tween the leaders of the Democratic
factions fighting for State control of
the party affairs. The climax of this
clash of interests was booked to occur
ait the Democratic State Convention
held at Saratoga ON Wednesday. 1t
did occur. THE forces of David B.
HILL and Richard S. Croker were ar
rayed against each other. But they
are both Democrats as are their
respective followers, and when the
convention nominated John B. Stanch-
field for Governor, Bird S. Coler his
opponent, for the nomination, sent to
him the following telegram: Accept
my sincere congratulations, and as
surances of earnest support. You can
command my services" This tells the
whole story. The Democrats of New
York will go into the fight with
strength united, and they will win.

From 1896 to 1900.

Speaking of the payment of wages
by a company allied with the steel
trust-$21S,000 TO 5000 employees for
two weeks work-an organ says that
the same company four years ago paid
less than half that amount in wages
to smaller number of men. The steel
trust had not then been organized.
Since 1896 the Dingley tariff has
caused an increase in the price of
steel at the mills out of all proportion
to the increased cost of production.
The increase in the cost of steel has
entered into the greater cost of all
the necessaries of life.
On AN average the cost of living has
been increased 25 per cent by the oper-
ations of the Dingley tariff in the price
of steel and other protected products.
Many necessaries of life have been in
creased from 80 to so per cent in cost
The immense profits made by the
steel industry and other protected in
dustries have enabled them to pay a
larger amount in wages and Ito in
crease in a small degree the rate of
wages. But every increase of 5 per
cent in the rates of wages has been ac-
companied by an increase of % per
cent in the price of products.
The general public have paid five
times over in THE price of trust pro-
ducts the increased amount of wages
paid by the trusts The employees OF
the trust industries have paid more in
the increased cost of living than any
increase in their wages.
That is all that the increased wages
argument amounts to.-Chicagc
Chronicle.

BRYAN THE NATIONS HOPE.

Herbert Welsh, of Philadelphia, is a
man of national reputation. Though a
leading Republican, he has for years
been an ardent advocate of better
government for the municipality of
Philadelphia, and has done excellent
work in this direction. He is the ed
itor of "City and State,' a reform
paper which has an extensive circu-
lation among the better class of
citizens in both Philadelphia and
throughout the State. The editorial
columns of the paper have always
heretofore been in the interest of the
Republican party, urging naturally
higher methods of party control.
To-day, however, Mr.. Welsh is
squarely advocating the election of
Mr. Bryan. Editorially in a recent
issue of his paper he says:
I'VE have already definitely stated
that in our Judgment it was the duty
of the citizen to abstain from voting
for the reelection of Mr.. Mckinley
We now go further, and say that in
our Judgment the most direct and eff.
fectiye way to meet what we regard
as the supreme issue of the election
is to vote for Mr.. Bryan. We do thi:
deliberately, well knowing what it will
cost u.s. But We can mot say less ant
keep a clear conscience, fulfilling oul
duty to our country and to our readers
We started with the determination no
to withhold from the public through
fear or favor belief which the publ,
had a right Ito be informed of. wv,
hope to be able to keep true to
now"
There are thousands of men in thi
country like Mr.. Welsh who, havin!
the courage of their convictions, ar
expressing them.

KENT COUNTY CONVENTION.

The work of the Democratic County
Convention, of Kent, which assembled
in Dover ON Thursday, in every way
upheld the record made by the mag
nificent State assemblage of Tuesday.
1t seemed as though the Kent county
delegates had imbibed the enthusiastic
spirit which animated the State repre-
sentatives, and the result was that the
county gathering was full of enlthusi-
asm and earnestn'ess. The State Con-
vention had set the pace, and the
county convention measured up to it
in every way. Determination Ito Sc
lect the very strongest men for all
the offices to be filled was evident and
this determination ruled in the con-
ventions work.
From every locality men came here
infused with the sentiment that there
was every chance for the Democracy
of old Kent to win and that the con-
servation of county affairs demanded
Democratic victory.
The initiative step toward improv-
ing ON the opportunities presented and
toward making probable victory an
assured facts was decidedly taken by
the convention in selecting candidates.
The ticket is a strong one, very strong
in all its parts. 1T is a representative
Kent county Democratic ticket, COM
posed of sound, strong, influential,
trust worthy well-known citizens. "A
ticket whose membership presents
these features will attract support

of the gentlemen composing it proves

WHAT THE ENEMY CONDEMNS
THE PARTY ENDORSES.

According to the Wilmington
journal the Chairman of the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee has
not the confidence or support of his
party in this campaign. The Journal
says this repeatedly, and every time
it repeats it, under the direction of its
Republican owners, 1T piles on addi-
tional emphasis. Unfortunately for
the journal and its disgruntled owners,
the more emphatic lit becomes in its
assertions, the more strikingly do THE
voters and workers in the Democratic
party give the direct lie ito its ut
terances. For instance, on the very
eve of the State Convention of Tues
day the journal published funereal
essay exultingly claiming that at last
this enemy of the Republican party
and lis methods had met his waterloo.
A few hours after this publication was
issued the hosts of Democracy, gather
ed at THE State Capital, unanimously
endorsed their State Committee IS
Chairman and enthusiastically con-
graduated him ON the work he and
his aides were performing. Not only
from his own county did this endorse
ment spontaneously come, but KEN
and Sussex WED with New Castle in
expressing it. Mr. Willard Salisbury
is recognized from one end of the Statv
to the other as a Democratic leader
whom the Republicans fear, and hiatt
as deeply and as earnestly as they feat
him. His party associates OF
Tuesday, unsolicited, rendered hin
commentator and cooperation
in many ways, and NO doub
he feels this cooperation ant
endorsement is much strengthened b,
the howls of his enemies.

