Golden Wedding.

Mr.. Frank Wescott and Miss Harriet
Langworthy were married in Little Cen
esee, N. Y, Oct. IS, 1851. Unto them
have been born one son and three
daughters, six grandsons and ten grand
daughters. The children with their fam
lilies gathered at the old homestead in
the town of Albion last Friday, the fifth
eth anniversary of their parents MARI
age, invited other relatives and friends,
making company of sixty, and cele-
brated the occasion with happy, joy
Gus, thankful golden wedding. In the
forenoon photographer visited the farm
and secured several pictures of the fam
lily. About one o'clock the invited
guests began to arrive. The grand
daughters were all daintily arrayed in
white dresses. It was here that Mr. and
Mrs. Wescott have spent the larger part
of their fifty years of married life. The
wedding supper was both bountiful and
delicious and credit to all concerned.
The marriage ceremony was not repeated
but the Rev. S. Fl. Babcock, on behalf of
the happy couple, thanked the children
and all concerned for their efforts iE
making the occasion SO pleasant and
for the many and beautiful tokens of
regard which had been presented to
them, among which were an elegant re-
clining chair, gold eagle, large parlor
lamp, beautiful picture, and numerous
other things. While we cannot expect
another fiftieth anniversary, we hope for
Mr.. and Mrs. Wescott many annual re-
turns of this occasion with health and
strength to enjoy the esteem and respect
and love in which they are held by all
who know them.

There is little doing in tobacco mat

fully through some sections of the coun-
try, buying when they can secure terms
agreeable to them. Probabilities are
that purchases will be easy till the crop
is more fully cured. Weather has been
unfavorable for that.-Vernon County

Sutter Bros of Chicago, through their
agent, w. K. Potter, have purchased all
the stock of the Cambridge Tobacco
Warehouse Co. and are now sole owners
of the plant. The firm was very liberal,
paying face value with per cent. inter
est for the stock. Now let those who
built the warehouse invest their money
in another house. It was money juci-
ciously expended and no doubt another
warehouse in the village would prove as
profitable to the town as this one has
| been.-Cambrid News.

Addicks as an Issue.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
lhe Repnhlican factions of Delaware
seem To have removed the seat of war
from their own stamping ground TO the
New York newspapers. This is rather
remarkable proceeding, but is perhaps
justified by the fact that there is no pos
sihllity of Il local accommodation.
! he Addicks leader says that his people
are in the majority and submits figures
that ARE impressive. The regular" lead
er says that AuJickS is Il bad man and
thar the regulars" will not agree to any
compromise that in any sense involves his
election. to the United Stntcs Senate.
Here is a well defined issue and il is
worthy of consideration. Ii is the man
and not the issue that Is the bone or
contention.
The facts are these: For generations
mp To 1887 there was Il Democratic or
ganiZ;tti0n that controlled ''the three
counties in Delaware There was never
a victorious Republican party until Mr.
AddlCks appeared on the scene, and al
though his forces did not win in the first
onset against the Democracy, they have
been in the majority ever since. We
know that II st. Louis III 1896 the Ad-
dicks forces weren't turned down be-
ci,llSe they we're in the majority. and in
this city in 1900 thry were accepted be-
cause they wcr" likewise in the majority.
A. to the merits Of either contention we
! do not pretend 10 judge, but il is certain
that the present Republican condition in
Delaware cannot hc considered unless
.AI,licke is taken into account
There alc those who call .Adldicks Il
political monster. There are those who
tlIink ne is the best Republican that over
lived III the State. Really. we do not
see why outsiders should hc called upon
to decide this question. II .AddckS is as
hmd ms is claimed. he could not corrupt
/ the Senate; if hc is rs good MS his friends
think, he ought to lie there. In fact.
| this is u case where he majority Of the
/ majority ought to rule. We arr not fax
\ ing sides in the case ut all, for there
ar" 50 many sides that they are bcwld-
rrilg. hut we 90 back to the eold- fashioned
| principle that somebody must rule. and
thar Is the majority. Can't our friends
| in Delaware do something besides write
4 letters and make speeches?

Bradford whom it thus puts iii the posi-
another opportunity to say dscreditable
things about Union Republicans. As we
have said the public have concluded that
Judge Bradford's speech was an attack
upon Mr.. Addicks. In this affair they
have therefore, unsolicited, suggested, or
made reasonable cause for a comparison.
odions as it may he, between their talk.
cheap talk about and for civic virtue. and
Mr.. Addcks' course in cleansing the
State of political corruption: 1t is to
his credit that the State is Republican,
that legalized Democratic political cor
ruption has been stopped. To accom-
plish that was not an easy matter. 1t
was not thing to be quickly accom-
plished. But while Every Evening and
Judge Bradford were talking and schem-
ing to prevent the accomplishment of
that first and greatest Of the necessities
for cleansing Delaware politics, while
they We're attacking and misreprescnting
him, Mr.. Addicks was working, persist
entity and successfully for Republican
success, and because he succeeded
against their opposition they now seek to
deprive him OF the honors and rewards
dli, to the victor.
That is the story Of the motive behind
the speech Of Judge Bradford and the
defence of him by Every Evening. They
seek Mr. Addicks' elimination from Della
ware politics. With that accomplished
all talk of political corruption would
cease. and the political moralists of the
| Anti-Addicksite order without regard
to political pretensions, would proceed to
agree in the disposition and enjoyment Of
| the powers, honors (?l and emoluments
of State government, and incidentally oi
national politics.
