NEARING THE END.

Next week will end the political
campaign in State and country. One
week from next Tuesday the voters
will go to the polls and record their
verdict.
The outlook Is good for the Demo-
cratic party throughout the country
and especially here in Delaware. II
has made a clean, effective and insplr-
ing campaign. II hns invited the
voters 10 give careful consideration
TO all the facts, 10 all the issues and
vote accordingly.
Here in Delaware this appeal is
proving effective. The people are
asked to consider conditions under
Republican administration, in coun-
try and State.
Especially are they urged 10 con-
slider conditions of State and local
government - inefilciency. extrava-
gance and high taxes-under years
Of Republican administration.
And in view Of these conditions they
are asked 70 vote for radical change
with full confidence that 1t will prove
| to their advantage.

PUT NEWBERRY ON STUMP.

For obscure reasons the Republicans
in their fight TO retain control of the
Senate have neglected a golden oppor-
tunIty. With the issue in doubt they
have nowhere drawn on one of their
biggest assets.
Newberryism has become n national
issue. II has been warmly discussed
in State after State by rival Republi-
cans and by Democratic and Repub-
ncan candidates. Republican Senator
after Republican Senator seeking re-
election in November. has had to de-
fend himself for voting against the
expulsion of Truman II. Newberry
from the Senate. Secretary Hughes,
Senator Newberry's former attorney,
has done mis- best to aid them by pro-
claiming the Michigan Senator to be
a man of spotless character and above
reproach.
Then why keep Senator Newberry
in concealment during a campaign
when so many Republican Senators
who went to his rescue at a time he
was in danger of losing his seat In the
Senate are In danger of losing their
own seats in the Senate? In common
gratitude for what they did for him
he should be on the stump day and
night working for their recollection.
His name would he an immense draw
ing card wherever he appeared for
there are not many men whose cleo
ton TO the Senate cost more than
$3.50, 900.
By rights, Senator Newberry ought
to be touring this State with Senator
Calder, who voted for him last Janu-
airy. He ought TO be over in New
Jersey with Senator Frelnghuysen,
who voted for him. And in Massa-
chusetts doing his best to pull Senator
! Lodge through, for Senator Lodge
voted for him. And in Maryland at
! Senator Frances side. for one good
turn deserves another. And in Con-
necticut, where Senator Mclean, an
other Newberry man, has a hard race,
and as far away as Washington, where
Miles Poindexter, still another New
berry Senator, Is fighting desperately
But If any one Republican Senator has
prior claims on Truman II. Newberry's
services at this season II surely Is

SHOULD NAME THE OTHERS.

Judge William II. Boycc. Democratic
candidate for Representative in Con
gress. quickly and emphatically do
niod the intimation by Representative
Caleb r. Layton that Judge Royce
had advised him 10 vote against the
Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. For this
vote the Negroes of Delaware are now
vigorously opposing him.
That DIR. Layton conferred with
Judge Boyce about this measure is
not denied. but he cannot place upon
his competitor the responsibility FOR
his vote. Also. he conferred with
others.
Now the interesting question in:
Who were the "others7" DIR. Layton
has not mentioned their names thus
far.
II would be interesting 10 know, Tor
no doubt some prominent Republicans
are among them. And they must have
advised him to vote as he did.

RAILROAD MERGERS.

The extent to which public opinion
on the subject OF railroad competition
has changed la indicated by the state
ment that Senator Cummins, one OF the
trainers of tho present railroad law,
proposes an amendment providing for
compulsory consolidation, Under the
law now in effect the Interstate Com
merce Commission Ia empowered to ap-
provo the group of roads. but the
companies are not obliged to accept the
combinations favored by the Federal
board. Thus tho departure contem-
plated is a radical one.
A few years ago the Joining of
parallel roade under a single manage
ment was believed to be against the
public interest Tho consolidation OF
rival roads like the Great Northern and
tho Northern Pacific wua bitterly
fought. notwithstanding the economic
advantages offered by the Northern Sc
curltiee combination. Later the Gov
ernmcnt upset the stock control of the
Southern Pacific by the Union Pacific,
secured by i. ~. Hartman, and re-
Gently the Supreme Court decided that
the holding of the Central Pacific by
the Southern Pacific was In violation
of law although the Southern Pacific
acquired the Central Pacific long be-
fore Congress passed the Sherman law.
Now Congress Ia manifcsting n deCid-
ed disposition TO encourage the gen
eral adoption OF the ideas OF lIlll and
Hartman and TO compel companies
not caring TO take other lines TO en-
large their holdings. The change of
sentiment Ia indeed remarkable.
To what extent railroad companies
should be forced to receive Improbable
properties Ia II questlon not easily de-
clded. In some cases weak lines may
be absorbed without appreclahly af-
fecting earnings; In others tho PROS
porous companies may be fully juatl-
fled I'm rejecting merger plans which
look well on the map. But there Is
no doubt as to the favorable outlCok
for good many conaolidations.--
