T HIS eleventh-hour editorial Is addressed to the Wll

right.
The polls will not close until 7 o'clock this evening.
Therefore, you still have ample time to exercise your
right as an elector and make your Influence felt for
good in the affairs of your city during the next two
years.
Dr. Harrison W. Howell, the Republican and Na
tional Progressive candidate for Mayor, has made a
splendid chief executive of our city during tlx- last two
years and it is jtour duty, as a citizen who values hon
ett. Intelligent and effective public service, to assist in
re-electing him.
He has with hlnvoa the ticket a set of splendid men
whi are well equipped to discharge the duties of the
n(Hoes for which they have been nominated, and It Is
your duty to give to them the same hearty support
'that you give to Mayor Howell,
The moral and material interests of your city de
mand tip' election of such a ticket, pledged to an hon
est; economical and business-like administration of
public affairs.
Therefore, go to the pulling place in your district
and his associates on the Republleah and National
Progressive ticket, put the seal of your approval upon
the good wçck that has been done by the present ad
AM« and manifest your desire that that good
work shall eontmuR-ai least, two yeara longer under
Mayor Howell's competent i.nd fearless direction.
Senator du Pont s long and heroic fight, in and out
of Congress, for the reinstatement of Ralph 1, Sasse,
of this- city, and three other cutlets who were expelled
from West Point Military Academy' lor drinking black
berry wine, will lie crowned on July 4 by the cadets
returning to the academy and re-entering their old
classes. Orders to that effect have been issued by
the War Department. Senator duPont espoused the
cause of the cadets because he fell that the order of
expulsion for «uch a alight offense was an act of In
justice that should be righted. In the long fight in
thtlr behalf he encountered many obstacles.
Some
were of such a nature that they Would have daunted a
less determined man. One by one he overcame them
and succeeded finally in obtaining the order for their
reinstatement. It Is hoped that the young men thus
benefited will show their appreciation of his friendly
offices by comporting themselves so decorously that
the wisdom of the Senator's efforts in their behalf will
be fully vindicated.
WOULD MEAN MUCH TO OUR CTTT.
I T would be a blessing to the city of Wilmington if
* the Harlan and Hollingsworth Company could ob
tain the contrai t to build-one or more of the six steam
ships which the -Hamburg-Amerlcan Line will have
bull) in this country for service In the coast wise trade
through the Panama .('anal. The German company
purposes spending $12,«0ti,0«0 in huiloing its coastwise
fleet and It is forced to have the ships built In this
country in order to engage in coastwise trade through
the canal.
Hiut is given that not more than two of the ships.
each of which will have a displacement of 11,000 tons
and a length of 41*0 feet, will be built In yards on or
contiguous to the Delaware river.
If the Harlan and
Hollingsworth Company be so fortunate as to obtain
rn* or more ol the contract* it win mean that hnn
dreds of thousands of dolldrs will be pul In circula
Uun Id local trade channels.
The Police Commissioners should he impelled hy the
circumstances attending the death of David McAvaney in
the basement nf City Hall to issue a stringent order

Had such an order been
in effect and acted upon following the appliration of
McAVaney for shelter, he might not heve died.
The
fate that befell him in the so-called "hum quarters"
supplies ample ground tor positive orders to safe
guard such unfortunates In future.

A email group of marshland speculators 1» seeking to
get. away with the people't waterfront on the Delaware
river from the mouth of the Christiana river to Edge
Moor. It is the duty of Wi Ira i ngton iana. regardless of
party affiliation, to checkmate their game.
The way to do I» is vnt.e "Yes" on thr two questions
submitted. The way to „sslal those speculators in the
consummation of their scheme, is to vote "No" on those
two questions.
•Hear In mind the fact that the speculators, repre
sented by the Wilmington Terminal Company, are after
from 600 to 800 acres of the people's land lying on the
Delaware river, between the mouth of the Christiana
and Edge Moor; a bulkhead and till costing the people
between $250 000 and $300,000, and between one and
tw'o miles of the city waterfront on the Delaware.
Do not forget the fact that the only way to prevent
the speculator!) from getting away with that property,
belonging to you and jour friends and neighbors, is
to upset I ho Iniquitous Bulkhead Law of 1I1.I1 through
an action al law brought hy the City Solicitor, or. In
etent of the failure to upset that law. to condemn a
narrow strip of land along the present marsh bank out
to low water mark.
It is because of the necessity for doing (hose things
to protect the people's property on the Delaware river
waterfront that every patriotic Wilmingtonlan should
vote "Yes" In the city election today. Casting such a
ballot will administer a well-deserved rebuke to those
to get away with valuable public
properly for their personal enrichment.

