THE OLD AND THE NEW

Hugh G. Brownies retirement from
the chairmanship of the Republican
State Committee is not a matter of sur
prise to his party friends, although
the expression made at the meeting of
the committee on Saturday demon
strates that it is to them a matter of
regret. Several months ago Mr.. Browne
announced that he intended to retire.
and only held the office up to the pres
ent time in difference to the urgent re-
quest OF his party associates.
For comparatively young man Mr..
Browne has taken a prominent part
in politics. His career began with the
Houston campaign in 1888, when he
stumped New Castle county in behalf
OF the Republican ticket. Two years
later he became associated with the
State Committee in the capacity of as
sistant secretary and private secretary
to the chairman of that body. He also
was honored with the secretaryship of
the State League of Republican Clubs.
In 1897 ne was elected alternate to the
National Convention and has been sec
retary OF several state conventions. He
became secretary of the State Commit
tee and devoted himself untiringly to
the work. Upon the retirement of Gen
eral James II. Wilson from the chair
manship Mr.. Browne was elected to
succeed him and he continued uninter-
ruptedly in the Office until Saturday
when he retired with the thanks and
best wishes of those who had profited
by his long and excellent service.
His successor, Philip Q. Churchman
is a prominent member of the New
Castle county bar who has been active
in politics for many years. He has an
intimate knowledge of political condi-
tions as they have existed in the past
and as they exist to-day,an this knowl-
edge, coupled with his marked execu-
tive ability, should serve to make him
most valuable leader in the interest
ing campaign just cleverly begun.

In several OF the Republican sena-
torial and representative districts in
this county there are candidates, who
profess to be Republicans. but who
really are Addicksltes. who are asking
Republican support at the nomination
election. These men are so well known
In their respective districts that the
Evening Journal does not feel called
upon to name them. At the same time
it warns Republicans not TO be de
ceiyed by these men, who hope 70 ge'
into the Legislature by the meanes
sort Of subterfuge to vote for Addicks.

Men who conspire to set afoat vi
cious and baseless rumors for the pur-
pose of affecting the values of stocks
of large corporations deserve severe
punishment. They seek to enrich them
selves and to impoverish others by the
use of false statements which alarm
the holders of such stocks and impel
them to sell such holdings at a great
sacrifice. Then the partners in crime
buy up these stocks and profit by the
reaction which follows denial of such
damaging stories. By the conviction
of three of the men who wrought such
havoc with the Brooklyn Rapid Transit
investors the courts Of New York have
done the country at large an excellent
service.

Finland defies the czar Of all the
Russias, and there may be trouble
ahead for its people. The Finnish Sen
ate has addressed a memorial to the
czar declaring it's inability to promul-
gate the imperial rescript regarding
Russian language in Finland, the limi-
tation OF the right Of public meeting
and granting the right OF Russians &c
carry on trades prohibited to Firms
The future course Of the czar will be
watched with interest, for he seems de-
termined to override the guaranteed

mined to prevent it.

HILL HuMlLlTATeD

Tammany has filled David B. Hill's
cup of political humiliation full to
overhowing. The caucus of the New
York delegation to the Democratic Ma
tional Convention was a turbulent
gathering, dominated by Richard
Croker and the other Tammany chief
tains Mr. Hill expected to represent
the state on the Committee on Reso-
lutions, and had mapped out an ag-
gressiye fight against the reiteration OF
reaffirmation OF the Chicago currency
plank. The friends OF Free Silver and
Reputation conspired 10 keep him OF
the committee, and to force him TO
make his fight from the floor OF the
convention. Their conspiracy succeed
ed, but not until Mr. Hill and Ar.
Croker had engaged in a heated and
bitter controversy in which the former
accused the latter of having "skulked
of to Europe in 1896" and the latter
accused the former OF having remained
at home and sulked and soured at the
expense of the Democratic national
ticket. After he had been
beaten, Mr.. Hill left the caucus in dis
gust, to prosecute his fight against Free
Silver in more congenial company than
his home delegation afforded.
II New York is the pivotal state this
year, Bryan's chances Of carrying it are
exceedingly slim. Mckinley, Roose-
welt, Sound Money, prosperity and ex-
pansion are all exceedingly popular
there, and their potency is increased
by the bitter feeling existing between
the state Democracy, led by Hill, and
the Tammany adherents, led by Croker
Hill and his friends recognize the ruin
GUS effect reiteration or reaffirmation
Of the currency plank Of the Chicago
platform will have on the vote in the
state. Croker and his friends have
surrendered to the Nebraskan, and will
accept 16 to I, or anything else that is
dictated by Bryan and his following
OF Free Silver Democrats, Free Silver
Republicans and Populists. They care
nothing about anything outside of New
York city, and would, II conditions
should warrant it, trade New York
State for New York city this year. as
they have done in the past.
