UNDER Republican administra
tion the whole OF the United States
is enjoying wonderful business pros.
perity, and the greatest trouble
seems to be to get men to do the
work and fill the positions necessary
to conduct this great volume Of
business all over this country. Ii
is fact, that the business world is
too busy to be alarmed about po-
litical affairs, and it is this alone
that is to be feared. When the
country is enjoying greatest pros
perity, political agitators find their
greatest opportunity. By voting
the Republican ticket in November
the people Of Delaware will assure
themselves of the present prosperous
conditions.
Milford chronicle., 1912-10-04

And beside all this, the State
under Republican rule, has increas-
ed its assets, improved its real
estate and has purchased during
the past four years more than
S100,0 900 per value, in gilt edge
bonds to be held against the public
debt created by the Democrats.
Such is the alleged "extrava-
gance" of Republican administra-
tions. Creditable, is it not3 And
remember, every statement made
above is undisputably true.
The suggestion is made that the
Democratic State Committee made
a comparison between the cost OF
State Governmentnow and 30 years
ago, as it would make a good cam
paign document. The Committee
will not act on the suggestion,
however Such a comparison would
indeed make a most adnirablecam-

can.

election, as the candidates selected
are among the very best Of our citi-
zenship There is and always will
be differences OF opinion as to the
selection of men for public office,

rule under honorable and fair COM
petition for preferment. Those
named for the county are above re-

life, and there is no reason why they
should not be elected in November.

Iowa, assistant secretary of agricul-
ture. for his connection with the Lake
Matamusket drainage project, in North
Carolina, forms part Of the report OF
the house committee OIL expenditures
in the department of agriculture on the
so-called Everglades investigation.
Representative Moss Of Indiana.
chairman Of the committee, has not
made public the text Of his report. but
it Is known that he scores Professor
Hays. a high official Of the division.
for having taken 20 per cent option
on the stock of a company which was
to be organized to complete this drain
age project, which was approved by the
drainage engineers Of the department.
In his testimony before the committee.
Professor Hays explained that he was
more interested In the proper placing
Of people on the land in pursuance to
some Of his own plans for development,
and that. while he took an option on
! a. good portion of the stock, the latter
was merely subordinate to the main
idea OF proper developments.
| He went into the scheme himself
principally that he might secure the
CO. operation Of Leigh Hunt, CAPT
talist, who had been interested IN

NATIONAL CONVENTION OF 8.
Pepuiist Gathering at St. Louis slini,
Attended.

st. Louis. Aug. 14.-Eight delegates
responded to the call on the opening
Of the populist national convention
here. True, they all carried numerous
proxies. also considerable enthusiasm
1t did not take the dauntless eight
long to organize. 8. w. Williams Of
yircennes, Ind, was elected temporary
and permanent chairman At the same
time. Joseph A. Parker Of Parma, Mo-.
was elected secretary. The other dele
gates were elected to chairmanships az
the convention got under way. -
When the popullsts met here four
years ago a large theater was needed
to accommodate the delegates. A 2 by
4 room in a small hotel IL large enough
for the present gathering.
The pops" do not expect to name a
national ticket this time. but they are
greatly interested in the adoption Of q
platform. The money plank II the
most important, but there Is q little
division Of opinion among the six or
the subject. They want congress to Is
sue all money and plenty of 1t.
For the first time the populists vii
incorporate q plank for woman suf-
frage in their platform. They have al
ways favored equal suffrage, but new
er formally adopted suffrage plank
The six are agreed 1t should go in thu
| platform.
One delegate from Nebraska favor'
the Endorsement Of Woodrow Wilson
and another from Kansas wants to in
dorse Colonel Roosevelt. The othel
four ara noncommittal. but 1t is prob
able that neither OF the presidential
| candidates named will be Endorsed.
| James F. Ferriss, Joliet, ILL.,, chair
man of the national committee. said:
"The new progressive party at its re
cent convention In Chicago adopted
eighteen OF our planks. the democrat
six and the republicans four. OF tn
thirty-fo planks in our last plat
form all but six have been appropri
ated by other parties"
The delegates were busy on the plat
form last night.

proposition came to nothing. - the
company was not formed, ana No had
forgotten all about It until the invssti-
cation was started in the house.
Representative Sloan OF Nebreska,
the leading republican on the commit
tee, will submit a minority report. IN
which he will uphold Professor HAYS
to the fullest EXTENT. He VIII snow
that the assistant secretary acted from
no wrongful intent, but was simply
actuated by desire to see the LAND
developed properly and that the proper
kind OF people were placed on 1t by
HIS ideas Of colonization.
Professor Hays, when seen. declined !,
to make any statement In advance Q.
the publication Of the report. Wnen
have seen the text Of the report, may
have something to say" said Professor
Hays.
