AN ACTIVE Bu1LpINa sEAsoN.-

AN ACTIVE BUILDING SEASON.
The present is an active building sea-
son. There are a good many small
houses being put up by builders on
their own account for sale on compile
tion, and a few by private parties
owning lots that are too heavily taxed
to lie unimproved. But there are but
two or three large buildings that re-
auire much brick and lumber. The
work, therefore, is mostly of light
character, requiring but little capital.
So far nothing has been done on the
p, W. g. b. depot proper. The skel-
eton work of the huge car sheds is well
under way. 1t is mostly of iron and
is put together very rapidly. The de-
pot house proper is to front on French,
Water and Front streets, and 1t has
not been touched. 1t now suggested
in rumors that the p. Company has
determined that Wilmington shall be
furnished with something very nice
and that the former plans for the depot
are undergoing change.

Safe Clothing.

There is probably no cloth
ing-maker anywhere in the
world that is entitled to be
relied on so completely for
the quality of everything that
enters into clothing as Oak
Hall. 1t would be in bad
taste, at least, for us to say
this, if we hadn't a particular
ly clear demonstration of the
fact.
In the first place we make
clothing enough SO that we
can afford to watch what
goes into ito know what
it is made of. Is it too much
to say that we do know
In the second place every
thing we sell is liable to come
back to us, if found wanting
in any quality it ought to
have-worse than that ; it is
liable to come back if the
buyer has the least doubt
about the goodness of it.
Which is hardest to be-
lieve, that we make our cloth
ing safe, or that we take such
chances on anything but the
safest of everything?

LABOR TRoUBLHs,-Troubles have
arisen in various sections of the coun-
try north Of Delaware, occasioned by
numerous strikes for wages by opera
tiyes in mills and mechanics of various
branches of industry but 80 far in
Delaware very little difficulty has
been felt from this source. In one or
two instances during the past week
the bricklayers or plasterers have stop
ped work and demanded higher wages;
but nothing that has amounted strike
has taken place, as we learn those who
were good workmen had their wages
raised. This has been the case in
Wilmington and hence little difficulty
has been occasioned. 1t is hoped that
while our mechanics and laboring
people will be paid good wages and
kept in constant employment efforts
will be made by both the employe
and employers to avoid "strikes" and
the suspension of labor. In the main
the employee is the loser on such oc-
casions. The boast of our country is
In the solid and substantial character
Of its laboring population. In intelli-
gcnce they excel every other country
on the globe, and in industry they
cannot be equalled. An American
mechanic ought to be the equal of
any other man, and it is impossible
for him to keep his family and rear
his children until properly educated
unless he is paid good wages. In re-
turn he is ready, or ought to be, to do
. large days work and thus help to
enable his employer to compete with
European builders, of whatsoever
kind. This country has been remarka-
BILE for paying high wages. This must
have been 80 or immigrants would not
have, for 90 many years, sought our
shores. The paying OF good wages for
q good days work, therefore, must
have proved beneficial or the country
could not have prospered and grow I
as it has done, excelfing in al
that Ia most valuable all othe
countries. There are other causes t
be sure that helped our growth, sue
as the mild form Of our government
and its basis upon the SURFACES of til
people. But the fact that the hun
dreds Of thousands Of the people c
Europe come to this country ever
year, and do better than they coul
90 at their former homes, and renal
'i'ere ana rear and educate childre
who occupy not unfrequently some @
The highest and best positions in til
land is proof enough that the laborel
af the country have always been bel
ter paid than the laborers of any 9th
country. And it ought to be our boa
vat while our laboring people are u
teesi and happiest they are also Il
oest paid and most independent.
TACT our pc Jalation is composed
laboring people--for In the main o.
those that labor succeed. There m
be exceptions but they are few. II
rule holds good whether applied to t
professional, scientific or mercant
classes. All who would succeed mu
labor. Labor is honorable, and MI
be profitable, since We have grown
no other nation has grown in veal
: intelligence and all that tends to ma
men better and happier. Wilmingt
is very hive of industry--it is
workshop and no man need hope
succeed here unless he makes up
mind to labor. And hence our pee
are not excelled in healthfulness
prosperity by the people of any (
in the country.
