Put None bu, Democrat. on Guard.

Abiding to the story printed by the
Milford News and Advertiser of a CON
tempiated Addicks- Democratic deal at
the next election, the Dover Index says
Whether the story in question has or
has not the least foundation in fact, it
is pretty certain that Addicks would
enter into such a compact could more
apostate Democrats be discovered.
Therefore no chances should be taken.
IL no longer lies in our mouth to assert
that any and all Democrats who could
get place on the party's ballot are
and will be above such venality. Ex-
perionce has taught us bitter lesson ,
ii lies with US to make Of it useful
one as we'll.
As there have been in the past, so
there still are many in the Democratic
ranks whom no man would dare APP
proach in an improper manner. OF
such let the +icket be formed. Having
acted thus, even if there be no scin-
tilla of truth in such stories as the
above, still no harm will have been
done; while If there be truth in such
rumors, the party will still &c safe,
The advice is sound and practical.
While there arc plenty of Democrats
in Delaware whom no amount of temp
tation could dishonor, We have had
ocular demonstration of the fact that
there are others, calling themselves
Democrats, who would sell out the
party at any time for a money consid-
GRAFTON. These are the men who should
not BIO given the slightest consideration
when the nominations for the Demo.
cratic ticket are being made.
Washington once said, when his
picket lines were being formed at a
critical period: Put none but Ameri.
cans on guard" Let the Democratic
maxim for next years campaign be
Fut none but Democrats on guard q
remembering that men who would
betray tho party for price are moi
Democrats, no matter what they MAY
claim to he.

According to the story of the meet
ing OF the Union Republican city COM
mittee, Monday, report of which is
printed 10 our local columns, there is
bitter war in the Addicks camp. The
chairman OF the committee, Daniel f.
Stewart, was invited to resign, and did
SO; and there was also a vote of CEN
sure upon various parties for alleged
improper management of the last city
campaign, particularly with respect to
the expenditure OF campaign funds.
Whether this war IS real, or only u
pretense designed for effect, is not
known at present. The moves of the
Addiczs Republicans are at all times
crooked and mysterious, and it may he
that this open fight is mere gallery
play, intended TO conceal some hidden
move ia the direction of securing an
important advantage for the campaign
of next year.
A suggestive feature of the meeting,
however, WINS the remark of Committee
man MoCaulley of the Eighth ward.
He seemed to be very indignant over
what he thought was an attempt of the
Addicks managers to sell out their fol-
lowers 'I'll bet that Addicks will sell
US out at the next election il he can
make deal with the Regulars to be
elected SENATOR he said.
There is significance in this re-
mark, whether anything was intended
or not. That Addicls would cheerfully
make deal with the Regulars, with
one Of the two United States Senator
ships at stake at the next election as
the consideration of the bargain, is not
doubted for an instant. A deal of this
kind would be made as promptly and
as cheerfuliy as was the deal for Demo-
cratic votes for United States Senator
at the last session of the Legislature.
But will the Regular Republicans
consent to such a deal? This is a
question of vital interest.
Evidently deals are to DO the trap
that the people will have to guard
against next year. Deals with Regular
Republicans and deals with disreputa
BILE Democrats. And all with one object
in viewthe election of Addicks to the
United States Senate.
death to all Addicks deals" should
be the watchword of all good citizens
throughout the campaign of next year.

match Composition rxh,b,t,ou.

George A. Robinson, who claims to
have discovered match composition
which will probably revolutionize the
manufacture of matches, gave dem
onstration of the difference between his
composition and that generally used
Tuesday afternoon at No. 1904 Market
street. His object was TO show that
his composition contains no phosphor-
GUS and therefore is not injurious to
the health of people engaged in the
manufacture of matches or theii use.
He. explained that in his discovery he
had eliminated all Of tho objectionable
features and found a composition which
would make matches with no risk to
life or limb. He also said his matches
wore odorless when damp, did not SPIT
fife when struck and were generally
safe to use. On September Goth COM
Eany, known as the Eureka Match Co.
OF which he is a member, was chartered
at Dover with capital stock of
$780,, 900, the object OF which is the
manufacture of matches by his process.

