Pettigrew's Idea Of Honor.

Senator Pettigrew in 1892 professed
himself republican. He was elected
to the senate in 1889. He was q high
tariff republican. He was reelected
in 1895, and the following year deserted
the republican party. He was a con-
spirator against the party at the very
time he was seeking reelection at the
hands of the republican party. It does
not become him to prate of honor in
the conduct of political campaigns. He
has never trusted to the integrity
of the people of South Dakota. His
dependence has been upon tricks. If
senatorship of the United States was
ever stolen he stole the election in 1885,
He knew what was in his heart. He
knew the conspiracy he was then en-
gagged in to go over to the enemy. His
theory was that the republican party
has reached the limit of it's power. and
he schemed to get his reelection from
the republicans with the purpose we'll
defined in his mind to betray the party
in the presidential year following. He
was under suspicion at the Huron con-
vention in 1896, and he went to st.
Louis as delegate under pledge, which
pledge at the time he made it he eN-
pected to violate. And he talks of
honor in the conduct of Il political
campaign!

Work for 1t by Congressman Gamble and

The important work done by Con-
gressmen Gamble and Burke during
the last meeting of congress has been
discredited by some who desired all
the glory. This was merely the claim
of politicians, hoping to gain some po.
litical glory and accordingly take away
whatever credit should be given our
worthy congressman. The following

Omaha, who spent most of his time at
Washington in the interest Of the bill,

A Great Lecture,

DR.. S. Parkes Cadman, pastor of
the Metropolitan Temple, New York
city, delivered his lecture entitled
Lille in London before a large
audience in Union NJ. r. Church
last evening. He spoke for two
hours and the stream OF words he
poured out were never ezcelled, if
ever equalled. He is the greatest
talker, if not the greatest orator
that ever visited our city. He is a
perfect Boancrges, If not Demos
themes or Cicero. His descriptions
were vivid and his illustrations
striking, while his anecdotes were
both amusing and instructive. To
describe it we have neither time or
ability. To do it justice is impos.
sible, and therefore We shall not at.
tempt to enlighten those who failed
to hear it. The result was doubt
less satisfactory to Pastor Grise,
and we are positive that the atten-
dants will never regret the fee OF
loss of time. The audience was
dismissed by Rev. DR.. Murray,
pronouncing the benedictlon.

IahlATEREST TO-
PRESBYTERIAN
The General Conference
Willie Convene in St.
Louis May II.

Deep interest centers just at pres
ent in the General Assembly, which
will commence IN st. Lous, on May
II, and to which delegates from
this city were elected Tuesday. 1t
will be the one hundred and twelfth
General Assembly. and the ques-
tons which willcome up Tor discus.
sion will make it one of the most i'm.
'portant in the history of the church
in United States.
Three matters OF unusual impor-
lance will be considered. First Of
these is the charge brought against
DR.. McGiffert, OF the Union Theo-
logical Seminary of New York, the
institution that was once before
brought prominently before Gen.
eral Assembly in the case of DR..
Briggs. DR.. McGlffert is charged,
in the diplomatic language Of the
church Of today, with dsagreeing
with its doctrInal standards.
The charges against him was
originally laid before the New York
Presbytery by DIR. Burch. That
body thoughtit best to dismiss them,
however, admonishing the accused
minister to be more careful. DR..
Burch took an appeal to the Gen.
eral Assembly, and the case will be
laid before the larger body this
month. Should they decide to take
it up. trial, fully as interesting as
the trial of DR.. Briggs at Washing.
ton, will result.
1t may be that DR.. McGiffert will
withdraw from the church before
the case reaches the General Assem-
bly,. Many prominent ministers
have said that his proper course
would be to withdraw from 4 body
with which he cannot agree.
Two other questions of impor-
lance relate to ministerial educa-
ton and the supply of vacant
churches with pastors. The latter
it is thought, will provoke a lively
discussion. There are in all large
centres of population, many minis
~ 4" "'.hcaI Shei SSo' NhiiS III oihSA
districts there are numerous church.
es without regular pastors. The
problem before the conference will
be to get these unemployed pastors
into the pulpts Of the vacant
churches. In this connection the
question at issue will be the power
Presbvteries should have in putting
ministers over congregations.
Many delegates are expected to
favor an extension of such powers,
while others will oppose the selec-
tons Of pastors for congregations
by the Presbvteries.
The question of ministerial edu-
cation will involve some changes in
the rules Of the church with refer
ence to students for the ministry.
A committee has this question in
charge.

WITH characteristic enterprise
the Wilmington Lodge Of Elks have
made up their minds to hold the
carnival in this city in June. The
street carnival. with it's industrial
exposition and the Bostick Midway
Company will be a gigantic affair.
The director-general of the under
taking is Mr.. Robert S. Baird, who
if he is like his father, cannot help
but make the affair success. The
following corporations have already
endorsed it: Wilmington City Rail-
way Company; Wilmington City
Electric Company. the Wilmington
and New Castle Company and the
Brandywine Springs Railway Com
pany.
The week of sport will begin on
Monday when mammo 9th industri-
al parade and gorgeous pageant of
the Bostick Midway Carnival show
will take place. Tuesday will be
fraterpal day; Wednesday chill
dren's day and flower day; Thurs
day, firemen's day; Friday farm.
ers' day; Saturday everybody's
day. Every night in the week a
masked carnival will be held.
Many prominent merchants have
made application for space in the
industrial exposition. Such show
should bring hundreds of strang-
ers to our city and help all lines of
business.

STATE Chairman HughC. Browne
in presenting President Mckinley S
picture to the East Side Republic
can Club last evening, predicted
that the Republicans would win in
this State this year. He also said
that he intended to use every pound
OF pressure as Republican and
as an individual to bring about a
single ticket. the very OBJ ject and the
only object the REPUBLICAN, has had
in trying to get together under one
banner, no Regulars, no Unions,
but one grand Republican party.
He then said that any man who
stands up against the overwhelming
majority OF Republican voters dur
ing the approaching campaign,
while that majority is striving for
one ticket, will be castinto political
oblivion. II what he said is sincere
and we have every reason so to
think, the breaking Of the clouds
has commenced, whereby Delaware
will have two Republican U. S.
Senators and elect all the otfici ais,
with few exceptions, at the coming
election. 1t is only by united
party we can hope to win, and for
that object every Republican will
do his best.
