system residents of a district in
which the party is in a minority
have no say in the choice Of a Sen
ator. For instance Democrats north
Of Sixth Street in this city, or Demo.
Gratis of Milford Hundred, if the
Democrats should control the Leg
islature, would have no voice IN
saying who the Senator should be
because they would have no mem
Der of the Legislature A primary
vote would let them in. OF course
no primary vote would be binding,
but it should give the man who
won at the primary an immense ad-
vantage before the Legislature. It
is usually accepted, where followed,
as binding.
Democrats are considering the
matter. II IS in the stage Of discus
sion, and it is highly probable that
it will come before the State Con
vention. Perhaps some Democrat
may be able to suggest another plan
different from what has been con
sidered.
Any Democratic primary election
would certainly be interesting. The
party leaders believe they have the
best chance in years TO control the
Legislature, in fact to win the State. |
They are encouraged by the fact |
that the Republican majorities have
declined of late. With FIVE or six
aspirants for senatorial honors in a
primary mixup the fur would fly,

FIGHT FOR RESUBHISSION.

As the campaign grows older it
is very apparent that there will be a
determined effort made at this cleo
tion by the liquor interests TO secure
the election of enough members of
the Legislature from Kent and Sus-
sex Counties to resubmit the ques-
tion ofthesale of Intoxicating liquors
to the voters thereof. So that .the
temperance people without regard
to party afiliation must be on their
guard and the leaders Of each party
given to understand that wet
candidate will not receive the votes
of the temperance men of his own
party.
This is a question upon which
men feel, as matter of principle,
that they must vote against the can
didate Of their own party, if neces-
sar,', tokeep out the licensed saloon.
And while it is an issue aside from
the political issue between parties,
yet the parties are interested, be-
cause to secure the support of the
members of their own party the lead
ers must consider the leanings of
their legislative candidates, so that
the parties, try as they may, cannot
avoid the issue.
We believe the Republican party
sholud meet it squarely and nomi-
nate candidates in every district who
are known to be opposed to a resub-
of this question in Kent
and Sussex Counties.
We have no fears of the result of
such resubmission in either county.
The result last time clearly proved
the overwhelming sentiment in each
county, and there has been no
change in that sentiment which pre-
sents the least reason or excuse for
/ resubmission of this question.
There has hardly been sufficient
opportunity to thoroughly test the s
lew law. Conditions are greatly !
improved in every respect, but the
enforcement of the law is not as {
complete as it should be, and in 7
ONE districts a lawless element, 7
Encouraged and melted by the liquor c
are doing their utmost to !,
ring the law into disrepute. It
will take time to crushsOut such {
pirit, which is engendered by a de- .
ire for revenge, but it is lessening !,
very day.
The parties know that conditions h
re better in every way and should P
e courageous enough to uphold a
he benefit which has accrued to our
eople by what is called the local Il
ption law.
So that it becomes the duty of u
very opponent Of the sale of in se
liquor to scan carefully al
lie record of every aspirant proposed II

DIRECT VOTE FOR SENATOR.

1t is quite probable that the mex
Democratic State Convention will
be called upon to decide whether OF
not the voters shall have some di-
rect word regarding the choice OF
the party for Senator.
At first glance it would seem that
such question would resolve itself
into a conflict between the conser-
vative and radical wings Of the
party, but this is not necessarily so.
The Ohio Democrats under the lead
ership of Governor Harman rejected
the Bryan plan Of having the State
Convention express its choice, while
the Indiana Convention followed
that plan.
In Maryland, which is a conser-
vative Democratic State, and in
many other States various schemes
are followed for having the views
Of the voters as to who shall be
Senator. Even in Delaware many
conservative Democrats may be
found advocating the idea, but it is
probable that the question, if it is
injected into the next State Con-
vention, will cause a lively racket. |
To many the plan of having a
primary on the same day as the
election appears to be better than
laving the convention indorse an
lspirant, although Of course argu-
nents can be made for both schemes.
Ifthere are half a dozen aspirants
or Senator in the event of Demo
ratio success, and The Journal
links there are surely that number,
md the convention should express
tself in favor Of this or that man,
he other aspirants would naturally
lot be very much interested in the
ampaign. They would still be
good Democrats" and all that, but
hey would not so out of their way
aid the party as there would be
nothing in it'' for them. That
purse would be natural, for selfish
ess is the dominant thing in poll t
cs. 1t is the underlying note that /
overns all the acts Of politicians.
On the other hand a primary
'uld be held on the same day as
e election and the choice of the A
lrty could be expressed. The in a
rest ofall the Democratic aspirants D
0uld not flag. All would have
'pes until election day. Demo-
attic voters would have an oppor-
nifty to vote twice and could re- "a
at. How happy that would make tc
me of them who remember the old II
Us when repeaters were trumps. "
An argument in favor of the di- G
t vote IS that under the present Il

IF the political parties permit
the liquor interests to force the
question ofresubmission upon them
at the approaching election they
will be greater fools than we be-
lieve the leaders capable of rising
to. We unhesitatingly say that
it will be a mistake for any temper
izing with the liquor interests in
either Kent or Sussex counties.
and the party making the attempt,
will meet ignominious defeat. The
general conditions of the entire
territory where prohibition has been
IN force, is so much better, that we
challange any contradiction or cita-
tion Of facts to the contrary. Ii
quOr is sold illegally, in these
counties to a small extent, but the
peace and comfort of the general
public is a thousand fold more to
be preferred than under the old
saloon system, and the people of
Delaware will resent any attempt
to force men upon them, who
would vote for a resubmission ofl
the question at the present time.
Democrats may urge the nomina-
tion and even encourage such nom
inations by promises of support in
republican districts, and the same
policy may be praaticed in dem
Ocratic districts by republicans,
but at the polls the people will see
that men Of this kind are defeated,
even though a man Of opposite po-
litical opinions would have to be
elected to accomplish this purpose, +
and we believe they would be JUS i
tihed in so doing. The leaders '
have had ample warning along this
line, and it will be well for them to !
head the voice of the people. Let /
,he liquor question rest. Those a
who want liquor are getting all L
hey need now under local option ,

PARIS. June 3--Count Jacques oe Les
sens. one Of three men who have been
across the English channel in an aero
plane. today telegraphed his congratu-
lations TO Charles Stewart Rolls, the
English aviator. who yesterday made a
round trip fight over The channel.
'Eolls made a wonderful Hight" de

of him for ! had set my heart on being
the first to make the round trip without
stoppinS and feel that I would have
won the honor had the wind been more
favorable on the day I flew from San

Rolls is the first man 10 fly for an
hour and a half over the sea. and the
first man. too. to cross the channel in
q biDlane. The ease with which he &C
complished the flight is a great tribute
both 10 his skill and TO the Wright ma
chine he used.
There is nothing left now in the way
Of channel aviation and I wonder what
will be the next thing attempted. II will
probably be a flight across the North
sea from England TO Germany. Such a
feat is altogether feasible and I look TO
see its accomplishment within the pres
ent year.
