EASY THING, SAYS DIR. MARSHALL.
He Informs T. o. du Pont How Republican
Harmony May be Brought About

he Informs T. o. du Pont How Republican
Harmony Nay be Brought About.
According TO the opinion Of Dr. George
W. Marshall Of Milford, insurance COM
missioner Of this State and chairman Of
the Kent County Union Republican Com
mittee, says the Morning News, there is
every prospect Of harmony between the
two factions of the Republican party in
short time, and he declares that il is now
'up to" the Republican harmony COM
mittee to make the same proposition
which was practically decided upon at the
conference recently held in Dover by Gen.
t. Coleman du Pont and a number of
Others who are prominent in the affairs OF
the Republican party in Kent county.
DR.. Marshall talked frankly yesterday
on the political situation. He said
"The members Of the Legislature elected
from Kent county who left the Union
caucus nominee last winter to vote for
Mr.. du Pont appear to have arranged for
q meeting OF certain Union district
workers with Mr.. du Pont at Dover. The
visit was much heralded; and, / notice.
has since been widely advertised. Its
object seems 10 be shrouded in mystery.
''Mr du Pont, understand, expressed
himself as being ready to do all in his
power 70 bring about a union of the Re
publican factions, on a basis Of open pri-
maries, majority rule, and the denial Of
no mans right 70 aspire to office; and,
as TO the Senatorships, that New Castle
should be given her choice in the cleo
ton of one, and Kent and Sussex the
choice Of one, wherever in the State he
may reside.
"Mr. du Pont is conceded TO be in abso-
lutte control Of the harmony committee Of
his faction. II his committee will COM
municate TO our committee a proposition
for a merger Of the factions on this basis
we will have harmony within twenty
four hours, and a common call for a State
convention within thirty days. Every
member of our committee is in favor Of
one party on this basis, and has so ex-
pressed itself publicly. A proposition
to that effect has been made by the Union
Republicans biennially for years.

mittee to do somethinglV

A Great American.

Yesterday was a legal holiday in Della
ware, one established by law in honor Of
the memory of one OF the greatest citizens
and Presidents of this country, Abraham
Lincoln. The occasion was marked by
various appropriate exercises, although
the observance was not as general and
thorough as the occasion demanded.
No other President of the United States
was subjected to the tremendous tests
which Lincoln was compelled to meet
Nor does il appear, from the reading Of
history, that any of them would have
met these tests as he met them.
No other President was so misunder-
stood by large section Of his fellow-citi-
zens as was Lincoln. No other President
was 30 well understood and so completely
believed in by the rest Of tho people as
was lincoln during the little more than
four years Of his fateful administration.
To no other President Of the past has
posterity given such a complete tribute of
faith, admiration and thorough under
standing, as has been accorded the
memory Of Lincoln. In this respect he
has proved pre-eminent.
He was a great man, great President,
And It is fitting that many Of the States
Of this Union have set apart the Anniver-
sary of his birth as an occasion worthy
Of special observance.

Poison in Whisky.

One of the results Of the Torrey-Alex-
ander religious revival in Philadelphia
was the conversion. last week, of saloon
keeper, one Matthew NJ. Farrell, who
now holds that his business is incompatible
with sound religious teachings and has
resolved to abandon IT, And so he has
formallypetitioned the court which grant
ed him license to sell Intoxicating liquors
to revoke the same.
OF itself this incident is not surprising.
Any great religious revival is likely to
bring about such a result. But there is
something surprising, even astounding,
in statement made by this saloon
keeper in his petition to the court asking
for formal revocation of his license.
"Ihe liquor trade has so degenerated," b"
says this regenerated dispenser Of intoXi-
cants, "that it is almost impossible to
purchase pure liquors, and it is a crime
TO furnish cologne spirits and fusel oil to
a man or woman who asks for whisky, and
yet it is done can no longer permit my
/ udlut 70 DC NVuuttNcu WIFI a uueluton
which distributes such poisonous potions,
as there can be no doubt that many Of
the cases where men and women have been
found dead have come to their death
through patronizing saloons selling the
vile decoctions under the guise Of liquor"
This man, it is said kept what is gener-
ally designated as "good" saloon-that
is, well-located well appointed, and pat
ronized by respectable people. Now, if
the proprietor Of such a place found it
"almost impossible to purchase pure
liquors." and was compelled to dispense
poisonous compounds, how many more
good" saloons are there throughout the
country in a similar position
Advocates Of pure liquors and pure
foods may find herein an interesting sub
iect Of investigation.

PROCRASTINATION.
he Habit OF Delay-some OF Its Conse-
quences-Causes OF This bad Habit

The Habit OF Delny-Some OF It's Conse-
quences-Causes OF This bad Habit
'Defes not TIL tomorrow TO be wise,
IomorIow's sun to thee may never rise. I"
Truly Il has been said that procrastina-
ton Is the thief of time. The habit Of
delay Is one of the most vicious faults TO
which mankind Is subject. In almost every
instance delays are entirely unnecessary
and are often due 20 carelessnese, but more
often to thoughtlessness. Strange ae it
may seem, this danger from delay ie en-
countered more often AZ result OF care
lessness or thoughtlessness about our health
or the health of some one dependent upon
us. How often Pneumonia could be pre-
vented N the victim had acted sooner.
Now Is the time to watch out for that
little cold. Now is the time to take steps
TO check Il, and the best way to arrest its
progress is to take Magee's Malt Emulsion.
This is the wonderful combination of Cod
Liver Oil, syrupy Diastasic non-alcoholio
Malt and Hypophosphitee. II primes the
system 20 that Il will throw on that little
cold' and prevent erch serious complica-
tions as Pneumonia. Bronchitis. Grip, &c.
Mhgeeu Malt Emulsion Is non-narcotic
and nor r-alcoholic. Nothing enters into Its
composition that is not of value to the sys-
tenn. II produces fat, keeps you warm and
makes you strong. Magee's Malt Emulsion
is a food, a medicine and a tonic COM
bined. Beware OF the wine preparations Of
cod liver oil. They contain no oil, so can
not possibly produce the benefits sought.
besides, the alcohol win cause reaction
after you cease taking Il, that viii leave
you in a worse condition than before.
Magee's Malt Emulsion will surely help
you. Start taking IL today and month
later compare yourself with your condition
of today. Don't delay, tomorrow never
comes. Remember, no wine, no whisky,
just food. Get a bottle today Of Il. b.

A man in Newcastle, Pa. Is suing the
city authorities for $4,000 damages, on
account of an accident by which he lost a
leg while coasting down steep hin on a
bob sled His contention is that as the
coasting was prohibited by city ordinance,
the police should have arrested him,
whereby the accident would have been
avoided. The failure Of the police to
arrest him he holds TO be an act Of negli-
gence on the part Of the city. II the law
sustains this contention II will put many
communities on their nettle 10 see that
their laws are strictly enforced by arrests,
II necessary.
