FOR HARMONY.

Gradually one by one. Republicans
are coming to the point where the de.
sire of the party to win over the DEM

q member Of the Legislature was in
Wilmington yesterday afternoon and
said:
AFTER much thought and careful
consideration, l am forced to believe
that every true Republican in the
state OF Delaware, who has the in
terest of the state, and the general
government at heart-no matter
whether he be Regular or a Union
Ropublican-should desire the heal

sit seems very clear to my mind
that unless the two factions arrange
their differences, and get..toge,her
very speedily, the victory which we
gained two years ago, will be lost for
years to come, and we will have be-
fond all doubt, two Democratic Unit

NskiGan Democrats Nominate.
DETROIT, Mich, Aug. Judge
George II. Durand of Flint, who filed
a vacancy on the supreme bench Of
this state in 1892 and who is classed as
a Gold Democrat, has been nominated
for the governorship by the Democrats
Of Michigan. Judge Durand did not
attend the convention nor authorize any
one to state that he would accept the
nomination If it should be accorded
him. The free silver element made a
vigorous fight to defeat him. Judge
Durand, it was stated, was OH a fishing
expedition in the northern part of the
state and could not be reached by wire,
but in spite of the absence of any def
mite assurance of his acceptance his
nomination was made unanimous after
the fourth ballot. The platform adopted
at yesterday mornings session of the
convention is devoted almost entirely
to state issues, the only mention of ma
tional issues being an Endorsement of

A Warming For EngIa nd

JOHANNESBURG, Aug. l. Lord
Miner, British high commissioner in
South Africa and governor of the
Transvaal, presided at an important
Church of England meeting held here.
Dealing with the question of organiza-

nation was liable to attach too little
importance to this matter at the pres
ent moment>ot general rejoicing and
triumph when the country's power as
a nation throughout the world stood or
appeared to stand higher than ever be-
fore. Lord Milner said he felt that

more perfect organization than had
been seen iB the past it would tumble

SMALLPOX patients from this city
will be received at the county hos
pital as heretofore. The trouble
was that the Trustees of the Poor
did not like the Board of Health
taking upon themselves the author
ity to order provisions to the amount
of several hundred dollars for fam
lilies who have been quarantned by
order of the Board of Health, Isend-
ing the bills to the Trustees of the
Poor to pay. The Trustees contend
that the city should look after and
bear the expenses of those afflicted
with smallpox. But as tc the re-
port that smallpox patients would
not be admitted to the Emergency
Hospital, that is incorrect.
The revenue derived from the
property owners in Wilmington is
largely III excess of that paid by
real estate owners in the county
and therefore the county has the
right to take charge of the poor I'M
fortunates who may be afflicted
with this loathsome disease. The
Trustees of the Poor cannot refuse
to admit smallpox patients to the
Emergency Hospital, but they can
refuse to pay the bills contracted by
the Board of Health. All orders
given by any of the four Trustees
residing in this city will be a guar
antee of the payment for provisions
when needed by the family under
quarantine by the Board of Health.
ONE Of the results of the strike
Of the miners in Pennsylvania, was
the killing of several men, including
two policemen and the woundiug of
40 others. At Shenandoah Pa, a
reign Of terror wa, started Wedncs-
day, compared with which the riots
of 1900 were insignificant. The
mob numbered 5000 and swept
everything before it. The miners,
as body, cannot be held account
able for the inhumau aces OF an uu-
ruly mob.

THAT OIL COMBINE.

Facts Regarding the Rockefeller
ROthSchl ld-NObel- Intereats.
~ ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 1.-The
facts Of the reported oil combination
between the Rockefeller, Rothschild
and Nobel interests are as follows:
The Russian oil companies and the
English oil companies at Baku have
been attempting all winter long to
combine for export in competition with
the Rockefeller. Rothschild and Nobel
interests. The projected combine de.
manded preferential shipping rates
from Baku and Batoum, which the
government refused. The existing COM
bine then offered to take in the pro-
jected combination at the initiative Of
the latter, but owing to the inability
of the English companies at Baku and
the Russian companies to agree among
themselves the conferences to this end
failed months ago.
The existing combine divides the
English market on percentage basis.