PROMPT AID NEEDED.

Because of the awful calamity which
befell the city of Galveston, Texas, on
Sunday last, there lis direct need of
prompt aid to relieve suffering. The
story of the wreck and ruin wrought
by wind and wave is heartrending.
The bodies of the thousands who lost
their lives are being carried out to the
Gulf by ship load as lit is impossible
to otherwise dispose of them. The
survivors are left shelterless, helpless
and starving.
The great American cities of the
North are rushing aid ito their suffer-
ing Southern brethren as fast as
steam can carry it. Delawareans
noted for their lberality will share in
this Gods work. Want need only be
known here to command prompt re
lief. With the fact that aid is need
ed in Texas to mitigate awful suffering
before them we have no doubt ouI
people will heartily and quickly re-
spond.

Rooseve1t's Correct Picture.

Rev. Dr. Silas Swallow, of Harris
burg, tells the Prohibitionists ait At
lanta City this distressing truth:
probe Gov. Roosevelt deep enough
and you will find the demagogue. His
courage is a combination of mere
and covetousness, prompting
man ito refuse inferior honors ON
principle to-day and capitulate to-
morrow to political bosses for Those
same honors, including larger ones in
the dim distance. The time lis coming
when a sombrero, brace of pistols
and the ability Ito ride bucking
bronco will mot be commended as the
highest type of Americanism."

The TREMED0US COST
OF HOLDING ELECTIONS.
Ten Million Dollars Spent For Less
Than Four Weeks Politics in
q Small Araa.
(Flrom Saturday Evening Post.)


(Flrom Saturday Evening Post.l
Great Britain hals certain election
laws which restrict the candidate and
make him account for all his expendi-
tures; these were made necessary by
the frightful corruption into which the
suffrage of England had descended.
but if any one imagines that they have
corrected all the evils he is very much
mistaken.
The present writer was i'm England
during the last general election in that
county and he went into the local de-
tails of the election machinery. He
found that in the small matters Of
politics,in the getting of votes through
influence, money and other means, the
English politician was several miles
ahead of anything that we have in
America. In fact, some of the candi-
dates had been nursing" their con-
Stituencies for all the seven years
since the former general election i'm
that country. There is no doubt that
our politicians do bribe and buy, but
they do lit ON the moment. They do
not generally have Ito purchase years
of servitude in orderto get the suffrage
of a day In England the nursing
system keeps the distribution of
wealth in progress for years.
The writer put the following ques-
tion to the editor of one of the leading
newspapers of London:
"How much do you estimate this
election will cost the candidates for
Parliament?' p
He made some calculations on a pad,
and then replied:
Curious, isn't lit, that it has never
struck me before? Why, find a total
here of two million pounds"
"Ten million dollars for less than
four weeks politics in an area THAI
could be safely placed in one of oul
States makes an American feel rather
small"
''Wel1, at amy rate, we have better
laws than you have, even if we dc
spend the money"
OF course, i'm this country we spent
more than ten millions ON Presi
denEial election. When WE consider
all the local expenss and all the run
ming of campaigns and candidates th,
total must amount Ito several timev
ten millions, but we must remembel
that it spreads over the finest empirv
in THE world and leads Ito the election
of the greatest executive on earth.

A SPLENDID PLATFORM.

The platform adop.ed by the Demo-
cratic State Convention ON Tuesday,
which was published in full in our
issue of Wednesday, is document
that will claim more than a mere
cursory perusal from our readers. 1t
is presentation of principles as clear
as it is comprehensive, and speaks lof
State issues as Democrats are accus-
toned to place their proposed policies
before the people, plainly and to THE
point There is no superfuous
verbage in this Democratic platform,
every paragraph of it contains subject
matter for thoughtful consideration.
After pledging the support of the
party in this State to the National
platform and candidates, and pointing
to the beneficent care of State
affairs which has always followed
Democratic control thereof, the plat
form boldly strikes an issue in which
every Delaware voter has an interest
the subject of registration. That
ehere is much room for improvement
in the present method of securing full
qualification to exercise the right of
franchise, the constant complaint
against the present method from many
sources distinctly proves. The system
itself contains many desirable features
for the guarding of the franchise
privilege, but there are matters of
detail that could be improved upon.
The Democratic party pledges itself in
the platform promulgated ito consider
this matter and give to it the best
thought of the party.
The public scnool system, always of
interest to THE Democratic party of
Delaware, lis touched upon in an intel
ligent way. That there is need for a
considerable remodeling of the system
at present in vogue, is proven by the
fact that in many sections of the State
our school children have been robbed
of several weeks tuition because OF
lack of funds to continue the schools
to the limit of the terms. A vital issue
is this and the Democratic party is
pledged to give it thorough attention
The fixing of stated salaries for al
State and county officials is a move
ment in the right direction, as is tht
pledged support to improve our high
ways.
1T is in its entirety a platform tina
must attract the thinking voter, ant
the more closely its features ar
studied the more worthy of suppor
will lit be found.

y Any Democrat will be forced to oc-
