Republicans who will read the list OF
names representing the prominent Demo-
Gratis at the Dover conference will lind |
that Of John Biggs, Ex- Chairman of the |
Democratic State Committee in 1896, and |
Willard Salisbury, Chairman of the New |
Castle County Democratic Committee of |
that year and r. r. Kenney then, as now |
National Democratic Committeeman.
Mr.. Biggs in his capacity as State Chair
man was responsible for the conduct OF
the most thoroughly dishonest and cor
lrupt campaign the Democrats ever waged
| in this State--in which u liberate at
tempt was made to steal all three coun-
ties of the State and which succeeded i'll
two counties, the facts of which have
been established in the courts.
Mr.. Salisbury as chairman of the
Democratic County Committee was re-
sponsible for the New Castle county out
RACES of that year; outrages that We're
confessed by fifteen Of his colleagues in
the court whom, It is alleged, he saved
from serving sentence in Jail for the
confessed crime.
r. r. Kenney was the leader of the
Kent county outrage, by which all the
ballot boxes in which there was major
I:ty of Republican votes We're rejected and
the Democrats enabled to steal the leg
islature of 1897 and elect him to the
Uuited States Senate. No man in this
or any other State, ever won senatorial
election by more outrageous disregard
for the will of the people as expressed
! in these ballots, nor by more utter dis
, regard for the law, which he as an at
torney. at-law, was obligated to defend
: and administer.
To those who witnessed it the Kent
| county outrage of 1896, can never be for
gotten-the unreasoning madness of
conspirators; .Aenney's assault on W.
Y. Boggs that could have no purpose
z short of starting riot; the plea of the
t venerable Edward Ridgley, for the sac
D lredness of the ballot, his own Democratic
. ballot being among them; the insult
e hurled at him for this noble evidence OF
9 his good citizenship, by EX-Secretary OF
: State John d. Hawkins-all conspire t.
e make an incident in Democratic politics
of whom all honorable men are ashamed
In that Delaware was more dishonoret
Il than in aught else that has ever occurred
n in her politics.
That outrage was conceived and car
o ried out in the interests of the allie'
y Democrats and "Regulars con
e served and carried out to prevent tn
election of J.. Edward Addcks to tn
United States Senate, in spite of the fac
that the Republicans of the State unde
his leadership had won the Legislature o
Z. the State despite the efforts of Demo

VOTE AGAINST MIR. ADDICKS ON
THE FIRST BALLOT, OR ON ANY
OTHER. BALLOT.
The Ledger's argument is better, more
forceful for the Republican cause than
against it, for the simple reason that
it is the cause of the right political prin-
ciple, and has had the approval of the
people of the State given it in unmis-
taxable terms, not only once bur may
times.
The one thing in American politics
which stands above all other Judgments
! is the decision of the people at the polls.
The man or men who refuse to acquiesce
in that decision is (are) traitors to the
vital principle of the government-there
can be no right appeal from decision OF
the people at the polls, except to THEN
Judgment given, again, at the polls.
BY this kind of irrevocable judgement
and decision have the people of Delaware
and Pennsylvania demanded the election
of ]. Edward Adiicks and NJ. 5. Qua,
to the United States Senate.

Some skies may be gloomy,
Some moments be sad,
But everywhere, always,
Some souls must be glad,
For true Is the saying
Proclaimed by the seer,
''Each day is the best day
OF somebody's yearl' N
Each day finds hero,
Each day helps saint;
Each day brings to some one
A, Joy without taint.
Though II may not be my turn
Or yours that is near,
'Each day is the best day
OF somebody's year"
The calendar sparkles
With days that have brought
Some prize that was hoped for,
Some good that was sought.
High deeds happen daily;
Wide truths grow more clear.
sEach day is the best day
OF somebody's yeari"
No sun ever rises
But brings joy behind,
No sorrow in fetters
The whole earth can bind.
How selfish our fretting,
How narrow our fear!
Each day is the best day
OF somebody's yearl"

The old adage is: Sause for the goose
is sauce for the gander. In Pennsylvania
as in Delaware, the Republican party has
chosen its United States Senatorial can
didate and has practically selected him
S>by repeated votes at the polls. In Penn
sylvania the Republican candidate for
Senator is NJ. S. Quay. In Delaware the
Republican Senatorial candidate is J,
Edward AddiclSs. In both States bolt
ing remnant of the party is opposing the
party's candidate, refusing to vote for
him and threatening to weaken the Ma

Srates Senate, and in both cases are
cratic party for the defeat of the de-
cision of the people made at the polls. To

THE STATUS OF FOREIGNERS
In China Should Now re Settled for All
Time lie Say5-Euss,ans Report That
Prince Ching Has Been Appointed
Regent of China.

