had with them on the subject, they
were strongly opposed 1" any COM
promise. prcfcrrInT to sink any
present loss rather than TO have Mr..
Addichs represent this state in the
Senate.
Il have accordingly called upon all
the leading manufacturers and every
one Of them that saw declared most
positively that it was false in every
particular, and that they felt on this
subject as do, that II wa, to tic in
tcrcst of Delaware to sacrifice any
present necessity rather than be rep

''it should be impressed upon the
members of the Legislature that sin
ty per cent. Of the total Republican
vote Of the state Of Delaware was in
oppo siion TO Mr.. AddickS. NotwIth-
standing his fact, his control Of the
lower counties has given him larger
representation at Dover than he could
have commanded had tie vote for
representatives been taken through
out The state rather than by districts

life as many active business men as
any other man in the city. and have
to say that of al! the men have met
who profess to be Republicans, only

compromise with Mr.. ACdickS.
"lIvping that you viii convey to
me amy report similar to the one
above referred to. and that you will

dcnce as man in your opposition to
