ERRONEOUS POLITICAL STATEMENT.
"Evening Journal Perverts the Truth Re.
garding the Advent of j. Edward Addicks
In Delaware Politics.

There is an old adage about lie
travelling in seven league boots, while
truth is learning to walk. The follow
ing from the EUening Journal is one
OF this kind. Notwithstandin the
statement besides being absurd on it's
race, pronounced false by Robt. J.
Reynolds as also the late Jas. L. VOL
colt, and his close friends, the editor
OF the Journal has repeated it so often
that he doubtless believes it. The fol-
lowing is the statement in its last form
IN that veraclous sheet:
when Addicks took hold politically
III Delaware his first work was to place
several thousand dollars in the hands
OF James l.. Wolcott, Sr., to be used
to defeat Harry A. Richardson, the
the Republican candidate for gov
ernor, and to elect Robert J. Reynolds,
a Democrat, to that office. Addicks
told three different men that, and they
have made affidavit to that effect. But
for him and his money, the Republi-
cans would have won in that election.
for Reynolds had narrow margin and
Addicks said he came in and saved him
'in the nick of time"
What called forth this blast of the
Journal was the following from the
Haverhill, Mass Gazette:
-. Edward Addicks took hold DO
litically when Delaware was hopelessly
Democratic. He helped more than
did any other man to tip the beam in
the opposite direction, when Anthony
Higgins slipped in and took the Sena-
torship. Since then the Delaware pur-
lists have honored themselves by elect
ing Senator Kenney, yet make wry
faces when Addicks is mentioned.
Now Addicks is neither better nor
worse than his critics. He is not in pol
itics for his health, and without him,
the Republican party in Delaware
would be in pitiful minority. HUI
namely speaking, why should he not
be given his quid pro quo? A State
that sent Kenney to the Senate surely
is in no danger from anything Addicks
may do or leave undone."

CANNERY LABOR AT CHESTERTOWN.
Excitement Among cOIOred People In Being
Replaced by Colony of Poles.

The cannery in Chestertown has
opened on vegetables. The Tran
script has the following: "Supt.
Snodgrass created some excitement in
the ranks of Chestertown's colored
population, by the importation of four
teen families of Poles (fifty persons)
and more will follow as the season ad-
vances. Mr.. Snodgrass employed
colored labor largely last year, but
found much of it of an extremely indif-
ferent quality. They did not hesitate
to stop work at he convenience, leaving
great quantities of fruit to spoil. The
prospect of work in the canneries has
much to do with the decentralization of
colored labor in Chestertown. Hun
dreds of able bodied men, women and
girls are idle in Chestertown awaiting
the cannery season, while fifty per
cent, of Chestertown's housekeepers
are without help and farmers are
actually begging the men to work, but
without success. Both housekeepers
and farmers are being forced into the
necessity of solving the local labor
problem. 1t is hoped that the decision
of Mr.. Snodgrass may tend to simplify
the matter in Chestertown.

CALIFORNIA FRUIT SCARE.
Situation May Improve the Market for Del
aware Peach This Year.

President Sprague, of the Southern
California Deciduous Fruit Exchange.
says: mo dried peaches or prunes
will be exported from southern Cali
fornia this year. The apricot crop is
also short. This great shortage is due
to unreasonable warm weather in Jan
uary, followed by cold, but not frosty
weather. The same weather condition
existed in Arizona also. This condition
of the decidious fruit crop is most dis
astrous to southern California growers
because many will have absolutely
nothing to sell this year. The trees
are now leafing out and putting on
their usual appearance so with a good
rainfall during the coming season we
may hope for full crops during another
year, except in such orchards as have
been killed or seriously injured by the
recent drought.

SALISBURY WINS DELIVERY SYSTEM.
Dover Was Defeated After One of the Most
Unique RiyaIries Recorded.

Dover has been defeated in one of
the most unique rivalries ever recorded
and the victor is Salisbury, Md, says
the Philadelphia Record.
Some months ago Senator Kenney
made vigorous efforts to get free de-
livery system for Dover. and he was
informed by the Post Office Depart
ment that the Dover post office should
have uniformed letter carriers if by
July 1st the receipts for the year should
reach $4,000. People of Salisbury
heard of the promise and demanded
and got the same terms.
Now it develops that the Dover post
office fell few dollars under $40, 900.
while the receipts of the Salisbury
post office amounted to $40, 400. Sails
bury will, therefore, have the free de-
livery system, beginning not later than
November 1st, and will be the only
town on the Peninsula except Viii.
mington so favored.

ALMOST BLIND FROM EYE TREATMENT
E. II. Atkinson Brings Suit Against DR.. Thomas
o. Clements of Dover.

E. H. Atkinson, through his at
torneys, Messrs. Ridgely and Har-
rington, has filed in the prothonotory's
office the papers in suit against DIR.
Thomas o. Clements of Dover. Some
time ago, Mr.. Atkinson got grain of
sand in one of his eyes and went to
DIR. Clements to have the sand re-
moved. After being treated by DR..
Clements, Mr.. Atkinson went to a
Philadelphia hospital, where he was in
formed that he was suffering from
diptheria of the eyes, alleged to have
been caused by germ from an instru-
ment used on his eye previous to his
entering the hospital. Mr.. Atkinson
now is almost blind, and has to be led
about. -EUening Journal.

BIsBEE, ARIz., AUGUST 30, 1900
Inf SCHOOL CENSUS.

The Bisbee school will open foi the term on September the 10th and will open under most auspl- cious circumstances There has been a judicious selection made by the board of a competent staff oi teachers, and the personnel of these teachers will recommend them tc the entire confidence of the Bisbee public.
 Tue coming school term will un- doubtedly be a successful one and the labors of these trusted trainers of our young people will, we trust be crowned with the happiest re suits.
 There is another feature of this approaching school term that ia most significant, and that is the large number of children of school age in this district as shown by the last census.
 The carefully prepared returns prove that there are 665 children in this district of school age-be' tween the ages of six and eighteen years.
 This is evidence that the popula- tion of Bisbee is that of town standing high in the list of Ari- zona cities, and it is evidence that the census of the town will be highly satisfactory to the citizens who are interested in its progress.
 That the census takers have been careful and dilligent it is to be de- voutly hoped, for on the result ot this enumeration much depends and the influence exercised by the statement as to the population oi the territory will undoubtedly greatly affect its future

IN Colorado the law which ne- cessitated the payment of a poll tax before the citizen could vote has been swept away. It was seen to be not only a hardship on the citi- zen, but a blow at one of the first conditions of our American citizen ship that a,man should vote, and
 vote untrammelled. Here the measure remains in full force, and in order to exercise the right to vote the citizen must pay tax or he cannot be registered, Here as elsewhere there are men, and good members of the community, who are not always ready to pay up the sum, and it is not convenient for many men to pull out this money
 for the right to vote too, of all
