PRESIDENT AND ADDICKS.
More Friendly Attitude Necessary
Thanks to du Pont.

From the New York Commercial Adver-
tiser.
Washington, March 21.--rhe state
mcnts that Addicks, the Republican can
didate for Senator in Delaware, is to
he recognized hereafter by the President
for patronage, instead of du Pont, is true
and not true. Addicks was recognized
at the National Republican Convention,
and. therefore. is the official representa-
tive of the Republican organization in
his State. He agreed. in order to bring
about an understanding. that Mr.. du
l'ont should receive substantial recog-
milton at the hands of the Admnistra-
tion. But Mr.. du Pont refused TO he
guided by Senator Hanna's advice, with
the consequence that in standing out
| for his rights he is charged by the
Chairman of the National Committee
with being the cause of the deadlock.
In the absence of Senators from Della
ware. Chairman IIanna's communication
with the Republican organization must
be conducted through Mr.. Addicks. The
ms" of the Presidents name is wholly
without authority, and vet the President
Will have to be more friendly to Addicks
than to du Pont hereafter. because it is
70 Addicks that the Chairman of the
National Committee feels himself to he
under the greater political and financial
obligations.

SATURDAY, MARCH %, 1901.
THE MuGWUMP,S LAMENT.

The old Democratic anxiety at the
prospects of Republican unity is again
manifest. Every Evening, the Democrat
ic mugwump organ Of Delaware, that
has been codaling the Regulars III
order to induce them to continue Their
fractional fight and leave two Democratic
Senatorial vacancies open for Demo-
cratic inspiration at the next eiectloh'
tried to frighten the Regulars out oil
any agreement with the Union Republl-
cans for the city election 1t says:
Should these sul,-committecs succeed
in their purpose, it would mean Il deal
with the Addicks Republicans, ON a
basis of Il division of offices, by which
each faction would agree to accept the
candidates named by the other for the
office assigned to each. No matter now
obnoxious the candidates of the Addlcks
Rppublicans might prove to be-nor now
disreputablc or unft-the Regular lie
publicans would be expected to support
them at the polls.
q. This is in opposition to the usual con-
tention of Every Evening. Only two
DAYS ago it attempted to disprovc the
Union Republican claim of majority
of voters in this State, and quoted the
figures Of the last mayors election 10
sustain its contention. 1t apparently for
gets today what il said yesterday. IL
AS it contends, the proportion of votes
between the two divisions of the party is
as 33 to 81, why should it attempt Il
alarm the people for whom 1t has beei
showing so much concern. If IT had M
ounce Of decent consistency i'll its make
up, it ought to be congratulatlnS II
friends upon the prospect of clectin'
them to all the city offices. 1t ought t
bc doing more. So sure has it been tha
the "Regulars' were the eXponcnts o
the best there is in Delaware politics
and sure as il is from its own hgurc
that the Republicans are i'll the majol
ity in this city, il ought to be promotln
Republican unity and encouraging til
"Regulars" TO go in and capture tn
city, ana ought to pledge them its bcS
and unccasing effort to bring that abou
In the article from which we quot
the Every Evenings claim is give
away. 1t is tlattcring itself that Repul
lican unity is not probable. 1t is not mi
taken. 1t simply lies. Republican unit
for the city election is already fact
an unpleasant fact for this muswun
Democrat.

Maryland's DisfranchisementL Law.

The effect of the new law of dis
reimbursement of illiterate voters III
Maryland is, of course, largely a matter
Of conjecture. The Democrats expect
that it will disfranchise about $4,000
negroes and $1,000 white voters who
cannot read or write. or these it is
claimed all the negroes and about 50 per
cent. of the whites vote the Republican
ticket. With these out of the way il is
calculated that the State will be safely
Democratic and the immediate result
win be the election of Democratic leg.

by Senator German in the passage Of til,
