a meeting of Kent county Demo
Gratis, held at Dover last week, adopted
resolutions denouncing ,Addicks for,
among other things, depriving Della
ware of her representation in the
United States Senate. This denuncia-
tion is all right, so far as it goes, but
it does not go far enough. 1t should
include denunciation of some Demo-
Gratis but for whose selfishness and in
sistence Addicks would have been
absolutely defeated and dcmoralzed
by the election of two good men---a
Democrat and Republican Sena-
tors. Such defeat would have driven
Addicks from Delaware politics, but
the situation otherwise brought about
only encourages him to renewed efforts.

may make the brain wander, or
which may cause you to do that which
you would not otherwise do, nor do we

MAYOR KLETTNER
responded as follows:
Mr.. City Attorney, there are mo-
ments in a mans life when the tongue
fails to express the emotions of the
heart. You touched me once twelve
months ago and left me speeches.,
when you presented me Masonic raj
ment, one which I shall ever highly ap-
preciate and retain in memory of those
who have stood by me in trials and
troubles during my administration in
the year 1901.
AgainI am the recipient from your
hands of this handsome token. 1t
needed not this, for if | have gained
your esteem, your love, and your conf
dence, have done as much as l ever
expect to do, because l have enjoyed
every moment that my administration
has thrown me with you, and l am
standing here today again, without be-
ing able to find words in the proper
form to thank you for this handsome
and valuable token.
Going out of this office, I wish to say
that have only endeavored to gain the
admiration and the approval of those
who placed me in this high and honora- |
BILE position. 1 can not say more. I
again thank you for your kind esteem
and consideration towards me.

that ought not to be enforced rigidly,
it ought to be amended or repealed;
and if there be such, there is no fit ter
time for action than the present, at the
outset of this administration. The
finances o.. the city are not in as healthy

and our path is not to be strewn with

that is the same rule which a prudent

agement of his own affairs. At pres
ent there is large outstanding debt,
amounting to several thousand dollars
on which the interest is about eight
per cent. At some time in the very
near future I propose to submit to the
citizens plan for issuing bonds and
funding this debt, for the purpose OF
reducing the interest, and, by retiring
the bonds, gradually wiping out the
debt.
In conclusion, I pledge my heart and
hand in any work which looks toward
the moral and material advancement OF
the city which we have the honor to
represent. May we work together har-
moniously and with an eye single to its
welfare. May we be true to the trust
within US reposed.
I now declare this council ready for
the transaction of any business which
may properly come before it.

No man deserves any praise or any

wherever duty calls man he must go.

The steamer Nevadan arrived
bright and early this morning from
kahului after a very eventful trip.
That the vessel did not meet with Sc.
rious trouble at Kahului is due to the
good handling of Captain Weldon. who
with his ships engines at full speed
astern took the immense vessel out OF
the small harbor backwards to the
open sea and safety in the sudden
storm which swept down upon the
windward side OF Maui.
The big steamer was taken to La

to put her on the reef. At Lahains
one anchor and aboNt thirty fathoms
of chain were lost overheard by the
chain becoming unshackled In the
locker. This was located, however
and will be recovered.
Captain Weldon was congratulated
by brother shippers this morning OF
the way he escaped with his ship. She
