LoYAL ANn coNslsTENT.

The ticket has been named-the
ticket that was inevitable-and there
is little to be said that hasn't already
been said. The Regular Republicans Of
Delaware have been loyal Republicans
under very trying circumstances; had
IL not been for their sense OF loyalty to
the great party principles and tradi-
tlons they would probably have been
something else. They have supported
and defended President Roosevelt and
his administration. and they have
nothing to take back, As a matter Of
course they viii be found on election
day the champions of Republican prin-
ciples and policies and the earnest sup
porters Of the ticket named by the
Chicago convention. That is the kind
Of Republicans they are.
The national platform reiterates sub
stsntlally the sentiments Of the plat
form adopted by our state convention.
The candidate nominated is the candi-
date which we endorsed. Therefore,
the Regular Republicans. of Delaware
win be faithful to their professions and
their pladges, however they may have
been insulted by the national oonven-
ton.
But being consistent In keeping their
pledges made I'm their platform and in
their declaration as 20 the candidate,
they should also be faithful to them
selves. They have claimed that they
are the only true Republican party OF
Delaware and they sent delegates TO
the national convention and demanded
that they be admitted. They haven't
changed their opinions, and. therefore,
consistency demands that they nomi-
nate electors pledged TO vote for Roose-
welt and Fairbanks, and support them
at the polls. TO do anything else would
be an admission that the Regular Re
publicans were wrong in holding "a
convention and sending delegates to
Chicago; that the convention was right
in rejecting them and that the party as
party has no longer an excuse for
being.
Honesty, faithfulness. good sense
and consistency demand that IN this
campaign the Regular Republicans
shall stand by an Of their principles.
II they are the true Republican party
they should vote for their own electors;
II they are not. then they have made
a fight Of twelve years In vain.

STILL NO TRACE

Whereabcut of Dispatch Bearer
Troubles Diplomats.
SAILED ON KAISER WILHELM II.


Brother Of Assistant Secretary Of State
at Washington Left New York on
Mission to Europe June IA, but Failed
TO Land at Destination.
London, June 24.-The morning news
papers feature the disappearance Of
Kent J. Loomis, brother of Francis B.
Loomis, the American assistant secre.
tary of state, under headlines describ-
ing it as "the mysterious disappear
ance OF a dispatch bearer" etc None
Of the papers, however. adds anything
to what has been stated in the press
dispatches.
Mr.. Loomis has not been registered
at any of the London hotels, and up to
the present no one has been able to
find the slightest trace Of his where
bout.
1t is a startling diplomatic mystery
which is Just now occupying the atten-
tion of the authorities in London, Paris
and Washington. Mr. Kent Loonlis,
state at Washington, left America on
the Kaiser Wilhelm IL. on June IA on
a diplomatic mission 10 Europe, which
included the delivery Of important dis
patches to General Horace Porter the
United States ambassador at Paris
The liner, it will be remembered,
made a record run across the Atlantic
to Plymouth The ship afterward
crossed to Cherbourg, and there Mr..
Loomis should have landed
Loomis Did Not Land
A member of the American ambas-
sador's staff was waiting to meet him
and accompany him to Paris, but Mr..
Loomis did not appear and all trace
Of him had mysteriously vanished. No
one could tell what had befallen him.
His absence from among the passen-
gers who landed at Cherbourg from
the liner was promptly reported to the
ambassador at Paris.
So much Importance was attached TO
the matter that wireless telegraphy
was utilized TO communicate with the
liner, which had resumed its voyage to
Bremen.
1t was thought that by some odd
chance the diplomat had been left on
board and was being taken on to Ger
many.
The message reached the liner, and a
reply was received stating that the
vessel had been searched. but nothing
had been heard Of the missing gentle
man.
Those on board the liner came to the
conclusion that Mr.. Loomis must have
landed when the vessel touched at
Plymouth, and consequently, when OFF
Margate the commander of the Kaiser
Wilhelm H. sent a Marconi message
ashore announcing that Mr. Loomis
was missing and asking if he had land
ed at Plymouth.
The names Of seventy eight passen-
gers were officially recorded as having
landed at Plymouth. but among these
that Of Mr. Loomis does not appear
Whether he landed there or not can
not be definitely stated. The Plymouth
police, however. are making diigent in
Quiries, and Scotland Yard has been
communicated with.
Some mystery is said to be connected
with one American who landed from
the liner and who subsequently left for
London, and the police are endeavorinG
TO trace him.
AS. however, no reason can be sug
gested to account for Mr. Loomis leav
ing the ship when so near the end OF
The journey. the greatest anxiety as tc
his safety is felt.
