At the Fônrth of July celebration
at Tammany Hall, New York, a ven
erable ex-Governor of Delaware ex
preased indirectly, the hope that Gov
ernor Hill may be nominated for the
Presidency by the next national Demo
cratic convention. While we do not
wish to deny tbe ex-Governor the right
to express his private opinion on this
subject, yet we are aware of the fact
that tbe gnat majority of Delawareans
prefer the nomination of Grover Cleve
land to that of any other man in the
country. The ex-Goveraor, because
of the high'positions which he has oc
cupied, may be considered by many
who are not acquainted with the facte
of the ca« as speaking for tbe people
of Delaware, but such was not the
ca« because be did not wish to be so
uridaratood, nor would be willingly
mMiad the people of New York in
•Mb a way.
Delawareans are for Cleveland by a
Urge majority, with Fattison as second
choice. Governor and Senator Hill is
too anxious to get into too many offic«
at ona |ime, and he do« not measure
up to the standard set by Grover Cleve
land as a fearless and honest stat«
mam qOf these facts Delawareans are
well-aware and it is now safe to my
that Delaware delegates will go to the
national convention as Cleveland men.
The Chancellor has ordered the
Levy Court to appear before him to
morrow to show «uw why an injunc
tion should not be iraued which will
prevent the Court from placing on the
duplicate four thousand names of per
sons who hold tax receipts, and who
wepre returned as delinquents. There
ahe grave doubts in the minds of some
dt the members of the Levy Court and
tbe attorney for the Court as to
whether or not them names should go
open tbe duplicates. Those doubts
have arisen from the fact that many
. persons hold receipts for taxes paid di
rectly to Collectors, and yet who have
been returned by those Collectors as
not having paid ; it is a serious ques
tion whether or not a man who has
actually paid his tax can be deprived
of his right to vote by a clerical error
made by a collector, and this quretion
has placed Mr. E. G. Bradford and
several members of the Levy Court in
very unpleasant positions.
The really dangerous and criminal
part of the whole busine« is that the
receipts which the committee of the
Levy Court had in charge, and which
that committee were ready to consider
sufficient evidence that tbe names
thereon written belonged to men who
have paid tax, seem to have been
bought at wholesale from persons who
bad no right to sell in that way. If
aby Collector has done any crimioal
act he should be summarily punished.
Tbe appointment of men who are not
fitted for the office of Collector has re
sulted in tb«i collapse of the system.
To return to the subject in hand, we
believe the effort to place these names
on tbe duplicate at this time to be tbe
work of a few persons who are allowed
to engineer the Levy Coart and who
shook! be either compelled to perform
the dattes for which tbe government
pays them or be summarily ejected
from the sinecures which they hold.
The error lists submitted by tbe Col
lectors Were examined by tbe Levy
Court and marked correct ; by that act
the Levy Court decided that these
names should be stricken from tbe
list ; to put them on at this time would
not only be contrary to law, but would
reverse tbe decision made by tbe Levy
Court in March.
The Wilmington M. E. Preachers'
Association will discuss "The Ath

Saturday night George Robinson, a
negro waiter, and Luke Nichols, a
negro desperado, become involved in
a fight. The former had the beet of

got his revenge by shooting Robin
son three times. The desperado es
caped, bat a posse is in pursuit and
if captured he may be roughly dealt
with. Robinson is mortally wound

