Not satisfied with numerous other
attempts to turn Delaware over to the
Democrats, J. Edward Addicks today
as bluff decided to name Union Re
publican county ticket. This was
done because the Regular Republican
members OF the Joint Campaign Com
mittee refused to accept James w. Rob-
ertson for State senator from the First
district, and Irwin f. Phillips for rep
resentative from the Second district,
because they were nominated by fraud.
This outrageous breach of contract
was decided upon by the Gasman be-
fore he had consulted many of his lead
ers. If he could get two Re
pulican tickets in this county
it would mean the defeat OF both
and the election of a Democratic county
as well as legislative ticket. Addicks
is publishing this determination to
wreck the party in a circular he will
distribute this afternoon.
Many regard this The latest move OF
the wrecker as a bluff to try and
frighten the Regulars to accept Robert
son. It is said he is willing to with
draw Phillips, who is disqualified, be-
stitutional provisions regarding resi-
dence.
in this circular telling why he had
decided to put up a second ticket OF his
own selection, Addicks, over his Owl
signature. says that he does not pro-
pose to allow the Regulars to have the
fat county offices when his men ar'
not accepted by the Campaign Commit

PROTECTION AND WAGES.
An Object Lesson Furnished In the
Casa o4 pofdnrx Warlxnrs

An Object Lesson Furnished In the
Case of Pottery Workers.
AS bearing upon the question wheth-
er protection affects wages one way or
another the following letter from one
of the leading pottery employers of the
United States Is extremely pertinent
There Is probably no class of labor
so wretchedly paid as the pottery en-
ployees of England and the Continent.
"A pottery workman from England
having certificates of good workman
ship from several reputable pottery
firms applied to us not long since for
job; said his average wages for week
were $3.50 when he worked full time,
but he did not get work more than half
the time; a respectable man, with wife
and four children.
1--WE employed him at $15 pei week,
and now at piecework he earns easily
$50 or more, and one of his daughters
in our decorating department eTns So
or $40 per week.
"Yet in spite of the good wages paid
by the United States potters their
wares are sold at astonishingl. low
prices.
"'Facts are Gods arguments
1t is an indisputable fact thai be-
cause of the protective tariff mties
laid upon importations of foreign DINA
ware the prevailing rate of wagespaid
to potters IN the United States Is 'ully
double the rate paid in Great Britain
and fully three times the averagerate
paid in continental potteries. Yet the
current prices of American potter! are
surprisingly cheap. The better ,aid
American does better work and nore
of it than the poorly paid European
potter 1t is because of the high wges
made possible by the tariff that he Ues
better work and more of it. Take avay
the tariff on chinaware and the wages
of pottery employees would suffer eDr-
| mously. Either that or the pottersof
| this country would be driven out of
| business. They could not compete with
| the lower pay rolls of Europe. Ina

Poisoning the System.

1t is through the bowels that the pody

this trouble ly stimulating the liver and
