RrwAnD FOR A WORTHY NAN.

THE selection by the Republican majority of VIII
liam d. Stoops OF this city to be secretary of
the state Senate was deserved recognition Of the
valuable work done by the National Progressive party
in this behalf of the Republican State ticket
Mr.. stoops was one Of the leading and most active
men in that movement No one man did more
than he perhaps, to prevent the Sucker" Progress
sves from carrying out their conspiracy turn the
State government over to the Democratic machine
Apart from his political work however, Mr. Stoops
had other qualities which fitted him eminently for
and have doubt that before the ends he
will be recognized, by Republicans and Democrats
alike as one Of secretaries the Senate ever
has had, aud it has had in the past some splendid
ones
It is recognized by everyone that had it not been
for the wisdom OF the National Progressive Republi-
in Delaware the Republican party would have lost
practically everything that It gained in the November
election There would have been no Republican Gov
ernor State Senate. IL also is conceded that New
Castle county would have made such a magnificent
Republican showing if the National Progressives had
not swung to the support Of the county ticket with
vgor and intelligence that simply the ground from
beneath the Sucker Progressves and prevented them
carrying out their traitorous projects. The National
Progressive organization. which was headed by such
men as William p White and William d. stoops went
into the campaign representing Roosevelt sentiment
national issues and Republican sentiment on State
issues and that was a most potent combination when
pitted against the Sucker Progressives. who repre-
sented, in a revengeful sense Roosevelt sentiment Oh
national issues and Democratic machine sentiment or
State issues. The election returns showed with what
shrewd judgment the friends Of Colonel Roosevelt in
this State took the measure OF the rival groups Of
Progressyes.

sion that with the end of his service
as Secretary OF State his public ca

appointment as delegate from the
United States to the international
monetary congress as In the line of
professional service. since there were
many legal questions to be considered
by the tribunal
Mr. Evarts was welcomed to the
United States Senate by his fellow
members, and it was expected that
his great reputation for intellectual
power and his mastery gift for ex-

as conspicuous and valuable a mem

His cousin, Senator George r. Hoar,

NIGHT SESSIONS AND WORK.

n EMOCRATS have made such loud professions OF
- their desire TO have the Legislature finish it's
work within the time fixed by the constitution that
is eminently proper thai the Republicans put to
the sincerity Of those professions. The Republican
Representatives have decided urge that Legislative
be held Monday nights and that day ses-
sions be held Tuesdays, Wednesday Thursdays and
Fridays In addition, Il proposed that the members
shall remain in Dover at night, instead Of hurrying
away to their homes. and that committee meetings
shall be held Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday
nights. It is conended that if such plan be followed
1t will be possible for the Legislature adjourn sine
die not later than March 15.
When the Republicans have laid that plan before
their Democratic associates in the House the people
Of Delaware viii be IN position to see whether the
Democrats really desire to remain in Dover at night
and work, or whether their professions are made
merely for political effect
There is no doubt that II the members would re-
main in Dover and work night the session would be
shortened materially and the public would benefit The
trouble the past has been that when they remained

Theologians give us this dehPition
of salvation:
'"rhe redemption Of man from the
bondage of sin and liability to eternal
death. and the comforting on him Of
everlasting happiness"
The liability to eternal death OF the
Democratic party in old Delaware, the

cerned about and now strive to i'm
press upon our Assemblymen and
their constituents.

candidates and has suggested no par
ty-wreckng tactics. We have plead
ed the cause of Senator Kenney. the

ty and then another, he has always
stood pat and voted straight as a

He has brought warning elements
together when all others failed ln-
deed he has, from a mass OF wreck
age, SAVED the Democratic party i'm
Kent and Sussex by a bare-handed
struggle
He can do so again.
NOW what?
/ TWO leading Democratic newspapers
of this State, representing two ele-
ments i'm the Democratic party, have
declared war against each other.
II is war to the knife.
If anybody doubts this. let him rea'
the editorial of The Index and ther
read the editorial page of The Della
warean.
Each of these newspapers and the
elements backing it is anxious tC

Suppose either succeeds?

T is useless to spend hundreds of thousands Of dol

the construction Of good road and failing to make a

county stretch be built before any other road

What the county and the state really need is the
constipation of the dupont Boulevard as great trunk

that trunk line good roads might radate into all the
surrounding country. It is unfortunate that short
