COMMENT is always unnecessary in de
tense of foolish proposition.

THE Union Republican State Conyen-
ton will convene at Dover today for u G
election of delegates to represent the Re-
publicans OF Delaware in the National
Republican Convention, to convene AT
Philadelphia June 10. The preliminary
work for this convention has been quiet.
ly and harmoniously completed, indicat-
ing excellent party conditions. There
has been no break in the Union Republi-
can lines. On the contrary the conven-
ton canvas has shown decided growth
CT Union Republican sentiment. This is
true in all three counties of the State.
The preliminary reports from the seat of
the convention show that the full delega-
tions have been selected and reported
from all the districts, and that the con-
vention will be one fully representing the
Republican majority of the State; that it
will be working convention intent upon
proving itself worthy of the trust and
confidence of all sincere Republicans, in
an earnest honest effort for victory over
the Democrats at the coming general
election.
This il characteristic Of the Union R.
publican party. Its one supreme pur-
pose has been to sure Republican con-
troll Of this Stale and give it govern
ment representative of majority of the
voters at the ballot box, and of all the
people in its administrative and legisla
tive work. This party has no excuses tc
make, and no explanations to offer, jus
tiil ing its existence, its continued ef
fets and successes. It's demonstrated
loyalty to Republican principles, to tht
national Republican party, and II
proved ability TO defeat the Democrats
party, commends it TO all RepuhlicaE
who sincerely believe in rn+jority rue i
State and party affairs.
There will be nothing indirect doub.
fu or misleading in the work and decla
rations of this convention. The meetiI
Of tie State COMMITTEES last night was Al
open one to which all Union Republican
were welcome. There swas no secre
slate making, no jobs to fix up, and lik
this preliminary meeting the work Of th
convention will be in the control Of til
delegates.
This is true Republican politics. Th
auguries are good.

Of the men, Henry Taylor, alarmed at
the threatening aspect of the crowd, fired

other men we're chased by the crowds.
They took refuge in the gas works. The
police were called. and the trouble ceased.

asked for the following scale, to which
they say all but one operator has assent.

Washington, April 2.-When the house
met, Mr.. Payne IN. ", the floor leader
of the majority, presented resolution,
which was adopted, calling upon the sec
retary Of the treasury for information as
to whether the war revenue act created
surplus and all the details concerning the
revenue under that act, with estimates of
expenditures. The presentation of the
resolution, calling as it docs for informa-
tion which may furnish basis for the
reduction of the war revenues, created
considerable interest.

Twins StrnngIed to Death.

Trenton, April 2.-Male twins about
three days old were found on the bank of
the Delaware river, on the Pennsylvania
side, near the shad fisheries. The babies
had been strangled to death, and the DO
lice say they have trace of the stranger.
The suspect is a young negro woman.
The features of the murdered infants in
dicate that they were of part negro blood,
according to Morrisville's coroner but
the eyes are blue, and this has excited a
lively discussion.

Ir explicitly eyades at the start the
question of the authority of the national
convention of the party to decide as to
the legitimacy and regularity of any
State organization assuming to be the
Republican party of the State.-Evening
journal.
THE Sun evades no question relative to
the authority of the National Conven-
tion to decide as to the regularity and
legitimacy of any party organization as
suming to be the Republican party of
this State.
We explicitly deny the right of the
National Convention to reject the legally
and rightfully elected delegates from this
State, and deny its right to substitute for
these delegates, persons not legally and
rightfully elected, and who did not rep
resent the Republican party Of the State.
When the National Convention of 1896
did this, it exceeded its authority-did
what it had no right to do-and there
fore did nothing affecting the status of
parties in this State. 1t simply denied
Vic letpupllChu parry Vi tlO DpdtC IcpE6-
sentation, by its chosen delegates, in the
National Convention of that year.
The National Convention of 1896 did
not decide that the Anti-Addicks party
was the legitimate and regular Republi-
can party of this State. What does not ex-
list cannot be recognized or legitimatized.
The National Convention of 1896 did
not contemplate or intend to suggest the
formation of new party. The Anti
Addicksites did that without authority.
The boiter delegates were seated at St.
Louis as tfe representatives OF the party
represented by the convention from
witch they had bolted. In proof of this
it is only necessary to cite the fact of the
taking down of the Anti-Addicks elec-
toral ticket, under compulsion from the
National Committee, and the support
OF the Union Republican electoral candi.
dates
When the National Committee de.
cided for the Union Republican elec
torai ticket it repudiated tie claims
OF the boilers to legitimacy and regu
larity.
The Philadelphia Convention will con
e m that judgment.

Madame Modjeska will be seen at the
Grand Opera House next Saturday night,
in the character of ''Lady Macbeth" a
character by the way which in recent
years has been attempted by no other
actress of note except Ellen Terry. The
event is, therefore, the more important
though it would be hardly less SO if anv
other play from her widely ranging rep.
ertoire had been selected. Modieska's
conception of Lady Macbeth is entirely
her own, and most consistent and eff
fective one it is. In her hands, Lady
Macbeth is no yirago constantly hunting
for blood and that alone. She is woman,
capable of a woman's feeling, and ex
tremely passionate; she loves her hus-
band with the devotion worthy the great
