POLITICAL "HONORs.Y

~ OWEVER much there may be differences OF
\ u opinion regarding the methods alleged to
have been employed at the recent election .here
is one common ground on which Republicans and
Democrats can stand-that is the upbuilding of the
material interests of Delaware, one of which is
the subject of good roads
If those folk who have been devoting so much
energy to crying about the evils of Delaware poll
tics should drop politics for awhile and devote
their time TO securing legislation for the best in
terests of the state they would have a worthy sub
ject to engage their attention. Some time ago
we said there was entirely TOO much politics in
Delaware and we more convinced Of the truth
of that statement than ever.
OF what benefit to the average citizen,
who desires to see Delaware progressive State
is this constant clamor started by GER
tain Democrats who evidently intend to continue
il? What good comes from this persistent stirring
up OF partisan feeling? In most states after the
election is over partisan politics is dropped and
the people turn their attention to other matters
In most states in these days, partisan lines are
very lightly drawn, but here we have, chiefly on
the part Of a Democratic newspaper of this city,
a constant nagging and reteration of charges of
bribery and corruption, designed TO stir up parti-
san feeling and clamor, which reduced TO its solid
substance means commotion over whether This
man or that man is to have a political Office. liow
ridiculous it all seems But some one replies Do
you seek to palliate corruption and a disgracetul
condition? Not by any means. We say that 7
there have been violations of the law, if there
have been instances OF corruption let them be FER
reted out and the offenders punished Attorney
General Gray has been making an investigation,
but any one familiar with the matter knows now
hard il is amid the smoke TO find the fire.
One result Of this situation as we see it, is
that the young men OF the State will be led to be-
lieve that any participation in politics means the
soiling OF their own hands with pitch. Certainly
the field is not inviting for young men who might
desire TO take part in political affairs They will
conclude that the "honors" of politics are not
worth while, not worth striving for, when they
are contaminated by such accusations as have
been heard since the recent election

POLITICAL ALTERNATE.

MAYHEM certain Democrats of this city angered

return o. Senator dupont, decided to have the old
stories Of alleged bribery stirred up in order TO
place Colonel dupont before the country as hav-
ing purchased the election, they did npt think
there would be a come back"
1t was entirely unnatural to suppose, however,
that the Republican State Committee would rest
under the charges and nsinuations and perhaps
the Democrats who agtated the matter now
getting more than they bargained for. The
suit of the abors of the Republican State Com
mttee in investigating the recent election has been
set forth, and in The Journal yesterday there was
published a series of articles giving the opinions
of prominent Republicans in many parts OF the
State on the manner in which the campaign
carried on by the Democrats. These opinions and
the evidence gathered are as good testimony as
that furnished by the Democrats.
To the credit of some of the outside newspapers
Il may be said that they have published consider
able OF the information gathered by the State
Committee. This information is to the effect that
in many districts the Republicans believed that the
Democrats used money and whiskey for the our
pose OF influencing voters and the further opinion
is that the Democrats raised the cry of fraud for
the purpose Of covering their own tracks
We thus have in the summary Democrats max
ing charges and Republicans making counter
charges. To an unbiased mind the impression will
be made that if one half of these rumors and re-
ports and suspicious are correct, there were prac-
fices which bring credit to the State, although
we presume that if the elections in many other
communities were put under the search light,
matter could be dug up similar TO that which has
been presented about Delaware.
Some one may ask what is TO be the net result
ol all this commoton, Of the charges and counter
charge. As we have said before the only thing

Editorial Opinion
TIloughts of the Senson.

New York Evening Sun.
Perhaps football was not quite as
popular this autumn as in some sea-
sons that we can all remember; per-
haps election fell short Of some in
teresting campaigns that come TO
memory; possibly the present Season
lacks stirring book to set every
body talking; but in one attendant
feature the times are all that they
should be: there is no falling OFF
in Christmas doings. All else may
have its ups and downs; Christmas, at
least, is a permanency.
The subway has just reported the
largest days receipts, excepting only
the big day of the Hudson-Fulton
celebration, in its history, all OF ac-
count Of Christmas activities. The
hotels, the shops, are fairly overflow
ing, With the hurry and hustle that
mark the time apart The express
strikers of the other day are back at
work, probably because the compell-
ing demand of the present festive
hour had to be obeyed. Wars and
stocks and all such things are fallen
into the dim background. Christmas
looms up as always, the one fact, cons
slderation, juncture, tendency. insti-
tuition and purpose of the moment.
It is hard to realize that the Christ
mastide is an institution at all, in our
sense, rather than regular opera

the Republicans and TO prove that the election vas
purchased had failed and that the skirts Of rhe
Democrats are by no means clear. We realize the
fact that the charges that one party used money,
met by counter charges that the other did the
same thing, does not relieve either party Of the
diseredit which comes of violation Of the election
laws if there has been such a violation.
The respectable citizen desires TO see an election
free from contamination and let us hope that one
result of the agitation which has been going on
for some time will at least arouse the people to so
great an extent that our future elections shall be
absolutely free from serious talk about bribery and
corruption, and that Delaware will not be held
up as "pague spot"

If there we're a publicity law the opponents OF the
Republicans would declare that any statement the

So far as The Journal is concerned we see no

would be advisable to have one.
The publicity law in New York has resulted
in the publication of statements OF FUNDS cohul-
buted for campaign purposes. Other states nave
such a law For example in Massachusetts the
Democratic governor-elect admitted that he hao
contributed $4,000 to the campaign fund. Inc
6oures Of New York show that very large amounts
were spent by both parties in the big counties
We venture the assertion that the Republican
fund during the last election in Delaware was not
nearly so large in our counties as was either the
Democratic oil the Republican fund in many OF he
counties of New York State.
According TO the statements of those in charge
Of the Republican campaign IN Delaware tney
