HARMONY PROPOSALS REIEcIFp


Earnest efforts made by the Republl-
cans OF New Castle county to obtain
harmony have been frustrated by order
Of j. Edward Addicks. The chairman
OF the Union Republican County Com
mittee has rejected the proposals made
by representatives OF the Republican
County Committee for common primar-
les in this county, and Addicks lead
ers are saying openly that they will
put an independent ticket in the field
and give the county to the Democrats
if the Republicans do not agree to sup
port the Addicks state ticket and also
the Addicks county tickets in Kent and
Sussex counties.
For months the Addicks leaders and
newspapers have been declaring their
wish for harmony and assuring the
people that they would do anything in
reason to obtain it. And yet, when
the Republican Committee Of New
Castle. county sends to them a proposal
20 enter into common primaries for all
county and hundred Offices. they reject
II with scant courtesy and say that
they want no harmony here unless the
County Committee OF this county will
force the Republican State Committee
and the Republican County Commit
tees in Kent and Sussex counties TO
accept tickets already set up by Ad-
dicks and by him partially announced
in advance OF both the primaries and
the convention. In other words, they
ask the Republican committee OF
New Castle county TO dictate the policy
Of the Republican State COMMITTEES
with respect to the state ticket, an,
the policy Of the County Committees il

20 the county tickets there. The

With that power they have made &

Heard in a Balloon.

j. NJ Bacon, the Englishman who,

things about the sounds that reached
their ears. At height of 5000 feet
the ringing of horses feet on hard
road could be heard. At 1000 feet
the splashing sound made by ducks
in a pond was audible. The barking
of dogs and the growing of cocks
could be heard at 1000 or 5000 feet.
These sounds penetrated through a
white floor of cloud which hid the
earth from sight. In the perfect 81

The Storm.

That night a terrible storm burst
over the devoted vessel. Herbert was
awakened from his troubled slumbers
by the din overhead, and, hastily put
ting on his clothes, rushed above to dis
cover the cause of the tumult.
Beneath Sky Of inky darkness lit
ever. and anon by the lurid CLEAN Of
lightning. the Ocean Queen was strug-
Cling onward against the mountainous
pillows that reared their angry foam.
crests in her path. The canvas already
hung in tatters from the bending
masts; the engines groaned and creak-
ed as they labored onward. while the
hoarse tones Of the captains speaking
trumpet, echoed by the shouts of the
roar of the angry waves.
There had been night alarms before
during the voyage, but never one like
this. Captain, officers and sailors
seemed thoroughly aroused by sense
of immediate danger, and worked witt,
the fierce energy of men who We're
working for their lives.
"Will you lend hand at the pumps!'
said the second mate, in cautious
tone. as Herbert reached his side. 1.-The
men are pretty well worn out, and we
can't spare any more hands there just
now. We don't want panic in the
steerage if we can help it; but the YES
sells sprung leak. and we're off one
of the worst coasts in Christendom."

the significant reply, land the fires are
pretty near out. We can't make head
way against gale like this much long

aboard. sir. and we'll just have to dc

There was no time for further con-
yersation. A hoarse call from the cap
tain summoned the mate to his side
and Herbert took hold OF the pumps
manfully.
The sailors were working on in dog
ged, gloomy silence.
