CUSHMAN FEELS RETTER

Congressman Cushman appeared in
happier mood at the closing session of
congress than he did OH the memorable
day when he won fame in his attack
on the leaders Of the house. In review
ing the work of the session with refer
ence to local legislation with Wash
ington correspondent he finds that
sour state received fair treatment in
the river and harbor bill and Jared
marvelously we'll in the public build
ing bill, getting more than any other
in proportion to its population. The
generous appropriation for the Puget
Sound navy yard means Il great deal
more than simply the financial amend
ments carried by the bill, as 1T marks
the dividing line between our small
and unimportant naval station and
the commencement of the Building of
one of the greatest navy yards in the
United States. The growth of senti-
ment in favor of that yard has been
very strong in both branches of con.
gress and with, the navy department.
Eastern Washington will receive
great benefit from the irrigation bill.
The benefits will not be felt at once,
hut will be none the less sure. The
Indian war veteran pension bill is of
much Importance to number Of de-
serving men on the Pacific coast. Its
passage will not take any great amount
of money out of the treasury, and yet
its benefits form just recognition of ser
vices Of heroic band of pioneers who
helped to save tie Pacific northwest
for the Union. The benefits to the state
which will accrue from the Panama
canal bill cannot be overestinlated."

KILLEO A FOX.

sportsmen in the Vicinity of CIaymont
Agitsted Over an Alleged violation of
New Law.
Some fox hunters in the vicinity Of
Claymont are agitated over an alleged
violation of law passed at the last
session of the Legislature for the pro-
lection of foxes in this Stats. On Sat
urday fox was started and had been
chased for some distance, when it was
lost and later in the day its dead body
was found, and an examination indi-
Gated that IL had been shot.
This was an unwelcoms discovery for
the fox hunters, rs they consider it
very unsportsmanlike to kill fox
while it is being chased. As matter
Of fact, there is heavy penalty for
such executions, the following law hav-
ing heen Passed at tho last session of
the General Assembly:
- from and after this act becomes
Law March f.h, 1s01l, 1t shall be unlawful
for any person TO shoot at, kill or destroy
any iox while such. fox is being chased or
pursued by dog or dogs. Any person yiolat-
ing the provisions of this act shall be
dealned guilty of misdemeanor and upon
conviction thereof shall be fined not less
than twenty and not exceeding fifty dollars
for each offence, and upon failure to pay
said fine shall be imprisoned for a term of
not less than 10 days, at the discretion of
the court.
A Law was passed March 14th, 1901,
prohibiting the hunting of foxes be-
tween May 1st and August 31st in any
year. The penalty for violation is a
fine Of $40 or 10 days imprisonment.

They Are stlll Determined.


The Sussex Republican of Georgetown,
which admirably voices the Regular
Republican sentiment of Delaware, says
that the recognition of Ad iicks by the
administration will not cause the Regu-
lar Republicans to abate their opposi-
tion to him. lone jot or little. - Their
opposition to Addicks it says, is based
on principle and any sacrifice cannot
be counted too great which will defeat
the expressed intention of any man to
buy the sovereign rights of an indie
pendent State. =" The Regular Republi-
cans, it says in conclusion, believe they
are right in the fight they have main,
tained and will continue it to the end.
They have met opposition at every
turn. The last National Convention
turned them down, but they entered
tine senatorial fight with renewed vigor
and determination, and prevented Ad-
dicks election in the last Legislature.
We are upon the eve of another session
with increased strength. At least eight
men, perhaps ten, who can not be
bullied, bought or ooerced into betray-
ing their State, are members of that
legislature''--
Men whom the lust of office does not kill;
Men whom the spoil of Office does not buy;
Men who possess opinions and Il will;
Men who have honor, men who will not lie
Men who can stand before this demagogua,
And damn his treacherous batteries without
winking;
Pure men, aun-crowned, who live above the
fog
In public duty and in private thinking.
We hope that President Roosevelt
may have the opportunity of reading
this editorial. He may then realize
that he has extended the hand of fel.
lowship to those vino would climb into
power by the most degrading methods,
and turned his back unon mon who are

AddIoks Wrong in HIS Figures.


