CARNIVALETTES.

Two enthusiastic carnival girls were
seen on Market street yesterday after.
noon. They wore royal purple skirts
and white shirt waists.
Assistant Director General Grantley P.
Postles is a popular man about the
grounds. As the school children entered
Industrial Street yesterday, he Joined in
the applause which greeted them.
Two colored school children waited
over two hours Yesterday afternoon be-
fore the gates of Industrial street seeking
admission. They were in the parade,
but failed to get to the gates in time.
Sergeant Rice noticed them and saw that
they got in.
The school children who paraded yes.
terday were entertained on the Midway
by the Bostock aggregation.
School Director Thomas F. O'Donnell
got ready for the carnival by shaving of
his moustache. His friends did not know
him when they saw him on the Midway
yesterday.
Harry Collins and "Porky" Kane who
are selling the official Elks Fair and
Carnival programs at the main entrance
to the Carnival are attracting much at
tention these days. The boys have q
line of talk which would do credit to any
street fakir in the business and offer most
any old kind of an inducement to sell
their programs.

The people who seem to be most cha
grned and troubled over the seating of
the Union Republican delegates in d e
National Republican Convention. are the
Democrats. Every Evening set up a
wall over it yesterday, and put out pc
tition for union between the "regulars"
and the Democrats, for the purpose OF
Cefeating the Union Republicans. Ii
says:
BY thorough union of honest Demo-
crats and honest Republicans the Ad-
dicks Republicans can be defeated in
Delaware this year. And such union
is the only safe and sure method Of ac-
complishing the desired effect.
By what process is it possible to make
a thorough union of an honest Republi-
can with any kind OF "a Delaware Demo-
crat? And by what process could such
union be made between an honest
Democrat of the Delaware variety with a
Republican?
The proposition is simply absurd. Fire
and water will not mix. As general
proposition that may be accepted as
true, when fire and water come together
one or the other must get out OF the way.
The same is true in politics, There are
no affinities between Republicanism and
Democracy.

EVERY EvENING's proposition for a
union Of Republicans and Democrats is
made impossible by the conditions inn
posed. Only "honest" varieties of these
political specimens are to be accepted.
Now we presume the Democrats would
want to select the honest Republicans,
and the Republicans would want to select
the honest Democrats. How many
would that party number? And which
division OF the party would have the
majority OF the bakers dozen? The
proposition makes it evident that either
the Democratic party, or Every Evening
has no political principles worth defend
ing.
