Proud of It's Women

Chestertown has always been proud
OF its ladies and to-day is prouder than
ever. The beautiful drinking fountain
donated to Chestertown Wednesday,
by Mrs. Hill is but another result OF
the ladies efforts. Step by step they
are transforming the desert places into
blooming gardens and the dust-laden-
ed air no longer annOys our citizens
and visitors. Chestertown is taking q
place far ahead of our rivals and all
because OF the enterprise of our ladies.
Let the good work go Chichester
town Kent News.
This is the fountain that was sold
to the women of Chestertown by the
Wilmington and Brandywine Gene
terry Company several months ago.

II Addicks hopes to reap any bene-
ht from the Republican State Conyen.
tion tomorrow he will be disappoint-
ed. There will be nothing in the con
ventional action which can - be con-
strued as an intimation that Delaware
Republicans will do anything to fur
ther his senatorial project. They
know him as the worst enemy the Re
publican party has, and will treat him
as such in all respects. If the Union
Republicans want to accomplish any
thing practical at the polls this Fall
they must repudiate his leadership and
treat with a distinct understanding
that he is out Of he field for all tme
so far as they are concerned.

We are credibly informed that in
Blacldbird and Appoquinimink hun
dreds the Addicksites are pressed SO
hard for material that they are goine
outside their party for delegates to
their so-called state convention in
Dover on Thursday. Two OF the men
they have named are straight-oui
Democrats and another is-nn uncom-
promising Republican who is opposed
to Addleks and Addicksism 800 days in
the year. Thus evidences Of the disin-
tegration OF the Addicks party multi,
ply from day to day. The Republicans
Of the state have the gas man on tn,

The greatest shock sustained by Ad-
dicks in his political career was when
he came back to Delaware from the Phil
adelphia National Convention and
found the Republicans Of the state more
determined than ever to prevent him
from becoming the political boss of
Delaware and a member of the United
States Senate. He anticipated a
stampede in his direction and it failed
to materialize.

That Horace G. Knowles, Of the Sew

for delegate to the Republican State
Convention no one will deny, for the
primaries to-day are open to all men
who have aspirations in that direction.
At the same time Alr. Knowles must
bear in mind that other men have the
same right, and that in the matter OF

Oh yes | am candidate,
A full-hedged nominee;
And yet I'm not as happy
AS | thought that l should be.
You see the next convention
May prefer some other man,
And there are some, ] fancy,
Who will skin me II they can.
But s'pose the next convention
Should decide to keep me there?
I'd meet a peck OF trouble,
And be introduced to care.
Perhaps I'd be a candidate
Perhaps l wouldn't be;
Twould all depend on Addicks then,
And dearest Frank Alice.
For If they said: Dear sir; get off,
Wen change this ticket some"
Why that would end the matter, sir,
And OF I'd have to come.
But even if they let me stand
Until election day,
don't see any star of hope
There amt one cheering ray.
Oh. say, I'd like to own myself
For just day or twol
To hold up my head in a crowd,
The way l used TO do.

To-MoRRows CONVENTION


The result Of Saturdays registration
in this city was gratifying, especially
10 Republicans. Speaking approx
mately IL. 900 Of the 10000 voters are
qualified to participate in the primar-
les OF the several parties, and only
about 5000 will have to be booked be-
tween now and the general election to
make the city vote a full one in all
respects. AS a full vote means Re
publican success. the leaders Of the
party are encouraged greatly by con-
ditlons as they exist.
It is believed the registration for the
general election will run up to fully
10000. II this be realized in the two
registration days remaining between
now and the general election about s.
600 will be put on the books.
To-day the Republican State Con-
vention primaries are being held. The
vote promises to be large and the ac-
tion OF the voters harmonious. There
are contests in some OF the districts
which but add to the spice of the days
proceedings.
This evening there will be a meeting
OF the State Committee in Republican
Headquarters at Ninth and King
streets. to make preliminary arrange
ments for the convention.
Tomorrow morning the Republican
State Convention will meet In the
Grand Opera House. and continue in
session until late in the afternoon, With
a recess for lunch. Present indications
are that It will be the biggest conven-
ton ever held in the state by any party
The demand for sittings justihes the
prediction that the large auditorium
will be packed with those who believe
in Republican principles and practices
and who are opposed unalterably to
Democracy and Addicksism.
There are thousands OF men and
women in Wilmington who never saw
a state convention and whose only idea
Of such a meeting has been CLEANED
from the columns of newspapers. Fol
such Of them as can gain admittancet the
sight will be new and inspiring, foi
many Of the best and ablest men il
the state will participate in the pro
ceedings.
There will be no cut-and-dried feat
ures such as stamped the Addicks snal
convention on August 6. Each dele
gate will be his own man. with botl
voice and vote to exercise as become

Addicks framed the state ticket Of
August and put it in his vest pocket.
Then he went to Dover. recited its
contents 10 his henchmen and told
them to vote for its nomi-
nation. Following this he offered his
slate to the Republicans, who shrug-
ged their shoulders and proceeded Will

All talk OF the acceptance OF Dr.
George w. Marshall, OF Kent county
The Addicks canoldate for governor, by
the Republicans is foolish. His past
work against the Republican party pre-
cludes the bare thought Of such q
thing. For years he has been besid,

terprise, and the same may be said o.

Evening journal., 1900-08-20

To-morrow's Republican gathering
in the Grand Opera House will not be
a one-man iasco like the Addicks af-
fair Of August 6, but a full-hedged and
genuine state convention, with every
delegate his own man.

With the vast volume OF travel be-
tween Philadelphia and Atlantic CITY
The railroad companies cannot exercise
TOO much care in seeing that their
rolling stock and roadbeds are in per-
feet condition. We believe that every
practical device insuring safety has
been adopted, but there are certain
dangers against which it is difficult
for them to guard, one Of the worst of
which is the train-wrecker. A man
who sets out to wreck a train usually
does so methodlcally. He stud
les the schedules and acquaints
himself with the movements Of the
track-walkers on the section in which
he has decided to operate. To do his
work requires but a few minutes. With
trains running sixty miles an hour
brakes are Of little use when short dis
tances are involved and there is small
chance of averting wreck. 1t has been
but two or three days since some fiend
placed an obstruction on the tracks
across the meadows near Atlantic City
There We're 200 passengers aboard the
train which crashed into it. The train
was wrecked, but, by a miracle, the
passengers escaped with bad shaking
up. Jersey justice is famous for itl
severity, but if the miscreant who at
tempted to cause the wreck is captured
the worst that the courts OF the stat
have in store for him will be too goo,
to fit his case.
