The Philadelphia Inquirer is letting
its solicitude for Addicks run away
with its reason. There is no warrant
for its statement that hundreds Of Re
publicans are going over to the Demo-
Gratis because Of the strife between Re-
publicanism and Addcksism. The Re
publicans Of Delaware are true to their
party organization and party principles.
They cannot be driven to the Demo-
cratic ranks. II the Inquirer had
stated that hundreds OF voters who
heretofore have been identified with
the Addicks movement now are CO.
operating with the Republicans to put
an end to the intolerable political con-
ditions resultant from the continued
presence of Addicks in Delaware poll
lies 1t would have been nearer right

From the Sussex Republican.
The Republicans Of the state are not
changed by the decision Of the Ma
tional Convention. AS matter OF fact,
the decision has increased their cour-
age, and they are more determined than
ever to defeat the "gasman." II is
possible that there may be few weak
kneed individuals who, controlled by
selfish notions, may be willing to bow
the knee and wear the Addicks collar,
but If such is the case, they are afraid
to say so. 1t Is a matter of congratu-
lation that the stand taken by the Re
publican delegates of this state in their
refusal TO compromise with Addicks
should receive the approval of all Re-
publicans who they were sent to rep
resent. II Is proof that they were true
representatives Of the sentiment Of op.

City Council should not delay action
on the ordinance prepared by the
Board OF Police Commissioners and
Chief OF Police Dolan to regulate the
sale and use of fireworks. From year
to year there has been tendency on
the part Of manufacturers to increase
the explosive force OF their wares until
to-day contrivances which are posi-
lively deadly are made and sold to the
detriment of personal and public safe
ty Chief among these are the dyna-
mite frecracker and torpedo Hun
dreds OF accidents, many OF them fatal,
result every year in this country from
their careless or vicious use, and our
city has had its full share Of such acci-
dents. Now is the time to act for safe
ty in the future. The sale of such high
explosives not only should be prevent
ed. but there should be a penal clause
directly affecting any person who in
jures another by setting of a giani
cracker or a dynamite torpedo. Fun /.

triotic demonstration, but the element,
of manslaughter ought to be eliminated

BRYAN Ann EREE SnuER

Bryan, reputation and treason have
triumphed. BY unanimous vote the
Democratic National Convention last
night reaffirmed its adherence to the
impossible proposition OF 16 TO 1; de-
nounced the United States Government
for its heroic and patriotic efforts to
bring peace and prosperity to Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Philippines, and
nominated William Jennings Bryan for
president on this platform OF his own
selection If not construction.
It is well that the issues are defined
so clearly. On the one side we have
William Mckinley, the champion OF
stable currency. national prosperity
and a LIBERAL patriotic and sensible
administration Of the affairs Of those
islands in the Atlantic and Pacific
which came into our keeping as a re-
suit Of a successfully-conducted war
against Spain in behalf OF humanity.
On the other side we have William Jen-
nings Bryan, the champion of fiat
money, financial disaster, business de-
preston, commercial ruin and treason
able policies at home and abroad.
There is no middle ground. The line
between the two parties is too broad
for a straddle, Every American voter
must be on one side or the other in this
momentous struggle which permits no
compromise with self. Behind McKin-
ley we have those who believe in hon
est money, the business welfare OF the
nation and the integrity and dignity of
the American flag. Behind Bryan we
have Democrats, Populists, Silver Re
publicans, Socialists. Anarchists and
the political riff-raff OF the country.
The most dangerous elements in the
body polite of the nation are repre-
sented in his candidacy and the plat
form upon which he stands. They
constitute menace to the social. po-
litical, financial and business interests
and institutions OF the country. De-
feated once. they renew the assault.
In this emergency, as In the past, the
hope OF the nation is found in the Re
publican party, and we have that abid-
ing faith in the people which warrants
the prediction that in the face Of this
danger they will comport themselves
as becomes true Americans and ad-
minister second and even more crush
ing defeat to these political marplotl
who have prosttuted the Democratic
organization to their base and ruinoul
purposes and driven out of the part,
hundreds Of thousands OF men who
while differing from the Republicans IN
principles and policies. would not lenC
themselves to the sinister purpose,

that building must be finished. and
that the sooner it is done, the better it
will be for the educational interests Of
the city. To call Chief Justice Lore "a

nor just, and is condemned by all who
know the utter unselfshness which

We shall not waste words about the

1t is a disgrace to the members of the
Credentials Committee who voted for
it, and to their ill-advisers-high or
