C. T. U." was a special fea ture of the program at the aftertnoon session of the County ,W. C .n'. -U. Spring Institute yesterday. Rietta Emerson, of Baltimore, Dr. Joel Gilfillan debated Miss and on the affirmative side, and the negative was taken by Dr. J. R. Milligan, of St. Georges, and Professor A. R. Spaid of this city. The arguments were forcefully pre sented. but the better one was made by those on the affirmative side, ac cording to the judges, Mrs. Cara Oberholtzer. Dr. Wilbur F. Corkran, and Professor Frledel, who decided in their favor. A meeting of the executive com mitlee preceded the session.

From the Dover Republican. It strikes us the managers of the Republican party in Wilmington are exhibiting very little political acu men or even common "boss'' sense, The Regular Republicans, the "Na An excellent paper, pertaining to the needs of thc proposed Thomas Garrett Settlement House, was read by Mrs. J.

Wilmington is a Republican city, ns this State is a Republican State. It was Just "by tho skin of our teeth" we saved control of the State at thc last election, despite our healthy ÄÄÄÄ ruption fund, and all the while 1t was doing Its insidious work, the party managers were how ling for ylrtuo and threatening d.re ponaltte. for the Republican who would dare transgress in the same direction, They successfully played their game and won on it. Our men working honestly, fairly, made tha grievous mistake of not discovering and checking the work of the corrup tionists, and the result is known. This was a blunder in one line and It was disastrous. Now do not iet us have it duplicated in another line In the Wilmington election, There is no question that the Demo crats will use every effort to keep the Republican party elements aparf., and our party managers have but little time so to assimilate these ele ments as to convince them that Re ments as to publicans are Republicans and not j merely cats' paws for Democrats, it can be done if right counsels pre vail and the right men are given j control of the helm. Let it be done—ami at once. RECORD IRON AND STEEL EXPORTS From the Iron Traàe Review. iron and steel exports in February, a short month, amounted to 241,8741 gross tons in the tonnage Items, a! decrease of 8,000 tons from January, j and just a trifle under the average! of last year. A new record, how- j ever, is made, and while it Is not a t particularly important one. it Is worth I mentioning, in that the exports for twelve consecutive months have now passed well above the 3 . 000 , 000 -ton ! 'mark, thc total for thc 12 months: ending February being 3,083,328 gross | tons. The total for the calendar j year 1912 was 2,948,466 tons. No important changes have occurred] In the character of our iron and steel | I exports, thc distribution in recent I months having been substantially the I same as formerly. The value of all iron and steel ex-1 ports In February was $24.085,871, showing a slight decrease from Janu ary, but a gain over thc average of last year. Thc showing as to the value of iron and steel exports in recent month* >s particularly favorable, in view of! the exclusion of electrical machinery. etc., since July 1, 1912. Even with tills exclusion, the exports of iron and steel and manufactures in tho eight months ended February, 1913, were $198,310,228, against $158,666,701 iu the eight months ended February, 1912. The exclusion of electrical' machinery was clearly proper, since obviously most electrical machinery contains copper ,»nd brass of consider-| able value, hut the propriety of the change Is made still more apparent by observing that among the electrical machinery formerly classified under iron and sled there are included both arc lamps and incandescent lamps. ported in the eight months ended February was $16,858,692, while agri cultural Implements, winch have al ways been returned separately from iron and steel, amounted to $25,813, 638.