Shanghai, Sept. 4.-W. w. Rockhiil,
special commissioner uf the Un.t5d
States to China. lays the only hope for
the powers rests in harmonious action.
He asserts that the Boxer moven-e t
was deliberately planned by the i'm
perial authorities in the hope OF oX-
polling all foreigners from the empire.
He says the status of foreigners in
China should now be settled for al
time. General distrust of Ii Hung
Chang is expressed on all sides at
Shanghai. He is said to have become
intensely anti-foreign in latter years.
His abilities now are being devoted to
creating discord among the powers, in
order to cripple them in their nego-
tiations with China. He is intriguing
with the view of being recognized by
the powers as the sole negotiator foc
China, his object being by trickery to
defeat the objects of the powers.
From Russian sources comes a rumor
that Prince Ching has been appointed
Regent of China. but is afraid to re-
turn to Pekin unless the ENJOYS will
guarantee his liberty. Germans at
Tientsin demand that the United
States troops vacate their camp there,
which is on the grounds of the German
concession. The Germans want the
site for their coming re-enforcements

mands that Ii Hung Chang be allowed
to proceed to Pekin for a conference.

The girl allowed him to lift her into
the cab, making no protestations. She
was like one dazed by terrible shock,
CHASTITY pale. Her breath came short.
She lay back against the cushion,
and fast.
Enderby slipped another shining
piece into the hand of the stalwart
guardian Of the peace, who gave the
driver Doctor Howarth's address, and
the cab started. AS soon as it was
moving the girl started forward with
a terrified look in her eyes.
Where are we going? Oh, can't
let another doctor GOMEZ can't! Doc
tor Lyndon was the only one my IA
Their would allow. I can't let another
doctor see him!"
Her evident terror and distress puz-
zled Enderby. The whole adventure
seAmed to hS1 strange and unusual;
and he could not help wondering how
he. the prosaic. ordinary London man
OF the Temple And Piccadilly, had got
himself involved in so strange an af-
fair.
There was something mysterious
and inexplicable about the girls man
ner and Enderby did not know what
to do.

drive you straight home? In that

Buffalo, N. Y, Sept. 4.-For Mae
years Louis Phillip Perew OF iona
wanda labored with his body and his
brain at a huge undertaking. Now th %
work is finished and he has craven
image. made OF wood ana metal in tha
likeness of man. and it walks. In q
few days it will leave New York Tor

high, Of excellent proportions, this re

heroic stature. and has a dgnifed
military carriage. He has a quick
step of the perfect heel and toe walker.
His features are of the typical Amerlf
lean and so natural that one would i'm
agine them OF natural flesh instead Of
aluminium. He is dressed in the
height of fashion, in a white duck out
ing suit and cap Of the latest shape.
Eyes Of perfect blue roll in the head
and gaze upon those who surrolnl
him. putting a feeling in the awed
spectator that half convinces him that
the automaton is something more tina
a mechanical construction.
In making a trial to demonstrate the
mechanical perfection Of his automa
tan Mr.. Perew placed an obstruction
in the path of the approaching giant
With eyes turning in their sockets the
huge man seemed to discern the act
of the inventor. When near the OBJ
struction it stepped upon the obstruc-
ton and down to tho floor again with
ease. Corners of the hall were turned
just as successfully.
1t is expected that a number of SINH
lar devices will soon be made which
will walk about the country to adver-
tise the pan-American exposition. The
mechanical man holds in his hands the
ends of two chains. The other ends o,
these chains will be attached during
the long transcontinental journey to

Cause, if so. there ain't no use your

if he himself had required Doctor Lynn
don on q matter of life and death.
He was so astounded that he had no
reply ready, and when the porter