NEWARK AMI HEWERS,
E agree with our esteemed contemporary, the
Newark Post, in the following editorial on the
sewer sit tint Ion In that town:
w
Newnrk has reason for congratulation. The in
stallation ot a Sewer System, a subject of serious
consideration for years, \yns approved on Saturday
by a strongly decisive vote. Although there wa 8 op
position. it was in most part objection to minor de
tails of the hill which are now accepted with expres
sion of hearty co-operation. These detail« were really
of minor consideration compared to (no vital impor-'
lance of the real Issue. They were matters of honest
difference of opinion. Rut now the question has been
decided, all citizen« truly interested fu the town's
welfare will accept the verdict and render service to
those In charge of the work.
The action on Saturday was In keeping not. only
with the modern and' scientific way but the common
sense method of up-to-date sanitation. In a word,
the citizens have decided to assume the responsi
bility and perform their part in making Newark an
ideal place to live. Aside from Ibis, We have shown
public
and have gained the confidence of the whole State,
which people were rightfully serious in their criti
cism. ' .
It Is hoped every one will enter Into the spirit of
the Improvement and we predict that in a few years
we will point w ith pride In. (he town that assumes Its
proper responsibilities, that Is- Newark, tho Town
Beautiful and the Community Worth While.
Newark Is a college town and the parents of stu
dents have a right to expert that such a town will
supply adequate' protection to such students by pro
viding adequate sewer facilities and a good water
supply.
If conditions in the Paint Crock and Cabin ("\'ek
coal districts In West Virginia even approximate the
descriptions of them that have been sent, broadcast, it
Is high time that they be investigated thoroughly and
impartially. Tho Swanson committee, appointed, by
the United States Senate to make such an investiga
tion. has hl important work to do. It should hew .to
the mark, no matter where Hie chips may fall. The
absolute truth should be brought out, regardless of
its effect ufton either the mine owners or the miners.

It. is highly impartant that George Dutton, the slayer
of Arnold Tenant at Brrtgevllle, Sussex county, he cap
tured. He not only has committed a heinous crime,
hut also has terrorized all that section -of the county
and threatened to kill anyone who may attempt to
arrest him. There has been entirely too m«xh law
lesness in Sussex during the last two years and the
lawless element there would he encouraged by the
escape of such a desperado as Dutton.
If .the schools in our rural districts are to be im
proved, progressive commissioners must he elected by
the voters in the several districts. The trouble in too
many rural districts is that the boards are controlled
hy Incompetents and reactionaries. The result is poor
schools, unsightly grounds, poorly-paid teachers and
consequent lack of efficiency.

How Senator Hoar Admin

One morning in 1883 I mot Henry

that time anxious to get certain in

Interest to the people of ManRachu

Davis could enlighten me I ventured
to stop him.
Tho Senator was very
but he suggested that as he waa ini
something of a hurry I should walk
along with him as far as the main en
Iranee to the treasury department,
In that way I could tell him what
was In my mind to ask him.
"You had better see Senator Hoar
about that," he said when 1 had fin
ished. "He knows more about the
matter than I do. I don't know
whether you will find him In a very
pleasant frame of mind, however,
this morning, for he wgs considerably
worked up over an experience ^ie had
last night at a- reception* given by a
Senator at his house.
"I don't think 1 had better tell you
what the experience was, yet It might
he of interest to you. If you care to
know, I would suggest that you see
some member of the Massachusetts
delegation in the House of Represen
tatives."
Tlie incident to which Senator
Dawes referred was afterward told
to me in these words:
"A ce'rlaln Senator—I don't think t
had belter mention his name—gave a
large reception last night. He was not
the only Senator at whose, house re
ceptions were held last evening,
you cannot place him.
"Senator Hoar has a? a guest a
very successful newspaper proprietor
of New England. He tu R. M. Ptil
slfer. president and manager of the
Boston Herald. Senator Hoar is very
fond of Mr. Pulstler. Theip personal
relations have been very close for
some years.
"As the Senator was priviliged to
take a friend to the reception, he
asked Mr. Pulsifer to grt with him.
In due time the Massachusetts men
approached the great Senator who
was giving the reception. Senator
Hoar ' introduced Mr. Pulsifer as a
Boston man of influence.
"The host asked Mr. Pulsifer what
his business was. and Pulsifer, being
a mhdest man, replied; 'I am a news
paper man.'
" 'Ah.' replied the distinguished and
dignified Senator, 'I am glad Senator
Hoar has brought, you here. I am
glad to know you. I suppose you
come from Boston to Washington
to pick up a few items for your
paper.'
.''Thereupon Senator Hoar ex
plained: 'Senator, Mr. Pulsifer is in
Washington as my guest.' And then
the two guests proceeded on their
way. *,

so
mal part of the reception was ended.
Senator »Hoar met his distinguished
colleague and said to him:
the gentleman you asked If he had
come to Washington to pick up items
for his newspaper is the president of
the most important and most profit
able newspaper corporation in Now
England. It Is one of the great news
papers of the United Slates. He is a
man of large wealth. In addition to
being' proprietor of a great newspa

tain parts of Florida, and is now
building a railroad in lower Florida
All newspaper proprietors, Senator,
do not visit Washington fo the sak"
of 'picking up Items.' Many of them
are the equals in wealth, intelligence
and Influence of men who are sitting
either in the Senate or in the House
of Representatives. Mr. Pulsifer is
one of that kind.' Having said this,
Senator Hoar went away, satisfied
that he had in some measure embar
