OF course, there are men who are immune

there skulls from which 1t would be
impossible to remove brains, not because

parently without any brains at all.

IT is always we'll to act after ma
ture deliberation, but act promptly
and decisively when the proper
time arrives. At the first clash
between the leading men of the
Union Republicans, impulse caused
men to give expressions of opinion
which have since been modified
and after mature deliberations and
considering the situation, have ar
rived at'the conclusion that Sena-
for Alice is a martyr to the Repub-
lican cause in Delaware; and, by
his acts the party will finally arrive
at the point where it will meet the
next campaign with an undivided
front. We appreciate the aid given
to bring the party out from the po-
1itical bondage of the old assess
ment laws,and can never be a party
to any scheme that would work out
an injustice to Mr.. Addicks who
was the benefactor. We certainly
will not earn the right to be called
ungrateful as a Republican. The
Union Republican party has always
desired and held out the offer for
political unity through common
primaries in the past, and we see
no reason why it should now refuse
to take advantage of the oppor-
tunity to bring that condition
about now that the time appears
to have arrived. With separate
organizations Mr.. Addicks has no
chance of crowning his ambition
to go to the United States Senate
with success; but on the contrary,
we believe that he will have better
chance to succeed under the banner
of united Republican party. To
continueseparate organizations will
but weaken Republican chances at
the polls, and the present organiza-
tion in Kent and Sussex counties
will find themselves seriously
handicapped should another cam
paign be met with warning interests
for control. We are no
bolter, but believe in living up to
principles in all things.
