The PHILADELPHIA Record says:

VilC IdIucSu lOublll lOf uldlly years
this State.
Much interest surrounds the NEE
ing of the Union Republican Stat
Central Committee in this city ne1
Friday, and the Republicans wish
know whether the cotorie OF Dove
leaders proposes to take hold ofthine
in this county.
The interference Of State Chairma
Alice, in New Castle County matter.
caused such u cOmmotion that eve
the Addicks men throughout the cit
were preparing to form q secret OF
ganization to counterfeit the Alice
Layton influence in New Castle Eour
ty. Governor Hum, it is said, ha
become convinced that the Stat
Chairman should keep out of TIL
county, and it is whispered that tn
Addicks Committee meeting may in
form the faithful here that their al
fairs will not be managed from DC
yer.
The committee will also endeavo
to ascertain just what the Big Six ar
going to do and howmuch dependence
can be placed on this combination. /
clearing up of the political atmos
pherc is expected as result of thu
committee meeting.
The Regular City Committee isget
ting matters into shape:and will have
weekly meeting from now until til,
campaign. IL is expected that The
Regulars will hold their organization
as firm as ever, and after the prima
ries negotiate with the Addicks PEG
pie about division of the ticket.
Many Of the Regulars will insist
that DR.. Ball be renominated for Con
gress, but this will cause decided OPP
position. The Addicks men now say
the. wiiinot agree to the Congress
mans denomination. In the lower
counties the Anti Addicks Republi.
cans are preparing for the fight al.
ready, and the effect of the Federal
patronage,i it is thought, will givcthcm
Il considerable following.
In Kent County the talk now is
that the anti Addicks Republicans
will nominate straight out ticket
and not support the Addicks candidat.
es for county Offices, as they did at
the last electiona 1t is said, however,
that the Regulars in the close dis
tricts will support the Democratic
legislative candidates.
In Sussex County a similar courae
may be pursued. The Regulars
there have Il much larger follow
Ing than they have in Kent, and the
Addlcks county ticket was defeat
ea by them at the last election.
They say this was done because
DR.. Layton wouid not agree 10 their
terms There is little doubt if the
Regulars fight Addicks straiy hit
out on the legislative ticket it will
cause him to loose several import
ant districts.
Stories OF so called opposition to
the denomination of State Senator
Alice in his Dover Sen atorial dis
trlct are not taken seriously bv pol
itlcians here. Mr.. Alice is the head
aud front Of the Addicks Machine
of the State. and it is altogether
likely that hc'can have the Senator
ial Eominational in the fdlslrict as
he wis"es it. The district is nor
malIy Republican, and there is lit
Tie chance Of his defeat unless the
make special fight
against him.
ROTATION FOR CANDIDATES..
The "Regular" Republican County
Committee at its coming session will
consider the abolition Of the rule pro.
'iding for rotation by districts CT The
