THE editor Of the Every Evening
must think that the Republicans ia
this State are very forgetiul, blind
or stupid, or he would not suggest
that they sho lid unite with the mem
bers Of the Democratic party for
any purpose what ever. The dis
franchisement Of voters through the
machin atoms OF assessors, collect
ors aud members Of the Levy Court,
the attempt to talsify the election
returns by the returning boards.
and the usurpation practic.d in Kent
County in order to control the Leg
islature and the Constitutional Con-
vention, are of too recent Occurr-
ence to be forgotten or forgiven. BY
fraud, trickery and bribery they
partly controlled the legislation OF
the State for nearly fifty years, and
the editor possesses the brazen eff
frontery to propose that certain Re-
publicans should unite 10 enable
them to co troll it for years to come.
True Republicans will never enter
tain such proposition and the ed
itor In question will find his labor
will prove in vain. His great love of
honesty and fair dealing should
have been practiced years ago.
The talk of corruption is a mere
sham, pretense, to deceive the
unwary so they may be betrayed,
and future outrages be perpetrated
in the name of justice and human
ity. The acts which the editor con.
demns were practiced by the Demo.

Mt. Holly, June 22.-Cupid laughs
at good many more things than
locks miths, and in this case he is full
of highest gIee, for Harrie Baxter is
not only out Of Mount Holly jail but
he is at his home in Great Neck,
Long Island and by his side is his
bride of night, crstwhilc Miss Ma
bel Wills. The ceremony was per-
formed in the Camden office of SEQ.
vel & Boyle, attorneys for Mrs. Wills
and Baxter. The knot was tied by
Rev. William II. Van Horn, ret ired
clergyman, and it was made good and
tight.
The attorneys went to Mt. Holly
yesterday afternoon and deposit ed in
cash the $1,000 bail demanded for the
release of the young man who had
created so much excitement in the
little Jersey town. Baxter was soon
at liberty and with his counsel came
at once to Camden where Miss Wills,
her mother and little brother, joined
them. A messenger was sent for
Rev. Van Horn, who resides on
Kaighn avenue. The clergyman
quickly reached the Federal street
office of the lawyers and in one of
the private rooms the needed prelim-
inares were soon gone through.
The clergyman soemnly warned
the young couple OF the responsibility
ty they were assuming and told them
It meant either lifetime Of misery
or life of joy for them. lie told
them it was a step that was not to
be taken hastily and both smiled as
they reflected upon the stormy scenes
of the past few days. When the
preacher asked for the ring it was
promptly forthcoming as all the re-
quirements Of the occasion had been
| looked after by Mrs, Wills and the
bride.to.be; The responses were
| given in clear firm tones by both
Baxter and the bride, and as the
preacher pronounced them one they
breathed great sigh while Mrs
Wills kissed them fervcntly.
1t was all over in little while,
and Baxter was off with his bride
| for his Long Island home az little
after 8 o'clock. The parting o
mother and daughter was one Of the
| most ardent affection.
