Holland. of this town, has inherited
considerable of his fathers eloquence'
besides having developed a big bump
of originality; and though a very
young man, he has already addressed
several Democratic meetings in Kent

has appeared on the platform with
men of national reputation as speak
ers, and in every case has made a mos
excellent impression on his hearers A

speech made by Mr.. Holland at Frank

Spurred TO infamy by the knowledge
Of impending defeat, the local Demo
Gratis last night attempted TO lure one
hundred oolorcd voters in South VII
mington on board a steamboat, alleged
TO be owned in whole or in part by
Billy Thompson, the notorious
Duke of Gloucester" for the purpose
of carrying them down the Delaware
bay and keeping them there until af-
ter the polls closed this evening.
Prize fights and beer were the induce
ments held out by the Democrats to
get the colOred voters aboard the
steamer, and but for the vigilance OF
the Republican leaders who discovered
the scheme, il might have been sue
ccssful in whole or in part The par
ticular object Of this Democratic trick
was TO reduce the Republican vote in
the First representative district to such
proportions that James Kitchen. the
Republican candidate for representa-
tive, would be defeated by ,. Prince
Foard the Democratic candidate At
the same time, the entire national
state and county tickets would have
felt the effect had success attended
the effort
1t is especially unfortunate that the
Democratic leaders who originated this
outrageous scheme involved the Lib
erty Fire Company in it, and we think
the members of that organization
should protest against branch Of our
admirable Volunteer Fire Department
being dragged into such political filth.
