spARRTNG non POINTS

When those Democrats who would
like TO occupy that vacant chair in the
United States Senate received inside
information" a few weeks ago that the
Republican majority intended to take
up and make quick and affirmative
disposition OF the Quay case, they and
their working friends were all activ-
ity. Governor Tunnells mail increased
in volume; the calls made upon him by
politicians from different sections Of
the state became more numerous, and
the earnest solicitations for political
favor in this particular direction be-
came more pressing. When this ac-
tivity in Delaware was at its height,
and when railroad tickets and postage
stamps we're in such demand, the SEN
ate threw CONSERVATION into all camps
by postponing action on the Quay
matter. Il was a stunning blow for
the more earnest aspirants for a GER
tihcate from Governor Tunnel.
Now, however. that activity has
been renewed. Someone has given the
Delaware Democrats the inside infor-
nation that there no longer is any
doubt Of the outcome, and that in a
few days the Senate will seat MIR
Quay on the certificate given to him
by Governor Stone. Once more ther,
has been a sensible increase in tn,
volume Of Governor TunnelIs mail
All over the state a still-hunt for goo,
endorsement is being made by tn,
close friends Of the men who woul,
like TO wear the toga laid aside b,
Judge Gray. and delegations are beinl
formed TO go 20 Dover TO tell the gov
ern1r what great blessings he cal
bring upon the party Il he viii seiee
some particular man for the place.
Until the Senate takes definite ac
tion in the Quay case, It is underatoo
that the governor viii be exceedingl
careful not TO commit himself; fo
should the inside information ju.
received prove as unreliable as thi
which formerly was received. it woul
leave him in an unpleasant positio
should he express preference.
It IS not SO much the honor at u
governors hands that the senator's
asplrants are seeking as It Is the con
nisnaing position which such an a
pointnent would give them in Il
Democratic caucus next Januar
Evening journal., 1900-04-20

should the Democrats dominate the
LEGISLATURE. Take for instance. For
ner Attorney General John Biggs and
willard salisbury, Jr. They both want
to be senator and they both reside in
Wilmington. lt is mot reasonable to
suppose that. &C the Democrats obtain
a majority Of the Legislature in No
vember, rural New Castle, Kent and
Sussex will consent to permit Will
mington TO have all the representa-
ton in the United States Senate. But,
If Mr.. Quay is seated and Mr.. Biggs or
Mr.. Salisbury appointed, 1t places the
appolntee in splendid position to 90
before the Democratic caucus and de-
mand full term ON the ground that
it would not be just to limit his honor
and time Of service to the few months
intervening between the appointment
and the conyening OF the Legislator,
in joint session. In other words, Mr.
Biggs and Mr.. Salisbury are sparrin,
for points. Each would like to be tn,
recognized Democratic leader in Della
ware, now that Mr.. Bayard is dead
and Mr.. Gray is removed from part,
politics. If he cannot be the state leade
he at least wishes to rule in New Cas-
tie county.
Meanwhile, what has become Of For
mer Representative J.. Irving Hand
and the Bryan contingent? In dealin
with the governor they seem TO be lei
out Of the question entirely.

PArToN AGAINsr REYIsIoN.

All Delaware Presbyterians have a
keen interest in the present contro-
versy which is being waged about the
Confession Of Faith and its revision.
President Patton, OF Princeton Univer-
sity yesterday made a statement which
is significant It was:
If the Presbyterian Church ceases to
be a Calvinistic Church it will not need
the Calvinistic creed If the Presby-
terian Church Is a Calvimstic Church.
as l believe 1t TO be, then there is no
need of revising the Confession of
Faith. The creed needs no revision.
No church member is required to sub
scribe to the creed at all. No minister
is required to sign the creed in ipsissi-
mis- verbs. The Confession OF Faith
is a very good expression OF the Cal
whist system OF belief. Agitation on
this subject is entirely unnecessary in
my judgment
AS DIR. Hills and Or. Parkhurst. who
largely are responsible for the present
agitation, are controversialists by ma
tnrc, they no doubt will publicly ques
tion President Pattons declaration.

NAHUM e. THOMAS.

