IN a controversy between the
Unior Republican of Georgetown
and the Smyrna Call, as to the out
look for the campaign in Delaware,
the former figures out how the
Union Republicans can and will
win out at the election and winds
up by saying:
We are going to elect our entire
ticket and have votes to spare.
Then you speak of what the ma
jority of the voters of Kent and
Sussex Counties are going TO do.
Well, Brother Brown, the majority
of the voters of the two lower
Counties do not even desire to win
the election by any underhand
methods. On the contrary the
Republican Party has never stolen
an election in this State while the
Democrats have, and the Courts so
decided. Will you deny it? Can
you point out any racality in the
Union Republican Party? What
was the financial condition of Sus-
sex County, for instance, prior tC
the time the Union Republican:
gained control, and what is it today
Under Democratic control the
country was getting deeper anc
deeper in the mire every year anC
County orders were sold at any
price the unfortunate holder coulC
secure for them. How is it today
Our present Levy Court, which by
the way is a Union Republican
Levy Court, has managed on
affairs so we'll that instead of in
creasing the indebtedness it ha
reduced it and will continue to re
duce it, and they have manage,
the County's affair so we'll that tn
once despised County order is n
longer hawked about but is wort
its face value.
Now, Brother Brown, will yo
tell us why it is that the Democrat
are so excited over the fact that W
have control of the election me
chinery? Is it because they de
pended upon the machinery in tn
past for their majorities? 1t is NJ
because they fear any rascality o
the part of the Union Republican
so much as it is the loss of a frien
that meant hundreds of votes
them, and we have yet to hear
a Democrat criticizing that way
winning when the Democrats ha
the machinery.

GIANT STRIKE PLANNED
Nine Workers Union May Call Out
Soft Coal Men.

nine Workers Union May Call Out
Soft Coal Men.
Hazleton, Pa, May 1.-THE anthra-
cite mine workers in convention yes
terday, in order to win their strike, |
unanimously decided upon plan that
if carried into successful operation
would practically tie up the industries
of the country, paralyze business and
inconvenience the people throughout
the United States. 1t is their desire
that a special national convention OF
the United Mine Workers Of America
be called as soon as practicable, for
tile purpose of endeavoring to have all
the bituminous mine workers, both Or
ganized and unorganized, involved in
the anthracite miners struggle. This
announcement was officially made by
| President John Mitchell in a statement
giving the result of the deliberations
of the delegates in convention.
If a special national convention is
called and the miners succeed in their
object it would affect more than $4,000
men, who are employed in and about
the coal mines of the country. Coal
would soon become scarce, and this
would ultimately result in the tying
up of railroads and all sorts of indus
tries that use large quantities Of the
fuel. 1t is doubted by some interested
persons here who are closely watching
developments that such a stupendous
movement could be brought about, for
the reason that the business interests
OF the country would not stand idly
by and permit such a plan to be put
into effect.
An absolutely trustworthy source lis
authority for the statement that the
special convention will be called prob
/ ably at Indianapolis, in the course OF
/, several weeks. According to the rules
of the United Mine Workers, a petit
ton signed by five Mine Workers dis
tricts is necessary to call a special con
, vention. The three anthracite district!
4 are unanimous for such a meeting, ant
1t is likely that the West Virginia dis
h trict and the Michigan district will con
D sent to the issuance of the call. Tn

ONLY WIsKER INDICTED.

If the New York papers give cor
rect idea of public sentiment in that
that city there is profound Indignation
grand jury in the Park Avenue tunnel
case.
The facts are well known to newspa-
per readers everywhere. Last month
there was a collision in the Park Aven-
ue tunnel. That tunnel is the entrance
to New York City. Seventeen people
were killed in the collision and many
others were more or less hurt Wisker
was the engineer of the train
that did the damage. At the in
vestigation of the accident it seemed
to be agreed that the engineer was not
wholly TO blame. In fact there
was a noticeable sentiment that
he was not to blame at ALL
1t was stated that he was a new man
on that part of the road, and that the
weather was SO damp and cloudy that
it was practically impossible to see any
of the tunnel signals. On the other hand
signals for the protection of trains
against accidents were very imperfect.
Old engineers, accustomed to the tun-
mel, said that dependence had to be had
upon the engineers ability to feel his
way through the tunnel rather than
upon the signals.
The officials of the New York Central
railroad knew the dangers of the tun-
mel. Their attention had often been
called to them. They had, however,
taken no steps to guard against them,
at least no steps that reduced the dan
gers to a minimum.
But Engineer Wisker has been in
dicted and the officials of the New
York Central have not. The people of
New York think there has been a mis-
carriage of justice. Wisker, they say,
had to run his train on schedule
time or risk losing his position with
the railroad. Without signals to warn
him of danger in the tunnel he could
have done no better than he did, but
the railroad officials could have made
the tunnel comparatively safe by hav-
ing signals placed in it that could be
relied upon in every instance.
The question is, why was it that the
humble, and comparatively friendless,
engineer was indicted while the power
full railroad officials were held to be
innocent? An answer to this question
is demanded.

HANNA,s AMBITION.

The politicians are wondering II
Senator Hanna is seriously thinking
Of becoming a candidate for the presi-
Dental nomination of his party. Sew
eraI things have happened recently
] that have excited a suspicion that he
/ has such an ambition.
At the sixteenth annual banquet of
the Ohio Society of New York at the
/ Waldorf Astoria in that city on Sat-
urday night he made a speech in
which he said that the workman should
share with the capitalist the fruits of
| the country's prosperity. and that it
was the duty of the captains of in
| dustry to see to it that the workman
got his fair share of the profits of
capital and Labor In the course of
his remarks he said: Men who are
interested in this civic federation have
| decided that in this great country of
ours there shall be no distinction of
| classes: that the man who may have
! lacked the advantages of birth and
education vouchsafed to others may
appeal successfully to his more for
tunate brother to help him up, and not
to Cypress him. Your national lead
ers, your captains of industry must
realize this. They must join in this
movement, and by their cooperation
must make this an epoch-the dawn
of new era of general prosperity
never before dreamed of in this coun-
try"
tI,a
means that the capitalist must share
his profits with the workman. To what
extent Senator Hanna would have him
share them was not apparent from
anything he said. The Senator should
have gone into particulars. If he is
sincere he will take an early oppor-
tunity to give details, and even put
into practice his plan for lifting up
those who are not so fortunate as to
get fair share of the general pros
perity.
1t is we'll known that Senator Hanna
is a prominent member of the com
mittee appointed by capital and labor
some weeks ago to prevent strikes
and lockouts, and it is said that on
several occasions he has shown very
decided inclination to lend labor a
helping hand. 1t is for this reason
that politicians are asking whether or
not he has presidential aspirations.
1t is possible of course that he is
aiming only to give labor a larger
share of the profits of commerce and
industry. 1t is only just to him to
suppose that such is his purpose. If
he has an Interior motive in pursuing
the course which is now attracting at
tention the fact will soon crop out.
There is no doubt that he is a shrewd
politician. His political career shows
he is. But this extraordinary man

1t is genuine will become evident in
the very near future. If he puts in
practice his theories there will be
good ground for thinking that the la
