MOORE IS FORTUNATE.

IoHnRE is no legislative candidate in Sussex county
i who is more popular than John NJ c. Moore, the
Republican candidate for State Senator in the Second
district That district is made up Of Seaford and
Broad Creek hundreds, and Mr. Moore is one of its
foremost and most representative citizens In this
campaign he is particularly well situated, the Demo-
Gratis have nominated against him Samuel J. Furniss,
who is far from being popular In fact there are hun
dreds of persons in Sussex who marvel that the Demo-
Gratis made such a selection There were scores Of
men more popular whom the Democrats might have
nominated and the fact that they placed Mr. Furniss
on the ticket has been Of much qualification
so the Republicans.
Both Mr. Moore and Mr. Furniss live in Bethel and
are known personally or by reputation TO all the
voters in the district Mr. Moore's friends say un-
hesitatngly that he will win the hght as there are
many Democrats in the district who will not vote for
Mr. Furniss for varying reasons
In this campaign in the Second Senate district there
are several local issues involved that playing an
mporant part greatly to the worrment of the Demo
Gratis One is spite fence in which Robert Spicer
and his friends are interested. Another issue has to
do with terminal facilities for line gasoline boats
in which william Smith is interested Mr.. Smith, by
the way is a Democrat The Town Commissioners
/ and the County Commissioners also up and doing
/ and saying things about certain charges for wharf
age and for the landing shells the streets
and county roads Curtis Steen, constable and
James Robinson. crippled bridge tender and theii
friends also may play an important part in the cam
paign in which Mr. Furnss is interested In reality
so many things have developed since Mr.. Furnss vai
nominated that there is telling wlst plurality Mr.
Moore viii receive as result OF his own popularit.

LET sgNAToR MONAGHAN TxpLAIN.

c. TATE SENATOR THOMAS NJ MONAGHAN Demo-
- cratic candidate for Governor has embarked at
last a labored defense of his record as member
Of the Delaware Legislature, which he bases his
plea the votes Of Deawareans in his campaign for
Governor. In advertisement which he prints he
takes exception certain criticisms Of his legislative
conduct which have appeared in the editorial columns
Of THE EVENING JOURNAL It is our purpose now
to reply to and make summary disposal of his
ply.
One Of his grounds of complaint is that we COM
mened upon his opposition the establishment in this
State several of State Sanatorium for Con-
sumptives Our reply to that is that the legislative
records show that he did against that State Sana-
torium bill and that his helped kill it. When
informed by Miss Emily p Bisse, presi-
dent Of the Delaware Ant-Tuberculoss Society that,
several subsequent to the killing of the sanator
ium BILL Senator Monaghan and Representative Hol-
comb eyinced legislative interest in the antituber
cuosis movement only space freely to her
communication but appended editorial note in
which expressed pleasure that years after the
killing of the sanatorium BILL and after the starting of
the anti-tubercuosis movement Senator Monaghan and
Representative Holcomb had manifested active in
terest in it.
Another legislative act which Senator Monaghan
seeks to explain away his vote against the Anti
Cigarette bills His defense is that such bills always
have been regarded strike" bills. We wonder how
such a characterization that will strike the Del
who supported those bills years when
MT. Monaghan voted against lnemf a 'Slrlke Dill IS
one introduced not in good faith but for money y-mak-
ing purposes We think that the standing of the Della
ware who have appeared from time to time in
support bills should have protected them from
Mr.. Monaghan's imputation that they backing
strike" legislation We respectfully call upon him to
produce his proofs that such the case.
Senator Monaghan calls to public attention the
admitted fact that we criticized him for having been
absent from the Legislature when the final vote
was taken on the Voters Assistant law. That he
absent he admits His explanation is that his absence
by the death Of his mother. When he COM
municated that fact to Immediately following the
publication the criticism. promptly accepted his
explanation apoogized for having recalled to his mind
deep personal bereavement and frankly admitted that
under the circumstances, the criticism unfair We
renew that apology and admission now, and shall not
hesitate to do at any time and place, though
may realize that he is trying to make political cap
ital out of such a regrettabe incident.
Now let him be frank and produce his proofs that

Delaware's best women strike" bill, and also
let him explain why he voted against the State Sana-
orum bill and let years eapse before he recognized
the Importance of the fight against the White Plague

MONAGHAN, VETERINARIANS, DRUGGISTS AND ILL

Local OPTION he could vote keep the rushthegrow
law on our statute books he could vote against the
bill to prevent the grain diseries in Delaware doing
could vote against other legislation not desired by the
liquor interests of the most surprising things in
connection with his legislative record is his vote against
bill that authorized druggists to sell Intoxicating
liquors, upon prescription of veterinarians, for the
treatment of diseases among domestic animals.

