fair count. Nothing short OF that will
satisfy them, and they will go TO any

Bryan's managers here have been
driven to the extremity Of consulting
a clairvoyant to ascertain whether or
not their idol will carry Delaware this
year. Down in Sussex county, there
resides an old woman named Anne
Polk. She is represented TO be a cen
tenarian. Some ignorant and super
stitioua persons believe she is en-
dowed with power to look into the
future. Her friends give her credit for
having foretold the Civil and Spanish
American wars, and now that she says
that Bryan will carry Delaware by a
big majority the Democratic State

Bryan was defeated. Mckinley was

aged to keep himself before tn,

sion. There were many prominent
Democrats who wanted to relegat,
Free Silver to the rear. Mr.. Bryan de
manded that the Chicago platform b,
reaffrmed. There was a big fight II
the Committee on Resolutions, and b,
one majority the Free Sllverites car
ried through Bryan's demand. In al
attempt to conciliate those who wer'
opposed TO such reaRirmation, and ais,
to fool the Sound Money Democrats
anti-expanslon was declared to be th1
leading issue. But the only real lgh
in Kansas City waA en- the question o
whether or not Free Silver should b
endorsed once more, and Free silye
won.

down there IN this wise: I'VE heart
lily cencur in the statement Of the
Chronicle that it is the duty Of the
Republicans of Kent and Sussex tc
agree upon a legislative ticket and
then, unitedly, to support it, leaving
the question of the election of United
States senators to the Legislature. We
go further and say that anyone who
would put a straw in the way of an
honorable agreement would be un-
worthy of being termed a good Re
publican. But to ask the Regular Re
publlcans to withdraw their ticket and
swallow the Addicks ticket entire Is
a gratutious insult, and is either made
