To the readers Of The Sunday Star
in particular, and TO the people of
Delaware in generaI-With his work
on this issue of The Star, which is
limited to the penning Of this an
nouncement the undersigned sewers
oil connection witt the paper and will
contribute no more to its columns, nor
exercise any control in its manage
ment or influence over It's destinies. It
IS naturally somewhat a source Of
regret to the founder Of The STAR and
for more than thirty years its sole
editor and responsible head, that he
finds it desirable to relinquish the con-
genial labor in which for many years
he found 80 much pleasure, and which
invariably brought him reasonable
profit, and, he is vain enough to be-
lieve, fair share of credit. This
action is partly and indirectly due to
business considerations which are en-
tlrely satisfactory to the retiring
editor, and partly and directly to con-
sideratiOns Of an ethical nature, which
were not satisfactory, but which need
not be further referred to here
He cannot, however, let this oc-
casion pass without expressing his
deep sense Of obligation for the en-
couragement he has always received
from the community in his efforts to
give the people a clean, fair and fear
less newspaper. He has sought to
make The star. a force for good thru
out the State, and has steadily striven
to win for it the respect and confidence
Of its readers. And while 1t is not for
him to say how far he has succeeded
In this effort, it is, nevertheless, with
pardonable pride that he recalls the
many evidences that have come to him
of the goodwill of the people and OF
their esteem and confidence
To his friends and patrons he ex-
tends his sincere thanks for their
generous and unwavering support,
which has made possible whatever OF

Frank whelen, who died in Philadelphia this week,
was one Of the best known newspaper men in the
state of Delaware When he in his prime, he was
one Of it's most prolific writers, particularly upon
local political and legislative subjects. His most
cent work was editor of the Dover Republican In
his time he edited several Delaware weekles and
ributed largely TO the columns Of dailies in viii
mington and other cities In those days there

best wishes for their prosperity and
happiness; and to all the newspaper
men of Delaware. and particularly to
those of the local press, he sends
words of professional farewell and
personal goodwill.
So, here he resigns the quill OF eonten-
tion,
And turns down the chalice OF verbal
acidity;
No longer 20 deal in wordy dissension,
On pester wrong-doers with virtuous
avidity.
He'll sit back in silence and view life
serenely,
Provided, of course, he can hold out
at that;
But want of expression will worry him
keenly,
And soon he may venture again in
the chat.

A DOUBT DISPELLED.
From the Dover State Sentinel.

From the Dover state Sentlhel.
Whatever of doubt existed afore-
time, there is no doubt about 1t now.
The President OF the United States
has no respect for or sympathy with
the veterans Of the Civil War-the
G. A. r.
Summary dismissal Of veteran
soldiers from the Washington Post
office, the lame response he made at
Gettysburg, and his refusal to attend
the G. A. r. memorial service at Ar
lington. is convincing evidence of his
lack of sympathy with the men who
served the Nation in the hour OF its
greatest peril.
That may indicate a truly political
democratic spirit. It is scarcely we
dare say It, true American spirit.
We care not what a mans political
opinions may be-that is, what he
believes about economic theories, or
administrative principles-when he
assumes the duty of chief magistrate
of a great Nation, whether he knows
it-acknowledges it-or not, he be-
comes amenable to an unwritten law
that commands honor and respect not
only to It's veteran defenders, but to
the settled customs of the people over

linquishing the post Of editor Of The
Star, which he has hlled with such
marked success since he founded this
newspaper, will be received with re-

interest and influence. That he has
seen fit to retire from editorial work,

means the loss to The Star of one
Of its strongest features, but fortu-

the sales were small, but by strict
attention to business, and straight
