The Addicks Side
Il Editor Of The Tribune.

To Il Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir. l take the liberty Of forwarding
you the official vote Of Kent county for
November, 1900, at which time the mem
bers Of the General Assembly were elect
ed, and desire to call your attention to
the fact that the sO-called Regular Re
publicans in Kent county are but a side
show TO the Democratic party; the ticket
is run with the sole purpose to defeat
the Union Republicans (so-called Ad-
dicks). For five years the Administration
at Washington has taken every means TO
smother the Union Republican vote Of
Delaware, but the people of the yicinage
are the best judges of what they want
and what is good for them.
TIN Tough a bureau Of information" or
ganized in 1895 by the Regulars the
sleuths have poured the vials Of their
wrath through all the metropolitan press;
and through all the abuse and vilifcatim
we know what is best for our own selves
and our State, and the means to be used
TO secure two United States Senators
from Delaware for the national Republi-
can party.
But the trouble is we are discredited at
Washington and elsewhere, and anything
that we may say or advise for the good
of the party and Of our people is dis
counted beforehand by the remark, "You
are corrupt"
We claim to know the game Of politics
and play it for what it is worth. just as
is done in every other State. We have
twenty-five votes for Senator of oul
choice (Addicks) and we have said to the
other seven Regular Republicans: "Hou
select your man (as we have two Sena-
tors to elect and we will vote for who.
ever you may select il you will support
our choice" No, they demand the privi
lege TO select both
In the closing days Of the last session
they agreed with the Democrats to select
their own man and demanded the privi
lege of naming the Democrat Johr
Biggs). Other Democratic candidate,
found it out and Senator Kenney anC
Willard Salisbury held them up. Henc,
no Senators from Delaware.
In the campaign Of next year. 1902. il
looks very much that we would have {,

One result OF the Victory of the Repub-
licans In South Dakota is expected to
be the radical amendment OF the divorce
law which has made that state notorious
throughout the union. Under that law
the courts OF South Dakota have become
mere divorce mills for the convenience
OF temporary sojourners from other
states where the marriage relation Is
more highly respected, and the record OF
their operations is n reproach to the re-
spectacle citizens of the commonwealth.
The abrogation OF this offensive measure
at the approaching session OF the legis-
iature Is virtually assured, according 20
