DEMOCRATS PR0P0SE DEAL
Agree to Elect Republican Senator la
Delaware for Certala Consideration.
DOVER, Del., Jan. 14. The twenty-one
democratic members of the legislature held
a confert nee after the general assembly
had adjourned today and later Issued this
statement:
Vo the People of Delnwnre:
The undtnlgned democrats of the gen
eral assembly deem It proper to announce
the position they have aumed In thin
political criHts and to say that we, concur
In the position now stated. We are deter
mined, if possible, to prevent the further
corruption of elections In this state, and to
that nl demand that If any republicans in
the legislature are desirous of co-operating
with us they shall pledge themselves to
Join us In every effort having for its ob
ject the repeal of that diabolical and mon
strous Instrument of corruption, the voter'
iiFflstant Ihw.
This we regard an the greatest object to
which our efforts can be directed, and we
desire no political association with Any
nan or organization not in accord with this
object. The co-operation of two repub
licans in the senate and four In the house
will enable us to repeal this Infamous Inw,
and shoulu the governor veto the repeal,
means may be found to compel his ac
quiescence. With respect to the election of I'nlted
States senators, we hereby declare that if
six republicans will Join with the twenty
one democrats we will elect any republican
who ha' shown himself opposed to Ad
dlcklsm; eruch six may select a senator for
the long term of the four years if they Join
us In electing a democrat whom we shall
select for the shorter term of two yesrs,
provided such six republicans shall do this
not later than on the first Joint ballot for
senaiora, janunry zj.
The statement asserts that the object of
the announcement Is that the people of the
state may place the blame for corrupt
politic where It belongs. The union, or
Addlcks republicans, arranged a hurried
conference, but several members were ab
sent and nothing definite was decided upon