A LII Delaware Republicans should rally to the
support of George II. Hall. Of Sussex county,
Republican candidate for Representative in Congress
He stands unfalteringy for protective tariff and
many other great political principles which conserve
the interests of the people There is valid reason
why any man who calls himself a Republican who
believes in Republican principles and policies should
refuse for Mr. Hall and do everything possible
bring about his election. That is especially true
when. under the conditions they exist in Delaware
to-day. the alternative is the election Of Franklin
Brockson Free Trade Democrat, whose candidacy
a a menace to Delaware industries and wage-earners
There is no middle-ground The fight is between Mr..
Hail. who stands for protective tariff and prosperity
and Mr.. Brockson, who stands for Free Trade and
hard times
In this contest the balance OF power is held by the
National Progressives They nominated DR.. Hiram r.
Burton for Congressman, hoping that his candidacy
would result in developments which would defeat
MIR. Brockson and strengthen the Republican State
ticket. Dr. Burton has resigned, with the campaign
within five days Of its close and with his already
printed on the official ballot His resignation

question which presents itself is what the Nation

Progressiyces would be forced to vote for Drexlei
and that the Sucker" State ticket also would catch
many National Progressive votes We doubt, however
that the National Progressive voters will permit

Editorial Opinion
WANTS LAKE DRIVE.

From the Smyrna Times.
Few towns can boast of prettier
body of water than Smyrna and yet
how little we appreciate Lake Como
here at home Visitors express de-
light when they see it and wonder
that more attention is not paid to
beautifying the surroundings. with
better walks and driveways. Some
time ago the suggestion was made
looking forward to the inauguration
of movement toward opening a
Lake Drive" from Main street around
the town side of the pond to the public
road crossing the head of Lake Como
at Rees' branch. Such a drive could
he made one OF the delightful and
picturesque portions of not only the
lake but the town OF Smyrna. Now
that automobiles have become so
numerous a Lake Drive would add
much to the pleasure of the sport and
at the same time. open a section
that. from an aesthetic point of view,
would be surpassed by few towns in
the State. No doubt all good citizens
would be interested in seeing road
of this kind opened and even property
owners having lots adjacent to the
lake might be induced to aid the
movement toward a Smyrna beauti-
full. The plan suggested is a good
one and if we would rightly appreci-
ate the little body Of water In our
midst, we need to keep intact the
rugged scenery and open a drive that
all can enjoy ana take pride in.

DEMOCRATS AND CAMPAIGN FUNDS.

~ EMOCRATS are so loud in their denunciation of
- the Republican party for the of money for
campaign purposes that we take pleasure in laying
before the public that in this present campaign the
Democratic National Committee has received and
handled money than the Republican National
Committee
Dispatches from Washington show that contri-
buttons amounting 10 $15365592 were received at the
Republican national headquarters last week. according
to supplemental report filed yesterday with the clerk
Of the House by George r. Sheldon, treasurer Of the
Republican National Committee. This report in
compliance with the statute requiring supplemental
reports every six days after the first report The
report showed that the contributions were received
between October goth and October 25h. These latest
contributions brought the grand total Of Republican
war funds up to S7446sS62.
During the last six days the Democratic National
Committee received contributions amounting to $780,
6SS72 and borrowed $4,000, according to supple
mental report filed today behalf of the Democratic
National Committee with the clerk Of the House Of
Representatives During this period the total expendi
lures amounted to S2654a52O. The Democratic con-
trihutions to date amount to SS15O52
It will be seen by those official figures that the
Democratic campaign fund is sgos64 larger than the
Republican fund

WEBsTER AND TAFT.

THE memory of Daniel Webster is revered by all
Americans In his day and generation he was
regarded one Of the wisest of political leaders and
has left the history of nation the impress of
his great wisdom and eoquence We have doubt
that if Daniel Webster living today he would
be in the forefront of the fight President Taft That
assumption is based upon speech which Mr.. Webster
delivered in the United States Senate in 1888 in which
he said
There are persons who constantly clamor Ihey com
plain of oppression, speculation and perncious infu-
ence Of accumulated wealth. They cry out loudly
against all banks and corporations and all means by
which small capitalists become united in order to pro-
duce important and beneficial results. They carry on
mad hostility against all established Institutions They
would choke the foundation of industry and dry all
streams In country of unbounded liberty, they
clamor against oppression. In country OF perfect
equality they would heaven and earth against
privilege and monopoly. In country where property
evenly divided than anywhere else, they rend
the air, shouting agraran doctrines In country
where wages of labor high beyond parallel, they
would teach the laborer that he is but an oppressed
slave
Read those words, not once twice, but many
times. Let them sink deeply into your mind and un-
derstanding and then think how well they apply to
the situation in this year of clamor A. d. 1912
