oUTBURsT OF CRIME

THE season is prolific in crime Three crimes
a in this region have baffled efforts of the
authorities to solve them In Philadelphia
woman was killed in her own home. No one
seems TO know anything about the tragedy 1t
was shocking murder and it is hard to compre-
hend how, in built up section Of large city,
such a murder could happen with no clue being
left by which the murderer could be traced.
Delaware county. Pa. has a mysterious murder.
The authorities there have been unable to find
the slayer Of farmer pavitts wife
Here in Wilmington, within two weeks, we
have had two crimes Of magnitude A woman
and her daughter driving along puOnc highway
near a resort where there were thousands OF peo-
pie were brutally assaulted. 1t was not the fault
Of the assailant Of Mrs. Frankish and her daugh-
ter that there was not double murder.
Last night there was probable murder in the
city. -Four persons charged with murder are TO
be tried at the present term Of court They are
all negroes. The fifth probable murderer, that OF
last night, was negro. Human life it appears is
decreasing in value in this region
Might it not be well to try rigid enforcement
of the law as a means OF hating crime in this
Slater The object OF the law is to protect life and
property We fancy the people are becoming
weary of the crimes that are being committed a

Nc TRAIToRs, TIcKET.

r Asst night few dsgrunted, graftseeking
IL fellows. the discreditablo remnant of the
Union Republican party Of ibis Stlt. net in
secret mee''rss bchm locked doors and nomi-
mated what taey call county ticSc.. From start
80 finish he convention was an absurl'ty.
There had acen 70 call for it or election Of dele
gates 1t was gathering mostly Of well-known
graiters and votc-sellers. Not one representative
citizen OF the city or county was present.
The object OF the ticket is to extort money from
the Republican candidates, as was done two years
ago, and failing in that as they will, then they
will try to get money from the Democratic candi-
daies The men put on that ticket know they can
poll only a few votes, but they count getting
money IRON Republicans if they get off from
the Democrats if they stay on the ticket
Addc's presided at the meeting and praised
the makers Of the rebel ticket The fact that Ad-
dicks sat in the recent Republican State Conven-
ton seems TO make not the slightest difference to
him and he seems incapable OF seeing that as a
delegate in that convention he assumed certain
obligations 10 abide the action of the conven-
ton 1t is aprarent that his aim now is what he
said few years ago it would be- to turn the State
over to the Democrats when he found he could
not control the Republican party and the State,
1fii-c men tie now has around him are all capable
of CARRYING out his tratorous scheme On his
ticket are said to be men who have been bought
more than once by the Democrats, and two of
them are now holding office by grace Of the
Democrats.
There is but one way to treat such felows-not
as opponents but as traitors No decent, sef-re-
specting man in either party can have anything to
do with them. Let them huddle to themselves.
They are known and viii long be remembered
Their standing in the community and in the party
will be fixed. They will cease TO be factors in poll
tics except as hoaters. Such men cannot amount to
anything nor will any number Of men follow
them. Sooner or later they will run into the po-
litical sewer and only leave behind their miser-
able regulations to stain the name and make un-
happy the lives Of their children. Our advice is
for the Republicans to have absolutely nothing to
do with them, and leave them to that fate that
awaits traitors and political highwaymen

GOVERNOR SHOULD ACT AT ONCE.

- very disappointing that Governor Lea has
a not manifested some interest in the Frankish
crime. He is authorized by law to offer rewards
for the arrest Of criminals and a special fund is
placed at his command for that purpose The
felonious attack by that negro brute upon those
two women on the public highway was as afro
cious a crime as it is possible to imagine. ard no
man, be he governor or humble citizen, who re-
spects and honor women and want them pro-
tectcd from such horrible outfages, can do other
than exert his every effort to run down the assail-
ant OF Mrs. Frankish We are informed that the
victim of that brutal attack is about to use her
hard earned savings as reward for the arrest OF
the criminal What reproach upon the admins
tration il would be should she do such thing. 1t
may be that the governor is relying upon his very
capable State detectives TO run down the culprit
Well if ambling up and down Market street, loi-
tering on the curb and burning cigarettes will
induce that brute to come i'll the city and give
himself up then there is no need of Pinkerton
men or State reward. But, we doubt if such dill
gent efforts of our alert State detectives to find
the assailant OF Mrs. Franlish will amount to
anything
1t the governor desires to check the increasing
prevalence OF crime, II he wants to make it safe
Tor women to travel alone our highways. if he
would have brought to the bar Of justice the fiend
who made that assault upon two helpless women
Il he would defend and protect others as he would
his own, then let him act at once and offer sub
stantiai reward for information that will lead to
the arrest and conviction Of that negro Brute For
the governor 70 delay longer the performance OF
that duty will reflect dscredt not only upon him,
but also upon the State.

