the other hand that the party broke faith with
the people And it may be added that the ma
jority of influential Republican newspapers in the
middle and extreme west reflected that opinion
The Republicans of Delaware therefore, 50 far
as State issues are concerned-and they affect the
Legislature should see that every promise made
in the platform is carried out
This means among other things that a new chsss
ter should be formulated for the city, broad and
progressive charter that would meet the needs of
the CITY, charter having in mind business-ke
administration Of Wilmington That is what pub
lie sentiment demands, what the independent vot-
ers especially, will insist on, and it is well for
politicians TO know that even in Delaware the in
dependent vote is gradually becoming the con-
trolling vote.
The platform means also that Congressman
Head and our Senators are to support the par
cells post when such measure is offered N Wash
ngton
The platform means that our ballot laws should
be thoroughly reformed and a simpiihed ballot
adopted. There is no serious objection TO a change
in the ballot law towards simplicity. The large
number of ballots that are tossed aside because
defective at every election has created great deal
of dissatisfaction with the ballot law.
The platform also says that consideration should
be given TO the question of a public service COM
mission for Delaware. This matter should be con-
sidered seriously, "threshed out" by the Legisa-
ture TO see If a reasonable Public Utilities Com
mission cannot re secured.
The platform calls for a good State highway
and on this point we do not believe there is any
dispute, as the Democrats also pronounced for
good roads.
These are few Of the questions mentioned in
the platform of the Republican State Convention
and they suggest food for thought 10 be followed
by action. The people of the State expect the Leg
islature TO carry out these reforms and il will
surely be up to the Republican members to make
good We have little or no doubt that they will
do so.

CARRY OUT PLEDGES.

l is NOT too early for the Republican mem-
= bers OF the incoming Legislature TO consider
seriously the carrying out OF the pledges made 10
the people by the Republican State convention.
The people of Delaware have given the Republi-
cans vote of confidence and they expect that the
promises made in the platform will be carried out
70 the letter. As we frequently said during the
campaign the Republican State platform was much
better than that of the Democrats in dealing with
State issues. The Democratic platform in the
main was reactionary. 1t looked as if il had been
made merely as a formality, for many questions
that it could have touched we're not mentioned.
The fact that the Democrats had weak plat
form and that as a-rule very ordinary candidates
we're nominated must have contributed largely 20
the defeat Of the party in this State Another
cause of the defeat was the poor showing made
by the Democrats when they secured control of
the government OF this city and the government
Of Kent county.
The Republicans therefore should make every
kind OF effort TO carry out the promise of the party
and Governor Pennewl in his message should
firmly insist that this be done.
Since the election, many observers have contend
ed that the defeat of the Republicans throughout
the country was due chiefly TO the charge that the
party at Washington broke faith With the people.
They say that the people believed and understood
that the campaign Of President Taft was based on
the assertion that there would be revision of
the tariff downward. After the election Cannon
and others of his kind maintained with consider
able bodness that there was no such understand
ing. that tariff revision did not necessarily mean
revision downward. Although it was strongly held
that the Payne-AIdrch bill was a revision down

port this ciain the vast majority Of the people

HINTS AT KNIFING.

HE DOVER DELAWAREAN hints at some
- mysterious reasons for the defeat Of the
Democrats in this State, but it is not ready TO ex-
press its views upon them until after an inquiry
Certainly the Democrats we're disappointed espe-
cially in Kent county Even on election day they
had no doubt about the result in Kent and they
did not seem to be disturbed by thoughts of cor
ruption or the buying of votes That came after
ward when IT was deemed necessary, following the
lead OF the newspaper in this city which at once
raised the cry Of money.
So confident we're the Dover Democrats Of vic
tory that our friends of the State News issued
ukase summonng all the roosters Of Kent county
to its Office to over the result of the election
but the roosters, wiser than the Democratic lead
ers and knowing how the election would 90, failed
TO heed the call and not even bantam responded
All the turkeys, too we're TO fall into Democratic
hands In the face of such confidence the thing
went the other way and there was an overturn in
the legislative ticket We don't know, of course
what the Delawarean may be limiting at, but we
might guess that it thinks some Democrats welded
the knife with telling effect on the Democratic
legislative candidates.
And it so, they merely did what they have done
many times before. They would prefer to see
Republican representing Delaware in the Senate
instead of one of the factonal Democratic leaders

OF an English regiment stationed in
Virginia shot pet crow belonging to a

the soldier to eat the crow. The farm

see that he did it. After the soldier
had consumed a portion OF the bird
he took his gun. presented it at fhe
