ItREn EpEN RAcH AGAIN

Mr. Fred Eden Bach is now getting
chance to explain certain phases Of
his political conduct and we propose to
pin him down to a few points, and not
allow him to wander all over the earth
in the endeavor to throw people off the
scent. When Mr.. Bach throws off the
mask and becomes a full-nedged apollo
gist and advocate Of Addicks, it be-
comes the province of a public journal
TO review his record. The reporter who
interviewed this statesman yesterday
was careful to state that Mr. Bach was
reluctant to talk, and therefore the pub
lie was confined to a column or two.
Evidently had he been in the humor
we should have had a volume to read.
Mr.. Bach turns upon DR.. Ball and
Mr.. Walker and seeks TO drag them
into the controversy. 1t is unnecessary
to state that neither of the gentlemen
we're aware that the article to which
Mr.. Bach alludss was either written or
contemplated. Hence his remarks, re-
lating to them are gratuitous.
The rest of the interview was COM
posed of evasions in which he gives us
the inside history OF the War Depart
ment. including the opinions Of the
President. General Wood and Fred
Eden Bach We shall not pause to
pick flaws in this Ingenious evasion OF
the questions at issue, but proceed &c

We wish to ask again why Mr. Bacl
gave out TO the people Of New Castle
the story that he had resigned from th'
rural mail eervice when as a matter o
fact he had not? It would be a pleas

A Compromise in Delaware
l the Philadelphia RECORD.

From the Philadelphia Record.
The Democrats Of Delaware have Of
fered the Regular Republicans of that
State as liberal concessions as can Dos
sibly be asked, and nothing but an in
veterate and stupid spirit of party can
cause their rejection. In order to re-
lieve the State of the Addicks plague,
which is the chief object Of the Regu-
lar Republicans, the Democrats offer
them the long term for United States
senator. with their nine members of
the Legislature, while willing to take
the short term, with a membership Of
the Legislature amounting to nearby a
majority. BY this generous compro-
mise Delaware would be fully repre-
sented in the Senate on all questions of
interest to the State and on mere
party questions the two senators would
be paired. Under this plan in two
years the Regular Republicans would
have the opportunity to elect another
senator for by that time the Addicks
obstruction would be at an end or be
reduced to- harmlessness.
Above all. under the terms pro-
posed Delaware would be relieved OF
the voters assistant law an infamous
measure which has greatly facilitated
the work Of the Addic1s faction in cor
rupting the suffrage. This result alone
would be of more value to the State,
10 its good name and to its political
future than all that u involved in the
election Of two senators. Whether
this liberal and public spirited sugges-
ticn shall be accepted by the Regular
Republicans or not. its offer is highly
creditable to the Democrats Of Della
ware. Could anything like this be said
in behalf of the Regular Republicans
should they reject a proposition SO

A cnANonFon srRoNc MnN

Toere is no use in Disgusting the fact
that because Of the proposition Of the
twenty-one Democratic members Of
the Legislature to the Regular Repub-
lican members. the latter are placed in
a delicate position, one involving vast
responsibility. 1t must not 0e forgot
ten that The position Of these eight or
ten men is peculiar They represent q
phase of Republioanism-the best
phase-and they also represent the
public demand for decency. which lifts.
or should lift them above The plane OF
mere partisanship. II is difficult TO
pursuade men who have been elected
TO office by the party machinery TO
forget the sentimental feeling that
every thing must be done in the party
me-dinicult 10 take that plane
which regards partisanship as subordi-
nate to the public welfare, yet unless
Regular Repi11,icanism represents this,
IL represents nothing.
We do not pretend TO say that the
Regular Republicans should accept the
proposition rendered by the Demo
Gratis. Something must be left to their
Judgment and patriotism. But in this
go gency we cannot fail to recall that
Similar combinations have been made
In the past carrying in their train only
honor and satisfaction. II we mistake
not. IT was combination of Repub-
licans and Democrats against the
Wings that sent Charles Sumner to
the Senate from Massachusetts. Della
wareans will remember that John NJ.
CLAYTON was sent back to the Senate to
vindicate his course in the matter OF
the Clayton -Bulwer treaty, by the aid
OF Democratic votes.
II would be something surely to get
rid OF the incubus OF Addicxsism. And
should the Regular Republicans decide
to accept the Democratic profler, the
Union Republicans alone would be to
blame. They, too, hold a key to the

A splendid opportunity is afforded the

members Of the Legislature to shake
of the blight of corruption which since

nearly twice as much.
Speaking of its effectiveness in kill

tons Valley Forge camp ground

the Washington headquarters and
some of the land about, but the

The Legislature is asked to pass a
bill authorizing the purchase by the
State of the rest of the camp ground
and its conversion into a public park.
The measure will naturally have a
