dent Of markets. We presume it is pos
sibIe that with this increase in official
machinery there might be no correspond
ing increase in the expenses Of the city
government, but II is not very likely
If the town shall be made a second
lass city such increase may be natural
y expected and could hardly be avoid
ed. The question must therefore be
considered whether we are prepared for
L change altogether likely to increase
the expenses of local government. The
mere legal recognition Of the town as a
city viii make it no more so in fact, and
very little more in name. Without the
requisite population the town would not
be a city either IN law or fact, while with
that essential element the legal recogni-
ton is a matter of indifference. But we
have the population the census shows
It, and that IS as good a certificate as
The Secretary of State can give.
We have been reliably informed that
several towns which have been advanc-
ed to cities of the second grade have
had occasion to repent of the step. Be
fore Delaware takes a like step it IS i'm
Dortant that the advantages to be ac-
quired by it should be clearly presented

CITY OR NO CITY-A movement is
On foot to reconstruct the town of Della
ware as a city of the second class. The
law provides that whenever one hun
dred resident freeholders of an incorPo-
rated village shall petition the council
thereof for the advancement of said
village to the grade of a city of the
second class, the council shall cause the
question of such advancement to be
submitted to a vote of the legally quail
fed electors at the next ensuing annual
election of municipal officers. If a
majority of the votes cast at such cleo
lion shall be in favor of advancement.
The council shall so declare. by resolu-
ton, and the corporation clerk thereupon
certifies said resolution to the Recorder
of the county. The Recorder. after
making the required record. shall for
ward a certified transcript of the same
to the Secretary of State, and the cor
poration shall be thereafter deemed and
neld to be a city of the second class,
and. as soon as organized as such, its
aew rank shall be recognized in ali
judicial proceedings in the State.
