Now will begin the struggle for
the election Of the United States
Senator from Delaware. The eyes
of all the other States will be upon
Delaware and it will be a criue il
through any trickery that Senator
Gray's successor is not chosen at
this session Of the Legislature. A
Republican Senator means Repub-
hcan success in this city this wear,
and a Republican Governor in 1000.
In fact the failure toeelect Senator
will jeopardize the Republican sue
cess for the next four years. The
electionof a United States Senator
now means the election Of another Re
publican Senator at the assemblaec
'e4 the legislature Two years hence.
The people are interested in the Sc
lection Of United States Senator
They will not be satisfied with any
excuse II one is not elected. The
Republican party never before in
its history has had such AN oppor-
itunlty to capture the State and
place Republicans in control Of it's
affairs from Governor down to dog
