The Rev. J. McLain Brown, pastor of First NJ

by which the indebtedness outstanding against
the church, which is said to be about $780, can be
wiped out in about three years without working
any hardship on any one member Of the church.
His idea is to purchase about 800 or 400 banks.

one to each member who viii receive it. One cent
each day of the week is the amount he is asking
to be deposited in the little bank, and each week
collector will visit the different home and gather
up the weeks deposit. The collector is the only
one possessed with key. Some large banks win
be placed in the store of the city in which to make

raise like amount.

sides in Philadelphia, where he is at the head of

the lots brought as high as S710, which is one of
the highest prices ever obtained. The tract of
land was that Of the heirs of the late John R. Nc
Fee, at one time leading lawyer of this town,
and father Of Charles McFee, also member of

at meeting held in Odd Fellows Hall Tuesday

town. His proposition was that the residents here

each.

SWAIN'S HEARING.
Newall Ball Tells of Buying Votes.

Last Friday theJudiciaryCommi Of
the United States Senate heard the
: charges made by Willard Salisbury
against the confirmation of Cornelius
P. Swain, of Bridgeville, Del. as United
States Marshal, for Delaware, at which
forty or more persons appeared either
by summons, or voluntarily.
I Mr.. Salisbury stated that it was his
purpose to show to the committee that
Cornelius P Swain was vote buyer,
and therefore was not a proper person
to have the office of United States Mar
shal. The first witness he called was
ex-senator J. Frank Alice, who was a
very unwilling witness, who testified
that he with DR.. c. R. Layton, gave
Swain a package containing $4,000 on
the Saturday before the general election
of 1904, for use in the campaign, and
that there was nothing said as to its
being used for the purpose of buying
votes; further than that he gave but
little testimony. Ex-Judge Hastings,
who had charge of Mr.. Swain defence,
stated that he admitted that Mr.. Swain
brought 5000 down as stated by Mr..
Alice, but that it was for the legitimate
expense of the campaign, which would
be shown later.
Newall Ball was next called, and he
testified as very willing witness that
Swain had brought the money down to |
Bridgeville, and that in company with !
himself and John Green, they had taken /
it to the home of John Dimes, where |
the money in $40 gold pieces was poured |
out on the table and counted. He said |
that he was made the treasurer to dis
burse the money, and that he took it to
Philadelphia where he had it changed
up in paper money of ones, twos and
five dollars, so as to have it in more
workable shape. He opened headquar-
ters in stable, where he kept a set of
books, which showed the amount paid.
to whom paid, and by whom bargained
for; all of which according to Mr. Ball
was for the payment of votes bought.
He stated that he was now a man with
out party; the Republicans having 4
turned him down, and the Democrats as s
yet not affiliating him with themselves. i
There were many character witnesses
called on both sides, and much conflict =
ing opinion disclosed. Mr.. Swain was e
shown to have good reputation in his I
district, and from all points of the State Il
there were aftidavits which testified to n
lis good character; and many from c
prominent Democrats of his own home e
we're in the lot u
The hearing was not completed on
friday, because Mr.. Swain had bad il
all that morning while descending a h
tairway, and was unable to appear be-
ore the committee for examination. a
The committee on Tuesday was advised
hat President Taft had decided to with IL
RAW the name of Mr.. Swain, and the t.
Ommittee refused to hear any more NJ
on either side. Mr. Swain,
owever, was allowed to file an affidavit.

THAT the campaign for 1912 will
open early there is no question,
and for that reason it is necessary
that the majority party in Delaware
shall formulate its plans we'll, and
squarely place their platform before
the people, and should they be again
entrusted with the responsibility oi
legislation, faithfully carry out the
pledges of their platform. The
nominees will be a problem
for both State and county tickets,
but at this time, it is absolutely
necessary that only those of probity,
of character and of stirling Repub-
licanism shall be placed as stand
ard bearers. Above all, the candi-
date must be those who can and
will poll the full strength of the
party. 1t is no time for expert
ments, or toadying to special in
terests, or factionalism. The best
that can be had is the demand of
the party. Along the line of rota-
tion in the gubernatorial nomina-
tion, the Sentinel of last week has
this to say
The Republican party of Delaware
must be cOgnizant of the necessity of
soon formulating plans for the coming
election. 1t seems, so far as we can find
from public opinion, that the nomination
for Governor is conceded to Kent county,
of the formal adoption of the
rule of rotation. While this rule is not
it undoubtedly has considera-
Dle force and it seems tC be up to Kent
county to produce a properly equipped
.andidate for the place. The party
must not lose sight of the Importance =

ssue, we are not selecting candidates .
or any Office, but we do desire our stan {
ard bearer for Delaware should be a
ian who commands the respect of Del !
wares franchise. :
Milford chronicle., 1912-02-16

THE results of the effort of Viii
lard Salisbury to prevent the con
frmstion of Cornelius P. Swain as
United States Marshall has proved
to be eficacious and it has served
the purpose of uncovering the bit
ternesss of former office holders
against the Republican, Party as
now organized in Delaware. We
were sorry to see the impression
made on the general public that
the normal standard of all Della
wareans is very low, so far as po-
litical standards are recognized.
We know that a great majority of
the people in the State of Delaware
are not only opposed to corrupt
practices in politics, but that they
will positively not tolerate vote buy
ing at primary or general elections.
The files of the CHRONICLE show
that warnings have been given,
and that the better class of people
would not countenance nominees
made under such conditions. The
admissions of Newall Ball show
that the men who made the fight to
win Delaware from the rule of
democracy, fguratively speaking,
g fought the devil with his own
FIRE, and beat them at their own
game. War and revolution pre-
ceed most reforms of whatsoever
and the people pf Della.
ware have seen the dragon of polit-
ical debauchery as created by the
Democrats Of thirty-years ago,
beaten at its own game but now
there seems to be a general crys-
talization of public sentiment a.
gainst the practices of the past. /
We have reason to believe that for
more than 6fty-years. not in Della
ware alone, but in all states of this
lnion, and in all countries where !
popular elections are held, the
of influencing the voter by
,ther than argumentive means, has
'een common to all governments,
'ut this is no reason why it should
'e continued as regular custom.
