era OF vulgar connmercialism, when
statecraft summoned the publicist and
excluded the merely unscrupulous and

It Is said to be the hope OF Addicks
that he may gain entrance TO the Sen

opponents shall abandon the principle
for which they contend and barter
their convictions for a division Of

those Delawareans who believe in

respecting citizens look to the Regular
Republicans TO stand steadfast to their

Of Addicks. He has set the precedent
for preventing an election OF any other

cannot afford to surrender to him for

NEWSPAPER OPINION
The Delaware Senatorships

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
Alhougth the Regulars and Unioi
Republicans, or Addicksites. in Della
ware have fused so far as the organi
zation Of the Senate and House is con
cerned. it remains to be seen whethe
a sufficient number OF the Regular
will so stultify themselves as to assis
in the election of j. Edward Addick
to the United States Senate. Apar
from the national ticket the ruling is
sue in the last campaign was whethe
or not Addicks should be given contro
of the Legislature. The Democrats art
in the minority in both branches o
the Legislature, but 50 are the Ad
dicksites. and Addicks can be. electe
senator only by Regular Republican o.
Democratic votes. Excepting Senate
Farlow who supported Addicks in tn
last Legislature, in opposition to tn
will of his constituents. il Is incon
ceivable that any Democrat can be pre-
vailed upon to vote for Addicks. Som
Of the Regulars were known during thu
contest to be want TO win" men: tha
is to say. they were not avowedly TO
: Addicks. but il was understood tina
they would not object TO a compromis'
by which Addicks and a Regular woul,
be chosen TO the United States Senate

] equally we'll known and appreciated

were committed to opposition to Ad
dicks. II but four of these Regular
should maintain their ground AddiclI

FRIENDS OF THE POST

Despite the gross Misrepresentation
which it suffers, the Delaware whip
ping-post continues TO gain friends in
high and influential places. Here for
instance, is an editorial from Case and
Comment, one Of the leading legal pa
pers in the country:
IF statistics carefully and system
atically collated show that corporal
punishment tends 10 keep down the
percentage OF brutal crime we shall
favor its adoption" This language
concludes an editorial ON the whipping
post In the New York Law Journal II
Is the language of good sense and
sound statesmanship. Objections TO
the hogging of criminals are obvious,
but by no means conclusive, II such
punishment can be proved TO be In re-
ality a deterrent OF crime. Sensible
people, however disinclined 10 favor
any punishment that inflicts physical
pain, will agree that punishment must,
If possible. be made effective for the
prevention of crime, and will there
fore welcome a demonstration of the
efficacy OF a punishment, even If it Is
not in accordance with their taste.
Punitive measures must be In some
way disagreeable.. else they would be
n farce. To be effective they must be
dreaded. and il may be that physical
paints the one thing that will inspire
dread In a certain class of criminals.
