More Trolley Lines.

Elkton, Nd, Feb. 25.-It has
been practically decided that the
coming spring will be one OF great
activity in the way of constructing
electric RAILWAYS, not only in this
county, but on down through the
peninsula.
On Saturday last several Phila-
dclpha and Wilmington capitalists
came TO Elkton and drove over the
route and from what could be learn
ed from them they were much pleas
ed. 1t is stated that as soou as the
NIkton and Chesapeake City Eiec-
trio RAILWAY Company reaches
Chesapcak City the line will then
be extended to Galcna and to be
connected with the Kent county
road to Chestertown, Rock Hall
and Colchester. 1t is further stat
ed that the Wilmington and Della
ware City road will eXtcud its line
from Delaware City over to Chesl-
peake City, then connect with the
ELTON and Chesapeake City road
making direct connection iron the
Eastern Shore Of MARYLAND TO Phil
adelphia by way Of Delaware CITY
and Wilmington.

The Wilmington daily Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1890-1902, 1901-02-26
THE effort beipo made 10 elect

THE effort being made to elect
two gentlemen to represent this
State to the U. S, Senate. is being
continued. The proposition that
each wing OF the party should be
allowed to select candidate is GER
tainly fair, and should be acquI-
esced in. Thus far. however, a
minority Of the members refused TO
accede to this demand. BY pur-
suing their erratic course the State
may be lett without any representa-
tives in the United States Senate.
In former times the ma jority were
allowed to rule, but in these later
times the minority wish to dictate
terms 10 the ma jorlty. This is sub
version OF Republican policy and
also OF Democratic usage. 1t IS
dlctatorlal smacks Of anarchy. 1t
seems to us neither manly or poll
tic. If the Republican party s 10
continue ruling factor in this
State the two wings must act to
gether. 1t is folly for men to dig
their political graves and at the
same time drag down the party
they profess touphold. They should
DO right and notendeavor to punish
otTenses that others have COM
mitted, otherwise the crime of
1901 may prove OF greater magni-
tude than the crime of 1898, and
therefore call for punishment Of
greater severity. Political suicide
is Just as reprehensible as actual
suicide, and we are surprised that
sensible men should be guilty OF it.
Legislators should look TO the lu-
ture rather than to the past, aud
act SO as TO gain the good will OF
the people. in order that they may
be reelected or that their party
may control the affairs o. our State
al coming elections.
