DEMOCRATIC VOTE FELL SHORT.

HE Delaware State News makes pertinent
n comment about the result Of the election in
Kent county showing that the Democratic vote
was not fully registered this year as it was
two years ago
In 90S the Republicans poed .3998 votes in
Kent and the Democrats got Abs. This year the
Democrats poled 3,8lO and the Republicans had
1899 These figures show that the Democratic
loss was greater than that OF the Republicans
for an off year, and the loss was sufficient, 10
account for the defeat of the Democrats in some
of the close Legislative districts.
The News asks why the Democrats did not get
their vote registered. II seems TO be that lack
OF work on the part of the Democrats was one
reason for their defeat in the county and the same
may be said of other places.
The Democrats we're not so energetic they
were two years ago when the election of sena-
tor was not at stake. With a senator involved,
more attention was paid by the Democrats to Sc
curing legislative candidates favorable 10 this or
that senatorial aspirant and the jealousies which
have disturbed the party for some years cropped
out again.
But we don't SUPPOSE that such matters as have
been mentioned by the News and the Index Of
Dover have any weight with persons who raise
the cry of purchased elections. They have be-
come so used TO giving that reason that it would
be unnatural for them TO think of any other

Editorial Opinion
AIdrich Money BiIL


Baltimore American.
Senator Aldrich made his biggest
bid for fame in the leadership he gave
the cause Of currency reform. The
turn OF the political tide makes him
anxious to see the passage of a bill
providing for some changes in the
currency machinery of the nation
the creation of a central bank in par
ticular. He had digested the mass OF
materials cleaned by the monetary
commission in its world study. The
ponderous tones that will embalm
this report Will remain a literary
monument of use to the few special
lists In the field of contemporary cur
rency systems in use by the principal
nations. Mr.. Aldrich appreciates the
fact that reform Of the currency is
not a party matter, but he appreci-
ates as fully that in the hands OF his
own party the proposition has the
best chance for success. Therefore.
he is anxious to get the bill through
upon the reconvening Of Congress.
Two years more and the temporary
Treasury expediont devised by Sena-
tor Aldrich and Mr.. Vreeland, OF the
House, will expire, and the country
Will once more be thrown back upon

less there shall be passed n bill pro

rency system Of the nation cannot be
accomplished In short order, and the
people may be better disposed TO have
the subject put on for more matur,
action than TO have il acted upon a.

session will be too short TO do one
half the things that will need doing

Il growing in popular favor. The east is slowly
taking up the subject
The idea Of the commission form OF government
IS efhcency-giving the taxpayer dollars worth
of value for his dollar paid in taxes.
The plan is attracting notice in New Jersey. Since
the election of Mr.. Woodrow Wilson to be COVER
nor of that State, the Jerseymen have awakened

PAYERS when the latter are fully aroused
Following the election a convention has been
planned by the commercial bodies OF the chief
cities Of New Jersey for the discussion OF the
commission form Of government. The secretary
OF the Trenton Chamber OF Commerce has issued
the call for the convention and says that not
only arc New Brunswick, Newark and Trenton
considering the new plan but that Paterson Cam

ABOLISH THE COLONIES? NEVER!
~ ORMER CHIEF JUSTICE BALDWIN.

+ ORMER CHIEF JUSTICE BALDWIN, who
n has been chosen Governor of Connecticut is
known as conservative Democrat, one who
sticks by old times and customs. In fact one of
the arguments urged against him during the hot
campaign in the nutmeg state was that he did
not keep up with the times. 1t is therefore un-
likely that he will give serious thought to the
suggestion that as the governor he should do
away with military staff and have no colones in
gold lace surrounding him on important occasions
Perhaps the new governor may not think the
colonies are necessary TO the peace and good order
and happiness of either himself or the State but
he would be overturning all precedents should he
follow the advice of the anti-colonel writer
II may be that the coonels in these days are
not in high repute. Heavy have been the whacks
taken lately at Colonel Roosevelt and Colonel
Bryan, but Colonel Harvey OF New York the spon-
for Woodrow Wilson and Colonel watterson
on the winning side.
Ii would OF course be great disappointment
should Governor-elect Baldwin have no colonels.
Many sturdy Democrats who have been out in the
cold for long time in Connecticut would like tc
warm their feet around a military fire.
Governor-eect Baldwin may please them b,
having staff composed entirely of generals. Al
any rate the custom of having military stats is
zoo hrinly fixed TO be uprooted by iconocasts.

NEW Jersey SENATOR.

q OVERNOR-ELECT WILSON will soon be
&2 called upon to express an opinion concern
ing an important matter affecting the Democratic
party Of New Jersey An informal primary was
held by the Democrats before the election 70 ex-
press the choice of the party for United States
senator should the Democrats win. At that time
perhaps large majority OF the New Jersey Demo-
Gratis did not think that their party had chance
in dozen of controlling the Legislature. The
great interest was in the Republican primary al
though some of the party leaders ignored it alto
gether and declared that any decision for senator
made at the primaries would have no binding force
on the legislators They could entirely ignore the
choice Of the people when eecting senator
At the Democratic primary James E. MARITIME
received more than $4,000 votes as the choice Of
Democrats for United States senator. These hg-
ures 10 be sure represent a small part of the Demo-
cratic voters Of the State but the friends Of Mr..
MARITIME are insisting that the Legislature shall re-
spect the verdict of the primary.
Ex-senator James Smith is believed to be an
aspirant for the place and as he was one of the
directing forces of the Democratic campaign Gov
ernor-elect Wilson will bend an ear to him. What
the waiting Democrats want is an expression OF
opinion by the governor as TO whether Mr.. Mar.
tine should be elected. There seems to be doubt
about the situation as several would-be senator:
declare they will get into the race if il is TO BE-
an open contest and the primary is to be ignored
But there has been much talk in New Ierse,
about direct primaries that the throwing over o.
Mr.. MARITIME would show that great many of III,
words for direct primaries are merely what tn,
horsemen used 10 call conversation" not 10 b,
taken sincerely. And If Governor-elect Wilson
and the new Democrats are to hold the faitl
Of the people they will have to be sincere.