both said to favor Hughes but Odell
has a dark horse yet to be brought out
of the stable. IL Quigg carries nine
of the fifteen contested districts he
win win In the county committee. II
Parsons carries seven of the fifteen he
will defeat Quigg. Quisg is charged
with using Democratic money to de-
feat Parsons, he (Qugg) being an en-
ploye of Thomas T.. Ryan. Parsons is
charged also with having Democratic
gold, his father, John e. Parsons, be-
ing counsel for the Sugar Trust. If
Quigg should win, the renomination
of Governor Higgins viii be almost an
impossibilty and Odell probably viii
remain chairman Of the state COM
mittee. If Parsons should win Higgins
will have more chance eand Odell VIII
probably retire at the forthcoming
state convention. Both sides are con-
fident of victory and the chances are
considered about even. Parsons has
the advantage Of the patronage of the
governors office and Quigg is in a
better position with Republicans
through his respousal of Higgins
cause as a candidate for governor,
Hughes is very strong with the lanV
and file of Republicans, but many of
them balk at electing an employe Of
Ryan a Democrat. to the head of the
Republican party of the county.
Lawyers. however. seldom inquire
about the politics of their clients, and
Quigg denies that he is an agent or
lobbyist for Ryan, The result will be
bad for Governor Higgins or bad for
State Chairman Odell Either Hig-
gins viii be beaten in his race for the
governorship nomination or Odell will
retire from the state chairmanship.

ELDERS hint Ar
ELECTION BRIBERY


Presiding Elders S. NJ. Morgan and
Alpheus S. Mowbray, OF the Methodist
Episcopal Church. whose districts
comprise or include practically the
whole State OF DelawareS have issued
a ringing appeal to Methodist minis
ters and laymen to stop bribery and
vote bargaining,
Or, Morgan in the course Of his ap-
ped says:
The archboodler of our Peninsula is
quoted as saying that he has placed
in the hands Of his minions during the
fifteen years of his political -adyentur-
ing in Delaware three quarters Of a
million dollars to carry elections.
other sums. very considerable, from
other sources have been expended at
the. same time under the other party
auspicess and IN BIKE mapner for like
This prevailing system of bribery
mas not only corrupted and vitiated
the testimony at the ballot-box. but it
has befouled and benumbed the con-
science of the voters in ever-increasing
numbers and effect. The scope of this
shameful conduct and political degra-
dation will extend no further. The
depth OF this sink OF iniquity win go
no lower. Revulsion and revolution
have set In. We must and will pull
ourselves out Of our submerging in
fanny and shame and return to the
fat land OF political and civic right
eousness.
DR.. Mowbray In his appeal says:
Whoever sells his vote for any con-
sideration barters his franchise, sells
his manhood and renders himself the
degraded tool of corrupt men. The
alarming extent Of this evil is almost
beyond exaggeration. So common has
1 1t become that many are found to
apologize for the shameful practice as
a necessity, and to defend it as a
matter of political expediency. The
very fountain Of civic purity and
health hSs been corrupted.
such a condition calls upon the
church to cry aloud and spare not
The whole truth should be brought
home to the conscience OF the people
The utter degradation and shame OF
" all should be set forth. Good peo-
pie everywhere should refresh them
selves with new visions Of civic health
and righteousness and become faithful
witnesses TO the people of their lost
political condition.

Improve the Service.

Editor The Evening Journal.
Much has been said in the daily
papers about the Improved service on
the car lines In this city. / wish 10
say that the service has improved, but
that there is one line where the SER
vice can be considerably improved.
That line is the Wilmington. Chester

uled 10 leave the r., B. a w. station

hour and half hour. Sometimes they
do. More often they do not. When

disturbed throughout the trip. You
meet one or two broken down cars en-
route to Chester and at Chester you
disembark and hunt another car for
Darby. It is the same way on the re-
turn trip. There is no reason 1t seems
to me why an interstate trolley of the

railroad corporations, has declared against Mr.
Bryan's proposal of government ownership of
railroad corporations Colonel Bryan is sticking
to his opinions, which he said he reached after
long and careful thought and it is not likely that
he will abandon them. Bryan will probably have

REPORT ON AIRBRAKES

p. R. r. Says SO Per Cent. Of It's
Freight Cars Are Properly Equipped
More than 9S per cent. Of the freight
cars of the Pennsylvania railroad east
of Pittsburg and Erie are equipped with
airbrakes. This is declared in an OFF,
cial report just submitted by the rail-
roads management TO the Interstate
Commerce Commission in response to
a request that the common carriers OF
the United States forward true reports
OF the number of cars equipped with
airbrakes. The law governing air
brakes requires that not less than 75
per cent. shall be so fitted.
The report shows that 130,9t5 Of the
Pennsylvania's cars have the airbrakes.

order directing Its agents 70 refuse to
accept after June 20 cars Of other lines
