FROM INFORMATION since received We
are led to believe that the action of the
President of the Board Of Education in
making his appointments is not SO non
partisan as we gave credit for, and we
must confess that careful glance at
the composition ofthe committees seems
to bear ont this view Of the case. Or .
of the most suspicious looking things
in the whole affair is that the chairman
of the most important committee Of the
Board, was one who up puntil two O'Clock
on Monday afternoon before the organi-
zation of the Board, swore most en-
phatically that under n, circnmssal ces
would he vote for the Re. election Of the
present President; yet be did vot, fer
him, and got two of the most responsi
BILE positions ia the gift of the Presi-
dent. TIL may not ! 9 bargain and
sale, Dut II IOJFS very iilucu IKE one.
We are ais, inf,rmed that tie Presi-
dent Of the BoArd himself called eau
Gus of the Democratic members of the
Board, and th4 notices were served by
jlr. Daily, the B4iiilT Of the City Coun-
ell. Besides this it is well known that
the President was elected by Twelve
Democratic votes, not a Republican
voting for him. If these thing3 are so,
and We believe they are, we will have
to conclude that the actions of the
President are not 80 bipartisan as We
were led to believe.

WHETHER President Hayes vetors ,

WHETHER PRESIDENT Hayes vetors or
approves the military non-interference
bill, the back down of the Democrats Is
complete. Hon. Hester Clymer Demo
cratic Congressman from the FerkS
district is quoted as saying: why
W. had the Presidents veto II ssage be.
fore us in the caucus; We studied IT
very carefully and We framed that bill
exactly to fit it and it does fit it, This
shows that the present bill Is com
plete Democratic surrender, and is but
an excuse for letting themselves out
OF the unpleasant dilemma in which
t,ey have found themselves as easily
as possible. This is the reason why
it i. i. believed that the President will
si4 n the present bill. The question
however in regard to what the Pres
dent will do will soon be settled, possi-
bly before this paper reaches its read
ers, but if settled by an acceptance of
tn. obnoxious bill it will be against
the earnest protest of the whole Re-
publican party. If the bill does moth
ing else, it re-attirms the principle put
in practice at the South by the rebel
Democracy that deprives every Republic
can of his right in the hull-dozing
States. If he has sufficient patriotism
to attend elections and attempt to vote,
it will be at the peril Of his life-pro,
viding he insists upon voting contrary
to the wishes of the armed moes by
whom he will be surroun 1ed-the red
shirted brigade always on hand and
not prohibited by State laws from Gin
reference at the polls"

Tue "Heraln" is right for oncr. We

careful not to publish it until we took
it to several parties out side, f.miliar

after which it became our own report.
We must however congratulate ,he
"Herali' On having a v"iy correct re-
port. II it had used the sam precau-
ton when it published our report of
the Sunday Sch ol officers On Saturday,
it would not have leen detected so
easily. To-day we have again c.ipl ed

Cleanse the city,

| We 40 not WISH 10 ne au aNarllllhl, Il,
but it probably might be no harm to
remind our citizpns that there are strong
indications that the yellow fever may
return to the South during the coming
summer, and if it does come and ex-
tend farther north than it did last SUM
mer, there is no reason to suppose that
Wilmington will be any more ex-
empt from its ravages than any other
cities except 50 far as it is better drain
ed and cl-ansed. If it does come it is
question for the Board of Health to
determine whether its attack shall be
light or severe by making preparations
to receive it. The same should be done
now that would lie when the epidemic
comes. The same prrcaution now might
entirely ward of tho disease, that
would only molify it after it has set in.
The city should be thoroughly cleansed
now right at the commencement of sum
mer and kept rigidly cleansed all
, through the summer. Tha germs Of
disease are hidden away in many cell
lar or rubbish pile in back yard that
has been accumulating all through the
winter, and now is the time that all
such otfal and decaying vegetable sub
stances should he removed. This is
the work that the Board of Health
should look after, and they should zee
that the law is strictly and promptly
arricd out in regard to overhp wing
wells and ools of stagnated water. All
that section Of the city bordering on
Shipley Run needs immediate atten tion
as the run being partly open and part
y arched is ready place for the col
lection and Judgement of filth. The old
bed of Shipley Run between Fifth and
Sixth streets has become place for the
throwing Of all kinds of ohal ana rub.
bish and helped by the drainage from
several cow.staLles and hog opens it is
already plsc, sickening to look at,
and offensive to the olfactores of not
only the residents Of the vicinity but
to every p sserby. The Board of Health
should go to work immediately and
have all such nuisaIc.s removed and
have those prosecuted who persist in
making them. As the yellow fever
conm need its ravages in the Southern
cities last sumner, followed the wa
ter courses and dirtiest streets, Shipley
Run would be the first place in Will
mington to invite an attack. Let our
city authorities act upon the principle
that can ounce of prevention is worth
a pound of cure"

CHANDLER THOUGH he may not bs SC
poi shed a speaker as Edmund',or Bay
ard, nevertheless utters some original
but homely truths, and amongst them
is that wherein he says that when the
North put upon the South the robe OF
citizenship, and killed the fatted calf,
and invited the prodigal sons to the
feast, the South came forward with the
calm remark-"We "have always own.
ed that calf, and we are "not grateful
for the feast"

DecOrstiOn Day.

The associations of decoration day
are too sad and its memories are too
sacred, to permit it to pass by without
due observance, and while We are not
afraid that it will be forgotten it is to
be regretted that there is not more Of =
desire on the part Of the friends OF the
fallen brave, to make the occasion one
of the most impressive holidays of the
year. On next Friday two weeks the
day with all its sad and glorious MEM
cries will be upon US, and it is high
time that arrangements were being
made to make the demonstration one of
more than usual significance on account
of the herculsan efforts of the Southern
revolutionists, aided by few cringing
politicians of the North, to annul and
blot out all for which the northern sol,
diers fought. If the Union was worth
the lavish outlay Of blood and treasure,
if the Government is worth maintain
ing and preserving inviolate and un-
sullied, if the flag around which the
good rallied is an emblem of the
truth and honor of the cause which was
won by the most undaunted bravery
by danger that was never feared, by
devotion that never tired, which led
men to make almost any sacrifice if
these things mean anything, let the
citizens OF Wilmington emphasize
their opinions by honoring decoration
day this year as it has never before
been honored. Let there be such
demonstration as will show that the
same bravery and heroic devotion that
saved the nation in its darkest hour of
its trouble, is still cherished and ready
to perpetuate it's glories, whenever Tie
time comes for it to be called into
action. We hope that the lead in this
matter will be taken by the soldier 7e-
terans, many of whom are still amongst
US. Let meeting be called, an Or
ganization effected, and an appeal be
made for flowers and the effort cannot
fail of success. There are hundreds of
citizens who will be ready to contribute
not only their first fresh flowers of
summer for the occasion, but they are
ready to contribute to pay their share
Of any reasonable expense which
may accrue. With little effort
owing to the course of the present
Congress essentially rebel, the demon
stration this year should be the grand
est and most impressive made since the
grand turnout of all the military, the
civic societies, the Sunday schools and
the citizens in 1866. Let a meeting of
the soldiers of the war for the Union be
called soon, either independent of or in
conjunction with meeting OF citi Lens,
to make arrangements for a grand ana
solemn celebration.

IL HIS SPEECH en Friday published
elsewhere in the REPUBLICAN, Chandler
said that on the brow of Democrats is
written the warning phrase: "Mene,
meme, tekel, upharsin." The New
York "Tribune" says, Chandler is mis-
taken; that the average Democratic
brain is not of a size to accommodate
the whole of that inscription.
