uNroRruNArE HONESTY

The Union Republican organs are I'M
advertently telling us the whole truth
about the Voters Assistant bill. They
are doing the best they can, for the act
cannot be defended save by lying. OF
by the use Of arguments that you can
drive a horse and wagon through. This
bit from the Milford Chronicle is a fair
sample:
senator Connars remarks on the
Voters Assistant Repeater bill were a
blunder that should not have occurred,
and with mOIe legislative experience
that gentleman would not have made It.
His honesty OF purpose is not question
cd. and his intent to point out the ne
cdssity for maintaining the law as an
aid to those needing assistance to cast
their vote, is admitted; but the man
nor Of his statement nullified his argyll
ment for the bill, and had 1t needed a
single vote to pass it, Senator Conner S
speech would have brought it.
Now reduce this to simple language
and we have two propositions;
Senator Conner was honest in his
speech. and
senator Conner's speech WAS unfortu-
nate.
What are we to infer from that state
ment? Isn't the inference perfectly
plain that the Chronicle holds that II
was deploral5le that Senator Conner did
not lie? He told dne plain, unvarnished
truth. and that is what grieyes the
Milford paper. It says so.
Now, gentlemsn Of the Union Repuo-
Mcan party. you are placed in a POSI-
uon where the lime-nght can play upon
you. In your defense OF law which
encourages bribery, makes it easy
shields the briber, and furnishes a sys
TEN Of bookkeeping, under which not
penny Of the briber's money can ID
lost. YOU have ore Of two courses
Either brutaly admit the purpose o
the law, and urge its retention on IN
grounds Of Union Republican necessity
or resort TO plain lying that will deceiv

BODY REINTERRED
IN HISTORIC GROUND
Remains of Former Governor
TruiLt Now Rest in Bar
rett's Chapel Graveyard
Special to the Evening Journal.


Dover. April 4.--The remains of for
mer Governor George Trutit, one
of the State of Delaware's s
first governors, have been rein
terred in Barratt's Chapel Gene
terry, near Frederica, where many
prominent Delawareans are buried. For
nearly 100 years Governor Truths body
has been lying in a private burying
ground on the farm where he lived, be-
side that of his wife and daughter. This
plot was formery in excellent condi-
tion, in crypts Of solid masonry. This
extended two feet above the surface OF
the ground, and was surmounted by
fiat marble slabs, bearing the inscrip-
tions of the three persons. The burial
plot was at the end of a large barn
and cattle for generations have grazed
around the masonry.
The bodies OF Governor Truitt anC
his family were placed in new recep.
tacles and conveyed to the historic Bar
rats Chapel. The marble slabs have
been cleaned and polished and the epi
taphs have been made legible. Gover
nor Truitt was inaugurated Januar!
IL, 1908, and served the full term. HI
died in January 1918, at the age of 62
Mrs. Truitt died in 1923. The recen
session of the General Assembly passes
the act for the removal of the body o
the former governor.

without opposition, as its nature and
necessity were thoroughly understood
On that committee were two Union Re-
publicans, two Democrats and one
Regular Republican, and they
were unanimous in their support Of the
measure. Senator Conner, the Union
Republican leader, remarked in urging
the passage Of the measure that under
our old system il WIS "a wonder that
somebody hadn't stolen the State"
What causes Governor Hum to hesi-
tate in signing the bill? Well, it is ru-
mored that the Secretary Of State is
opposed to the measure. and it is just
possible that G. r. Layton may be able
to defeat a whole Legislature. The NEW
act would compel a comparison Of the
books Of the Secretary of State with
those of the Auditor. 1t would give
the latter increased powers and raise
the office to one OF greater dignity and
Importance. 1t would also allow the
Auditor an increase in salary, and it is
well-known that the Secretary Of State
has a horror OF paying out money for
salaries which do not go to the faith

VISIONS AND nnnanrs

Yesterday, out OF the fullness OF a
warm and generous heart, the Evening
Journal threw bouquet or two at its
contemporary, the Morning News. II
had made the discovery that the Penn
sylvania railroad would build its
new station on The exact spot that Is
occupied by the present structure, and
since this had been understood for a
year or more, we rejoiced greatly that
the News had made the discovery
and had given the story to am eager
and expectant public. 1t matters not
that our contemporary has a new loca-
tion for the edihce this morning. We
are led to believe that its news of yes
terday was perfectly reliable; so we
see that there are to be two new sta
