DEMoCRATIC NUMBERING


The Democrats in the last decade
have demonstrated their capacity foi
blundering such as no other party
could ever boast Not satisfied with
two staggering defeats of the national
party. they are making record in
Congress which viii insure the return
of a majority Of Republican members
TO that body. They have revelled in
opposition, a small minority even going
so far as to oppose the measure for re-
lief for the destitute and starving OF
the islands of St Vincent and Martin
ique.
But they have found their great de-
light in opposing any measures look
ing to the government of the Philip
pines. There would be some excuse il
they would present some plan for the
disposition OF this important question,
but, no: They have contented them
selves with a policy that is not con

been expressions of opinion which lead

All the malignant hate OF which hui

On a slim foundation of ex parte evil

part of our soldiers. This was never

throughout the State. the Republicans
should have one more representative
from Kent. the Second district, and
two more from Sussex, the. Third and
Fourth districts. In these two counties
there were separate legislative tickets
two years ago.
There would be no change in the
Senate makeup from Kent and Sus-
sex with one ticket, but New Castle
county would have two more senators.
which they will lose if there are two
tickets.
Thus il can be readily seen that Ad-
dicks hasn't a ghost of a show with
two tickets. while with one ticket he.
at least. will have the satisfaction of
having Republican Legislature pass
judgment on his ambition.

DISTRICT MAJoRITIEs

That is a peculiar sort of logic which
would reward with a great Office a man
who is known TO be utterly unfit for it,
because of necessity. IL is a doctrine
utterly repugnant to freeman. II is nc
refuge for US to hide behind what
others may do; we are responsible for
OuI own acts. Think Of a man brl-
tally saying: III you don't elect me /
will sink the party"l And think of men
who under the threat would turn in
and do his win II this spirit had ami
mated our sires in 1776 there would
have been meek submission to English
tyranny.
Much is being said these days, too,
about what a sacred thing majority
rule is. It wasn't always So sacred, as
some of us remember; but il is a sub
ject which has several sides. Here is
that has been forgotten; un-
der our new constitution senator's and
are elected by districts,
and are responsible to their constit-
uents, and not to the voters OF the
whole State or county. When the
voters OF a district nominate and elect
a man on a pledge not to vote for an
man for office, he must
obey their wishes, IL he has vestige
of manhood. II then we are TO make
a fetish of majority rule, we must af-
firm that majority of the voters OF
the party in each district shall decide
the conduct of the senator or represen-
tative of THAT district.
We are aware that this places GER
tain members of our Legislature in an
unfavorable light. since under some pc
culiar form of reasoning; they violated
their solemn pledges. But who is able
to tell what the sentiment on this
question really is? A majority of the
citizens of Delaware certainly are op-
posed to Addicks, and we believe that
a majority Of Republicans are. W.
don't know. and under our system oI
government, where votes count un-
equally, there is no method of testing
it. But the principle that we have laiC
down seems plain; that senators ano
representatives must obey the will oil
"A majority OF their constituents, and
keep their pledges. And it may be re-
membered. too, that all members of the
Legislature are charged with the duty
of electing senators, and members WIKI
have voted during a whole session
for one man to fill two vacancies. hav,
not really tried to elect senators and
therefore, have not only violated theh
pledges, but the spirit OF our institu
tions.

The sun is now fading in the west and
the swains and the maidens someway

may be that they are thinking of things
needing their attention at home. or 1T
may be that those sauntering couples on

Then comes hustle and confusion. Bas-
kets. boxes, and bathing suits are all
gotten together. horses are harnessed,
and the procession forms. AS they drive
away they hear the swash Of the waters
as though calling to them, but a song
is struck up and is caught up by those
in the various conveyances and rolls out
on the still night.
The woods are cool and fragrant, and
from every hill comes the call Of the
whip-poor-wills and the chorus of katy
dds. The horses swing into the gates,
and. tired but happy, the farmer and
his family are soon deep in refreshing
slumber.
I have refrsined from mentioning the
possibility OF mosquitoes, but as these
friends of mine have said nothing about
them. have omitted the one unpleasant
topic-the rift in the lutte.

though il his friends choose to use
their influence in his behalf, and If
the commission names him, that he

Alfonso. the young King of spain
yesterday mounted the throne amid the
good wishes of everyone. The Duke Of
Connaught, brother Of King Edward
Of England, conferred on the youth
the order Of the Garter. The ceremony
is ludicrous to Americans, but suits
European tastes. The boy King placed
his foot on stool, and the old man,
after numerous bows, stopped and
clasped the garter around the royal
leg. We don't know how il feels TO
have this distinguished honor confer
red ON one. but TO live up to it we
imagine will be among the least Of
his trials. Il recently became neces-
sary for America to limit the domain
of this youthful monarch, yet on this
important occasion the President sent
his felicitations, which were sincere
and approved by our people. May spain
and her young king be happy.
