lowing delegates 10 the state con-
vention: i. :. Barnard, Sherman

After reaffirming confidence in
and adherence to the principles of
the democracy and adherence to
the Chicago and Kansas City
platforms, the following Iesoiu-
tions were adopted:
"Resolved, That we deeply de-
plore the unfortunate and foolish
strife OF some OF the brightest po
litical leaders of the state, who
have let political ambition and
personal feeling so far influence
their actions that il the same
course is pursued will only serve
10 divide our strength, and will
ultimately bring defeat TO the
hosts OF democracy in the pending
election, thereby jeopsIdizing the
urge that all such impolitic and
selfish methods be laid aside in
the interest OF harmony and sue
cess"
A strong resolution indorsing
the administration of Governor
Orman and the calling of the
special session OF the legislature
was also passed.
The work Of Hon. ]. w. Beatty
in the last two sessions OF the leg
islature were commended, and
Mr.. Beatty was unanimously in
dorsed for denomination. A
strong resolution was also passed
and the delegates to the state con-
vention instructed to insist on the
passage of a resolution urging
Senator Teller's reelection to the
United States senate. The con-
vention was adjourned until Sep
tember 27th. 10 meet at Mama
nola, at which time Hon. ]. w
will be re- nominated for represen-
tative.
The delegates will go uninstruct-
ed, but il is said that = very
strong anti Orman sentiment de
veloped. Out Of the seventeen
delegates il is reported that only
FIVE are favorable to the re-nomin-
alton Of the present governor.

A LARGE amount OF money has
been lost by farmers in North
Georgia in the cantaIoupe venture
this year. Five cars were shipped
from one point, and with only one
exception the cantaloupes did not
sell for enough to pay the charges.
In consequence OF the losses the
gathering stopped and farmers let
the melons lie in the field.

AMONG the many interesting
achievements OF human inventive

automobile, the dirigible balloon.

The evening Republican., 1902-06-30
MONDAY. JUNE 80. ,ees.

SOME merchants imagine that all
they have to do is to purchase a
stock Of goods and mark them at
the'price ut which they intend to
sell them. They are afraid to spend
a dollar in advertising. They think
the public will find out what they
have for sale without letting them
know through advertising. There
are numerous merchants in Will
mington to-day who are gradually
drying up and losing what little
capital they have. There are a
number of merchants who have said
they catered to the Delaware Ave
nue. trade. They are not the sue
cessful merchants by any means.
Wilmington is yet too small for ex-
elusive trade in any branch Of bust
ness. The county trade, which has
for years been going to Philadelphia
can be turned toward Wilmington
and several thousand dollars extra
put in the tills of our merchants.
The REPUBLICAN reaches more
farmers than any other in the State
except none. Some merchants like to
be lied to when you call on them to
do business. The bigger the liar,
the better chance you stand of So
curing their business There is
more money secured through false
pretenses in the newspaper business
than in any other. Some men like
to be lied to, it takes better with
them than the truth.

Hal! Guard to Leave,

Hall guard George E. Founders
and his wife will leave the work
house on July 10 to accept positions
as supervisor and matron of the
Connecticut School for Boys at
Meriden. This school is one of the
largest in the state and also one
OF the best. Mr.. and Mrs. Flound-
ers are to have charge of Cottage A,
which is a marked compliment to
them.
The couple entered institution
work about three years ago at the
Ferris Industrial School with A. 5.
Meserve, who was then superintend-
ent there, but is now chief warden
of the workhouse. BY faithful and
conscientious work they developed
into good officers, and when the
workhouse was opened they accept,
ed the positions Of hall guard and
assistant matron. Their services
were valuable at this institution as
we'll as at the Ferris School.

LEATHER
COMBINE.

1t is rumored that a combine o1
the leather and glazed kid manu-
factures in this section of the coln-
try is to be effected in the near fut-
ure.
At the meeting of the National
Morocco Manufactures Association
in Atlantic City on July 10th, some
thing definite may be done.
1t is said that the immense plants
of Mr.. Foerderer and Mr.. Burk in
Philadelphia are ready to enter into
the new combination. They are
two of the largest establishments in
this section of the country, and with
the large Wilmington morocco
shops would make the new COM
bination powerful and effective.
1t is noteworthy that Wilmington
plays an important part in the leath
er finishing business of this country
Hence the cooperation of the Will
mington manufacturers would be
necessary if a combine of the leath-
er interests should be made. The
plants of the Ford Morocco Co., F.
Blumenthal & Co., the shops of the
American Leather Company and
others in this city are among the
foremost in the country so far as
their capacity for turning out the
finished leather and their animal out
put are concerned.

General Firmin's Force DislOdKed by
the Northern Revolutionixts.
CAPE HAITIEN, Haiti, June go
There has been much fighting here,
and great excitement prevails. Admi-
raj Killick, commander of the Haitian
fleet, has disembarked an additional
detachment of troops and large quan-
tity of ammunition for the further pro-
lection of General FirH,, one of the
candidates for the presidency Of the
republic.
There have been several lively en-
gagements between the men from the
feet and the revolutonists from the
north. Several machine guns were set
up in commanding position by Cen
eral Firmin's forces, and an attempt
was made to drive the men from the
north from their position. Notwith-
standing the fire from the machine
guns detachments Of the northern rev.
olutionists made several attacks on
General Firnin'S followers, and the
latter were eventually dislodgCd.
In the meantime the vessels under
the command of Admiral kiilick were
bOmbarding Cape Haitieu. This action
was taken without previously having
notified the foreign c0nsuls here. There
has been 4 lively rain Of shots down
the streets of Cape Laitien for several
hours.
Deep regret is expressed that 10 war
ship of a foreign power is in til" har-
lor at present to afford protection to
foreign residents.

ST. PlITEKSBUKG June 3O.-Thc
fact that no representative of the court
or of the ministry has called at the
British embassy here to offer the sym
lathy Of Russia in the matter of the
illness of King Edward has occaSioned
much comment and is generally at
trihuted to Russian chngrin Oh account
of the conclusion of peace in South
Africa. 1t is said upon excellent au-
thority that Count lNinsdorf, the min
istpr Of foreign affairs. admitted that
this p"ac" had upset Kussia's calcula-
