REPUBLICANS WORK
FOR SINGLE TICKET
Executive and State Com.
mitteeS in Session in
Dover To-day

Special Dispatch to Evening Journal.
Dover, Sept. 14.-A meeting of the
Republicans in the interest Of harmony
is being held here to-day.
The Republican State Committee met
this morning and requested the resig-
nations of Candidates Burris, Norman,
Ball. Willis and Smith. All will con-
sent to resign.
The Executive Committee was in
structed to confer and decide whether
it was advisable to name a ticket to-
day.
They will report to the State Com
mittee this afternoon.
The Executive Committee of the
Union Republican State Committee is
here and is awaiting the action of the
Republicans.
DR. Caleb r. Layton said that the
Union Republicans would consider any
proposition made by the Republicans.
A canvass among the Republicans
showed that they are in favor of Harry
a. Richardson fer governor and VIII
liam S. Hilles for Congress.
The Addicksites prefer HUM for
governor and Layton for Congress, but
it is thought that they have decided to
accept the Republicans proposition.
There seems to be no doubt but that
a ticket will be named this afternoon.
Since the Republican State Commit
tee went into session at 1.30 o'clock it
is rumored that the heads of the har-
mony ticket will be HUM for COVER
nor and Hilles for Congress, as the Ad-
dlcksites have declared they will not
accept Richardson. Burris may be Of

Sir. Referring to an article in your
paper concerning Howard Longs turn

better understood by your readers. DIR.
Burton went over to Milton and com
bined with those people and agreed on
delegates for S. Warrington. This did
not suit ID. Coverdale, and his friends.
Milton had the representative in 1898.
Coverdale and his friends contended
that Lewes was entitled to it this time
Dr. Burton has become so unpopular
that he could not find a man in Lewes
he could dictate to and he had to 90 to
Milton. This combination had to be
broken. COverdale and his friends made
a fight for delegates, and invited Long
to join. Long still had faith that BUR-
ton would elect his delegates. which he
did, and he would be nominated. When
met in Georgetown in convention, Long
was not mentioned. Coverdale made it
so hot that they dropped Warrington.
The Milton delegates agreed on Samuel
Lank, after they found they were beat
en-. LeWes has three delegates and Mil
ton has two. Burton. having three dele
gates, obtained the nomination for
Brewer, (which is unpopular The Mil
ton people declare they will not sup
port a man who was nominated
through such deception. I trust these
facts may give your readers a better
idea how politics is run down in Sus-
sex in the Tenth district. We have
men that pretend to be great harmon
lzers when in Wilmington, but at home
they care nothing for party, only self
interest.

cussions that take place regarding the
question of harmony.
A large delegation Of Wilmingtonians
and New Castle county Republicans went
to Dover on the S.13 train. 1t is not in

Action will be taken on the result Of
the conference on Wednesday in this city
The Republicans will not recede from tho
position which they took on Wednesday
by which they insisted that the candidat,

refusal to accept the intended proposition
Of the Republicans and would accept DIR

IL is the duty OF every Republican to
vote his sentiments. and under the laws
Of this state he cannot vote unless he
Is registered. AS tomorrow is registra-
ton day, we urge every Republican
who Is not registered already TO go to
the place of registration and have his
rame put on the books. National and
state issues OF grave import are in
volved in the approaching election, and
the Republican who fails to qualify
himself to exercise the prerogatives OF
an American elector is a poor party
man and a bad citizen.

Handy's speech in behalf of Cooper was
mot more disastrous to Davis than his
action in voting for him on the Black
bird hundred delegates proxy. 1t is a
nice question, and we leave it to Mr..
Handy and Mr. Davis for settlement.
Mr.. Handy should put this question to
Mr.. Davis, and demand a fat answer.
while l promised the Blackbird hun
dred delegate to vote for you, did 1
promise him not to talk for "copper""
That's the ground Mr.. Handy stands on.

IALsE IMPREssION CORRECTEp

Addicks and his cabal are trying to
convey to the public mind the impress
sion that the Republican State Com
mittoe is not working earnestly and
sincerely to bring about harmony and
one state ticket. They lay particular
stress upon the failure of the eXecu-
tive committee of the Republican State
Committee to meet the executive COM
mittse OF the Addicks State Commit
Tee ON Tuesday, as at first arranged,
and say that such failure showed dis
position on the part Of the Republ-
cans to prevent harmony and single
state ticket They make false declara-
tions and are endeavoring TO deceive
the voters. This is shown by the letter
forwarded to the chairman of the
Executive Committee of the Addicks
State Committee by Philip c. Church
man. chairman of the Executive Com
mittse Of the Republican State Com
mittee. It's text is as follows;
