The "Gazctte" keeps up the cry
for economy and reform and reduction
of the tax rate to one dollar on the
hundred, while the City Council,
which it would make us believe,
is the very embodiment of honesty,
economy and reform is trying to increase
the police force, which will require an
increase Of the appropriations for sala-
ries. The Democrats want more police
bull-dozers at the election to bully Re-
publicans out Of their votes as they did
at the last election. If they get an
olher policeman, something after the
Dolan stripe in the Seventh ward, and
then get an inspector of elections there
something like Lee, they may stand a
chance OF carrying that Ward for the
Democrats. As Dolan and some more
Of the police were amongst the principal
law-breakers on election day, Wa do not
see why an increase of such force is
desired. If they were appointed to
preserve the peace and protect citizens
in their right to vote, there might be need
Of some more, but with the experience
Of the past, especially that of the last
election, We need no more police.

GEORGIA HAS been pointed out by
the Democratic papers as the honest
Democratic empire State of the South.
II We believe those papers, there was
no bull-dozing i'll that State, but it fell
into Democratic hands because it want
cd an honest administration, and re-
,lief-from the carpet baggers that run
II in debt. Well Georgia has been
under Democratic domination for some
eight years and what do we see
Goldsmith, State Controller, resigned
to escape conviction Of impeachment
proceedings. The State Treasurer is
on the point of Impeachment for like
cause, and the Commissioner of Agri-
culture, the Attorney General and
keeper Of the penitentiary are on the
list for exposure. The Democracy
captured Georgia on the cry of ere
form" and have already rivaled their
predecessors in rascality.

Sheriff Pyle carries in his breeches

prising efforts in collecting and pub
fishing locals. For instance, on Men,
day a store was robbed at Hockessin.
On Tuesday reward Of $25 was offer
ed in the "Every Evening" for the ar
rest and conviction Of the thief. On
Wednesday the REPUBLICAN published
local of the robbery made up from
the advertisement. On Thursday the
West Chester "Record" made local
from the REPUBLICAN, local, and this
Saturday morning the SherifF's little
whistler published the West Chester
papers local. This is the paper that

The DEMOCRATIC papers have raised a
howl about fraud having
been perpetrated in the Maine elections,
but the only fraud that has yet cropped

poll is purged it will add one more to

Afale fairs.

As 1t is so we'll known what killed
the large agricultural fairs that used to
be held in Wilmington, would it not be
we'll for our down country friends to
guard against q recurrence Of the same
thing in the fairs which are soon to be
held 7 An honest trial of the speed and
strength N, horses is commendable, but
race course 10 the possession Of and
controlled by dishonorable horse jock
eys and gamblers is reprehersible and
should bs frownsd down by all good cit.
izens. 1t wont take many fairs where
dishonest jockeys have control Of the
races to wind up our down State fairs.
The moral sense of the people Of the
agricultural districts of the State viii
rebel against knavery and trickery, ana
if the race course is not kept clear Of
such disreputable and dishonest char
acters a. disgraced the fairs formerly
held at Wilmington, the Dover and
Middletown fairs will, in the lapse Of
short time, ,dwindle down to utter insig-
nificance, like the Wilmington fairs
were before they closed entirely. We
would say nothing to discourage our
down State friends--indeed their efforts
to make their fairs a grand success are
in the highest degree commendable,
but having known the cause of the de-
cline Of the Wilmington agricultural
fairs we would raise a warning voice
against repetition Of the same thing
At Dover and Middletown. Dover and
Middlstown are both located in the
midst Of rich agricultural regions, fully
able to sustain first class agricultural
fairs, not merely horse races, but exhi-
bitions Of cereals, fruit, stock, including
horses, agricultural implements, and
domestic industries, and we hope that
while the trials Of speed and strength
Of horses will not be neglected, that the
real purposes for which agricultural
fairs are ostensibly held will be kept
in the foreground.
Lancaster County, the garden agri-
cultural spot Of Pennsylvania, has had
an Agricultural Fair which is said to
have been financial success, but it is
charged by the "New Era," a leading
paper Of Lancaster that, that magnif-
cent county was represented by the
most beggarly display of cereals, only
six farmers having sent exhibits of
their crops. We hope that the same re-
proach will never be visited upon the
farmers of Delaware in regard to their
agricultural fairs, and we will venture
to say that so long as they take the
fair in hand and make it a real exhibi-
tion of agriculture, fruit and stock
raising and domestic industries, lust 20
long will their fairs be a moral as we'll
as financial successes, but just as soon as
dishonest horse Jockeys and gamblers
get control the days of their existence
will be numbered.
