in the Senatorial election, and elect
Colonel FL. A. du Pont and Democratic

Senate.
Secure this las result if it requires II Q
feat of the whole Republican S ate
ii set.
Part of this program has already been
carried out. The intention to carry it
out in intirety is indicated by the talk
current among Anti-Addicksites They
are telling all inqurers about matters
politic, that there will be but one Repub-
lican ticket to be voted for this fall when
they know that to insure that they must
agree TO support the Union Republican
nominees The Anti Addicksites rejec-
ton Of the Union Republican PROPOSE
tion for Republican unity made COM
promise S5ate ticket impossible. That
proposition carried with it as a condi-
tion OF lis acceptance the submission OF
tie particular question in dispute-tl e
Senatorial election 10 vo'e of the Re-
publicans OF the Sta'e. The Anti-Ad.
dicksites rejected the PROPOSE ion be-
cluse they would not reverse their de.
termination to defea' the wishes Of the
maj rity Of the Republican, OF the State
for the election of j. Edward Addicks to
tie United States Senate. Having re.
fused propositions for Republican unit y
that assured the election OF the entire
r Republican State ticket in order to pre-
We t the election of Mr.. Addcks 10 the
United States Sena e. and having adopted
a course that makes the success OF the
R p bica1 State ii ket doubtful they will
not hesitate to defeat that ticket In order
to feat Mr.Addicks.
TIA is the only reasonable conclusion
to be made in view of the Anti-Addicks
position. The Anti-Addicksites com
bined with the Democrats in 1896 to de.
feat the whole Republican State and
county ticket. In 1899 the same com
bina.ion was mads to prevent the Unior
&. Republicans from organizing the House
- of R representatives., because such organi
zation was supposed to be favorable ia
Mr. Addicks' election. In the State elec
tion of 1898. the Anti-Addicks Rrpubli
cans made an ante-election compact fol
common primaries, aud for Republican
Utility in the State Assembly, and VIC
lated it in the session of the Assembly
that followed. These things prove ,ha
the program here given and part o
which has already been carried out, il
the Anti Addicks program.
I n further proof is needed to satisfy
any Republican searcher for the truth il
this matter, the Auti-Add,ck cks State com
mittee furnished it when il demanded
tha. Mr.. Addicks should be driven from
tie politics of the Safe as the price o
Republican unity and success. Furthe
proof of this was furnished by Colone
ii. A. du Pont in his address to the Anti
Addcks State Central Committee, wher
lie commanded that there should be n,
unity with Union Republicans unles
Mr.. Addicks was eliminated from tina
party and it's politics, and still further b.
his declaration in the corridor of tn
IJtel Richardson. that "there must b
10 c)mpromise with Addicks."
All this proves conclusively that th
obj4c of the Anli-Addicks campaign i
not the election of Republican Stat
ticket, is not the election OF Republical
legislature, but the eltc.ion OF Col. d,
