THOSE DEMOCRATS who tooliShly
imagined the Republican party was
about going into dissolution are doomed
to disappointment. In every election
in the North, held since the Presiden-
tial contest, the Republicans have more
than held their own, and in the South
they have made rapid gains. Virginia
has slipped away from Bourbon Demo
cratic control, which is 50 much gain
to the Republicans, even though it
should not become a Republican State.
News come to US that Tennessee is
shaking off the Bourbon yoke and with.
cut any coalition it is predicted that in
the next contest it will be a straight
Republican State. In the latter State
very nearly the same financial issue
has been raised as in Virginia, but
there the debt paying Democrats are
allying themselves to the Republicans,
in order to defeat the low tax party
In Virginia, the case was reversed.
The Bourboas declined atfiliation with
the Republicans and left them no choice
but to unite with the Readjuster party
of the State, which aside from financial
matters, afforded them legislation fair
and impartial, free schools, free voting
- l,,N
same spirit of reform is going on all
through the South and has taken deep
root in Georgia, Florida, Texas and in.
deed in all the gulf States. The Re.
publican party never was stronger nor
more united than at present. Let our
Democratic friends mark that.

Oity FinancsS.

After the orders passed by the City
Council on Friday evening are pad,
there will only be lett little over
$4,000. Fortunately for the city about
ssO. 600 will be due in water taxes after
the LIST of January and this VIII 60 !"
~o,s,darable distance towards carrying
the city through to the first OF 'oly.
Viewed in its best aspect, however,
there will not be enough money to meet
the current expenses ofthe city for the
last six months in the year, and with
out casting any reflections on the
financial management of City affairs,
il becomes evident that tho amount OF
taxes raised does not meet the necessa-
ry expenses. Should improvements go
on at the rate they have done the pre-
sent wear, more money will he needed
in opemng and grading streets, lay
ing water pipes, aud curbing and paw
ing, Wilmington is becoming metro
politan city, and though expenditures
should be frugal and economical, it is
ali foolishness to Try to get along on the
amount of money that sufficed in form
ar wears, How to meet these increased
expenditures is a problem to be solved
by the people and especially by the
City Council.
1t is very certain that property Is not
suually valued. S23,0oO,O01 valuation
for a city like Wilmington, with $4,000
population, and exporting $25,OOO,O 900
worth of products is comparatively
nothing The property of score of men
in Wilmington if valued at full rates
would amount to almost that much If
there is no other way to get at the ques-
tion of equal and correct taxation,
there should be a reassessment of pro-
perty which would equalize values. We
are finding no particular fault With the
party in power. There have, we
think, been cases wherein money was
foolishly expended, but this happens
with all local administrations. The
great difficulty is that the City Council
had not enough money to expend. 1t is
very evident that 1915, 900 raised annu-
ally by taxes is not sufficient, besides
the revenues to run thi, city without
creating floating debts which always
end in permanent debts.
How is more money to be raised,
that is the question? Let the City
Council and the people who make the
City Council ponder and think.

The Route tOthe River.

In the opening of the contemplated
route, which we believe is the one most
popular at the present time, it would
perhaps be well not to make too much
haste and incur a debt which would
hang like an incubus around the neck
OF Wilmington for many years here
after We understand that the Seventh
street route would run right through
the works of the Jackson & Sharp Com
pany, one of the leading manufacturing
firms Of the city, and that the city
would undoubtedly have to pay a large
amount in. damages-probably over
$5O,OOO for going through the works.
This is an important consideration and
one that should not be lightly passed
ever. Here are two interests TO suh-
serve-the city's needs and the large
Jackson x Sharp Company's works. If
there is no other way on the northern
SItit ny WDlCu JIlt TlNtT Can Dp HuNHn-
tageously reached we would then say
let nothing stand in the way of it. A
road to the river is the great object now.
1t should have been built many years
ago-even before the jackson & Sharp
works were erected. If put off longer
o5her manufacturing firms will block
up the way. But the question is, can
the river be reached to advantage in no
other way than by going through the
jackson & Sharp works? Will not
Eighth, Ninth, Tenth or Eleventh
streets do as well at least to cross the
Brandywine by? We only ask this
question not knowing what objections
lie against them. One of them we
know is, that it would throw a wharf
on the river too far above the mouth of
the Christiana. This may be true, but

Mr.. MCMENAMIN is the Conkling of
the City Council. If he cannot have
his own way he won't have anyway,
In rcsiguing the place however upon
the committees, he took good care not
to resign Is a member Of the City COun-
Gil. If Mr.. McMenamin would take
this last step thepeope almost unanim-
ouaI Iyand gladly accept his resignation.
But what can the trouble be anyhow
We have vague intimatiOn that Mr..
McMenamin and the Street Commits
siOner Mr.. Lynch could not get along
agreeahly in harness, and Mr. McMena-
min could not succeed in having Mr..
Lynch removed from his Office, like
spoiled boy he resolves to have nothing
more to do with any of the committees.
1t remains to be seen whether the other
members Of the City Council will tame
ly submit to such imperious dictation.
If Mr.. McMenamin is too high toned to
work on the committees, he ought to be
too high toned to serve in Council with
out doing his legitimate share of the
work of Council. The only thing Mr..
McMenamin can consistently do now is
to resign from Council and allow his
place to he filled by any one of hun
dred men that can be found in the

is it absolutely necessary that the road
must be straight to the river? Nearly
all the main avenues leading into the
city cut diagonally across the regu-
larly laid out streets. Maryland ana
Pennsylvania avenues, the Phllauel-
phia Pike, and even Christiana avenue
on the south side, do not run parallel
with the regular streets. Even i'll the
regularly laid out city of Philadelphia
there are large numbers of public
thoroughfares that pursue 2lgzag
course, and yet they are more travelled
than the regular streets \ zigzag
road or a road cut diagonally across
lots and other streets would no doubt
mar the regularity and symmetry of
the regularly laid out streets, but we
have to take things as we find them
and are often compelled to choose util-
ity before beauty. Why would not a
lDdl u lilt llNtI tloSSlHS llt bldlNly
wine at Eleventh street bridge answer
the purpose? Eleventh street followed
up through the city comes right up to
the new courthouse, which in the course
of few years will be the centre OF
population and of business. A road
east by Eleventh street b b'idge, to reach
the eastern end of Seventh street would
necessarily pass diagonally across
Tenth, Ninth and Eighth streets, but
would this be much of an objection
We do not so mich object to the dam,
ages the city would have to pay fol
going through the jackson x SHARP
works, as we object to the injury which
would be done to the works. Anything
which would destroy the efficiency of
those works should, if possible, be
avoided. They are a great blessing to
our city, and employ hundreds Of hands
and should not be disturbed if any
other practical way can b9 found to
reach the river

Garbaxe Cart Nuisance.

Whatever is offensive to the smell is
deleterious to health and every effort
should be made to abate the cause.
There is nothing more offensive to the
smell than the slop carts which peram-
bulate our streets and offend both sight

carts are necessary and if the smell can
not be avoided it is better to put
up with the same the few times the
garbage carts get around rather than To
have none. We have no doubt there
are ways to kill this deadly miasmatic
smell that comes from the garbage carts
