No Surrender to Addlcks

From Philadelphia Evening Telegraph.
An enterprising morning contempo-
rary, whose Washington news usually
stands the severest test as TO its relia-
bility, this morning printed a story
from the national capital to the effect
that President Roosevelt is about to
shift his support from the Regular Re
publicans in Delaware to the faction
headed by Gasman Addic1s. who will
hereafter be recognized as the true Re-
publlcans of the State, the ultimate
object in view being the filling Of the
two vacant seats i'm the Senate by Ad-
dicks and one Of his followers. We do
not believe that our esteemed contem-
pOrary's news is as dependable as
usual. and we certainly hope that such
is not the case.
According to the report no attempt
is to be made to secure the election of
Addicks by the present legislature.
that heing held to be impossible, but it
is proposed. through the influence of
Federal patronage, 60 elect a Iegisla-
ture in November which will be entire
ly controlled by the Gasman. Such a
Legislature, however, cannot be elect
ed without the help of the anti-Ad-
dicks voters in the State at large. and
that. there Is the best of reasons to
believe. would not be forthcoming.
If the Regular Republicans of Della
ware should abandon their opposition
to Addicks at this late day. they would
simply proclaim to the world that their
antagonism to the Gasman had been
carried on during all these years sim
ply for factional ends, and has mot
been based on the high grounds of
principle which they have so persist
emily and consistently proclaimed. But
President Roosevelt will assuredly not
lend his influence and power to the fur
therance of this scheme for turning
over the State of Delaware to the Gas
man. t.F

"Addlcks or Nobody"

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
OF course, the rumor that the Presi-
dent of the United States is about to
interfere in the Delaware contest in
behalf of Addlcks. is followed 10y de-
malls from authoritative sources in Del
aware. These stories tend to create
false impressions. 1t is made to appear
that the Regular Republicans who have
opposed Addicks are the perverse and
obstinate factionists; that Addicks is
the martyred Republican, and that, for
sooth, the President is tired OF the
high-minded and self-sacrihcing Regu-
lars because they stand in the way Of
Republican success.
That is ridiculous. In the Legisla-
ture of 1895 the Republicans were in
control and Colonel DUPONT was their
candidate. They mustered fifteen votes
I'm his behalf. but not one Of the four
votes controlled by Addicks went to
the suspect of the Republican candi-
date. and. in consequence, the Demo
Gratis at the following session elected
senator.
"Addicks or nobody" has been the
attitude of the Addicks party ever since
with the result that tho State is with.
out any representation in the United
States Senate.
On the other hand the Regulars have
had no one candidate. but recently sub
mitted a plan of compromise by whici
/ the Addicks party could actually choos'
two OF their own men for senators. Ad
dicks alone was barred.
Addicl1s appears 10 be anything bu
LA Republican. He alone has stood II
the way of Republican success, an
does not seem TO deserve much con
? sideration from the head of the Re
publican party. nor is there the leas
likelihood That he will receive it.

Another Defamation
rom the New York Press

From the New York Press
An almost incomprehensible feature
Of the program Of the Democrats to
involve President Roosevelt in their
aims and schemes is the manner in
which they constantly intermingle di-
rect praise of him for his reputed lean
ing toward their cause, while at the
same time attributing to him motives
and actions which slandering him by
inference. are likely to injure him in
the esteem Of the Republican party. A
Washington news dispatch now going
the rounds of the Democratic prints,
for example. credits TO the President
the intention of taking up the cham
pionship Of Gas Addicks in his notori-
Gus attempt to steal away the senator

election a Legislature can be chosen

that will send Addicks and an Addicks
man to the Senate. and that is what
he is endeavoring to accomplish" 4"
Proof positive of the Presidents COM
pllcity in the Addicks conspiracy is
furnished in the assertion that senator
Scott. OF West Virginia, is said to
have been delegated as the representa-
tive of the President to bring about
this result: and additional testimony
is given against the President in the
following:
IL is said that Senator Scott has al
ready succeeded in cOrralling several
of the DUPONT leaders. although no
display is made of the fact as yet. With
the influence of the ADMINISTRATION
back of him, it would be greatly sur
prising If he should not accomplish the
task set for him, difficult as it now
appears"
Difficult" of course, because the Re
publican party of Delaware which has
long resisted the attempt OF the car
pet-bagger Addicks to buy their party
and Legislature, is still determined to
prevent that disgrace to the State of
Delaware and to the Republican party.
It is not sufficient, however, for the
Democratic newspapers to charge
President Roosevelt with having con
cluded to shift TO Addicks" by reason
of things that "set him to thinking
and other circumstances having
arisen One might have supposed
that the bare narration of
the slander would have been
deemed damaging enough to
Mr.. Roosevelt not only in the eyes of
Delaware Republicans, but of all Re
publicans and all citizens who have
admired the gallant stand OF the sturdy
ReDublicanism of that State against
the debauchery of party and the barter
of senatorships To have mentioned
the defamation as a fact we say, with
out further garnishment, might have
been expected to satisfy the malignant
purpose Of the Democrats who seek to
bring disrepute upon the President, but

sly but striking effect:

aIhe Delaware Republican
From the Philadelphia Press.
Several newspapers yesterday print
ed a story to- the effect that President
Roosevelt had decided to take a new
position in Delaware politics, and THAT
henceforth the whole strength of the
Administration would be thrown in ia
vor of the Addicks faction
This story is utterly improbable If
the President has made any such de-
termination, he has made IL within a
very few days. There is not the slight
est reason to believe that he has done
so, but every reason to believe the con-
traly. Such a decision would be a COM
plete reversal of the position which
the President took soon after his acccs-
sion, and which no has faithfully held
ever since. He could not condemn and
repudiate himself i'm THAT manner.
Indeed, the story is not only improb-
able, but morally impossible. Congress
man Bail is the actual and recognized
representative Of the STAKE AS such he
is the adviser of the Administration I'm
Federal appointments. To disregard
him would be to trample on the rule
applied to every other State and this
would not be done. But Congressman
Ball is the head of the Regular Repub-
licans Of Delaware. and his recognition
is their recognition.
The details of the story emphasize
its intrinsic improbability 1t is said
that Senator Scott, of West Virginia.
has been charged with the duty of
carrying out the proposed program.
That statement is enough to stamp its
character. The Administration does
not call in the senator of another State
to override the regularly chosen rep
resentative.
President Roosevelt would doubtless
like to see the Republicans of Delaware
act together So would the Republi-
cans of the country. The one obstacle
to that cooperation has been the pre-
posterous attitude of Addicks that the
fruit of Republican success must be Ad-
dicks or nobody President Roosevelt,
we may be sure, Is not going to stand
ON an "Addicks or nobody" platform.
He is in favor Of morals in politics.
