ToHN S. HAMILTON Democrat ready letter writer
j and spurner OF fore-doomed Democratic mayoraly
nominations denies that the Hughes
Democratic city ticket was made in Honolulu by Sen
Salisbury He would like TO have the public un-
derstand that II made in Wilmington by Mr. Ham
on We have received a letter from him which, read
ing between the lines. conveys that information. We
take pleasure in publishing IT, not for public edhca-
ton as a laughter producing political curiosity.
Mr. Hamilton says that Senator Salisbury. the Demo-
cratic boss who has been In Honolulu and who is
his way TO Japan and China. had nothing whatever
20 do with making up the city ticket, but that he Mr.
Hamilton. had much TO do with il. Finei Such
thought. properly led upon Ego brand milk, should
bring much comfort TO the brain that gave It birth,
though it will receive ready acceptance by
Wilmington voters The letter. made up largely Of The
pronouns II" and 'we," is follows:
To The Editor OF THE EVENING. JOURNAL;
sir-Knowing you as do I am sure you would not
do an act Of injustice, oven TO political opponent in
the heat of campaign. J. therefore, write TO assure
that the dispatch from Honolulu publishtd in THE
EVENING JOURNAL today, as far as Il refers to the
Democratic municipal ticket is fabrication from be-
ginning to end.
The Democratic ticket now before the people Of Will
mngton for their suifrages was made in Wilmington to
my knowledge. consulted about It and
probably had as much TO do with the form and sub
OF the ticket any other except II be the
candidates themselves can assure you that Senator
salisbury had nothing whatever TO do with the ticket
and there consideration in the making of the
ticket other than the quality OF the candidates and
natural desire to make better ticket than that of the
Republicans
Having had something to do with the making of the
ticket. while have nothing against Senator salisbury
feel that who made the ticket should credited
with all the honor which is coming TO us.
respectfully ask you, Mr.. Editor to make this de-
nia as prominent as you made the dispatch, as sure
proud OF that ticket and believe IL is going to be
elected Respectfully yours
w,,u,,,.,o, u.r 90 ,o,z j. S. HAMILTON.
II such thoughts as are contained in the above let
ter the cookies Of Mr. Hamiltons heart comfort
his troubled soul and tickle his vanity It from
to shatter his pleasant deluslon. Our advice to
dream on and to cherish the thought that Dr.
J. Harvey spruance Henry r. Isaacs. Frank H..
Hughes the other Democratoc candidates are in the
field not by the grace Of Senator Saulsbury not by
the grace OF the Democratic electorate. but by the
grace Of John S. Hamilton, or. he puts t. eve who
made the ticket" II would be exceedingly cruel
man. indeed, who would awaken Mr. Hamilton from
such dream that interrupt for instant
the steady flow of such delightful thoughts.
Meanwhile, however. the great Of Wilmington
voters will cling tenaciousy to the opinion that the
Democratic city ticket made in Honolulu by
tor Salisbury. the absentee Democratic boss who prior
to his departure made no announcement that he had
placed upon the shoulders Of Mr. Hamilton the mantle
OF political power or to him the ticket
making prerogative To read MT Hamon's letter. on,
IS lead think that Senator Salisbury not only drapet
him in the mantle Of political potency conferred upor
him the ticketmaking power. but also gave to him
power Of attorney for full and unrestricted IN,
city campaign. And yet, who knows Senator
Salisbury will think that he did of those things
that Hamilton is exercising any vcarious functions
for the Democratic boss
There is no temperamental physical reason VIII,
Senator Salisbury should not make in Honolulu th
Democratic ticket for the city OF Wilmington. II is hi
uniform practice to make such tickets He in Homo
lulu when this made He had at comman,
there the facilities of the Commercial Pacific Cab
Company and those of the Marconi Wireless Tee
graph Company to enable him to exercise his bossl,
prerogatves at long range For the sake OF illustra
ton let suppose that May II last just prior Il
