We have opened a full-fedsct
and quite complete piano store. The
finest instrument we sell is one Of the
two equally fine sorts made-The
Chickering. You know, the Stein
way is the other.
Then we have the Vose piano and
the Krell and the Royal. And the
Angelus, the piano playing attach
ment and the Symphony, self
playing organ, that is a complete
organ besides.
We were six months getting ready
for this new branch of our business.
1t is manned by experts, and when
we claim complete mastery of the
business we do so advisedly. As
artists, these experts know the pianos,
but piano people are dreamy class,
only knowing one safe way of SELL
ing-and that is to charge prices SO
big as to surely bring them a profit.
We shall sell pianos as we sell
other goods-at least possible prices.
This will help the general piano busi-
ness, increase the number of piano
players and, we believe, will be fair
to all.
Piano prices are lowered.

DISHONEST JOURNALISM.

The TRANSCRIPT has no desire TO
continue q useless controversy nor to
say harsh things, but truth is truth,
and since we have In cold type sample
of the dishonest Journalism resOrted to
by every Addicks organ in the State to
deceive the people and uphold his poli-
tical treachery, we submit 1t. We
submit it with regret that On old-time
friend Is involved but the truth should
prevail. The Smyrna "Times'' has
charged the anti-Addicks papers with
q desire to investigate only Farlow.
King and Clark. In the last Issue Of
the TRANSCRIPT we said:
'sThe facts are that the TRANSCRIPT has
from the first insisted upon an investiga'
ton into all charges; it has advocated the
calling OF every member, and we will here
add every officer, of the General Assembly
before the proper tribunal If necessary to
uncover the charges of bribery and crook
edness of the recent session. 1t stated
plainly in its last issue that the demand is
for an investigation of all charges"
The readers of the TRANSCRIPT will
bear witness that from the first this has
been our position, our language could
not be palmer, yet the 'Times" for the
third times repeats its false assumption
Of our position. We quote its entire
answer this week, proving it unfair
and driven to dishonest journalism to
uphold Addicksism and to deceive the
people, and at the same time We SUBJ
NIT to an intelligent constituency
samples of ''verbiage" and ''mad dog
tails" in the first sentence in the fol-
lowing quotation from the 'sTimes":

in the last issue Of that paper in regard to

as to remind one Of the mad dog in chasing

TIE INDICTMENTS.

The grand jury Of Kent County has
this week found two true billsof in-
terest to all Delawareans. The one is
in the race track bin against Emmet
D. @. Hedgeman who acted as clerk Of
the Senate towards the Gloss OF the
legislative session; the other is against
Representative Mark L. Davis charged
with IN offer to bribe Representative
Lattomus. In addition TO these the
Attorney. General filed bis information
with the Court In the cases against DIR.
7. @. Moore and his colleagues in
Duck Creek hundred charged with the
use Of money at last sregistrations.
These charges viii be tried not by jury
but by the Court. The grand jury ig-
nored the indictment against Repre-
sentative Short charging him with an
offer Of 81, 600 to bribs Representative
Wagamon TO remain out Of the joint
sessions In the voting for . Senator TO
aid the election OF Addicks,
The indictment Of Representative
Davis charges him with Offering Rep,
resentative Lattomus S., 900 to vote for
J. Edward Addicks by the payment Of
q mortgage, and also with offering to
pay the money to the wife of Mr..
Lsttomus. The case has been con-
tinued to Tuesday next, May I'd.
In the "snake" bill three other names
come into prominence with Hedge
mans. Senator John Pyle fathered
the bill in the Senate; Representative
John P. Donahoe took charge Of it in
the House but had no opportunity to
get it passed; John T. Dickey. the
tricky politician, acknowledges draw
ing the bill and like Boss Tweed says
in substance. "What are you going to
do about itP" Had the bill become q
law 1t would have licensed all forms Of
gambling. Mr.. Hedgeman is charged
with forging the endorsements as to
the passage Of the bill. He was arrest.
cd at Laurel on Wednesday night. Bail
was denied him and he is In charge OF
the Sheriff. His case is set for hear
Ing on Wednesday.

APPOINTMENT OF SENATORS.

Within an hour after the jury had
declared former Senator NJ. s. Quay
not guilty of conspiracy to defraud the
Peoples Bank of Philadelphia, Cover
nor Stone appointed him to the vacancy
in the u. S. Senate occasioned by the
failure Of the Pennsylvania legislature
to elect a successor to Mr.. Quay whose
term expired March 4th, last. The
precedents in the Senate are against
the admission of claimants to the
Senate thus appointed. Only last year
Mr.. Quay voted against the admission
of Mr.. Corbett, Of Oregon, named
under similar circumstances: It is
said, however, that the Senate will sd-
NIT Mr.. Quay on his personal popular
ity, reversing former decisions. Politi-
cal exigencies are said to demand it.
This remains to be proven, the prophs-
sizes OF admission may prove to be
mistaken.
There are three other states like
Pennsylvania with similar senatorial
vacancies. Gov. Gage, Of California,
has already named Dan Burns, the
Southern Pacific Doodle candidate, as
his choice from that State though he
will withhold the credentials, it is
said, until after the Quay application
has been passed upon. Mr.. Burns is a
Republican.
Nothing has been heard from Utah
where the appointee, If made, will
probably be Populist Silver Republi-
can though the legislature is Demo-
cratic.
In Delaware Governor Tunnel has
shown again his good judgment by the
announcement that he will not name q
Senator to Gil the vacancy in this
State. Should the Senate admit Mr..
Quay then Gov. Tunnel would most
probably name successor to Judge
Gray. 1t would be pleasure as well
as a duty for him to do 50, and Mr..
Addicks would then be represented by
two Democrats in the Senate, since
Gen. Kenney fills vacancy created by
him. Strange things have come to
pass; and how do our Union Republic

Paris wants the Liberty Bell as a chiel
attraction in the American exhibit of the
exposition of 1900. 1t has been question
for some years as to the advisability OF
moving the bell from its present quarters
any more than is positively necessary. A
number of our readers remember the oppo-
sition which was created when the bell was
sent to the Chicago exposition. But in this
connection it is well to remember that Chi
cago is part of our own great country and
bears the same love for our historical relic
as do the people of the east, while Paris is
in another country-friendly tits true-a
long distance away and the bell would be
in great danger while being transported
across the Atlantic. The stand taken by
Mayor Ashbrtdge is well worthy of COM
mendation by all Americans, as it displays
his interest in one of our most priceless and
historical relics, and those in custody of the
bell would do well to weigh the matter
carefully before making decision. Why
does not Paris ask for our original DecIara-
ton of Independence? We could spare one
as well as the other, and together they
would attract considerable attention-from
the English people especially.
