SECOND THE MOTION.

There Is no occasion for pee3Mihg tx
cited over the political situation IN De'a
ware. Whatever IL done in he djrectl j
of nominating candidates for Office must
be done according 10 strict observance
of law and with a determination to select
tbe best possible men fir Hifice. Each
party should make earnest attempts to
put before the people men who are
known and can be trusted, il elected, to
perform their duties with fidelity and
With yieE solely OF giving good SET
vice Morning News.
What is advised in the above quo.l-
lion is just what, and is all, the Union
Republicans have been contendine for.
During all the period Of disastrous party
division in this State they have kept
cool, calm and persistent foi the obstrv.
ance Of the Law OF party rule and
nsage--maio rule in the constitute
and control OF party conventions, t! e
making of party rules, and in the selec-
lion OF candidates. In pursuit OF this
policy they have obeyed the law; have
appealed to it in justification of their
claims and have been awarded what they
asked by the courts.
In She present very interesting coLdi-
iion OF things political, when the politi.
cal future OF the State hangs in balance
shat may swing permanently to one sice
or the other of the contention betwet n
Republicans and DEMOCRATS, the Union
Republicans are not excited, nor are
shey unseemly anxious over the result
10 be achieved. They propose to dc
their whole duty, do it as we'll as they
can and accept the responsibility foi
doing it.
In pursuit of this policy there is nc
obligation OF party usage, rules, OF
statute law that they are not willing tc
meet and fill as becomes good citizens
striving for the good of the State. II
view, however, of the Importance Of The
coming election and the recognized op
portunties for Republican success, the
Union Republicans are earnestly seek
ing the cooperation of all voters who be
live that the welfare OF this State de
mands the defeat Of the Democratic
party; they have thrown down ever!
obstructive barrier and invited every
voter, without regard to previous part.
relations, to fair and equal parLicipa
tion in their party primaries and conven
,ions Having done this it is reasona
bic to suppose that all voters who desir
TO defeat the Democratic party will &C
rept the invitation given and join in tn
necessary work to that end. The reali
ration of this reasonable suppositiol
will assure Democratic defeat. 1t is pos
sibIe. More than that, it is probabl
and only needs the acquiescence of voter
who, without calling themselves Unio
Republicans, agree to work for Demo
cratic defeat, to make it certain.
With, or without this help the Unio
Republicans will work steadily and hon
satly for Republican victory in Novem
ber.

SOUTH AFRICAN HORSE FEVER,
veterinarians Puzzled as to the
Cause of the MaIady

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 27.-Dr. L P.
o'Connor, veterinary to the British army
in South Africa, will leave here in a few
days to continue his studies of the pecu-
liar disease that has broken out amolg
American horses in Africa and that Is
causing such heavy losses. 1t is in con-
sequence of these losses that the British
War Department has been unable to
cease its purchases of horses in the
United States, as il expected TO do, and is
compelled to keep on buying to supply the
deficiencies.
American veterinarians are puzzled to
know the exact nature of the ailment
II attacks the horses from this country
and does not trouble the native stock. The
belief IS that the disease is a kind OF
malaTial fever. 1t is slow and debiltat-
ing and soon pulls the victim down to
skin and bones The South African fever
Is the newest thing in veterinarian circles
O'Connor says:
I'VE do not understand it very well.
When the animal is covered at night it
does not contract the fever, but as soon
as exposed TO grass, heavy with dew. then
it succumbs."
DR.. O'Connor believes that the disease
is similar to pinkeye, or acclimated fever.
The British War Department has sent
some Of the ablest veterinarians, Ameri-
cans as well as British, TO South Africa in
the hope Of solving the problem and find
ing a cure for a malady which is causing
II n loss of 81 geo. eco month.
