He knows that thousands of votes will

But no cartoon ever distorted his fea-

LOOKING BACKWARD" A TALE
OF THE DELAWARE REVOllJTl

The following letter, evidently in.
itended for someone whose address was
not given, was picked up on the street,
the other day and handed to MS. We
cannot resist the temptation to prini
! it. (Ed).
Adicksonia, Del, Oct 2S. 1912.
My Dear Friend:
Your letter asking for information
concerning Delaware affairs was duly
received and | hasten to give the de-
tails you wish. 1t is difficult to GO
back fer ten years and keep in mind
the conditions which obtained when
you left for the West, yet this is neces-
sary in order for you to thoroughly
understand the present system of gov
ernment.
OF course you have not forgotten the
days when we went to the polls and
voted for the men of our choice, and
were proud of the fact that all govern
ment was derived from the people 1t
makes me smile to think Of the
crudities of that system. 1t allowed
too much latitude for individual opin-
ions, and often the man who possessed
great wealth had no certainty OF Sc
curing the office he had bought.
You were here during the transition
period, and know the great struggle.
Mr.. Addicks. of revered memory, intro
duced an entirely new principle into
our politics. He maintained that the
people were not qualified to decide for
themselves what kind of a government
they should have, unless there should
be some means of obtaining their com
sent which could be properly measured.
He insisted that sentiment was not a
proper motive in deciding such matters,
and that a money test WAS the best.
You know how we fought that idea;
but / now see that we were wrong,
and that we were clinging to an impos-
sible and absurd ideal But he went
right along and carried out his theory.
He soon induced men like Senator Al
lee, Hon. G .R. Layton, Walter Hayes,
Esq, and Justice Bradley to see the
light as he saw it, and they soon be-
came ardent disciples and advocates of
the new creed.
Of course these gentlemen prospered
greatly in financial way, and became
the subject Of the envy of thousands.
This had the effect that Mr.. Addicks
desired, since it influenced them to en-
brace the new creed, and to become its
valiant supporters
So it went on until there was not a
voter who wished a consideration, who
was denied The theory was that the
candidate fer office, if elected, would
profit by it, and, therefore, that the
voter was entitled to compensation. OF
| course this was dome secretly at first
but in time it became perfectly frank
and open.
This accomplished, there were efforts
put forth to increase the market Ger
tain arguments were carefully pre-
pared to convince the various classes ci
voters that it was a duty they owed to
their families and to themselves tc
make their vote fetch the greatest pos

SENATOR noAR ON DEMOCRACY

Tho Democrats got a great deal OF
comfort out Of Senator Hoar's anti
expansion utterances, and would have
eagerly welcomed him into the Demo-
cratic fold. In a recent speech at Bos-
ton, however, he made it plain that
while he may not be in accord with all
Republican, policies, yet he is a Repub-
lican in all essentials. After paying a
glowing tribute to President Roosevelt,
he turned his attention to Democracy,
saying;
The Democratic party during all its
history has been the creator CT griev-
ances, never the redrosser Of them.
Has it cured a political evil in State or
nation for sixty years? It has caused
good many. II has threatened US
with a good many: Slavery and rebel
lion, and nullihcation and secession,
and civil war, and hard times, and dis
content, and fiat money. and debased
currency, and the free coinage of silver
and free trade, and socialism and vio-
lence, and fraud at elections. These
are all Democratic children. The men
who wanted such things joined the
Democratic party. And the men who
wanted TO cure or prevent such things
joined the Republican party.
What IS the condition in which these
Democratic quack doctors are asking
you to try their nostrums and give
them charge of the patient? The men
who proposed rag money to get rid of
the burden of the national debt, and
Dr. Bryan's financial policies to
cure the hard time which
President Cleveland had brought on,
are filling the yellow Journals with
their advertisements now. One of them
tells You, If NE be reported correctly,
that 95 per cent. of the corporation in
this country are bad. Another tells
you the way TO get rid of domestic
trusts Is to put everything they make
on the FREQ list, so that the foreign
trust can come intn our market also
and every honest individual manufac-
turer of that article must of course te
ground to powder between the two.
