NEWSPAPER OPINION
Let the Work Go On

From the Georgetown Republican.
Addicks IS the subject Of an article
which appears in the June number Of
Frank Leslies Magazine. Comment and
criticism of Addicks has heretofore been
largely confined 10 the leading dailles OF
the country, but such matter Of public
interest has he become. that one OF the
leading monthly magazines OF the day
has seen ht 10 give space 20 an article
upon his career IN Delaware politics.
OF course the article Is adverse TO Ad-
dicks, and outspolen In condemnation Of
his methods. No journal OF national
standing or reputation would be likely to
De otherwise. The senseless ambition and
brazen effrontery Of the man cannot but
create unfavorable comment, wherever an
account Of his entry and acts IN Delawars
are read and known.
No doubt Addicks enjoys this kind OF
notoriety as he seems always ready tc
rush into print and thus attract notic,
to himself, but the kind OF free advertls
ing he is enjoying at the present time vii
