NOTHING FAIRER

Here is what the New York sun
says regarding the appeal Of the seven
Regular Republican members to their
colleagues to elect two United States
senatos:
In March last seven Republican
members of the Delaware Legislature
made this proposition TO the State
Committee of the Addicks faction to
OH Delaware's seats In the Senate:
They would name ten men from
whom the Union or Addicks Repub-
Leans might select one. the Union Re-
publiCans TO name ten men from whom
they might select one. This The Union
Republican State Committee rejected,
because they cared for nothing but
the election OF Addlcks. Now these
seven Republicans have made the
samc proposition dirCot To The Union
Republican representatives in the AS
semby
no proposition could be fairer.
Again We have before us the question
whether the "Union Republicans" in
Delaware are Republicans or Addicks-
ties
The question which the Sun raises
is pertinent We have been convinced
that there were many AddiclIsites and
humorous Union Republicans in the
opposing faction. But when men con-
tinue to sanction party wrecking
through a course of years. and when
their only political principle is loyalty
TO one man, We shall have 10 reluct-
anty conclude that the faction is COM
posed exclusively of Addickeites No
man is a Republican who stakes the
party success on the election of one
/ man.

They took positions in the centre

DENIED USE OF THE MAILS

Wilkesbarre, Pa, May S-A report
comes from Washington that the post
Office department after an investiga-
tion has denied the use of the mails
to Vankirk 6 Robins, of this city. The

endless chain concern. They dealt in
fountain pens, and in the circulars
they mailed they offered to pay all
who would enter their employ So a
week for writing letters and S1.5O for
expenses. The mail sent to the firm
became so heavy that the local post
office could not handle it. This excited
the suspicion of the authorities, and
an investigation was ordered. There
are about 10000 letters in the local

sued by General Smith to Major Wal
Ter. SGT up by the latter in his de-
fonse before the court martial
In reply the secretary submits two
orders by General Bell, dated Deem
Der and 8 last. In the first, General
Bell refers to the treachery of the ma
tives, to their use of Internal machines
and to their constant violation Of all
the rules of civilized warfare There
fore he declares that he is reluctantly
obliged to avail himself Of the right of
retaliation under the regulations, and
to deal severely with persons who
commit murder for political pur-
poses.
General Bell announced that wher-
ever prisoners or unarmed or defense
less Americans or natives friendly to
the United States government are
murdered or assassinated for political
reasons, and this fact can be estab-
lished, it is his purpose to execute a
prisoner of war under the authority
contained in sections SO and 14S. This
prisoner of war will be selected by lot
from among the officers or prominent
citizens held as prisoners of war and
will be chosen when practicable from
those who belong to the town in which
the murder or assassination occurred.
Secretary Root denies all knowledge
of any order issued by General Smith
to Major Waller. such as referred to in
the court martial, and he enclosed his
order for General Smiths trial as con-
firmed by General Chaffee.

pRlMAnILY ron HONESTY

ln certain quarters there have been
efforts to show that an element in the
Democratic party and an element in
the Republican party are working for
common purpose, the elimin-
alton OF Addicksism. There is a
measure Of truth in this. and just
how far it is true everyone knows.
The Democrats as a party naturally
wish to see everything that goes un-
der the name Of Republican so down
to defeat To them Addicks represents
political enemy which must be de-
feated for the sake of the success OF
the Democratic party. The Regular
Republicans, on the other hand, are
fighting an enemy in their own party.
Their first concern is to purify their
own household. and it is for this and
not primarily to win Victories. that the
battle is waged.
But aside from politics, all public
spirited citizens ofinteligenceandh high
character are banded together in the
endeayor to avert the lasting disgrace
of this State That is a larger question
than narrow partisanship. and il mat
ters little that certain persons inspired
with this idea are Democrats and
others Republicans There are
thousands of men in the Democratic
party, who would fall in line behind
an Addicks 81 he happened to be I'M
their party, but there are many who
would not We say there is strong
sentiment against Addicks because the
persons who hold it are primarily
men. ave secondarily Democrats or
Republicans.
The reason is plain; Addicksism
means a system, rotten to the core,
and extending its nmincatlons
throughout the State 1t does more
than lneleace the supremacy OF either
paffT itsSuikes at the foundations
of our government Il is based pri-
marily. secondarily and finally ON the
purchase OF men. We do not say that
an who mistakenly support it are
bought. but very many Of them are
directly or indirectly. Take away that
prop. and the whole structure would
fan. Now this is known in the hearts
of all our people; the lips may deny,
but the mind endorses this statement,
it is natural then that our best citizens,
regardless Of party-men who work on
the farms and in the shops, as we'll as
those more fortunately circumstanced
with one accord rise to fight Ad-
dicksism. When the conscience Of a
people is aroused. the devil himself
cannot prevail against IT, and unless
Deiawareans disgrace their race and
blood, Addiclsism is doomed.
