PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRACY!

Our genial friend and fellow sol
der. ,Jastremski, is certainly above
the old stale and usedout argument
that. because we don't believe in free
trade or tariff for revenue only, we
| do so from interested motives, or be-
cause we are "golng over to the Re
publicans.
The discussion of these "articles of
faith is far removed from such logic
as that; and besides, the day has pass
ed. we are glad to say, when intel
lectual political questions can be an,
swered by charging desertion. What
constitutes Democratic principles, is
for future discussion, and that with
calmness and patriotism. If our IN
terest as community, is to be en-
HANGED by such doctrines as Sam Ran
dali and Sam Cox insist upon, no
public funds for public rivers and free
trade-well and good. But we must
arrive at the solution through discreet
discussion and sound logic. There
fore the ''Departing Vindicator0 ar
pnment does not nor will not meet
the question, and we much prefer to

y craft than be among those who "nev-

Il seems that President Garfield
will adhere to the old doctrine, that
..to the victor belongs the spoils.' he
will appoint to office none but dyed
iu-the-wool Republicans. The "good
mem in the South, who were ready
to "accept the situation" and give his
administration "a hearty support,
will have to serve a term of probation
before they are allowed to "eat chick
an ME with the boys" at the Republi
san trough. Bully for Garfield!

A RAILROAD SALE.

THE MILFORD 4 BAY SHORE CHAR
TER SOLD TO THE PENNA. II. II.
From the Dover Sentinel.
On Tuesday the Directors, or
portion of them, of the Milford and
Bay Shore Railroad Company met
in this town, and, after a short ses
sion, the stock of the road was sold
to Mr.. Cassett of the Pennsylvania
road. The Board of Directors resign.
ed aud their places were filled by
friends of Mr.. Cassett, consisting of
NJ. Hayes, G. V. Massey, DIR. 1.
II. b. Fiddeman, and three gentle
men from Philadelphia. Governor
Hall, who was president Of the old
Beard of Directors, resigned, and
NJ. Hayes is now president of rail-
road. This road has been a blg
thing on paper to two persons
namely, c. II. b. Day and Geo. b.
Dickson. The charter was granted
March %, 1871, for the purpose of
building a road from Milford north,
running along the Bay side, with
the privilege of running all the way
up the State or joining any other
road at any point in the State
When the corporators met for the
purpose Of affecting an organization,
$500 shares of the stock had TO be
subscribed for before the organiza-
ton could be completed.
The shares represented S25 each 500
shares were taken by numerous parties,
none Of them holding over five shares,
each, when Messrs. Day and Dickson,
who we're the Vanderbilt and Gould
of the Company promptly subscribed for
1000 shares each. Not dollar was ever
paid in by any Of the subscribers. In
1873, supplement to the charter was
| granted changing the corporators and in
creasing the number. Whether any ether
meeting but the one was ever held be
| fore the sale Of the road was effected we
do not know, but judge not. The road
has lain from that time until the Winter
when the Delaware Western stirred up
railroad matters IL. this State. When the
Pennsylvania desired TO get control Of
the charter, 1t found It virtually owned
by Messrs. Day and Dickson, and arrange
ments were entered into with them to
purchase the stock, which succeeded, and
the Board was changed as stated above
Day and Dickson receiving $500 apiece,
and transferring their interest TO Mr.. Gas
sati; the Pennsylvania agreeing before
The sale was effected to build the road
from Dover 20 Milford in TWO years.
The Frederick people were interested
in getting railroad, and when they
found they could accomplish the purpose
y the transfer Of this road they went IN
Tor il strong. There is some talk on
the street thai an effort will be made by
sons Of the corpefators who were not
eoDsulted,to upset the sale on the ground
Of its illegality. Judge Dickson say he
would like TO see any one get his money
back. The Judge says that he has another
road for sale--the Delaware Central,
that runs from Mahon's river TO NJ arydel /;
that he is Secretary and Treasurer; that
that the road has a surplus ia bank of
$ll.06 andno bonded debt. He is quietly
buying up the stock owned by other
persons.

A very ingenious and simple method
Of subdlviding the electric light has just
been effected by Mr.. J. BAuting Rogers,
of st. Clements. House, Lombard street.

radiate the main limbs, which again bear
branches, from which in turn shoot the

capable Of eflecting eighteen divisions of
the main current, although only one
wire MAS used In the experiment, that
being sufficient to illustrate the prnci-
pie.
This single wire was carried fIom
each of the two accumulaling boxes 20
a dividing box, and flom this box
again eight pairs of wires could have
been led TO eight other boxes for the
further subdivision of the current, but
five pairs were considered sufficient.
These Eve pairs of wires were led to
five other boxes, one pair to each,
where the current was further subdi-
vided. From these boxes it was stated
that no fewer than twenty eight cir
Quits could have been rmed had the
battery power been sufficient. but as il