»TEUTONS TURNS OUT AND ASSISI»'
IN MAKING IT ONB OF THE GREAT- 1
*8T EVENTS IN THE HI8TOET
OF THE TOWN.
Not only did Middletown surpass all
previous efforts in the observance of
July 4th, but she completely eclipsed
every town or city in the State,
was a memorable day in the town's
history and tbe demonstration was by
far the grandest ever held here,
weather was all that could be desired.
No disturbane« occurred and not a
single arrest was made,
was good natured and nothing occurred
in any way to mar the pleasure of
the day.
Tho shooting crackers and other
flreworks in the hands of the small
boys awoke the town at an early honr,
and from then until late at night there
was a continual boom,
ordinance prohibits the use of shooting
crackers, torpedo«, etc., within the
town limite but the Commissioners
decided to forego one day and let the
boys have their fun on the Fourth ;
and they had it.
Visitors began to pour into town
about 7 o'clock in the morning and
kept coming the remainder of the day.
They came from all parte of the State
and in almost every conceivable man
ner. Country boys with their sweet
hearts, sturdy farmers with their
families, and the dusky damsels and
their gallant beaux were all present
and swelled the crowd until it excelled
any seen here for many years.
The colored people held tbeir Fourth
of July picnic at Lamokin, Pa., and a
big crowd left on tbe 9 o'clock train
for that place. They composed almost
entirely the worst element of the col
ored people of this neighborhood and
the town was fortunate in getting
rid of them so easily. Many of the
crowd were under the influence of
liquor before they left and had they
remained no doubt there would have
been more than one fracas.
On the first southbound train came
Hyatt's Military Band and Eureka
Council, No. 22, Jr. O. U. A. M., of
Wilmington, and a crowd of visitors
from the upper part of the State. A
big delegation met tbe visitors at the
depot and headed by the Citizen's
Cornet Band of this place, t hey marched
down Main street to the Lodge room
of the Jr. O. U. A. M., in McWhorter's
Hall. The parade was tormed almost
immediately, and followed by an admir
ing crowd proceeded over the line of
march as previously made out.
The procession was headed by Chief
Maraball W. B. Reynolds, mounted on
a handsome black charger, Lina D.,
gaily decorated with flags, and seem
ingly feeling the honor conferred upon
her by being allowed to lead tbe way
on such an occasion. Hyatt's Military
Band followed, and next came Eureka
Council, No. 22. The uniforms of
the latter were linen dusters, straw
bate, and red, white and blue umbrellas
and the order presented a fine appear
ance. The speakers in carriages, the
Board of Education, W. B. Beynolds'
float, Battery A. and the Era float
followed and completed the first divis
ion of the procession. Next came a
troop of mounted deputy marshalls, the
Citizens' Cornet Band, Volunteer Ho«
Company, Volunteer Hook and Ladder
Truck, the 13 original colonies repre
sented by school children in wagons,
the Stet« represented in the same
manner, the float—Goddess of Liberty,
Major John Jones Post, No. 22, G. A.
R., float—plantation scene, the new
flag borne by members of Council, and
lastly Middletown's Jr. O. U. A. M.
All along the route the street was

decorated with flags and

banting, and the decorations in some
places were very handsome.
When the exercises began at the
Academy, immediately after the pa
rade, the large yard surrounding the
place was completely filled with people.
Tbe speakers, tbe members ot tbe
Board of Education and several others
occupied positions on the porch, which
served as a platform, and the young
ladies who were to assist with tbe
singing, the Jr. Ö. U. A. M., anff
Hyatt's Military Band stood near by.
The exercises opened with prayer by
Rev. N. M. Brown, followed by the
school children singing

u
E. R, Cochran, Jr., of this place,
delivered the oration. It was a very
able address and we are pleased to be
able to reproduce it in full on our first
page. Mr. Cochran was warmly con.
ratulated by bis friends at.the conclu
sion of his addrera.
The singing the "Red, White and
Blue " by the school was followed by
E. S. Jones introducing Gustav Bacli
aracb, Esq., of Philadelphia, to tbe
audieuce. Mr. Bocbarach made a
short but very entertaining address,
describing the aims and purposes of
the Jr. O. U. A. M., of which he is a
prominent member, and concluded by
presenting tbe flag purchased by the
Order for the Board of Education, to
that body in a few well-chosen words.
During all this time tbe audience
had kept remarkably quiet, except
when the different parts were applaud
ed, but when, after Mr. Bacharaeh's
address, tbe school began singing " The
Star Spangled Banner," the patriotic
feelings of tbe crowd could be kept
back no longer and many joined in tbe
mnsic.
Hugh C. Browne was next intro
duced and spoke for nearly an hour.
He made a very able and eloquent
address and bis remarks on receiving
tbe flag in behalf of the Board of Edu
cation, were well-cbosen and beAtting
tbe occasion. After tbe singing of tbe
doxology and tbe btnediction by Rev,
F. H. Moore, tbe flag was made ready
to run up on tbe pole,
The first attempt was unsucoessful,
and the flag did not catch tbe wind
properly, owing to some disarrange

