DISGRACE OF DELAWARE.
Election Results Show How Corrup-
ton Prevailed.

Wilmington, Del, Nov. 14.-Now that
the election has been held and the Off
cial canvass of the ballots made, the
eyes of the country are on Delaware,
watching to see what the little state
will do toward filing the two vacancies
existing in her United States senator
ships As a result of the entrance of J.
Edward Addicks into Delaware politics
and the opposition to his corrupt meth
DDS one vacancy has existed since 1896
To the shame of the little state it must
be said that he is nearer the goal than
ever before, and it appears to some that
the only way out of the difficulty is for
the regular Republicans to. unite with
the Democrats and fill the vacancies
with the best men in the two parties
In all probability the regulars would
agree to this plan were it not for the
fact that the Democratic members of
the legislature are controlled by candi-
dates for the senate who have never
stood for anything that was clean and
honest in politics Under these Demo-
Gratis Delaware has had a corrupt and
mismanaged government which made her
sons blush for shame. For years ballot
boxes were stuffed and elections stolen,
until the Republicans many times were
on the verge of giving up the fight
against the Democrats, who controlled
all the election machinery. They kept
up the fight, however, and finally won
over all the self-respecting Democrats
to their cause.
Then when the battle was won and
good government seemed assured Ad-
dicks stepped in. To gain power, he
put all sorts of corrupt methods and
systems in operation.
The situation which confronts Della
ware today is a serious one The cues
ton being asked is, Shall Addicks be
elected or shall help to defeat him be
asked of the Democrats. who have done
much to corrupt Delaware? If the
Democrats give help they must get a
reward. Whether to do this or allow
the vacancies to exist for two more
years, is the matter under considera-
ton.
Addicks made gains this election. and

Sir-In view of the repeated assertions
by the coal operators during the anthra-

ANNUAL COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
DEBORAH Institute Closes Years Work
and Graduates Four
Students,

The annual commencement exercises
of DEBORAH Institute took place at the
assembly rooms of the Institute last
Friday morning, before a large and
appreciative audience, including
many of the old students, who had
gathered together to renew acquain-
tances and make new ones. The must
cal numbers on the program were fur
nished by Mrs. c. S. Marsh, pianist,
and male quartette, and were OF the
same high standard of merit which
characterizes Decorah's leading must
clans. The class Grafton was a splen-
did one, and was delivered by Mr..
George Mosby, on the subject 1.-THE
Secret of Greatness " Mr.. Mosby had
given his Grafton much thought and
delivered it in manner compliment
tary to himself and the class he repre-
scented. Diplomas were presented to
the class, the other members of which
were Mr. Albert G.. Halvorson, Miss
Emma Otilla Walenta and Miss Alice
Almira Nelson. Rev. DR.. Willett, of
the Congregational church, paid a
most beau tiful Tribute to the Flag"
in such an eloquent and pleasing man
ner as only DR.. Willett can, after
which the new flag of the Institute
was raised on the building. This
closed the exercises.
The good work done in DEBORAH by
this popular institution of learning
is worthy of special commentator.
For many years it has been constant
ly preparing young men and ladies
for the graver duties of life, and in
this grand work has done it's share
toward uplifting and enlightening the
world It's influences have always
been for the best Without ""hauntine
pretenses, it has quietly and modestly
but surely grown in size, in quality
of work done, and in usefulness. l,
has it's place to fill in the educational
circles of the northwest and is filling
it we'll. My DEBORAH Institute e

TWENTY.FIfTH ANNIVERSARY.
First Lutheran Church Observes the Occa.
sion by Special Services on
Sunday.

Last Sunday the First Norwegian
Lutheran church of this city observed
the twenty fifth anniversary of the
opening of their church in DEBORAH,
with special services in their church
on upper Broadway, which has during
the summer been undergoing extensive
improvements. The roof has been re-
shingled, new cement steps and walk
laid, and the entire interior hand
somely decorated and other improve
ments added, making an expense of
$l400, so that it now is commodious
and modern house of worship.
The observance of the anniversary
was the first service in the church
since it had been repaired, and the
large building was filled to its utmost
capacity, chairs being brought in to
accommodate the large audience in
attendance. After a hymn by the con-
gregation and anthem by the choir,
Prof Laur Larsen read we'll written
and exhaustive history of the church
society since it was organized, follow
ing which Prof. H. G.. Stub delivered
the anniversary sermon. 1t was a
mastery discourse and well received
by the large audience. The chorus
choir had provided special music for
the occasion, and the rendition of
several anthems added greatly. AT the
close of the service a special collec-
tion to cover the expense of the repairs
to the church was taken, envelopes
being passed out to the members OF
the church, and they, with many
friends not belonging to the church,
contributed literally, so that the col
lection was one of the largest ever
given in the city on similar OCCASION,
amounting to 1916. 5S. AS the Synod
owns half the church property and will
share the expense of repairs, this
amount more than meets the cost tC
the congregation.
The service was one much enjoyed
by all present, and will be a memoir
able one in the history of the church
