POLITICAL CRIMES BY ADDlcKs

Any Delaware Republican Of even or
binary intelligence can frame a most
damaging indictment against j. Ed
ward Addicks
BY keeping men out Of caucus in
1895 he prevented the reelection OF
Anthony Higgins TO the United States
Senate and blocked the election OF any
one else. Two years later he gave the
Democrats control Of the Legislature
and made possible the election of Rich
ard r. Kenney to the Senate. In the
Spring of 1899 he deadlocked the Re
publican Legislature and prevented the
election OF Republican to succeed
Senator George Gray. In June follow
ing he set up an independent ticket in
the city Of Wilmington, defeated the
Republican candidates from mayor
down, and gave the Democrats a
sweeping victory
This year he continued his work OF
disruption and his party workers en-
deavored to defeat Republican candi-
dates in several Of the legislative dis
tricts.
Now he asks to be sent to the UniteC
States Senate as a reward for his po
llitical perhdy, and threatens not only tC
deadlock the Legislature again, but als'
to prevent Wilmington from obtaining
an appropriation for the improvement
Of the Christiana river and to give tn
city election to the Democrats ono
more # it is refused him.
That II will be refused goes with
out saying. 1t will remain for Con
gress to say whether or not an appro
priation shall be denied, and for tn
. voters Of Wilmington to say whethe
or not Addieks shall be permitted, 4
= the city election, to repeat his perform
ance Of June. 1899.
There is nothing to fear. Addick
will be defeated by the Legislature
d then Congress viii give whatever it
IS going TO give us fcr harbor improve
, ments; and next June the Republieae
Is Of Wilmington will put the finishir
r touches on Mr.. Addicks' checkered q,
It litical career

MORE AMENDMENTS RECOMMENDED

The United States Senate yesterday
devoted nearly the entire legislative
day to discussion Of the Hay-Paunce-
fote treaty, The Committee on For
eign Relations recommended further
to the treaty, declaring
that it supercedes the Clayton -Bulwer
treaty andstrikingou out the article which
permits the submission of the treaty
to other Powers for their acceptance.
The House only disposed of about
half of the War Revenue Reduction
bill. General debate was concluded,
however. A determined effort was
made to reduce the tax on beer below
the rate of SLIGO a barrel, but the
Ways and Means Committee over
whelmed the opposition. The COM
mittee, however, sustained two signal
defeats. The clause designed to abolish
small beer packages was defeated, and
an amendment was adopted restoring
the tax on express receipts and reQuir-
ing the express company. instead of
the shipper, to pay the tax.

DON'T

Don't be afraid. The bark Of Ad-
dicks is much worse than his bite
Don't be worried by famboyant
statements emanating from Addicl1s
headquarters. Remember, the Union
Republican party is inflated with gas.
Don't attempt to dodge an Addlcks
club. Meet It half way with smile
It is stuffed and looks much more for
midable than Il really is.
Don't fail to discount Addicks
claims OF strength by at least thirty
per cent. Base your calculations on his
claims in past years.
Don't be bluffed by an Addicks man
who wants to bet One Of the private
advisors Of the gasman hid his thous-
and dollars very quickly a few days
ago when his bluff was called.
Don't forget that Addicks cannot
muster enough votes in the approach
ing session of the Legislature 10 elect
him to the United States Senate.
Don't let anybody put the idea into
your head that he can, for It is a mis-
taken notion.

railroad earnings continue to show
moderate gains over 1899. The ce-

Trade says: Holiday trade has in
creased moderately, and in a whole
sale sample lines no relapse is seen
either In volume Of transactions or in
prices. Cold weather has helped New
York, but is still behind the rest of
the country, for some recent losses
from failures in the textile markets
have fallen rather heavily here. In
dustrial conditions continue strong.
with no great accumulation of new
goods in any quarter. In spite OF the
break in cotton the market for fabrics
is still in good condition, sellers hay

Railroad earnings for the first week
OF December indicate a gain of 90 per
cent. over last year and 1868 over 1898.
Bank exchanges at New York for the
week are 6.S per cent larger than last

the young woman make up the list OF
those eligible for charter membership,
each contributing her share to the gem
eral list in proportion to her conquests
and reflections. The list so composed
is placed in the hands OF some jilted
lover who is in a desperate frame Of
mind and he makes a canvass Of those
who wear the faded rose and sit be-
meath the cypress. AS a general thing
he has little trouble in forming a
lodge. Any member of the brother
