THE ADDICKS-AlGGI
REPUBLICAN COMBINATION.
Some Surprise That They Agreed on
Mr.. HUM, Who is Not
Politician.

The nomination of John HUM for
Governor by the united factions of the
Republican party has created wide
spread comment, because Mr.. Hum
has been taken out of the private ranks
of citizens and not from the politi-
clans. The Addicks men and the anti
Addicks men are both guessing as to
how he will pull, If this Higgins Ad-
dicks combination should perchance
be successful in landing him into the
executive chair. For instance, one
side suggests THAT his first public act
vail be Ito appoint Walter H. Hayes
Secretary of State. This is the most
important office as far as remuneration
is concerned to come under guber-
material notice. Mr. Hayes is a pro
nounced Addicks man and the gas
kings personal counsel in Delaware
On the other hand, the Regular Re-
publicanS are just as confident that
George M. Jones, the Dover lawyer
and Regular Republican, can have the
office if he wants lit, as he is a close
personal friend of MIR. Hunn and is
counsel of the First National Bank of
Dover of which Mr.. HUM is vice
president
Mr.. HUM has lived i'm Kent county
since he was years old. He was
born in New Castle county, near the
old Hunn's landing, and his family
estate and homestead was sacrificed
by his father because of his strong
Quaker tendencies during THE abolition
stir throughout the country, and be-
cause he harbored fugitive slaves and
helped them to freedom. Mr.. Hunn
was educated at the Friends School
at Camden, where his father engaged
in farming on a large scale. He after
ward went ito Bordentown Military
Institute. In 1861, Mr.. HUM, Sr., then
being in the service of the government,
young HUM went Ito the South and
accompanied his father in the Port
Royal expedition Later, upon his re-
turn to Camden, hle married Miss
Sarah G. Emerson, daughter Of the late
w. S. Emerson, and settled i'm Wyom-
ing, where he built up large business
in shipping grain and fruit
The Addicks-Higgins deal made mere
last Friday seems to be fully under
stood among the politicians and VOTERS
and the public generally seem to re-
alize what will follow in January
should thIe HUM ticket be successful.

Large Funeral Near Mt. Pleasant.
The funeral of Mrs. Hannah A. Hall
Davidson, widow of THE late John w.
Davidson, and NEARLY 80 years old,
took place from her homestead. "Wil-
low Bridge" three miles north of Mid
dletown, was largely attended. Mrs
Davidson had during her useful life
time entertained hundreds of guests at
her home, many of them being Metho-
dist and Presbyterian ministers. Tt
was the fond desire of her son and
daughter that She might live at least
to celebrate her Goth birthday, but a
final stroke of paralysis last week soon
brought the end. She was reared in
the Society of Friends, but afterward
became Presbyterian with which de
nomination she was associated at the
time of her death. AT her funeral
services Rev. Thomas B. Hunter oi
Red Lion, am old friend, was
I'M charge, and was assisted
by Rev. Francis H. Moore ot
Middletown; Rev. G f Sheppard Of

the friends of the deceased sang sew
eral selections and Mrs. Miriam S
Davidson sang the solo: Come Unto
Me-" Inlterment was made at Della

The Milk Trust.

With deep and fearful regret the
milk trust feels that lit is proper for
it Ito announce that, owing to the ex-
tremely hot summer, most of the COWS
have gone dry and the price of milk
will consequently be hoisted 2 or 8
cents per quart. If the summer had
been extremely cool THE trust would
have felt it to be painful duty to do
the same thing. If there is any CON
tingency which cannot be twisted into
a pretext for putting the screws ON the
consumer the average trust has not
discovered it.-Chicago Chronicle.

Delaware Democrats.

Delaware Democrats do not need to
depend upon fac.ional division of the
Republicans to ensure them victory at
the election in November. Delaware
is naturally Democratic, and when
conditions are right can be depended
upon to give good majority for a
good Democratic ticket. And the com
ditions seem to be all right this year.

UTAH REPUBLICAN, CONVENTION
Rebukes Democratic lncOmpetency
and Names Hammond for Congress


Salt Lake Utah. March 2.-The Republi-
can state convention met at 1870 today
to nominate a candidate for representa-
tive in congress. Hon. Reed smoot OF
Utah county. was made temporary chair
man. nj a short speech ne referred to
the prosperous condition of the country
and the fact that all laborers were en-
ployed at good wages. He referred spec
tally to the advantages to the state by the
advance in lead and VOL. He denounced
the Democratic legislature for its failure
to elect a United States senator. He de-
pIored the conditions which made spec
ial election necessary at this time, and
said: THE responsibility must rest upon
the Democratic party, a party that al
ways Numbered; a party that has failed TO
properly govern the state and nation and
is absolutely incompetent to govern it.
self"
After appointing the usual committees,
the convention took a recess until
O'Clock. When the convention reassem-
bled Arthur L. Thomas of Salt Lake City
was made permanent chairman. In his
speech he congratulated the people on the
return of prosperity under Republican
rule He referred to conditions under
Democratic national administrations and
touched at length upon the subject of tar
ifs. He said the Republican party would
go into. this campaign with a clean record
and clean candidate and predicted that
the state would be restored to the Repub-
lican column.
The mention of the name of President
q n
applause.
The resolutions committee then reported,
and the report was adopted. The platform
was very short. Nothing was said on the
subjects of finance and expansion. The
report closes as follows:
I'VE heartily endorse the magnificent
administration of President Mckinley and
equally successful administration of pub
lie affairs by the Republican state Off
GERS in Utah.
The present special electeion is forced
upon the state of Utah by the incompe-
tency and insincerity of the Democratic
party. whose broils and chickering's have
deprived the state of two OF the three
representatives to which it is entitled in
the American congress. For this lack Of
representation the interests Of the state
are now suffering Therefore, while de-
ploring the need and expense of tn pres
Mt special election, W welcome the OPP
portunity offered the people of pulling
themselves out of the Democratic mire.
As the Republican party has met and
solved every great question presented the
country in the past, so will it success
fully surmount every obstacle presented
against good government in the future"
The names of j. T. Hammond and Will
lam Glassmann were placed in nomina-
ton for representative in congress. The
first ballot gave Hammond 301 votes and
Glasman 81. The nomination Of Hammond
was then made unanimous.