The visitors from Wilmington —
Hyatt's Military Band, and Eureka
Council, No. 22,—were entertained in
excellent style at McWhorter's Hall,
by the home Council. After dinner
they amused themselvm in numerous
ways and seemed to have a good time.
Tbe stores did not close any time
during tbe day. They did a rushing
busine« on crackers, cheese and tht
like, and a party from tbe country,
seated on a goods box or in some out
of tbe way shady spot with a supply bf
such eatables, was not an unusual
It
sight.
The Wilmington delegation returned
home on the 4.27 train. Tie Band
discoursed some patriotic music on
their way to tbe depot and a big crowd
was on hand to a« them off. As the
traiu pulled ont of tbe station they
gave three rousing cheers for Middle
town and her Jr. O. U. A. M. Tbe
Wilmington visitors were a gentle
manly crowd and won many favorable
comments by the way they conducted
themselves.
Toward evening many of the visitors
from the country and elsewhere left
town but the streets were still thronged
with people, and they found plenty of
amusement. As soon as it became
dark enough fireyorks were brought
out and for several hours they kept
going off in different parte of tbe town.
A display given by a party of young
ladi« and gentlemen about 9 o'clock
in tbe evening, on the corner of Main
and Scott streets, attracted much at
tention and was very pretty.
By 12 o'clock there were com
paratively few people on tbe streets
and the town had once more gone
back to its usual state of quietude.
Thus closed the day on which was
held the grand«t Fourth of July dem
onstration Middletown has ever seen.
Card of Thanks.
The members of the Junior Order of
United American Méchantes wish to
return thanks to every one who »mist
ed them in any way with the Fourth
of July demonstration, and particular
ly to thorn who took part in the exer
cis« of the day.
The Secretary of the Treasury of
the United Stet« is at present en
gaged in a controversy with Mr.
Powderly, leader of the Knights of
Labor, concerning the discharge of
several printers from the government
printing office. The only reason for a
reinstatement of these men is a
political one. Secretary Foster says
they were discharged because they
were useless, and that one of them was
a dangerous character. Mr. Powder
ly steps in and informs Mr. Foster that
in case them men are not reinstated
tbe Knights of Labor will defeat Mr.
McKinley who wants to be Governor
of Ohio. Mr. Foster immediately
promises to reinstate the men when he
is informed that another labor or
ganization is stronger in Ohio than
tbe Knights, and that the reinstate
ment will cause that organization to
fight McKinley.
All this places Mr. Foster in a very
unpleasant position, and at tbe same
time mrves him exactly right. Had
he been attending to tbe duties of bis
high office instead of meddling with
Ohio politics he would not be compell
ed to attempt to deceire the working
men. If thorn plate printers were in
competent or useless they were proper
ly discharged ; if not they should have
been retained. Mr. Foster will prob
ably find enough work to do in so ar
ranging figures as to show a surplus
where a deficiency exists without tak
ing a hand in politics. Tbe dignity
and importance of the office which be
holds should cause Mr. Foster to for
sake tbe ways of the wirepuller.
A New Harvester.
Mr. W m. B. Earle, of Queen Anne's,
cut bis wheat with a new machine that
is destined in tbe near future to
supersede tbe self-binding reapers now
so universally used. Tbe Record says
there is a strangeness about tbe ap.
pearanee of such a machine, as tbe
above, to us, because of what seems to
be a verification of tbe old epigram
that "the cart is before the horse."
We behold two horses, harnessed in the
rear of the "Header," pushing forward
tbe light and simple machine as it
quickly and effectively clips from the
top of tbe standing straw tbe full
heads of wheat, which are by tbe
machine rapidly deposited in tbe ac
companying wagons, and in them
carted to tbe place of storage, to await
tbe second step by tbe busy farmer.
Tbe "Header," as it is called, which is
now at work in the fields of Mr. Earle,
is tbe first of its kind east of the Alle
ghany mountains, and is somewhat
curious to the ey« of tbe wide-awake
farmers of this county. The machine
is not guided in its course by the horses
themselves, but there is attached to the
back of the machine a small wheel or
rudder which is manipulated by the
director who rides above. As tbe en
tire machinery is before the horses and
they are compelled to follow tbe course
of the "header" itself, the helmsman
is enabled to carry bis machine by any
line that suits his fancy. Mr. Earle
and those who have witnessed its oper
ation pronounced it au undoubted suc
cess.—Centreville Record.
