The September Number Of the American
Boy.

The handsome football cover in colors
that adorRs the September number of The
American Boy marks further step in the
very successful effort of the publishers of
this magazine to produce what they claim
to be "the best boys paper in the world"
The text and illustrations of this number
are OF the most interesting character.
The continued stories by Tomlinson,
Stratemeyer, and Alger are the chief,
features around which the boys interest
will center this month. The efforts Of
the publishers to organize boys into bands
for literary and athletic pursuits, their
efforts to get the paper into the hands Of
shHt-in boys, and their scheme for re-
warding boy heroes and boy prize win
ners in school as set forth in this paper,
will not he overlooked by its many read |

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

We, the representatives of the Republican
Party Of the state OF Delaware in convention
assembled at Dover on the fifth day OF Sept.
A. D., 1906, adopt the following declaration of
principles
First-We reaftirm our faith in the eapacl-
" Of the Republican party to govern this
country with practical wisdom as shown by
the prosperous condition OF the country un-
der successive Republican administrations
and believe that The carrying out Of our
present national policies depends upon the
election OF a Republican Congress. We are
proud Of the brilliant administration Of Pre-
sident Roosevelt, and we uphold him in the
fight for universal recognition OF the princi-
pie of square deal among nations, between
the several sections Of this country, between
the capitalist and workingman and the cor
pOratiou and the individual.
We commend the splendid record Of the
rfv-ninth Congress as shown by the enact
ment into laws Of much cOsamendable legis-
latiOn.
We commend and endorse the services OF
our present Representatives at the National
Legislature In securing for Delaware the
adoption OF measures tending to afford
greater facilities for the transp portation Of our
products by water.
We congratulate the citizens OF Delaware
upon the able, honest and economical ad-
ministratlOn OF the executive department of
the State by our present Governor, and we
pledge to him our hearty and continued sup
port during his administration.
We believe that a revision OF the present
tariff laws in the near future would be acne
ficial to the great mass OF the merican peo-
on imports from the Philippine Islands.
We commend the efforts OF the President
and the Department OF Justice in a rigid en-
fOrcement OF the antitrust laws.
We pledge our Representatives In the next
General Assembly to com plete the amend
ment to the State Constitution which repeals
the requirement OF the payment OF a fee for
registration as qualification to vote.
We favor the submission to the people Of
this State as provided by the Constitution Of
1he question OF the regulation Of the sale OF
intoxicating liquors as beverage.
We demand proper legislation by the ap !
prOaching General Assembly for the regula- /
tiOn Of weights and measures whereby the |
purchaser shall secure what he buys and the 1
seller shall be required to furRish what he
sells.
We approve of the further improvement Of
eur roads under suitable and economic prin-
ciples.
We favor the payment to the State and
OF interest on public funds deposited
In banks and elsewhere.
We are opposed to the illegal use OF money
NJ elections.

THE wheels of justice in Della
ware have moved quickly in the
case of negro, who attempted a
criminal assault on lady and her
daughter in New Castle county,
near the site where another brute
was burned at the stake three years
ago. This human brute is now in
the workhouse serving out a SEN
tence of fifty years, imposed by the
Honorable Chief Justice, aHd all
was accomplished within a few
hours aftert hear rest. If Ifcastration
were added to the sentence, it would
meet popular approval.

An Appeal to Voters.

Republican voters of Delaware
should carefully consider the ques-
ton of the nomination and election
of members of the coming Legisla-
ture. It looks as though the Re-
publicans would control the next
session of the General Assembly.
Therefore it is imperative that men
should be chosen to that body who
will make a creditable record. The
future of the party in a large
measure will depend upon the do
ings of the next Legislature.
There is a well-de6ned effort on
the part of certain leaders of the
Republicans to fill the General AS
sembly with men who will obey the
commands and behests of those sell
fisk influences that pat their selfish
interests above the welware of the
party and the interests of the people.
To these meH the welfare of the
party is entirely subordinate to the
of their own pocketbooks. |
The party to them is merely a means
through which they can guard their
0wn interests and bring prosperity
0 themselves by taking what right
nlly belongs to the people or by
lacing upon the people the burdens
Ihich these interests themselves
iould share.-Evening Journal.

You Should Understands It.

A campaign of education which
will undoubtedly set voters to think
ing has been begun by the Ihitia-
tive and Referendum League in this
State.
The proposition Of government
as set forth by the advocates of the
Referendum is now in successful
and satisfactory operation in Swift
zerland, Australia, Idaho and Ore
gon. It possesses features entirely
at variance with the accepted theo-
ries of government by political par
ties and its propositions are worthy
of every earnest citizens most care
full thought.
The idea that law can be placed
upon the statute books of our State
which will make hereafter every
law, or even certain classes oflaws,
subject to a decision of the people
if they so desire it, before such leg
islation becomes effective is a new
idea to most voters. The further
idea that legislators elected by the
people can thus be made to carry
out the wishes of the majority OF
their constituents, whether they are
personally so inclined or not is al
most revolutionary, and yet such a
law is within reason and may be
beneficial.
Every voter in Delaware will be
given the opportunity to study the
theory for himself, to hear it ex-
pounded by thinking men, and will
find in his nail the literature of the
league, so that there will be no eX-
cuse for not having some intelligent
reason for voting for or against its
The question itself is so far-reach-
ing in its scope and 50 revolutionary
to all present methods of conduct
ing our governmental affairs that
no person should remain passive in
the matter. Eych voter must decide
whether he desires this power to
make his laws to be conferred upon
him in the event that his duly-elec-
ted representative fail to do his
whole duty, or not.
The advocates the Referendum
declare that its adoption means the
death knell of bossism and the
emancipation of the people from the
rule of the money bag, the political
iuggeranut and the scheming cor
Dorate corrupter Of Legislatures.
Give the theory fair, impartial
md careful consideration and then
vote for or against its adoption in
his State.
Above all things, do not cast it
iside and remain a know-nothing
md do-nothiug where matters of
uch vital import are concerned
