drastic provisions against political
corruption, feeling OF security took
the place of the old encouragement.
Tho conviction Of the colored man Col
Inns at the very first trial under the
new laws. served but to strengthen
this feeling, and to generate very
prevalent belief that we had thoroughly
and permanently rid ourselves of the
old disgrace. When, however, the
public realized the results of the cor
ruption cases at the recent term Of the
Kent county court, this feeling of
security received sudden and unlocked
for shock.
Nor is this all. Rumor is rife that
the old practicers in political chicanery
and yenality on both sides of the party
fences are iubilant in the belief that
they may again resume their old prac-
tices with IMMUNITY. This is the most
alarming part Of the whole business.
There is but one way to block the old
game and the old tricks. and that is in
the hands of the people. The people
from the court Of last resort where ar
unappealable trial and conviction ma,
be had If the people will stant
together for honesty and purity, all the
self constituted perpetrators of frauc
and corruption can be thrown high ant
dry out of a job.
Herein is an all sufficient panacea fol
our political evils. Nominate, authorize
and elect only good and trustworth.
men. All the penal statutes and all thu
criminal courts in the universe canno
stop thieving SO long as you leave tn
thief near the pile of gold. Just a
true is it that all the provisions Of tn
new Constitution, and all of the mos
learned of judges, and most conscien
tious and impartial of iuries canno
put an end to political corruption Will
the people leave the management o
their parties in the hands of untrust
worthy and inscriptions men.

The Union Republican nomination
election, Saturday afternoon, proved
gratifying surprise to the friends of
good government and honest politics.
1t was practically fizzle.
Although there were no contests OF
any moment, the managers of the
party hoped to poll large vote. in
order to make it appear that their
party has larger following than the
Regular Republican party, the pri-
maries of which, last Wednesday after
noon, attracted less than l, 200 voters.
There remained on the voting books of
the primary election the names OF
about 1900 qualified voters, and it
was the hope of the Union Republican
managers to poll about 1900 of these
names, and thus have something to
crow over.
But the result showed that the
Unions could muster only 597 votes.
The poll of the Regulars was l.l93, so
that the Unionists polled within half a
vote of half as many votes as their
hated antagonists polled.
How far the presence Of Regular Re-
publican watchers at the polls pre-
vented the return of larger total is q
matter of conjecture. But certain it
is that their presence served to prevent
any fraudulent practices, and it can be
said with truth that the election was
conducted honestly and with due re-
gard to law. And the result was a
total so small as to be insignificant.
If this result is forecast of the
approaching dissolution of the Union
Republican party, it will be cause for
congratulation on tho part of all honest
citizens But the latter should not
relax their efforts because the party
that stands only for fraud and de.
bauchery at elections made such a
miserable showing at its primaries.
The fight against political corruption
should continue until the close OF the
polls on the day of election, and every
candidate nominated Saturday after.
noon-no matter whether his name
appears on any other ticket or not

defeat.
1t may be that the Union Republi

vote cast on Saturday. But, no mstte

LETTER FROM MANILA.
ciaytos Harrison. Who Is in the Army,
Writes to His Parents in This City.

CIaytoa Harrison, VINO Is in tho Army,
Writes to His Parents in This City.
Mr.. and Mrs. v. V. Harrison of
No. 703 West Seventh street, have re-
ceived an interesting letter from their
son, Clayton Harrison, who is mem
her of Co. A., Third United States
Infantry, mailed in Manila on April
18th. He gives some details concerning
the manner in which the army is
handled in the Philippines. Ais com
pany has been doing almost all kinds
of duty, but in most cases it was held
in reserve back of the firing line. He
states that the reserves are in more
dangerous POSITION than those on the
firing line, as the Filipinos shoot high
and the men in the rear are liable to
get the benefit of the bullets. He also
says the Filipinos are good runners
and make a great deal of noise when
they arc attacked. They are easily
driven from the trenches.
tWe had very nice trip coming
from the United States to Manila" he
writes, with the exception that while
crossing the Atlantic we had rough
weather. but after we left Gibraltar
the conditions were pleasant. During
the trip, which required 40 days, our
band leader, q sailor and little CIR
died.
.'lt will be all right over here If thi;
thing ever gets settled and we are as
signed to barracks. If we are not as
signed to barracks before the rainy
season starts / guess it will be pretty
| hard on all of us. -

what Does 1t s,eans

With grunt OF approval. "Repuhli-
can Glasses in the Sunday Star copies
this editorial from recent issue of
the Morning News:
1t was only few weeks since the
Democratic Iapers of this State
were shouting Judas" "apostate. "
traitor, renegade" &C., directing
their anger at three men who have
been read OUT of the Democratic
party. But We hear nothing of the
kind now, and those three men con-
tinue to live, eat, sleep and work in
Delaware Just the same as they did
before they were bombarded. But we
do hear mysterious rumors Of new
and astonishing combination with
those three men as the basis of most
remarkable attempt to capture the
State.
Now, what would the Morning News
and its delectable coparcener like to
see done in the matter? Certainly the
three Democrats who betrayed their
party by voting for Addicks for Sena-
tor were visited with the bitterest con-
domination that any men in Delaware
ever rested under. They were de-
nounced by Democratic papers and by
papers not Democratic. They were
formally read out Of the Democratic
party by the constituted party authori-
ties. They were ostracised in their
social and business rotations.
Two of these men, Representatives
Clark and King, are dono with the
Legislature, as their term expires with
the session, and their reelection /.
practically an impossibility by any
party. What Senator Farlow's position
in the next session will be, should HI
insist upon retaining his seat. it il
hard to imagine. Like the "mal
without country" he will be alon,
in the world.
Now, what can be meant by in
situations that these men, who's
offence is one that the law canno
reach-as they had a right to vote 70
whom they pleased have not beel
sufficiently punished SO far as it i
within the power of the Democrat
party and the people OF the State t
punish them? Does the Morning New
mean that they should have bee
punished by lynch law?

A worthy Local Work.

The Historical Sketch Of Old
Swedes Church, = written by Henry @.
Conrad, illustrated from etchings made
by Robert Shaw and printed by the
John NJ. Rogers Press, is a production
worthy OF more than passing notice,
particularly in connection with tho
great local event of the celebration of
the 200th anniversary of the church,
tomorrow week.
Mr.. Conrad's historical sketch is
complete. accurate and interesting
Mr.. Shaw's etchings are, of course,
artistic, and they represent the quaint
and historic edifioe from various points
of view, all delightfully."- familiar to
those who know the dear old church
well; the printing, as it was done by
the Rogers Press, could be nothing but
elegant.
Here is rare combination, and the
result is brochure that is not only
beautiful, but valuable as a faithful
picture of an ancient church that has
become one of the most cherished in.
situations of our city.