The New York World of Monday morn
ing prints the report of an interview
had by its correspondent, James Creel-
man, with Boss Addicks. 1t is quite
long, but not remarkably interesting.
As fact, it contains few points worthy
of notice.
One feature Of the interview is that
Addicks admits the use of money in
elections in this State, but he puts the
limit of his expenditures at $3.50, 600
during the entire period of his con-
nection with Delaware politics. This
Limitation simply will not be believed
by anyone here. 1t is probable that
his expenditures amounted to $3.50, 600
for the past year alone
Mr.. Addicks makes very watery
excuse for his political treachery in
defeating the election of Republican
Senator by the Legislature of 1895.
In the election of 1894 it was dis.
tinctly understood that if we secured
Republican Legislature / was to be
sent to the Senate" he said. There
was not the suggestion of such an
understanding. And because be could
not be elected at that time, Mr..
Addicks, with his four lone members,
created deadlock, left vacancy, and
two years later helped to elect Demo-
cratic Legislature that filled the
vacancy with Democratic Senator
Mr.. Addicks also repeats the stale
lie about the disfranchisement OF Re-
publicans by Democrats under the old
Assessment law. In 1895 there were
5000 to 6,00o disfranchised Republi-
cans, 4" he said. Where are they now
might be asked. The returns of the
last election, which was held under the
control of Addicks' own party, showed
a total vote only about 1000 in exuess
of the voto of 1892, when the Demo
Gratis were in control. Either Addicks
party, in charge Of the machinery oI
registration and election, failed tc
qualify these 1000 to 6,000 "disfran
chised Republicans, or they never
existed. As fact, the charge of whole
sale disfranchisement OF Republican,
by Democrats is without foundation
They never existed. and the change o
the State from Democracy to RepubIi
canism was the result OF the corrup
use of money.

A FORMER WlLMINGTONIAN'S SUCCESS

Dover Delawarean.
To conduct business in one location
for 30 years, aud to note times changes
about them until they stand alone of
all those who were their neighbors In
the days of their business youth, has
been the fortune of the widely known
hardware and stove firm of T. X.
Jones Il Bro, Loockermau street, Dover.
On November 18th, 1867, I. X. and
John II. Jones came here from Will
mington, their native city, where their
ancestors had lived from the days when
Wilmington was but borough. They
were patriots and Americans to the
manor born, and come down in direct
line from Thomas Mokean, one Of the
signers of tho Declaration OF 1ndepend-
ence, for whom I. K. Jones, the senior
member Of the firm, is named.
From the date Of the organization
and location IF the firm here the energy
and practical skill of the young men
told for their advancement, and their
success has been phenomenal. They
have built up a large and prosperous
business, have each been prominent
factors in public affairs, and their names
are synonymous for business integrity
and solidity. I. X. has been for many
years treasurer Of several local financial
institutions, as has also his brother,
John H., junior member Of the firm,
and the latter has served several terms
as member of Town Council, president
of the Robbins Hose, and as member of
the State Legislature.
Along business lines their integrity
and courtesy have drawn to them
widely extendsd patronage and it is
safe to say that Jack and old I. X.
Jones are personally known to almost
every household in Kent county, and
that they have hundreds of we'll
wishers on this the 35th anniversary of
their Dover business birth.

BURIED ALIVE.

A Man Claiming TO Belong in''This City
Found in n Grave in "A Baltimore Gene
terry.
A special dispatch from Baltimore,
Nd, says:
1.-THE evident attempt of a man to
bury himself alive in grave dug for
the remains of a woman in the ceme-
terry of st. Johns Episcopal Church, at
Waverly, caused intense excitement In
that suburb of Baltimore yesterday.
When John Hinkei, the sexton,
looked over the graveyard yesterday
morning he saw lot of loose bricks
upon the coffin box in the open grave.
With the assistance of Henry Robe,
he started to clean out the grave for
the funeral in the afternoon. AS he
stepped into the grave he was startled
by smothered means followed by cries
from the box. For Gods sake, take
me out"
"When the box lid was raised John
Marc Badollet, who was said to live at
No. 513 King street, Wilmington, Del,
was found nearly smothered. He was
wrapped in a winding sheet, but other
wise was naked. His feet were tied to
gether. Some OF his clothing was under
bis head as pillow. The rest was
scattered nearby.
''The first story told to the police
was that Iadollet had been held up by
five men, who gagged and stripped him
and put him in the box. Later he con-
fessd that be put dirt and stones on the
| tex lid, arranged himself in the man
ner found, and then, after getting in
the box, let down the lid upon 1T. He
insisted, however, that he had been
followed for years by four men, who
threatened vengeance because of his
refusal to pay for burial of man ct
their request.
The latter contention of the man
has interested the police considerably,
because in the box there was letter
signed Executors, which stated
| that Badollet had been given money to
bury friend recently, but had allowed
him TO be buried in Potter's field, and
that relatives of Bado!let had de-
termined to bury him alive, that be
might know how it felt to lie in a
sheet in damp grave.
1.-THE letter further stated that he
would be put in grave intended for
another that he might be rescued. 7
When inquiry was made at 5l3 King
street by d reporter Of The Gazette Mon
day morning the information was OBJ.
tanned that no such man had ever lived
| there and he is not known by the
people in the house.
