In his speech yesterday at Indian
apolis President Wilson used some
strong language about the opposition
which his ship purchase bill is en-
countering in the United States
Senate. He spoke of a minority there
obstructing and defying the will of
tho nation. In using that phrase the
President confused the nation with
the Executive. l. is his will that is
behind the ship purchase measure.
The government ownership project
which he has fathered is entirely un-
familiar to the nation. II has never
had the approval of even the minority
party which in 1912 elected him
President.
Mr.. Wilson says truly that the ship
purchase bill is an emergency pro-
ject It was drawn to meet a condi-
ton which threatened to materialize
five months ago when the European
war broke ont. It was feared for a
time that allied control of the seas
might be seriously contested by the
German navy, that there would be an
embargo on British and French as
we'll as on German shipping, and that
the United states might nave user
to provide the freight carriers in
which its merchandise should be con-
veyed to Europe, Asia. Africa and
South America. A snap judgment
measure to keep American exports in
transit was improvised. But before
II could be enacted into law the situa-
ton changed. The menace of Ger
man Interference with French and
British transportation lines was re-
moved and the sea was cleared for
the free use Of neutrals trading
among themselves and also with
France and Great Britain How
could the country ever have made up
its mind about the merits of a bill
which never reached the point of seri-
Gus discussion because 1t provisions
suddenly lost all their timeliness
How can the country be said TO be
back of a scheme which was out OF
date before any one could get really
interested in il? O..
The ship purchase bill reported by
the Senate Committee on COmmerce
is crude and ovasive. II tries TO
dodge its real purpose by saying that

SPIRIT OF THE
DELMARVIA PRESS
THE STATE SENATE.

From the Dover State Sentinel
1t is hardly necessary to remark
that all good citizens, without par
ty distinction, deprecate the politi-
cal partisanship tangle that charac-
terized the beginning of the 1915 ses-
sion Of our State Assembly.
In our judgment. confessedly poor
as it may be, our Democratic friends
over-reached themselves in their par
tisan attempt to block Republican leg
islative effort. In assisting in this
ultra partisan effort. Lieutenant-Gov-
ernOr Ferguson has forfeited and lost
the good opinion of the people who
credited him with better political
ideals.
We understand how craftsmanship in
terprets law. IL is always the letter
and never the spirit, and yet here is
good authority for saying "the letter
killeth; the spirit maketh alive
Now we hold that in this case both
the spirit and the letter of the law
arc against the Democratic conten-
ton. The assumption of the Lieuten-
ant-GOvernor. of authority as Presi-
dent of the Senate was unwarranted
in tile law, for the reason that the
Senate was not organized there
fore not the Senate as contemplated in
the law as a legislative body. 1t was
not ready for the business-law maxi
ing-for which the people had elected
the Senators. The law provides for
the choosing of a presiding officer
pro TEN, and the presence of the
Lieutenant-G Governor was unneces-
cessary. If he had manifested the
sensitiveness of Speaker of the Sen
ate Watson. when by the death of the
Governor he was called to exercise the
function of Governor. he would have
avoided a grievous political error, and
retained the good will of the people,
who while good party people, dctest

law and patriotic sentiment about it,,

POLITTCAL BUCCANEERING.

From the Dover Republican
We cannot but compare the desper-
ate and almost despicable efforts of
the state Democratic Party to gain
control of the State Senate with the
high handed, high way robbery sort
of actions of Morgan. the Buccaneer
and Blackboard the Private both OF
whom preyed uDon our coast. There
is very little difference between the
actions of the Pirates of the Atlantic
Coast some two hundred and fifty
years ago and the Delaware Demo-
Gratis of the present time. The Pirates
did rob and destroy the ships Of this
and other States and they did commit
robbery and took the freedom from
the men they captured-while our
1915 Democrats have attempted TO
rob the Delaware Ship of State" and
have tried their uttermost to rob the
freemen of this State of their birth
right. We cannot condemn too en-
phatically the arbitrary and unlawful
action of our Northumberland
and his body of conspiring blue
Boards of the Senate. We cannot
commend too highly the loyal and de-
termined stand taken by the Republi-
can members of that same Senate.

HIGH.HANDED RRIGANDAGE.

HIGH.HANDED BRICANDAGE.
From the Milford Chronicle
The attempt to reverse the decision
of the people as expressed at the polls
last November. was a high handed
piece OF political brigandage. and only
failed because Of the rapidly crystal
ling sentiment in the fair dealing and
right thinking Democrats of Delaware.
against this attempt to steal control
of the Senate of Delaware. Only once
before i'm the past decade has an at
tempt Of this kind been made, and that
was in 1895. when the Democrats OF
Kent county deliberately through
their control of the political machin-
cry of that county, stole from the Re-
publicans the election of a legisla-
ture and also the election of a major
ity of the members of the Constitu
tiOnal Convention which assembled
the winter following. The same in
terests were arrayed in 1915, as we're
active in 1896 but the political CON
ditions are different now. and the peO-
pie are not serfs to do the bidding of
political tyrants. In 1915 right ana
justice has triumphed and the decis-
ion of the people stands, while in 1896
might crushed truth and justice and
prostituted political power TO per-
sOnal interests.

to internal explosion floating mines.