The name printed above is that of
one of the Republican candidates for
circuit judge in st. Clair county. Mr..
Thomas is of mature age, being now
about So years old. His practice as an
attorney has extended over period of
30 years. For an equal length of time
he has resided in Port Huron, and no
stranger to the people Of this county.
He is q ripe scholar, and in his profess
sion has a wide and extensive knowl-
edge of law. AS a candidate he comes
before the electors of St. Clair county
with no sentimental notions, or appeals
to sympathy. lie stands upon his
merits, and in that manner, comes be-
fore the people as one fully competent
to fulfil the duties Of the high Office for
which he is the nominee of the party
to whose interests, without being part
isan, he has always been loyal.

GEORGE w. MOORE.

George w. Moore, is now a member
of the upper house Of the Michigan
legislature. So we'll has he performed
the duties and fulfilled the desires of
his constituents, that he is again the
candidate of his party for the same
station. He was elected over a strong
competitor two years ago by more than
1900 majority, and when the nominal
ing convention assembled, there was
no question as to who shall be state
senator from st. Clair county for the
coming term. He is in the prime and
vigor of mature manhood, and the
varied and wide business experience
he has had, will enable him to serve
his constituents to both satisfaction
and profit. He is strong man, man
who commands, and will command in
fuence among his fellow legislators
When we measure the interests of this
senatorial district, when we consider its
needs, we know that no mediocre man
can serve us in the halls of the state
senate. And these are some of the
reasons, and we have many others,
why we feel confident that when the
next term of our state legislature con-
venes, Geo. W. Moore will be there to
answer at roll call.
The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1900-11-02
JAMES DUNN.

At the time Of his nomination by the
Republican convention as their candi-
date for the state legislature from the
Sd district of st. Clair county, we called
attention TO James Dunn. We then
gave him our hearty and unqualified
endorsement, and time has given us no
evidence why we should recall it, Mr.
Dunn is himself a farmer, and knows
what the farmers need in the way of
taxation laws and other legislation. AS
nine tenth of his constituents are farm
ers, it looks to us that one of their own
guild would be the proper person to
represent them.
He openly pledges himself, if elected,
to vote for all equal taxation measures
which promise TO dispense justice in
the matter Of burden bearing We
know Mr.. Dunn's reputation to be that
of a man who keeps his word, and one
on whom the climate of Lansing will
not work change. AS an honest man
he will do honest work, and the voters
of this district will make no mistake in
voting for him to serve them in the
halls of the lower house in the state
capitol.
The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1900-11-02

One of the most important, perhaps
superlatively so, of all the county offices
is that of Prosecuting Attorney. The
wrong man in that Office can involve
the county in perpetual and numerous
litigations, and vast expense by sense
less or ill advised official action. This
fact needs only to be stated to show
why the republican convention last
August named f. f. Law as their can
didate. Mr.. Law is no STRIPPING in
years or legal experience. He was not
satisfied with a mere pickup prepare
ton for his profession, but took the
L. M. course in law at Ann Arbor, of
which institution he is an honored
graduate. When voters consider all
these things, and the further fact that
a blunderer in this Office means waste
of time for the courts and their officials
and reckless waste of money which
taxpayers must furnish, we know there
will be no hesitancy in casting their
ballots for e. +. Law.
The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1900-11-02
HENRY STREETER.

The name above appears on the re-
publican ticket as that party's candi-
date for County Treasurer. Henry
Streeter is now the incumbent of that
office, and no man can bring forth a
single reason from his official conduct
why he should not be reelected by a
larger majority than he had two years
ago. That majority was attained over
one of the most popular, and capable
men to be found in the ranks of the
opposing party. Mr.. Streeter's official
ability was tested for years in trusts
committed to his care by his own town
ship. When the Board of Supervisors
convened some years ago, they placed
him in high and important places, and
these duties devolving upon him were
performed with the same care, ability
and absolute integrity as those are now
done in station of greater trust and
honor. The voter is not to be found in
st. Clair county who can assign a
reason outside of partisan policy why
the present county treasurer should
not succeed himself, as we know he
certainly will.
