MORGAN MAY Aid
CHINESE REBELS

WASHINGTON, ID. Especial.
Considerable interest Is manifest
ed here in reports from China
that efforts will be made to Sc
cure loans from foreign nations
by both the Chinese monarchy
and the new republican party i'm
China.
Should the throne secure
money from other nations it Is
evident that the bankers advance
ing such money would have the
support of their respective gov
ernments. On the other hand a
report that Morgan may lend aid
to the republicans might mean
that the United States would be
equally placed i'm position of
sympathy with the republican
government.
That both parties I'm China are
badly i'm need OF funds, and that
the party first securing financial
aid will likely be able 60 end the
strife, is acknowledged.

attsir sutiean candidates fgr
p office IN this county thar they have won s"ch
ahanosome victory ia Tie face Of such adverse political
conditions. Their success shaNs Tie taluo Of two hinss
aspoidoa assets ~ a close campaign. One t'a glowing
record of past acacqcuen i concerning lae interests
o. tae taxpayers hy Intelligent, busuosshe ANA yet
progressive adanisraou OF county affairs The other
is the nomination Of tcAet composed Of men whose
character cannot be assaulted successfully BY the oppo
sition.
The official records show that Noe Republicans have
given taxpayers Of this county splendid admin
stradon n recent years The county Offices have hoen
made only seli-suppoftng btt actually source OF
profit while the Levy Court has exercised such wisdom
in SIS work and expenditures that Democratic critics
practically have been silcnced
1T goes without saying that tho Republican county
officials elected Tuesday viii live up 10 the past
reputation their party for giving New Castle coun-
taxpayers full value for all the taxes they pay into
the county treasury. No doubt they will endeayor to
make that record better than & ever has been We sim
cerely hope they will do
II Is well for the taxpayers that Republican major
ICY has been elected in the Levy Court That is partc-
ularly true when the Salisbury Democratic machine
far forget itself to nominate and the voters so
far forget themselves elect like William "A.
Scott as commissioner from the Seventh district Il
would have been public misfortune under such cir
cumstances for the Democrats TO have had majority
in that body with Mr. Scott holding the balance Of
power
The four hepubican membeis-elcct aiieau9 are 'oM-
mted to a busncss-ike administration OF our county
affairs Charles w Gooding Democratic member-elect
from the Second district and Martin smith Demo-
cratic member-oloct from the Fifth district have de-
clared themseys In favor Of such an administration
Those certainly should be able TO hold the st
uation in check it that there is no backward
drift toward conditions which existed in the old Lynn
White Levy Court of which Mr. Scott was so unorun-
as to be a member
II Commissioners Gooding and Smith show by their
official that they have the interests Of the taxpayers
at heart if they demonstrate clearly that they will
stand shoulder TO shoulder with the Republican COM
missoners the protection Of the county treasury
they viii receive from the taxpaying public full credit
for what they may do in that behalf. In short both
these Democrats have splendid opportunity to
show that although in the minority politically, they be-
long to that majority which holds TO thcheory that the
countys business the private business Of every tax
payer that should be conducted along sound BUSH
lines.

A RFPUBLICAN VICTORY.

r OR who profess to have won a great victory on
last Tuesday the Democrats In Delaware are the
most dsconsolatc OF vctors this State ever has
known. That is because they lost the things they

loss Of the Of control Of the State Senate
took from them all the fruits of what otherwise would
have been a great victory They are tied hand-and-
foot for the next four years through the election Of
Charles r. Miller as Governor They cannot put
the statute books any partisan legislation, make
considerable number of partison appointments or do
any Of the many partisan things they would like 30 do
to strengthen their political position All they will be
able to do will be TO mark time until the Republicans
compromise and compose their differences and. pre-
senting once more united front rout the Democrats
all along line.
Il will be tiresome business for most of the Demo-
Gratis to mark time. but that is what they
a Republican Governor between them and the things
they most desire they will be helpless. We have no
doubt that could the Democrats in Delaware retain
their control of the House. they would be perfectly
willing to trade everything else they won In the Tues
day election with the Republicans for the Governor
and the State Senate It also may be said that the
Republicans would consent to make such trade.
Therefore. as things stand. the result in Delaware,
apart from the national end Of the ticket, which
