LET IT EXPLAIN

We have permitted the Dover Della
warean to go the length OF its rope in
praise OF Willard Salisbury, Jr., and
outside OF glittering generalities It has
said nothing which tends to show that
Mr.. Salisbury is qualified for the posi-
tion OF a United States senator or that
ne is deserving OF 1t at the hands of
his party for any service performed.
Now we invite the Dover Delawarean
TO go into specifications. Let it show
what mental attributes Mr.. Salisbury
has which fit him so peculiarly for this
position. They may be known In Kent;
they certainly are not known In New
Castle II has been asserted by this
personal organ of the Saulsburys that
Mr.. Salisbury has shown the quallfica-
tions Of a party leader. What has he
led? When he was chairman OF the
Democratic County Executive Commit
tee certain clever work was done. but
he neither laid the plans nor carried
them to a successful contamination.
There were other men on that County
Committee and their political shrewd-
ness was what won the battles which
the Salisbury organ is claiming for its
scion at this end of the state. Patrick
Neary and men OF his political astute-
ness were the real leaders Of the
County Committee during the incum-
bency OF Mr.. Salisbury as chairman.
We have no doubt that Mr.. Salisbury
thought he was chairman and that
when the election returns came in they
represented the sum total OF his in
dividual work: but the men who really
had accomplished the things done
laughed in their sleeves at his self-es-
TEEN and said nothing. The men who
We're back OF Mr.. Salisbury, and who
established for him whateverreputation
for leadership he has gained, are
against him to-day. and he is helpless.
That is made manifest by the result OF
the recent primaries in this county.
We believe that the Dover Delawarean
recognizes that in politics there is a
certain virtue and potency in having
control OF the organization No
doubt Mr. Salisbury also recognizes IT,
Note the result OF the Democratic pri-
maries: When the County Committee
named at those primaries met for or
ganization. Patrick Neary, political
manager for Former Attorney-G General
John Biggs. was elected chairman; J
Frank Biggs. a cousin OF Mr.. Biggs
was elected secretary, and r. Bayart
Heisel. another friend OF Mr Biggs ant
an out-and-out anu-Saulsbury man
was elected treasurer. Now. We ash
the Dover Delawarean how II Is. II Mr.
Salisbury is such a potent factor II
Delaware politics, and such a shrew'
leader and manipulator. he permitte'
the Biggs men to bowl him out in tha
contest in his own city and county?

No; Representative Lentz, OF Ohio,
is not coming to Wilmington TO talk
on the horrors OF the Idaho bull pen, -
as a local Democratic contemporary
would have the public believe. He may
rail more or less at the Coer d'Alene
mines. and endeayor to stretch the
truth to the extent of connecting the
Mckinley administration with what
ever cruelties were practiced out there.
Others have tried 1t and failed; and 80
will Representative Lentz. But the
real purpose OF the visit of the Ohio
man to our city is to endeavor to put
new life into the Free Silver move
ment He comes under the auspices
OF the Democratic League OF Delaware,
which is essentially a Free Silver or
ganization. The Sound Money Demo-
Gratis here in Delaware have asserted
themselves so effectively that Former
Representative Handy. John G. Gray,
State Senator John Pyle, and other
League members are alarmed. They
feel the need OF 16 to / spell-blnder
at this particular time and Representa-
tive Lentz has been selected. He will
do the Mckinley administration no
harm; we doubt that he will do the Free
Silver cause any good. He comes too
late, for the Sound Money Democrats,
who were ostraclsed four years ago,
have seized the relns, and now they
defy the Free Silver element.

HIS MISTAKE
A. American Girl Gives an English-
man . Little Light on
Ladies'.

A Louisville girl, who was recently in
Germany, met a young English officer who
was in the same city, and, in fact, In the
same house with her for two months, study
ing German for his promotion, Like most
Europeans he had the usual absurd ideas
about the girls Of this country, who, in the
minds of the untraveled foreigner, are rather
hoyden creatures who smoke and have other
masculine traits.
After dinner one day, in the early ac-
quaintance of the couple, the officer offered
the Louisville girl cigarette, and, upon her
refusing it, he said:
"Why, 1 thought all the girls in the
United States smoked"
$50 we do" replied the girl, "but never
cigarettes; only pipes. If you will get that
pipe off the mantelpiece in the next room l
shall be charmed to smoke with you."
Not suspecting the joke she was playing
on him, the officer brought the pipe and
filled it, and it was not until he saw the wry
faces his friend made in attempting to carry
out the joke that he appreciated the situa-
ton. He was continually telling the Ameri.
can in tone of surprise that she was just
like the girls at home in England and her
rejoinder was:

NEEDED THE SOAP.
The AmiabiIity of Women Shoppers
In a Bargain Store Rush Ii
Truly Fetching.

It was at department store bargain coun-
ter for odds and ends. Women squeezed
and elbowed and showed to get alongside the
counter. Frequently two of them happened
to pick up the same bargain at one and the
same time, and then they both retained their
clutch on it and looked daggers at each other
until the stronger of the two won the vic
tory or the bargain was rent into ribbons.
A naughty matron with an electric seal
coat picked up box containing three cakes
of imported soap for eight cents at the same
moment that an humble-looking little wom-
an in a faded tan coat had fastened her grasp
on the box.
'I believe was the first to take hold of
ihis," said the matron in the electric seal
coat, freezingly.
The humb1e-looking little woman held on
for minute, studying her antagonist, then
she slowly relaxed her hold on the box.
"Well, you can have il" she said, amiably.
"You look as if you need the soap"
