Varicolored Bird.

The most variegated bird in the
world has lately been discovered III
India and Ceylon. No less than nine
different colors are distinguishable in
its plumage. 1t is called the nine col
ored pit.a, and with its long legs, short
tall and plump body it bears consid.
cradle resemblance to thrush. But
it's colors are gay and beautifully har.
monized.-.
It's powerful long beak is curved or
top and is generally held firmly closed.
The foot is widely spread, the middle
toe very long. The wings are shor'
and we'll rounded. The bird is alight
brown, with black stripes on the upper
part of its body. The head and sides
of the neck are black, while a white
line passes over the eyes, forming
kind of eyebrow, and the throat
and part of the back are
also white. The other parts under
the body are a yellowish brown, with
a greenish tinge. The tail and under
parts of the wings are a blush green
while the long wing feathers are q
pale blue. The tips of the shoulders
have spots of azure blue and the
pinions are black.
Their short wings do not permit any
very extended flight, and their long
legs show that much of their time il
passed on the ground, where they feed
on different kinds of beetles, which
they crush in their strong beaks.
Shy and difficult to approach, they
are generally found in the bush OF the
uplands singly except at breeding TIM
and while the brood is still young
The natives of India call this bird
''Nourang."

COME OUT OF sODoM

No one doubts that there are many
men who In the past have acted with
the Addicks party who are sincere Re
publicans, and who are ashamed Of his
political methods. By various means
they have been beguiled and misled
into the Addicks camp. Some OF them
are men OF standing and character. In
business or other affairs of life, they
would not think OF sanctioning the cor
ruptlon they now close their eyes TO in
the party with which they are affili-
ated But the missionaries OF Addicks-
ism have sung to them in season and
out OF season that the only way to win
elections is by corrupting the voter,
and that Democrats are corrupt and
only can be beaten by greater corrup-
tion. These Addicks missionaries have
sneered at the idea OF there being any
such thing as pure political reform or
decency in public life. AS a result
many men OF fair mind and good in
tentlons have become morally twisted,
They do not mean to be. They would
rather have success by decent and rep
utable means than by foul and dis
reputable means, II they could, but they
have been taught that they can't, and
they have forgotten that there must be
in every party that succeeds, a large
share OF honesty, virtue and public
spirit, or 1t will not long survive. To
all such persons we say, Come out OF
Sodomi"
The trouble with the Addicks party
is that II has from the beginning been
without virtue. honesty, or public
spirit. IL has been a corrupt, selfish,
disloyal aggregation, whose only OBJ
iect has been TO crafty the ambition
OF one man. Its days are numbered
It is tottering TO its fall Now is the
time for those who are cognizant OF
its corruption and inherent weakness
to cut loose from It before they are
buried still deeper In the mire. There
Is no better time than the present to
return to the Republican party; to
leave the brazen image OF Adicksism
and be men, holding up their heads
with ability TO look their fellowmen
in the face and ayow without shame
who they support and whore they
stand.
This is their golden opportunity tC
get right politically. The scandaloul
proceedings Of the Addicks party In tn,
last Legislature are more than enough
IL nothing had gone before, to convince
honest citizens that a change is imper
ative If they would retain their Repub
llcanism. their honor and their man
hood.

NEWSPAPER OPINION
New Harmony Proposition

From the Dover Index.
The Milford News and Advertiser, an
organ of the Regular Republican fac
tion, comes out with harmony propo-
sition in its recent issue. IL proposes
that the Regulars will agree not to vote
for Colonel Henry A. DUPONT for
United States senator II the Union Re
publicans viii bind themselves to give
up Addicks.
While this is the first time that such
a proposition has been made in just so
many words, it is after all simply what
the Regulars have striven to show by
their acts in the past.
In the late legislative session, the
Regulars sought to demonstrate their
independence Of any one man candi-
dacy by voting for a dozen different
Republicans, while the Addicks men
continued to tie themselves from start
TO finish TO the candidacy Of one man
alone
It is not probable that the proposal in
question was made with any idea or
hope of an acceptance, but solely for
the purpose of demonstrating TO the
public the complete control exercised
by Addicks over the faction.
Whether or not Colonel DUPONT him
self gave his individual sanction to the
proposition of the News and Advertiser
may be doubted. 1t would seem i'm
probable that the colonel would desire
to see himself rated with Addicks' or OF
taking the position OF a disintegrating
element In Delaware Republicanism.
Be this as it may. the proposal VIII
not, as it was never expected to be ac-
cepted by the Union Republicans.