A vetern OF the Revenue Gutter Service,
With an Interesting History.

a Netern OF the Revenue Gutter Service,
With an Interesting history.
William Forrest, aged CT years, died
at IL o'clock Tuesday at his residence,
No. 1900 Lancaster avenue. He had
been sick for several week and on Sun
day suffered stroke, from which he
did not rally. He was d vol known
citizen, having been in the grocery
business at Lancaster avenue and
Franklin street for some time.
Deceased had an interesting history,
having been q veteran of tho United
States revenue cutter service, At one
time he was master ut arms on the
revenue cutter Forwood, which hailed
from the port of Wilmington. In 1882
he went to California on the revenue
cutter Joe Lane, and while his boat
was in one of the South American PORTS
he fell from the top of one of the masts
to the deck through the front skylights,
a distance of ~ feet. He was rendered
unconscious by the fall and remained
so for four days, but eventually
recovered and had been in fairly good
health until recently. He retired from
the service some time ago, but was o
veteran mariner in every sense Of tho
word, taking great interest in all
marine matters. He was lover of
yachting and about the last rational
remark no made was on last Saturday,
when he asked one Of his sons if he
thought there would be enough wind
for the Columbia and Shamrock to race.
He was native of Scotland. Five
children survive him. His wife died
about three years ago.

Such Nonsense should BE s,opn.d.

Attention is called by the Sunday
Star to a matter very trivial in some of
its aspects, but which involves i'm
portant considerations. 1t is the lack
of cordial relations between the two
State detectives, which not only keeps
them from speaking as they pass BY"
but prevents them from CO operating
in their official work. To such an ex-
tent has the trouble gone, that recently
Detective McVey took a member of the
city police force down the State with
him, simply because the personal ill
feeling existing between him and De-
tective Witsil kept him from asking
his colleague to accompany him.
This will not do There is no sense
in the city Of Wilmington being put to
expense by reason OF petty quarrel
between the two State detectives. We
have too few policemen in Wilmington
at the best, and to still further weaken
the force by taking one of its officers
out of the city, when there is State
detective on hand especially appointed
for such duty, is neither right nor
,businesslike. IL the occasion arises,
the Wilmington authorities stand ready
to place the entire police force at the
disposal of the State, in the work of
arresting criminals, but they should
not be expected to permit the police to
do the work of State detective. with
State detective unengaged, simply
because these two detectives are at
outs and will have no personal com
munication with each other. While it
may not be advisable to adopt an IRON
clad rule prohibiting the city police
from doing any kind of work outside of
the city limits, it will be we'll for the
Police Commission to put stop at
once to one State detective taking q
policeman away with him ON State
duty, simply because he will not sneak
to his colleague.
As to the two State detectives, their
childish course is detriment to the
interests of the State, and the attorney
general, under whose direction they
work, should put his foot down upon
such foolishness. If he does not, il
will be necessary for the Legislature to
take hand.

that when all the troops and ships now
under orders to proceed to the Philip

there will aggregate 10, 600 men and IS
war vessels. This is more men and
boats than this country ever had
engaged in war at one time, except
during the Civil War. 1t is far in

Cable..WO0druff Wedding.

One of the most delightful things that
can be said of Miss Katherine Wood
rufus wedding, which occurred Thurs
day evening, is, that with all its elegance
and beauty of detail, it carried out the
brides idea and was sweet, old-fash-
Toned wedding. From the big white
chrysanthemum bell, ringing back to
us amelodious memory of Eye good olde
days, on through the beautiful supper,
with the really delicious edibles, down
to the dearly loved orange-blossoms
plentifully adjoining the brides gown,
all through there was touch of what
was loveliest and most appropriate for a
young girls home wedding.
Promptly at nine O'Clock the white
ribbons were extended to form passage,
and to the soft strains of music from the
hidden orchestra the wedding party de-
scended the wide stairs. First the near
relatives and visiting friends, who took
their places in the large drawing-room,
forming welcoming semi-circle. Next
DR.. Egerton, who performed the cere-
mony, followed closely by the grooms-
men, Messrs. Coykendall, McClung,
Middleton, Woodruff, Wylie. Then the
maids, Misses Anne Gettys, Martha
Ijams, Iva McMullen and Mary Wylie,
who with the groomsmen formed a
smaller semi-circle in front of the larger.
Miss Pauline Woodruff as first brides
maid never looked better, in rose-pinlx
brocaded satin, daintily trimmed in tiny
ruches of white chiffon and pink roses.
When the maid of honor, the youngest
Miss Woodruff, joined the party the two
sisters awaited the brides coming at
the drawing-room door.
The scene after the bride had de-
scended with her father and the groom,
